05-31-07 - Terrorized Let me ask you a hypothetical question. What do you think America would do if Canadian soldiers were firing dozens of missiles every day into Buffalo, N.Y.? Let me ask the neocon morons of the AEI a question : What do you think that Americans would do if a foreign army invaded their cities, towns and villages, and proceeded to seize their land by force, demolish their homes, and force them out? WE ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION. Which came first - Israeli land theft, Israeli terrorism, or Palestinian terrorism? The first terrorist organizations in the region were JEWISH (Irgun and Stern), and it was Israeli forces that expelled hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their homes, bulldozed their villages, and barred their return (despite UN resn. 194). Israel continues to illegally occupy and colonize Palestinian land nearly sixty years later. The first terrorists, the worst terrorists, were NOT the largely defenseless agrarian peoples that populated a land that another group sought to 'reclaim'.

05-31-07 - Arabic school in N.Y.C. creates stir Daniel Pipes, a controversial Middle East scholar, wrote that "Arabic-language instruction is inevitably laden with pan-Arabist and Islamist baggage."

It contended that the Arab language curriculum there "indoctrinated [students] with a tendentious Arab nationalist reading of Middle Eastern history." The dean of Middlebury's language schools, Michael Geisler, strongly denies the assertion and says that much in the article Mr. Pipes quoted was "demonstrably wrong." Still, the charge raised concerns among some in New York's influential Jewish community.
Usual suspects.
