Antisemitic posters linking Israel to 9/11 have been put up on Bournemouth Uni campus

Poole – Antisemitic posters have been found glued on walls in the toilets of Poole House today.

A student found the posters in the toilets and posted them to Facebook, branding it as “disgusting antisemitism at Bournemouth University”.

One poster appears to blame Israel for the 9/11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York.

In comments made on the Facebook post, other students said the posters were “disgusting”, “racist and vile” and urged the student to report them to the Community Security Trust. Others questioned if there might be CCTV in the corridor leading to the toilets.

Since the posters were outed online, SUBU President Daniel Asaya said:

“Sending solidarity to our Jewish students who have had to experience such blatant antisemitism on our toilet walls today. These disgusting stickers have now been taken down and I have contacted Bournemouth University for them to commence investigations and take action.

“I’ve also spoken with the President of our Jewish Society and will be having a meeting next week to take this further.

“No group or individual should feel intimidated or bullied whilst at University and SUBU will continue to condemn and fight against antisemitism, bullying and discrimination in all its forms.”
