Hypocrisy thy name is Columbia University

By Ethel C. Fenig

A day after a speaker spouted "death to Israel" while distorting and denying historical evidence regarding Jews, Columbia University's protesting students chanted "no diversity, no university" and confronted university officials at two emotional meetings. The police said that their hate crimes unit had mounted a full investigation, including testing those who invited him for psychological fitness.

Baffled and anguished students and professors wondered how this could happen at Columbia, which cherishes its image as a bastion of liberalism and multiculturalism.

Whoops! Sorry. My aging eyes and memory apparently aren't quite as reliable as formerly. Apparently this is what really occurred.

A day after a noose was found hanging on a black professor's office door at Columbia University's Teachers College, protesting students chanted "no diversity, no university" and confronted university officials at two emotional meetings. The police said that their hate crimes unit had mounted a full investigation, including testing the rope for DNA. (snip)

Baffled and anguished students and professors wondered how this could happen at Teachers College, which cherishes its image as a bastion of liberalism and multiculturalism.

Whether a copycat hate act like the so-called Jena Six or a nasty trick by some students to foment racial strife on campus to prove there is racial strife on campus as done some perverted students at George Washington University, freedom of expression, including academic expression, be damned; some forms of expression are so evil that they should be banned among civilized people while those that engage in them should be punished.

That Columbia University and its community of camp followers condemned the noose incident (rightly) while inviting and pervertedly justifying Ahmadi Nejad's appearance (oh so wrongly) indicates that they basically approve of another genocide against Jews. And no high falutin' ivory tower academese can prove otherwise.
