This is the moment when Israeli Arab Yoseph Haddad was thrown out of the Oxford Union after people stamped on the photo of Israeli Arabs who are being held hostage.

This is what he writes:

‘I’ll tell you more about what happened at Oxford when I confronted these liars and I’ll also upload clips from my speech there, but one thing I can say for sure – Oxford has been taken over by terror supporters.
90% of the participants are clearly anti-Israel propagandists who admire Nasrallah and Sinwar and believe Israel has no right to exist.
During the biased discussion, extreme statements flew such as praising and glorifying the October 7th massacre and claims that it was a “heroic act of an oppressed people.”
When a speaker in the audience cried for the residents of Gaza in a forced and unbelievable way, I pulled out a picture of the Muslim hostages Yousef and Hamza al-Ziyadna and asked if she was crying for them too.
One of the participants in the audience took the picture and threw it on the floor and others stepped on it. I endured curses, boos, and threats during the confrontation, but there was one thing I was not willing to endure: the humiliation of our hostages.
I demanded that they be removed and I refused to continue the discussion, even when the anti-Israel chairman, who actually took part in the confrontation himself, warned me and finally decided to have me removed from the venue.
In front of the hostile terrorist-supporting audience, just before I left the hall, I did one last thing – over my official tuxedo, I wore a T-shirt that I had brought. It has a picture of Nasrallah with a large X over it and the caption "Your ‘heroic’ terrorist is dead, we killed him"

The debate was “This House Believes Israel is an Apartheid State Responsible for Genocide.” The motion passed 278:59 in favour.

Arguing in favor of Israel were British lawyer Natasha Hausdorff, British journalist Jonathan Sacerdoti, Arab-Israeli activist Yoseph Haddad and ex-Hamas member turned Israeli spy Mosab Hassan Yousef.

On the other side of the debate were US political scientist and anti-Israel activist Norman Finkelstein, Israeli-American activist and author Miko Peled, Palestinian-American author Susan Abulhawa, and Palestinian writer Mohammed El-Kurd.

The debate devolved into a shouting match between the speakers and the audience at one point, and Haddad was removed from the stage after a verbal altercation with attendees.

Norman Finkelstein, ffs. Author of The Holocaust Industry, on how Jews exploit the Holocaust for political and financial gain….

Added: Finkelstein dropped out and didn't attend.
