Israel propagandist Alan Dershowitz protested in Qatar | 5 March 2018 |

Dershowitz, for decades a Harvard law professor, is one of the most prominent pro-Israel propagandists in the United States. He has a long record of justifying attacks on Palestinians, including accusing them of using their children as "human shields" so they can be killed in order to embarrass Israel.

Dershowitz has attacked President Barack Obama for refusing to veto a December 2016 UN Security Council resolution condemning Israel's settlements in the occupied West Bank.

He also urged Donald Trump to officially recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and move the US embassy there - steps Obama's successor in the White House took in the face of global opposition and condemnation.

Dershowitz's lecture, titled "Law and Media," was held at the Northwestern University Qatar campus.

The event was not publicized and was only announced through an email to students at Education City, a vast campus housing that Qatar franchises of half a dozen prestigious US universities - Northwestern, Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, Georgetown, Texas A&M and Virginia Commonwealth - and several European institutions.

US Joe Biden Partners with Israel in Gaza Carnage

Happened before during the Bush and Obama administration. Shipping arms and munitions to replenish stocks used by Israel to crush the Palestinian people in Gaza. Unconscionable ... immoral ... equates to war crimes and/or complicit to bombing civilians. The United States will live with impunity, Israeli leaders will be judged by the International Criminal Court in The Hague. The White House and U.S. Congress will always stand by Israel to avoid prosecution.
