Sydney University's Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies has got to be the oxymoron of the year. If there is a nation that needs peace and its conflict studied, it is Israel. Is the centre boycotting other nations in conflict and seeking peace?

The action of Jake Lynch has shown him to be motivated more by ideology and politics rather than any real desire for peace and harmony between Israel and Palestine.
