An imam invited to speak by the anti-Israel group “Students for Justice in Palestine” at Columbia University was recently caught on video urging the students to “take out” Israeli professor Shai Davidai.

“I would get him in trouble,” the imam, Tom Facchine, said. “What are the ways in which his professorship is tenuous or in jeopardy? How to create a situation in which he’s in jeopardy?”

“This is what the Zionists do…that might silence a hundred other professors. If you’re able to take out someone like that and make an example, that might shut up a hundred more.”

“Students for ‘Justice’ in Palestine at Columbia invited an imam who instructed them to target me and “create a situation” that gets me in trouble,” Davidai tweeted in response.

Addressing Columbia University, Davidai asked, “Are you OK with a pro-terror student organization inviting a Hamas-supporting imam that’s telling students to ‘take out’ one of your Jewish professors?”
