Online database 'exposes' pro-Palestinian college students in bid to block future jobs

Haaretz

Good luck to anyone trying to make a decent living if you've ever stated that you believe that Israel should back off Palestine and it's people.

Canary Website keeps backers' identities hidden, calls on activists to 'ensure that today's radicals are not tomorrow's employees.'

A new website is publicizing the identities of pro-Palestinian student activists to prevent them from getting jobs after they graduate from college. But the website is keeping its own backers’ identity a secret.

“It is your duty to ensure that today’s radicals are not tomorrow’s employees,” a female narrator intones in a slick video posted to the website’s YouTube account.

Called Canary Mission, the site has posted profiles of dozens of students and recent graduates, alongside those of well-known activists like Omar Barghouti, founder of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement. Some of the students are active in Students for Justice in Palestine; others were involved in recent pro-BDS resolutions at campuses in California. Many of them have relatively thin activist résumés.

They even have a youtube video.



...WTF?

Free speech and free opinion will cost you your future job.
I bet once the hackers see this they are doomed and that database will be worth #.

This is sickening.

I was surprised to see they allowed comments on the video. Seems like most of the people commenting on it were wise to the fact that this is such a stupid idea. I bet some of the youtubers are now on their list.

Have a different opinion than canary mission?

They'll post all your info online.

That's pretty bad. Most people here in the US that support Palestinians, don't support Hamas, but support the people there and their right to education and the basics of survival such as food, medicine, shelter, electricity and water. Even more than that we want to give them hope that they and their children or grandchildren might someday not be oppressed by an apartheid government.

These people, myself included, abhor violence and terrorism and want peace.

So where do they draw the line? I can see that woman yelling about getting a big oven. That's radical and extreme and hateful, but if you support Boycott, divest and sanction, is that the same thing to them?

Spewing hate from liberal universities will have consequences? The pro terror infiltrators forgot to teach their students that part.

The irony being you could spew anti-islamic/muslim hate and be just fine?

No, you would instantly be labeled a profiler and never get a job again much less pass your classes to get a degree.

Today's radicals are tomorrow's professors so maybe this will simply end up being free publicity for them.

How many of the college professors today were planting nail bombs in the 70's?

The cycle simply repeats itself and the education system decays from within.

Blame Bush

Is BDS a radical stance though?

a reply to: amazing

Right wingers when it comes to Israel insist that there is no other position to have other than with Israel or with Hamas. It's ridiculous, only morons are incapable of seeing past two dimensions.

This is a straight-up Gestapo tactic. Funny, what the Zionist state has turned into.

a reply to: 200Plus

Perfect example of the simplistic mind needed to digest this stance.

... Or were you serious?

a reply to: Blackmarketeer

What do they call anti-zionist Jews, better yet... what do they call Jews that are pro-Palestine?

a reply to: Kali74

Funny, the tagline (in really tiny print) at the bottom of their homepage reads:

We respect your privacy.

Yeah, right. *eyeroll*

So you cannot be responsible for what you say and you have to hide what you think in order to get hired.

*shakes fist at website illustrating what people actually believe*

a reply to: Kali74

It's a simplistic fight and a simplistic tactic (made for simple minds).

One side hides it's face while exposing the "enemy" and one side eats it up while the other cries foul.

In today's political climate a "quid pro quo" tactic against Canary will have little to no effect. What is the penalty for being pro-Israel?

The "war" has changed or is changing. Bullets and bombs are slowly changing into bytes and bitcoins. "Their" side won this round. It will be interesting to say the least to see where it goes from here.

Always blame Bush though

You get hired for a job not your political ideology.

True. Your qualifications should define you. So I have to wonder. . . what employers would base their hiring criteria on support for Israel or Palestine?

That actually never came up in my job interviews.

a reply to: Kali74

I believe Palestine should be a state.

But I also believe employers should be able to hire whoever in the hell they want. Or do you agree that criminal record searchs and and credit checks should be banned from a employers review history?
