If I had a college age son or daughter, who was exposed to this radically biased stuff, I'd jerk the student out, and write letters to the regents, the President, the local papers, and the student paper.

If I was a student, I would openly challenge the goofy professor. If I was penalized on grades, I'd take the college to court.

>>"Why do American academics so often despise their own country while finding excuses for repressive and dangerous regimes?"

Deep down - they're afraid.

"Why do professors of linguistics, chemistry, American history, genetics and business present themselves in public as authorities on the Middle East? "

Because they are a gaggle of pampered, indulged and self-important a$$holes!

And some of the college kids are buying this crap. My kids are still VERY conservative -- all college age. But I got an email from one kid who is 21 and in college and he USED to be conservative and now he believes all this liberal mumbojumbo and I can't convince him otherwise. they are brainwashing our kids

The only purpose of war would be to provide cover for Israel to commit what he calls "even higher atrocities" against Palestinians by removing them from the West Bank and Gaza.

We should be so lucky. Keep it up Muzzies and this wish for enhanced victimhood will come true

Tom Nagy, associate professor of business at George Washington University........

Fact is the MidEast studies profs are no better, are slick explainers and apologists for Jihadist Islam and moderate Islam. Example being John Esposito of G'Town.

I think we've run out of people's butts to kick and that we essentially want to keep the butt-kicking going."

Liberals seem to be preoccupied with butts.

You know, Katt, the sad part is that those of us in the academy who are conservative are compelled to appear BALANCED, while our socialist colleagues across campus can spout any kind of crap they want. I have a colleague in the business school who tried to present both sides to his tax class and received a shock when one student said she thought that he must be liberal! He decided then and there to tell him where he was coming from, while encouraging them to make up their own minds, of course.

I have started teaching public choice theory and thinly-disguised Austrian economics along with my normal free-market microeconomics. The students really respond well, showing that they can think after all, when cordially challenged. I have about decided that from now until I retire (which could be another twenty-five years), I will become more and more partisan (on the right) each year, just to balance the lunatics in the liberal arts and humanities departments.

Of course, I teach in a backwater institution, not in a stellar universe of enlightenment such as Yale. (Thank God!)

I agree. I say we start with the profs who hate America.

Add this flaming "Professorial" Hater to Pipes' list.

Saint Xavier professor Peter Kirstein

Text of an e-mail sent from Saint Xavier professor Peter Kirstein to an Air Force cadet in response to a request for information on how to promote an Air Force event on campus:

You are a disgrace to this country and I am furious you would even think I would support you and your aggressive baby-killing tactics of collateral damage. Help you recruit. Who, top guns to reign [sic] death and destruction upon nonwhite peoples throughout the world? Are you serious sir? Resign your commission and serve your country with honour.

No war, no air force cowards who bomb countries with AAA [sic], without possibility of retaliation. You are worse than the snipers. You are imperialists who are turning the whole damn world against us. September 11 can be blamed in part for what you and your cohorts have done to Palestinians, the VC, the Serbs, a retreating army at Basra.

You are unworthy of my support.

Peter N. Kirstein
Professor of History
Saint Xavier University

Prof rebuked for e-mail sent to Air Force cadet
