Temple University Defends Holocaust-Questioning Professor

Hat tip Campus Reform

If you think that the 6 million dead in the Holocaust is questionable and that Jews have too much influence in academia, Temple University is the place for you. Here is a example of why the focal point for anti-Semitism in America is in our universities.

“This resolution rightly targets only Israel given the humongous influence that Jewish scholars have in the decision making process of Academia in general.”

“Temple University promotes open discussion and expression among its diverse community of scholars,” the spokesman said. “The exercise of academic freedom necessarily results in a vigorous exchange of ideas.”

I would like to ask the Temple spokesman what he would say if one of their professors questioned the severity of slavery or complained about the humongous influence that black scholars have in the decision-making process of academia in general. Keep in mind one of the first things the Nazis did when they took power in 1933 was remove all Jewish professors-and students- from their universities.

As to the second quote, would Temple hire a professor who thought the world was flat in order to have a "diverse community of scholars" and promote "a vigorous exchange of ideas"? Of course not. This is just another example of tolerating anti-Semitism in academia because everybody is aligned against Israel.

Here is a diverse opinion from this humble adjunct teacher of English as a second language (with only a masters degree) at UC Irvine: I think there is a definite correlation between the high number of leftist, misfit, America-hating professors with the high number of Israel bashers in Academia. 

How's that for stimulating a vigorous discussion?
