Mr Gove also used his speech to deride recent pro-Palestine university campus protests, questioning why there were not similar demonstrations against human rights atrocities in Syria, Burma, and China.The minister said no one had killed more Muslims than Syria's Bashar al-Assad in recent years.He attacked the 'boycott, divestment, sanctions' movement as 'explicitly anti-Semitic'.
