Academics complain of covert boycott of higher education in Israelwitter

Israel is experiencing a “dormant boycott” by academics, Council of University Heads president Prof. Menachem Ben-Sasson said Wednesday, addressing a Knesset Education Committee meeting on academic boycotts.
“Universities are not boycotting and major researchers are here on the scene, but there is a phenomenon of a ‘dormant boycott,’ he said, and called on the government to budget funds to bring international researchers and students to Israel to increase cooperation with academia from around the world.
