Ward Churchill makes an intellectually and morally indefensible comparison between innocent civilians trading stocks and Adolf Eichmann organizing the murder of six million Jews, and the best minds of the academic Left (and I say that without sarcasm) as well as the best lights of international journalism (that one was sarcasm) rush to protect him. But let a professor point out that "there’s more than one perspective on the Middle East conflict" and that Israelis are not Nazis, and he is to have his job taken away, his life insurance revoked, and his reputation ruined. Academic freedom - only for mildly anti-Semitic, disgustingly anti-American Leftist celebrities.
