Abstract

The article discusses the concept of "safe spaces" on university campuses and praises Vanderbilt University for promoting free speech and civil discourse. The author argues that safe spaces should encourage respectful disagreement, rather than silencing opposing voices. The article also mentions the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) movement, which aims to end Israel's current policies towards Palestinians. While the author believes that BDS seeks to destroy Israel, they argue that Israel has made efforts to limit civilian casualties in difficult urban warfare situations. The author questions why Israel is the target of a BDS campaign while other countries involved in conflicts with high casualties are not. [Extracted from the article]
