Dershowitz: Faculty Encourage Islamic Terrorism Crisis at Columbia
(New York Sun) Jacob Greshman - Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, speaking Monday at Columbia University, said: "This is the most unbalanced university that I have come across when it comes to all sides of the Middle East conflict being presented." "The kind of hatred that one hears on campuses like Columbia, and let me say especially Columbia, is a barrier to peace....They are encouraging the terrorists. They tell the terrorists you will have academic support even if you oppose the peace process." "Anybody who advocates for divesting only from the Jewish state...at a time when Iraq was posing a great threat to the world, when Iran was posing great threats...when China is oppressing millions of Tibetans, when the Kurds are still denied independence and statehood, to single out only Israel for divestiture at that point in time cannot be explained by neutral political, even ideological consideration." "I'm appalled at how many professors at Columbia University privately support Israel, and privately support many of the students, but are publicly afraid to speak out."
