The Jerusalem Post reports: Ruhr University Bochum – one of Germany’s largest public academic institutions—is slated to hold a Boycott, Sanctions, Divestment (BDS) lecture targeting the Jewish state from a Palestinian official.

The news website Ruhrbarone first reported on Friday on the BDS event with the headline “Advertisement for Jewish Boycott on the Ruhr University.”

According to the website Bochum Alternative, the invitation states that Salah Al-Khawaja, a member of the executive committee of the Palestinian National Committee BDS, will speak on “Palestinian civil resistance against the Israeli occupation power and settler politics as well as the Stop the Wall and BDS campaigns.”
