The imperatives imposed by the Zionist lobbies in the U.S. long, long ago destroyed what integrity remained among U.S. mainstream media. Now they are destroying institutions of higher learning, the Justice and Homeland Security departments and altogether American law.

Excerpt:

Rashid Khalidi, in a stinging opinion piece in The Guardian, asked, "Does Columbia still merit the name of a university?" Khalidi posed this question after the university where he taught for many years capitulated to the Trump regime's demands that it compromise academic freedom, freedom of speech and freedom of association while submitting its programs of study to political purview. All this in response to charges that anti–Semitism is rife among students demonstrating against Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians of Gaza.

When Immigration and Customs goons arrested Mahmoud Khalil, a leader of last year’'s demonstrations at Columbia, Homeland Security initially said only that he "engaged in activities aligned with Hamas." The State Department subsequently cited a provision in the 1798 Alien Enemies Act, asserting that his presence "would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States."
