Princeton Hillel Cancels Appearance by Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister

The Jerusalem Post reports that the Princeton Hillel chapter has cancelled an appearance on campus by Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely (pictured below). This is truly a sad and disturbing story, which raises serious concerns about the commitment of Jewish college students to Israel. Fortunately, Ms. Hotovely will still speak at Princeton, but under the sponsorship and auspices of Chabad rather than Hillel. Shame on Rabbi Julie Roth, Executive Director of the Center for Jewish Life on Princeton’s campus, for caving in to the demands of these so-called "progressives."
