University of Chicago Students Call On Anti-Israel Prof Mearsheimer to Retire
Jack, I spent 50 years in Chicagoland. Sadly, Mearsheimer is not a lone voice in the wilderness in Hyde Park…he is but one of many on the left who took up the BBC/UN slander banner against Israel.
I don’t know the precise date that the tipping point came, but there was suddenly a pronounced leftist shift against Israel. Certainly Carter was of that bent. Bush the Elder, Baker, Pat Buchanan whipsawed Israel …so that she was taking blows from both sides. But Europe turned on her with a vengeance.
The tide seemed to turn back here at home, as the people here resisted mightily in her favor. Until…
The current administration with the Malley, Rice, Power, Brzezinski faction…it’s Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Rashid Khalidi, Ali Abuminah influence…sends a chill up the spine of anyone who loves Israel.
Leaving Bibi to dine alone, the pronouncement that settlements should be abated and borders wiped out, sitting on our hands in Syria and Iran, but ridding Egypt of a putative ally…even the “accidental” landing of our drone technology in Iran…all seem to line up neatly as nails in a coffin, laying to rest the last shred of doubt as to where allegiances begin and end.
The LATimes could hold evidence hostage all they wish…it will not hide a lifetime of antipathy, surrounded by the most vicious anti-Semites Chicagoland has to offer.
Mearsheimer is a disgrace to Chicago. But, he is not the only one…and far from the most dangerous one today.
