Open letter on the case of Lara Alqasem, denied a visa to study in Israel (UPDATED)

MOVING TO FRONT FROM OCTOBER 12--UPDATED

Philosopher David Enoch (Hebrew U) asked me to share this open letter (written by him, Tamar Hess, and Amos Goldberg), which I am glad to do:  Download Letter to International Colleagues Lara AlQassem3

Note that the letter includes concrete suggestions that concerned citizens elsewhere can take to put pressure on Israel to reverse its decision.

UPDATE:  Some good news, the Israeli Supreme Court has acceoted Ms. Alqsem's appeal of her exclusion and will permit her to enter Israel.  (Thanks to David Enoch for the update.)
