"The illegal Israeli academic institution, Ariel University, deep inside the West Bank, calls on people from all around the world to come study the art of being a propagandist for a genocidal, apartheid ethno-state. Meanwhile, Palestinians in towns around Ariel are increasingly unable to move freely, as roadblocks continue to spread across the West Bank. This clip is from the Instagram account of Ariel University's School of Communications." - Source

Archivist Notes On This Video

Ariel University is located in the settlement city of Ariel, in the northern occupied West Bank, about 40 km (25 miles) east of Tel Aviv and southwest of Nablus.

It is the only Israeli university situated deep inside the West Bank and considered occupied territory under international law. Established as a college in 1982, it became a full-fledged university in 2012. Its location in an illegal settlement makes it highly controversial, with most of the international community not recognizing it as a legitimate Israeli institution.
