Canadian Universities ban “Israel Apartheid” poster

February 27th, 2009 at 2:02 am

It seems that at least two Universities in Canada have banned a poster with a drawing depicting a gunship with the word “Israel” on it firing a missile at a young boy.

To my mind, a college campus can ban no poster on the basis of its content and still claim to promote a free-thinking environment.  Even if this poster is a little over-the-top, there is no reason for a ban.  If it’s really that offensive, other students will ensure that it is removed.  After all, it’s college!
