The mask is coming off. We bomb ISIS, yet we fund CUNY. The City University of New York has been transformed from a public university that let poor kids get a good education and succeed. They boast about how many Nobel laureates they’ve produced, but those days are behind them. Instead, CUNY has become an […]
Marc Lamont Hill Appointed ‘Presidential Professor’ At CUNY, No One Objects
Marc Lamont Hill is the rabid anti-Israel academic who was fired as a commentator by CNN for his antisemitic views. He’s back, now as that appetizing thing, a full professor at CUNY, which is fitting, as CUNY has become the most anti-Israel university in the nation. He will be a “presidential professor” — the highest […]
Anti-Israel CUNY 2022 and 2023 graduation speakers led NYC rally linked to antisemitic assault
There is no problem with this kind of violence. This would only be mainstream media-worthy if the violence were in the other direction, which of course it should not be. This violence doesn’t fit the establishment narrative, and so it essentially didn’t happen. “Anti-Israel CUNY graduation speakers led 2022 rally linked to antisemitic assault,” by […]
Mehdi Hasan Defends Fatima Mohammed
Mehdi Hasan is a cocky, unpleasant, shallow man, a Muslim import from the U.K. whose resistible rise in journalism will put many in mind of a Muslim Sammy Glick. In the U.K., he first came to the attention of the public for taking part in a debate held the Oxford Union in 2009, where he […]
Hamas-linked CAIR enraged that CUNY calls Muslima’s antisemitic speech ‘hateful’ after approving it in advance
In this case, the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has a point: CUNY is a gang of sleazy hypocrites. But at the same time, Fatima Mohammed’s speech was indeed hateful, and deserving of condemnation, although it is well within today’s academic mainstream. “America’s largest Muslim advocacy group slams CUNY leadership for being ‘dishonest’ for calling […]
A Gitmo Terror Lawyer Who Threw Stones at Israel Goes to the White House
Ramzi Kassem repped an Al Qaeda terrorist; now he’s setting immigration policy for Biden. “This is not a battle of good versus evil,” Ramzi Kassem wrote in an op-ed that appeared on September 17, 2001. “The perpetrators were probably not driven to their actions by some intrinsic evil or inherent hatred of the good United […]
The Rebarbative Fatima Mohammed Speaks Her Piece
Chosen by her classmates to be class speaker at CUNY’s Law School graduation, Yemeni-American Fatima Mohammed did not disappoint. She attacked Israel as a “colonial settler state” that wantonly rains death on Palestinians, denounced the NYPD for “fascism,” and described the law itself as an expression of “white supremacy,” a claim which would no doubt […]
Israel’s Medical Treatment of Leaders of Hamas and the PA, and CUNY’s Double Standard
Nerdeen Kiswani is the CUNY law student who posted a video of herself holding a flaming lighter in her hand, and approaching a man wearing a sweatshirt with an IDF logo, while she says “I’m gonna set it alight. I’m serious.” She has also accused Israel of committing “genocide” on the Palestinian people. But […]
CUNY Enraged That Social Media Giants Dropped Event Featuring a Terrorist
My latest in PJ Media: It’s 2020, and so terrorists must have their say: Facebook, YouTube, and Zoom refused to carry a virtual event featuring a terrorist, and City University of New York (CUNY) officials are outraged. As we see practically every day now, the Left is not bound by the rules it sets for […]
Muslim CUNY Law student threatens to set man wearing IDF sweatshirt on fire
What have CUNY authorities done about this case? Or in the light of the fact that Nerdeen Kiswani’s views largely align with theirs, have they done nothing? College and university campuses have become increasingly inhospitable spaces for Jewish and pro-Israel students. Horrific – a student at @CUNY, Nerdeen Kiswani, threatens to set on fire a […]
