Students arrested for heckling Oren at Irvine speech

February 9, 2010

NEW YORK (JTA) -- At least 11 students were arrested for interrupting a lecture by Israel's U.S. ambassador at a California university.

Michael Oren was interrupted repeatedly during his speech Monday night at the University of California, Irvine, which for years has been at the center of campus wars over Israel.

Oren was removed from the stage for a period because of the outbursts, prompting a university faculty member to take the podium and admonish the crowd, calling the incident "embarrassing."

Oren returned to finish his speech but did not take questions from the audience, as was scheduled, Haaretz reported.

In a statement received by the Orange County Register, the university's Muslim Student Union said, "We condemn and oppose the presence of Michael Oren, the ambassador of Israel to the United States, on our campus today."

The University of California, Irvine has long been a flashpoint for the Israel wars on American campuses, with both sides leveling accusations of intimidation. The Zionist Organization of America complained about the situation to the U.S. Department of Education, which concluded there was insufficient evidence that the university had failed to adequately respond to complaints of harassment.

More recently, the ZOA called on the Department of Justice to probe alleged fund-raising activities on behalf of Hamas by Irvine students.

An Ethnie without a sense of peoplehood will end up being used to achieve the goals of other ethnies.  -- Michael Santomauro 

A Sense of Peoplehood is not a Pathology

It is not racist for a professor such as Alan Dershowitz or for a professor like Kevin MacDonald to advocate for their ethnic group interests.

The words for bigotry, that are often used, such as: ant-Semitic, anti-white, anti-black, anti-Arab, anti-feminist, anti-gay and hundreds of other labels, are for the most part overstated. Instead, it should be seen as pro-white, or pro-Jewish or pro-women or pro-traditional family and not be ashamed of it.

These "pro" sensibilities are part of the human condition, not to be pathologized into an "anti."

It is about group interests.

A race or an ethnie without a sense of peoplehood or ethnichood will end up being used to achieve the goals of other ethnies. (Yes, ethnie, not ethnic).

The feelings or thoughts for peoplehood is not a pathology. The European-American will have White ethnic interests and it is not racist to have them. Just as Hispanics, Asians, Jews and Blacks have their own ethnic interests, it should not be a pathology for Whites to have ethnic interests. –Michael Santomauro

The Chronicle of Higher Education

February 7, 2010

Tony Judt's Free Speech

To the Editor:

In your article on Professor Tony Judt, a stubborn mistruth was repeated ("The Trials of Tony Judt," The Chronicle Review, January 15).

In October 2006, Judt was scheduled to speak at an event hosted by Network 20/20, which rented space from the Polish Consulate in New York. His topic dealt with the Middle East.

Shortly before the event took place, the consulate withdrew its offer. Consul General Krzysztof Kasprzyk, who only learned about the scheduled event at the last minute, stated that his building was not a "catering hall," and that it would not provide a venue to those who opposed the basic tenets of Polish foreign policy. In calling for a one-state solution, Judt advocated Israel's end, which runs contrary to Poland's support for Israel's right to exist.

The article perpetuates the urban legend that the cancellation resulted from pressure exerted by the American Jewish Committee and another Jewish group. The only action taken by AJC was one friendly phone call to inform the Consul General, in case he did not know, that the event was slated to take place, so he would be prepared for any criticism resulting from those who might misconstrue the rental of the space as endorsement of the speaker's message. There was no request to cancel the event.

But the story took on a life of its own, with Judt presenting himself as a target of Jewish agencies trying to silence or intimidate Israel's critics. He quickly found a group of supporters reflexively prepared to believe the worst about pro-Israel organizations. More than three years later, this apocryphal account continues to surface.

While we are totally at odds with advocates of a one-state solution and other virulent critics of Israel, we have never challenged their First Amendment rights. In other words, it is long overdue to put the 2006 canard to rest.

"BOMB IRAN!" By Daniel Pipes

 

8 February 2010 / 24 Shevat 5770 

The Jerusalem Post

http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=167618 

BOMB IRAN!

Obama needs dramatic gesture to save presidency

 

             By DANIEL PIPES

 

I do not customarily offer advice to a president whose election I opposed,
whose goals I fear and whose policies I work against. But here is a way
for Barack Obama to salvage his tottering administration by taking a step
that protects the US and its allies.

If Obama's personality, identity and celebrity captivated a majority of the
American electorate in 2008, those qualities proved ruefully deficient in
2009. He failed to deliver on employment and health care, he failed in
foreign policy forays small (e.g., landing the 2016 Olympics) and large
(relations with China and Japan). His counterterrorism record barely
passes the laugh test.

This poor performance has caused an unprecedented collapse in the polls
and the loss of three major by-elections, culminating two weeks ago in an
astonishing senatorial defeat in Massachusetts. Obama's attempts to "reset"
his presidency will likely fail if he focuses on economics, where he is just
one of many players.

He needs a dramatic gesture to change the public perception of him as a
lightweight, bumbling ideologue, preferably in an arena where the stakes
are high, where he can take charge and where he can trump expectations.

Such an opportunity does exist: Obama can order the US military to destroy
Iran's nuclear weapons capacity.

Circumstances are propitious. First, US intelligence agencies have reversed
the preposterous 2007 National Intelligence Estimate that claimed with
"high confidence" that Teheran had "halted its nuclear weapons program."
No one (other than the Iranian rulers and their agents) denies that the
regime is rushing headlong to build a nuclear arsenal.

