Hillary's quotation

We, as a city, a state and a nation, must continue to keep faith with the promise of higher education.
Senator Hillary Clinton told the CUNY Graduates these words. She also said that New York is the Beacon of freedom. And most important, she denounced the "people who have somehow tapped into the divine and therefore can tell the rest of us how to believe and how to live."
The tragedy with higher education in the United States is that the people who have tapped into the divine and therefore can tell the rest of us how to believe and how to live' are controlling Middle East studies, transforming them into propaganda machines. A disturbing example is the disastrous and unacceptable situation of Columbia University, where scholars of the middle east are a joke, where pure propagandists are disguised as historians, anthropologists, where the president is a confused intellectual, who does not distinguish between academic freedom, which means to be free to research and publish your research, and propaganda against the only democracy in the middle east, where the majority of the academic Senate voted against RTO on the campus because of the military's policy "don't ask, don't tell". This is the same academic senate that protects and defends professors who consider homosexuality a crime (see Saudi Arabia), that supports professors who call the only democratic state in the Middle East racist, coveringt up the most racist and xenophobic state, Saudi Arabia. How can such an academic senate speak for higher education? Nemo dat, quod non habet Nobody can give something that he does not have.
What is the board of Columbia university doing? Does the board have the obligation to hire scholars and not propagandists? How do the parents of the students accept such an aberrant situation? How can the parents send their daughters and sons to a University whose professors have somehow tapped into the divine and therefore can brainwash the students, telling them how to believe and how to live?
