It seems they are looking for some Jewish scapegoats at Columbia: Columbia Profs For Truth
In comments on the troubling composition of a committee set up to investigate charges of anti-semitism and intimidation at Columbia the New York Post notes:
...the committee has shown an inordinate amount of interest in the making of the film "Columbia Unbecoming," which, along with reports in The New York Sun, brought the initial charges of intimidation to light last November.
(Columbia won't comment on the committee's work other than to reaffirm that it considers its composition appropriate.)
In the movie, one Jewish student recounts that a professor of Islamic civilization, George Saliba, told her she had no business questioning him because, "You have no claim to the land of Israel . . . You have green eyes." Another student, an Israeli who had served in the Israel Defense Forces, recounts Massad ranting: "How many Palestinians have you killed?"
The film was created by LionPAC, a pro-Israel student group at Columbia, in cooperation with the David Project, a national group that fights campus anti-Semitism. That's never been a secret, yet it appears the committee may now be looking to portray the film as the work of outside agitators — maybe even, shall we say, a Zionist conspiracy.
Maybe the committee will conclude that the Jewish students "brought it all on themselves."
Things are not trending well in this country are they?
