The largest chunk of that article that I could find was on this blog:

Globe & Mail

“The faculty of York University’s film school has taken the unusual step of criticizing its own staff member, John Greyson, over his continuing campaign to promote a cultural boycott of Israel.

It was Greyson who precipitated last fall’s controversy at the Toronto International Film Festival when he withdrew his own short documentary film from the lineup, in protest of the Festival’s decision to spotlight a series of films about Tel Aviv. Now, Greyson, an associate professor of production, is spearheading a new drive to boycott the Tel Aviv University International Student Film Festival, scheduled for the spring, and it’s this one that has irked his colleagues at York. Last month, in letters to 90 film schools soliciting support for his position, Greyson attached the names of director James Cameron (Avatar) and actress Jane Fonda implying that they supported the campaign.

However, neither Cameron nor Fonda had been asked to sign on to this open letter. “

It might have been removed because the letter was never sent with the names of Cameron and Fonda attached. That was a “draft letter” sent, from what I understand, to potential signatories as examples of the types of people who would sign on. The final letter that was apparently sent to film schools did not mention Fonda or Cameron from what I’ve read.

Hmmm… censorship in action?

I can see the campaign already:

Seeing as how most of these idiots aren’t too bothered with details, and things like historical or geographical facts tend to elude them, I’m pretty sure we’ll make a killing.

Heck we can even promise to donate 10% of our proceeds back to the community (I’ve always had a soft spot for the “Land Rights for Gay Jewish Whales” movement…)

interesting but no, am not from gaza way too far from it. And ‘middle’ if i was a NAZI trust me you would know about it. The only thing i dont seem to understand is why your reply’s are all defensive and provocativley rude i mean if they are a forgery fair enough i dont care so why call me a moron or a nazi, am not sure you understand ‘middle’ if it was’nt for my country you jews wouldn’t have got very far in the world and even if this shity little book was for real 3 quarters of it would have been achieved because of my country and u knw dat.

But as alaways you did what all jews do best and avoided the question and made me look like the aggressor. I will put it to you again. Why if the book is a forgery, everythin that was stated init is in motion now and bieng achieved as they said they would.

By the way, nothing changes. You didn’t know this book was a forgery and yet here you are extolling its virtues. Either you’re like a Nazi or you’re a moron. Or you’re both. My bet is on both. I mean, the book’s not even that old, relatively speaking, and yet you not only believe it, you come into an unrelated discussion to sell it.

Actually, maybe you’re not a Nazi. You could just be one of the citizens of Gaza educated and influenced by their government, Hamas, which has the Protocols mentioned in their Charter. In that case, don’t worry too much, you have a bunch of useful North American and European propagandists supporting you even as they ignore the same fundamentalist beliefs that cause you to hate them just as much as Israel and Jews. And queer film festivals in Sarajevo.

It’s symptomatic of a more general problem with certain American and Canadian leftists: they falsely believe that their leftist/rightist politics is the whole world’s leftist/rightist politics. Since US Republicans are the traditionally pro-military party, and Israelis strongly support their military, then therefore Israelis must be opposed to universal health care, are anti-union, are anti-LGBT rights, etc. It’s a convenient assumption for guys like Greyson to make, no matter how wrong it is, because it fits his own political worldview so nicely without having to make any additional effort to really understand the issues at hand. It’s pretty easy to be so smug when you self-confine yourself to ignorance (and shouldn’t Greyson know that, I mean, isn’t public ignorance the main obstacle in the fight for LGBT rights?)
