Anti-Semitism at Columbia?

The NY Daily News reports on oppression at one of the premiere schools for higher learning:

In the world of Hamid Dabashi, supporters of Israel are "warmongers" and "Gestapo apparatchiks."
The Jewish homeland is "nothing more than a military base for the rising predatory empire of the United States."
It's a capital of "thuggery" - a "ghastly state of racism and apartheid" - and it "must be dismantled."
A voice from America's crackpot fringe? Actually, Dabashi is a tenured professor and department chairman at Columbia University. And his views have resonated and been echoed in other areas of the university.


Wow, I'm shocked that an elite, northeastern, Liberal school would have professors who act like this.
