Letter: Is woke propaganda the norm at U of A?

Charles Smith's letter of 5/15 is both silly and dangerous. Silly accusations against the Tucson police department, as if it were a branch of the Tel Aviv police. The emeritus prof tries to taint our police by saying they trained in Israel. I trust the Tucson police, whether they had training in Israel or not. The dangerous part of his propaganda is the false charge of Israel using rubber bullets against peaceful protesters. The peaceful protesters the professor noted "used more than 3,600 Molotov cocktail attacks, 100 hand grenade attacks and 600 assaults with guns or explosives during the first intifada" alone. That is in addition to 160 suicide bombing carried out by Palestinians. The shame here is propaganda coming from a professor teaching our young at a public institution. Finally, he makes it sound as Israel developed rubber bullets, that honor goes to the English, using 120,000 against Irish protesters during the Troubles. Where was your outrage then Mr. Smith.
