Don't Look to Iran for Academic Censorship, In the heart of the Midwest Depaul University

While the US claims academic censorship in Iran is a threat to democracy, let's visit the good all midwest and Depaul University. Norm Finkelstein a prolific political science writer and an objective eye on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was denied a tenure professorship at Depaul University. Author of the "Holocaust Industry" and many other objective works, Finkelstein himself a Jew and parents true Holocaust Jew survivers, writes of the industry behind the Holocaust and his parents vain efforts to receive reparations. Later he authored "Chutzpah", a counter to Alan Dershowitz's plagarism in "The Case for Israel". So now our academic criteria are set by Israel? What was interesting is his colleagues within the department sought him fit for the position, hence academic credibility and objectivity within the field was not of question but higher authorities seemed it not politically/financially beneficial for the University. Let us show our support for academic freedom rather than suffer the consquences of our next generation being prey to indoctrination.
