I was recently invited to present the liberal case for
Israel at Berkeley. In my remarks I advocated the establishment of a
Palestinian state and a negotiated end of the conflict. I encouraged
hostile questions from protestors and answered all of them. The
audience responded positively to the dialogue.
Then immediately after my address, a poster was
plastered outside Berkeley Law School with a swastika drawn on my
face.
The Dean of Berkeley Law School, Erwin Cherwinsky,
sent a letter condemning the swastika: "Several of our students
expressed their disagreement with him [Dershowitz] and did so in a
completely appropriate way that led to discussion and dialogue. I was
pleased to hear of how this went, but then shocked to learn of the
swastika drawn on a flyer that someone had posted about him."
