Outrage of the Day

If you thought Columbia University might actually do some housecleaning and deal with the outrageous antisemitism and anti-Americanism of their radical Arab/Arabist professors, think again.

You see, according to Columbia’s faculty committee, the whole thing was drummed up by “uncivil” Jews. Columbia Panel Reports No Proof of Anti-Semitism.

An ad hoc faculty committee charged with investigating complaints that pro-Israel Jewish students were harassed by pro-Palestinian professors at Columbia University said it had found one instance in which a professor “exceeded commonly accepted bounds” of behavior when he became angry at a student who he believed was defending Israel’s conduct toward Palestinians.

But the report, obtained by The New York Times and scheduled for release today, said it had found “no evidence of any statements made by the faculty that could reasonably be construed as anti-Semitic.”

It did, however, describe a broader environment of incivility on campus, with pro-Israel students disrupting lectures on Middle Eastern studies and some faculty members feeling that they were being spied on.
