The De Anza Jewish community celebrated Israeli Independence Day on Tuesday in the main quad. During the event there was a Krav Maga demonstration. There was also information on the MASA program.
Krav Maga is Israeli selfdefense that is widely used throughout the world. MASA is a program for young Jewish students who want to experience Israel for a year.
Not all students shared the festive mood of the day. While Israeli music was playing, a student came to the table and said, "Is this what you listen to when you're killing innocent Palestinians?"
No other similar incidents were reported.
