UC BERKELEY SETTLES DISCRIMINATION LAWSUIT

By Bob Walsh

 

Professor Yael Nativ 

 

Regular readers will remember some weeks back I wrote about a discrimination lawsuit filed by an Israeli professor against U C Berkeley.  Even though the university's own internal investigation found that she had been illegally discriminated against the university refused to hire her.

The school pretty much admitted they refused to hire her to avoid pissing off the pro-Islamic terrorist contingent at the school.  This was shortly after a congressional hearing wherein Chancellor Rich Lyons praised a man as a "fine scholar" who openly opined that he wished he had been able to participate in the October 7 terror attack against Israel.

Right after the suit was actually filed the school pretty much caved.

The school is paying Professor Nativ $60,000 plus $56,000 in legal costs.  Plus they have promised to hire her at an unspecified future date and to issue a formal apology to her.

There is still another generalized lawsuit proceeding against UC Berkeley for taking no action to prevent widespread anti-Semitism on campus. That case is moving into the discovery phase.
