Updated 2:25 pm Friday with statement from UTA.

A furtive watchdog website has published a report citing anti-Semitic comments by students at the University of Texas-Arlington as part of its ongoing scrutiny of such statements nationwide, particularly on college campuses.

The report from Canary Mission said 24 current and recent UTA students, in social-media posts dating to 2012, had made remarks supporting Hitler and/or the Holocaust, comparing Israel to Nazi Germany or supporting violence against Jews or their supporters.

The site said 19 of those students were affiliated with the UTA chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine, calling the group "a focal point for campus anti-Semitism." Twelve were also members of the Muslim Students Association, it said.

The report cited 158 anti-Semitic posts on social media and interaction by the individuals involved with "anti-Semitic individuals" from other Texas schools. Of particular concern, it said, was a UTA student activist and her brother, a Tarrant Community College student, who in addition to anti-Semitic posts are cousins of a man who plotted a Tel Aviv bus bombing in 2012.

Among the social-media comments highlighted by the site were "let's stuff some Jews in the oven" and "R u a jew - I kill them" as well as retweets by students of anti-Semitic riddles, such as "How many Jews died in the Holocaust?" The answer: "Not enough."

According to its Facebook page, SJP is an organization "dedicated to bringing justice to the victims of the Israeli Palestinian conflict."

A statement issued by UT-Arlington Friday said: "As one of the most diverse campuses in the nation, inclusion and respect are at the very core of the values of The University of Texas at Arlington. UTA condemns statements of hate while acknowledging the principles of free speech and open expression. We welcome and encourage the sharing of ideas, thoughts and opinions, but we also expect respect and civility from students, faculty and staff."

Canary Mission has been criticized for publicly calling out pro-Palestinian college activists while not being transparent about the identity of its own staff or backers.

"Despite its dedication to documenting the identities of pro-Palestinian activists, Canary Mission seems to have gone to great lengths to keep the identities of its own members and backers well hidden," staff writer Josh Nathan-Kazis wrote in The Forward. He also said the site's web domain registration does not identify its owners and that Canary Mission is not listed by the IRS as tax-deductible-donation-eligible despite its description as a non-profit organization.

Others say the site broadly shames pro-Palestinian student activists for exercising their right to express themselves.

"The focus on young people and students is an effort to try to tell people that there will be a price for you taking a political position," Ali Abunimah, founder of pro-Palestinian website The Electronic Intifada, told The Forward. "It's an effort to punish and deter people from standing up for what they believe."

UTA is the second Texas university to be scrutinized by the site, which last month posted its report on the University of Houston.

Neither UTA nor the school's SJP chapter had an immediate comment on the report.
