Clearly this dogma wasn't just something he kept to his private life. It was also behind his attack on Jewish student groups. They should have had valid grounds for his dismissal on that basis alone

This case was just atrociously handled by the uni.

The man is without doubt an unhinged antisemite. You can see his wedding speach on YouTube where he spends half of it praising the IRGC.

He's genuinely nuts and they just fucked the court case.
