Lecturer for the University of Sydney arrested for harassing Jewish students and staffers during Sukkot holiday after being fired a day after the Bondi Beach massacre.By World Israel News StaffAn Australian university lecturer who was fired recently over her harassment of Jewish students and staffers celebrating a Jewish holiday in October has been arrested and indicted for the antisemitic incident.On October 9th, Dr. Rose Nakad, a 53-year-old communications lecturer at the University of Sydney, was filmed harassing Jewish students and staff members at an event on campus marking the Jewish Sukkot festival.During the incident, Nakad cursed the students and staff members, calling them “parasites” and “depraved.” Nakad also spat at them repeatedly.“A Zionist is the lowest form of rubbish,” Nakad said during the encounter, calling one person a “disgusting baby killer.”While the attendees of the event emphasized that it was non-political, Nakad can be seen in the video repeatedly demanding to know if one woman identifies as “a Zionist.”“In your name they’re shredding children bit to bit,” Nakad continued. “You should be making it stop.”“Christian Zionists are the most disgusting thing that has ever walked this earth,” Nakad shouted at one point.Immediately afterwards, university administrators said they would investigate the incident.“A formal process to respond to the incident is now well underway. This includes further assessment of the incident and consideration of relevant information,” said senior deputy vice chancellor and provost Annamarie Jagose in October.Last week, in the wake of the Bondi Beach massacre in which 15 Jews were murdered during a Chanukah celebration in Sydney, the university announced that it had terminated Nakad.“This decision followed careful consideration in line with our clear expectations of behavior and our obligation to make sure our campuses are safe and welcoming for all,” the university said.“Hate speech, antisemitism, and harassment have no place at our university and when our codes of conduct are breached we do not hesitate to take disciplinary action.”On Monday, police arrested Nakad in connection with the October 9th incident, charging her with two counts of stalking or intimidation, and one count of offensive conduct.Nakad was later released on bail, and is slated to appear in court in February.The post Australian university lecturer arrested after calling Jewish students ‘parasites’ appeared first on World Israel News.
