it's been accused of creating a hostile climate for jewish students by conflating include the criticisms of israel and make it equal to you know anti semitism they're trying to censor only the freedom bit here in the u.s. when it comes to the israeli policies donald trump is a. basically back this year since taking office the u.s. embassy to jerusalem in the face of international opposition and recognize the golan heights territory seized in syria as part of israel but he's been accused of making anti semitic remarks and defending unite says he chanted anti jewish slogans he was criticized for comments made in a speech to jewish groups in florida at the weekend reinforcing jewish stereotypes bloody you're the real estate business because i know you very well you're brutal killers not nice people at all but you have to vote for many of the jurors you're not going to vote for pocahontas like and. many jewish groups of praise the president's action u.s.
