Al-Arian said he is being targeted by Israel because his of his efforts to educate Americans about the plight of Palestinians living in the occupied territories.

Not according to a scathing editorial published by FL's very left leaning St. Petersburg Times, wherein the editors cited reason after reason as well as evidence they claim shows the public should see through the scam of this USF professor. For once, The St. Petersburg Times and Gov. Jeb Bush were on the same side, as Gov Bush has supported the USF President's decision to fire this professor. Also, a USF student group voted to support it as well. The only ones I have heard against the firing are some professors (although other professors support the firing), and, I think, Bill O'Reilly said he was currently opposed to the firing because he did not agree with the USF President's grounds for firing.

I wonder how many Sami Al-Arian types permeate our culture. We've got a long way to go before we can rectify the harm we've done to ourselves through permissiveness and apathy. And we certainly don't advance our cause by relying on people like O'Reilly for our opinions.