Second, if the apocalyptic-minded leaders in Teheran get the Bomb,
they render the Middle East yet more volatile and dangerous. They might
deploy these weapons in the region, leading to massive death and
destruction. Or they could launch an electromagnetic pulse attack on the
US, devastating the country. By eliminating the Iranian nuclear threat,
Obama protects the homeland and sends a message to America's friends
and enemies.

Third, polling shows long-standing American backing for an attack on
the Iranian nuclear infrastructure.

• A Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll in January 2006 found that 57%
of Americans favored military intervention if Teheran pursues a program
that could enable it to build nuclear arms.

• A Zogby International poll in October 2007 found that 52% of likely
voters supported a US military strike to prevent Iran from building a
nuclear weapon; 29% opposed such a step.

• McLaughlin & Associates in May 2009 asked whether people would
support "using the [US] military to attack and destroy the facilities in Iran
which are necessary to produce a nuclear weapon"; 58% of 600 likely
voters supported the use of force and 30% opposed it.

• Fox News in September 2009 asked: "Do you support or oppose the
United States taking military action to keep Iran from getting nuclear
weapons?" Sixty-one percent of 900 registered voters supported military
action and 28% opposed it.

• Pew Research Center in October 2009 asked which is more important,
"to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, even if it means
taking military action" or "to avoid a military conflict with Iran, even if
it means they may develop nuclear weapons";  of 1,500 respondents,
61% favored the first reply and 24% the second.

Not only does a strong majority – 57%, 52%, 58%, 61% and 61% – already
favor using force, but after a strike Americans will presumably rally
around the flag, pushing that number much higher.

Fourth, were the US strike limited to taking out Iran's nuclear facilities,
and not aspiring to regime change, it would require few "boots on the
ground" and entail relatively few casualties, making an attack politically
more palatable.

Just as 9/11 caused voters to forget George W. Bush's meandering early
months, a strike on the Iranian facilities would dispatch Obama's feckless
first year down the memory hole and transform the domestic political scene.
It would sideline health care, prompt Republicans to work with Democrats,
make netroots squeal, independents reconsider and conservatives swoon.

But the chance to do good and do well is fleeting. As the Iranians improve
their defenses and approach weaponization, the window of opportunity is
closing. The time to act is now or, on Obama's watch, the world will soon
become a much more dangerous place.

7,500 Mohawks Evict 25 White Folks--To Protect Ethnie Identity

 

Non-natives being evicted

 

Given 10 days to leave Kahnawake; Mohawks concerned about 'protecting identity': 'This is part of revitalizing the community'

 

BY KATHERINE WILTON, THE GAZETTEFEBRUARY 3, 2010

 

 

Saying there are too many non-natives living in Kahnawake, the local band council has issued eviction notices to 25 residents, giving them 10 days to leave the Indian reserve on Montreal's South Shore.

About 25 non-natives - mostly white people involved in relationships with Mohawks - are being asked to leave the reserve because Mohawk law does not allow them to live there, said Joe Delaronde, press attaché for the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake.

"They are people with no native ancestry at all," Delaronde said in an interview yesterday.

According to Mohawk law, non-aboriginals have no residency rights. About 7,500 Mohawks live on the reserve.

Band council chiefs began hand-delivering the strongly worded letter on Monday and continued yesterday.

"There have been numerous complaints regarding individuals contravening Mohawk law by residing in the Mohawk territory of Kahnawake without a right to do so. You were identified in these complaints," the letter says.

The eviction letter tells non-natives they have 10 days to leave the reserve.

"We trust that you understand the seriousness of this letter and that you will govern yourselves accordingly."

If the non-natives can't move by the deadline, they must contact the band council to make other arrangements, Delaronde said.

"We are not heartless," he added. "We know that not everyone has a brother or a parent in Châteauguay they can stay with."

In a press release on the band council's website, Grand Chief Michael Delisle said: "Every single Kahnawake Mohawk knows the law. It is unfortunate that some people have chosen to disregard the community's wishes."

In 1981, the community announced a moratorium on mixed marriages, which meant that non-natives who married Mohawks after that year would no longer have the right to live on the reserve. Any non-native who had married a Mohawk before the moratorium is still permitted to live on the reserve.

In the 1980s, some Mohawks contested the policy before the human rights tribunal, but lost. The courts have ruled that Mohawks can make any membership policy they deem necessary for their survival as a people.

"We're very concerned about protecting our identity because at a certain point, the Canadian government will look at us and say: 'You are not even Indians,' " Delaronde said.

"We are very proud of our heritage and protective about it. We don't have a whole hell of a lot of it left. This is part of revitalizing the community."

The band council decided to act after receiving complaints from Indians who feel that too many non-natives are living on the reserve.

"We are responding to what the community wants," Delaronde said.

Although Mohawk law says that non-natives can't live on the reserve, they are allowed to visit and stay overnight, he explained.

"Sleeping over or staying for a week is a whole different situation," he said.

Delaronde said he hopes the non-natives accept the wishes of the community and leave peacefully.

If they refuse to move, their names will be "published locally," he said.

"I know that's not a nice thing, but if people refuse, names will be published and then it becomes a peer pressure thing."

Harvard Professor--Racist?

 

Here's Alan Dershowitz advocating for his ethnie. On Judge Goldstone and the report:

 

"[He] is a traitor using his Jewishness to malign Israel… He is an evil man, one who allowed himself to be used against the Jewish people, an absolute traitor."

"[Dershowitz] said that he and Goldstone were friends and colleagues for a long time, "but now I see him as a traitor… It's as if they would have taken a Jew to edit the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. He uses his Jewish last name to kosher his slander of the Jewish People.""
