Israel Prize Laureate Professor David Shulman announced this week that the NIS 75,000 award money he receives with the Israel Prize would be donated to the Taayush organization which assists Palestinians in the S. Hebron Hills area. Shulman has been an active member of the organization and he therefore made the decision to donate the prize money to assist its efforts. Shulman was awarded the prestigious prize this Independence Day for his work in the area of Indian languages and culture.
According to the Taayush website, it is an organization of “Israelis and Palestinians striving together to end the Israeli occupation and to achieve full civil equality through daily non-violent direct-action”.
The experts report that Prof. Shulman is viewed as a leading world expert on Sanskrit and S. India. In Israel, he is also known for his dedication as a leading left-wing activist.
Shulman admitted that he deliberated if he would accept the award and then decided to give the money to Taayush, describing what he calls “the general deterioration of the situation along with the witch hunt against Taayush, peace & human rights activists by a right-wing establishment which is determined to perpetuate the occupation.”

Its like Golda Meir once said, we can have peace with the arabs when they love their children more than they hate us. Nothing has changed, we still have traitors among us.
Avinu shebashamayim… please take us out of golus immediately. Look how the long exile has taken away our brother- the professor’s sanity….
Pure evil!!!
Please remove his picture
Why doesn’t he just buy some katysha rockets and give it to them directly? Or perhaps he should convert to Islam. At least he’d be consistent.
A Jewish Benedict Arnold. More money for the Arabs to buy weapons and knives to attack Jews.
So that’s where Groucho went after he retired from show business!
The Jewish people are Hated because the אומות העולם are Jealous of OUR Exalted Stature and Eternal Destiny. This unfortunate professor denies this Reality so he can’t make any sense out of the endless animosity.
What a sick puppy.
I am nauseated.
