Dozens gathered on Ho Plaza Wednesday as Students for Justice in Palestine staged a rally protesting the University’s ties with the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, which culminated in a shouting match among some participants.
The rally, which began around 1 p.m., featured students dressed up as Israeli Defense Forces shoving and searching other student actors in order to represent checkpoints on the West Bank. According to an SJP statement , students also held up banners representing the wall “that Israel built to separate itself from the Palestinians.”
