[Peace-discuss] Sunday News Gazette Letter to the Editor: AAUP lies on Salaita!

[Boyle, Francis A]

Several years ago when Norman was teaching at DePaul the Arab Law Students and I invited him to come down here and give an Address on the Middle East. I reserved the Law Auditorium for this event. Many Jewish Law Students publicly attacked Norman on the law school email system for being a "self-hating Jew." So in my Introduction of Norman to the audience I said something to the effect that Norman fits within the Prophetic Tradition of the Jewish People along the lines of Chomsky. In response to a  question after the lecture, Norman stated that in his opinion the Nazis had exterminated somewhere between 5.2 to 5.4 Million Jews. That's a self-hating Jew for you?

We got off the boat at the dock
Walking into town I was asked
Could I lay some flowers
At the War Memorial
On the Banks of the Volga?
Of course I said yes
Honored and pleased
My Dad had fought the Japanese
At Saipan and Tinian and Okinawa
Nazis were not his war
But We were all Allies together
In the Noble Cause to Defeat Fascism
As I neared the Statue
On the Banks of the Volga
Young Komsomol Girl appeared
All dressed in white
Carrying a wreath of red roses
She gave to me
A band was playing
Joyful, not somber, but subdued
Town Elders assembled
Sun was shining
Most beautiful day
On the Banks of the Volga
I lay my wreath of roses
To the Defenders and Victims of Stalingrad
Bowed my head in silent reflection
If the Soviets had not held at Stalingrad
All Europe today would be speaking German
And saluting: Heil Hitler!
Deutschland, Deutschland
But not Uber Alles
My Dad was smiling
On the Banks of the Volga

Kirstein at Xavier U:
"The UI persecuted a professor and bought its way off the censure list with a settlement which settled nothing," Kirstein  said.
"Dr. Salaita does not have an academic appointment and the American Indian Studies program is gutted. From the Chief to Salaita, the war on Native American culture and studies continues. It is outrageous that the US is not censured."

For sure! Ditto and a fortiori! The Zionists destroyed Salaita's career as a professor for a mere $800,000 in taxpayers money. No skin off their nose. Just like the Zionists did to my Friend Norman Finkelstein at DePaul University:They are supposed to be "Catholic"-LOL! And here Wise {sic} also destroyed our entire Native American Studies Program forever. Way to go Phyllis! A two-fer for your bigotry and racism! Speaking of "Catholics"-may you rot in Purgatory!

A report from an AAUP representative who visited the UI in April found that the climate for academic freedom is "robust", said Anita Levy, Senior program officer for Academic Freedom,Tenure and Governance.
That is a bald-faced lie by the AAUP! The bigoted and racist persecution of Steven Salaita by the entire University Administration, many Faculty and large elements of the surrounding Community has terrorized and intimidated Palestinians/Arabs/Muslims of Color on this Campus and absolutely nothing has been done to alleviate it by the University of Illinois. Likewise,  the University's longstanding bigotry and racism against American Indians still remains and has never been repudiated, rectified or even apologized for. Chancellor Wise's illegal firing of Steven Salaita was a two'fer for bigotry and racism on this Campus that is still pervasive against all People of Color here.
