FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda 
(JNS) The Lawfare Project is urging Zoom and the University of California, Merced, to cancel an upcoming event featuring Palestinian terrorist Leila Khaled.
The event, titled “Free Speech and Palestine,” is scheduled to take place on April 23 at noon Pacific Time, and is being co-sponsored by San Francisco State University’s Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas Studies (AMED), as well as the University of California Humanities Research Institute. It will be hosted by UC Merced’s Zoom account and moderated by UC Merced professor Sean Malloy.
Khaled played a critical role in two airplane hijackings in 1969 and 1970 as a member of the U.S.-designated terrorist organization the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The Israeli Shin Bet considers her part of the Jordanian command of the PFLP.
Last September, Zoom canceled an event also featuring Khaled hosted by the San Francisco State University’s AMED after the Lawfare Project informed the company that permitting Khaled to use its platform wouldviolate federal law. Additionally, some 90 Jewish and pro-Israel groups also urged SFSU president Lynn Mahoney to cancel the event, who repeatedly defended the event by invoking freedom of expression.
According to an Eventbrite page advertising the April 23 discussion, the event will” explore a set of questions that center Palestine at the heart of discussion on free speech and academic freedom.” It particular, the event appears to explore why the original September 2020 discussion was shutdown and seeks to explore questions “around censorship, free speech, and the role of corporations like Zoom on university campuses, how can we center the voices of Palestinians and of oppressed peoples?”
As of publication, registration for the Zoom event remains live.
“San Francisco State University is once again sponsoring a webinar featuring notorious plane hijacker and PFLP terrorist Leila Khaled, this time in partnership with UC Merced,” Brooke Goldstein, executive director of the Lawfare Project, told JNS.
“Just as we did with SFSU’s previous attempt to host Khaled, The Lawfare Project has notified Zoom and trusts them to continue to comply with the law and their own Terms of Service by refusing to provide material support—here, in the form of its video conferencing service—to a member of a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, as is prohibited by 18 U.S.C. § 2339B.”
