#4  Follow the money.
The UK academic community is highly dependent on grants, fellowships, and general donations from Muslims, both immigrants and foreigners. These donors always attach strings, spoken or not, and every British academic who is honest will admit this, if only in private. This means the academic community in the broadest sense: museums, journals, and even freelance authors know that speaking up for Israel will eventually reduce their income and opportunities.

#3  Nais in white gloves. Don't expect any of them to say or do anyhthing about the genocide in Soudan; they don't want to exterminate Jews so they don't( intesrest those people.

After WWI it was ver politically incorrect to be an antisemite and still more to be an antisemite of the genocidical variant so antisemites hid behind the "Palestinain cause".

#2  publish their names and ban the membership from entering the eeeeevil US as well, after all, they wouldn't want to travel to the zionist-controlled neocon empire, so it shouldn't be an issue, right?

#1  The IAB reports that less than a month ago, the editors of the TSA/TBS translation study series in Great Britain publicized an offer for articles to be sent to them. Prof. Miriam Shlesinger, head of Bar Ilan's Translation and Translation Research Department, who herself had contributed an article to TSA/TBS in 2001, asked the organization if it would be willing to accept articles from Israeli academics. The answer: "From Israelis, yes - but not from Israeli institutions."

Because they aren't antisemites. Unmentioned is the fact they won't accept articles from suspected Israelis either, unless such state they abhore Israel and its eeeeeeevil actions.
