Idris Robinson, giving his talk “How It Might Should Be Done.” Last month, on March 24, Idris Robinson, a philosophy professor at Texas State University, filed a lawsuit against the university for wrongful termination and for violating his right to free speech. The University had decided not to renew Robinson’s tenure-track contract – despite his stellar academic reviews – after Zionists pressured the school. The Zionists were playing the same broken record: Robinson was “antisemitic,” and a glorifier of “terrorism,” for supporting the Palestinian liberation struggle. Robinson became a target after giving a talk entitled “Strategic Lessons from the Palestinian…

“War is the continuation of politics by other means” is Clausewitz’s most famous dictum.  Lebanon has suffered far too much from the serial failures of diplomacy and the shortcomings of politics, necessitating the use of “other means.” Now yet again, diplomats and statesmen are trying to induce the country and its powerful antagonists to reach a political accommodation that checks the worst instincts of warring factions more powerful than the state itself.  Last week in Washington, Israeli and Lebanese diplomats met under American auspices during an American-engineered ceasefire. Efforts are under way to establish direct talks between Israel and the…

On the eve of the 2023 Service Employees International Union Local 99 strike, Los Angeles Times Columnist Robin Abcarian wrote “I don’t blame the union one bit” and condemned Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho for “just one more slap in the face” after Carvalho “responded to the (strike) vote by comparing the union’s action to a circus.” In reference to SEIU, Carvalho had tweeted: “Circus = a predictable performance with a known outcome, desiring of nothing more than an applause, a coin, and a promise of a next show.” For SEIU, LAUSD’s poverty-level wages should be…

For nearly two decades, Congress has obediently renewed one of the federal government’s most expansive and unconstitutional domestic surveillance authorities, typically with total bipartisan enthusiasm, little floor debate, and even less public attention. Last Thursday morning, at 2 a.m., House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) kept that tradition alive, summoning members back to the Capitol in the dead of night for what Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) accurately labeled “a secret vote to reauthorize FISA while America sleeps.” That law, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, was first enacted in 2008, when Congress voted to retroactively authorize parts of a…
