To understand how academic institutions in Israel deal with "embarrassing" professors, one need only look at the experiences of Ilan Pappe. He was exiled from Haifa University simply because he came to the defense of a master's thesis (not even his own student) that pointed out the massacre in Tantura (1948). Pappe was called a traitor and an enemy of the people.
