UK group targets Kuwaiti researcher over Palestine support
The Kuwaiti researcher Abdullah Alângari, a specialist in Palestinian studies at Exeter University and a lecturer at London University, faced a campaign of incitement from the "Campaign Against Antisemitism" (CAA) organization in the United Kingdom. They accused him of "extremism" and violating the definition of "antisemitism." The organization claimed to have uncovered posts by him that contained "incitement" and conflicted with the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition, accusing him of denying the right to self-determination and glorifying violence associated with terrorist organizations. Alângari denied the allegations, describing the campaign as misleading and unfair, reaffirming his commitment to anti-racism principles and his defense of Palestinian rights. The campaign sparked a wave of Arab solidarity, with activists viewing it as a form of "intellectual terrorism" and an attempt to silence voices opposing Israeli violations, considering these measures a threat to academic freedom and a move to suppress discussions about Palestinian rights.
