[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm going to defend the council members here.  Last year, the decision to boycott Israeli businesses was one of the most contentious issues on campus.  Her allegiance to various jewish groups suggest that she would feel a certain way on the boycott.  Entirely reasonable to ask whether her faith would guide her feelings on hot campus topics.

I'm just not seeing the "Jews can't be trusted!!!" stuff that you're seeing.[/quote]

Still, its only okay to ask this to her if the two Muslim students on the council were asked similar questions. Want to bet if the two muslim students were asked the same question, there would be hell to pay.  You cannot single out a single ethnicity/religion for discrimination. Despite having good qualifications, the sticking point she was voted off by the others because she did not think "in line" with them. Your defense does not stand. Straightforwardly, it is shocking that this was even considered okay.

If they had couched that it in the terms they were concerned activism may impair her decision making ability, that is another issue all together.[/quote]
