11. | Last February, a grand jury indicted three Middle East specialists associated with the University of South Florida on charges of being “material supporters of a foreign terrorist organization,” namely Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Not only did the Middle East studies establishment seem unperturbed by that indictment, but several professors rushed to defend the accused. Abu Sway's Fulbright award presents another example of connections to Islamist terrorism becoming acceptable and almost routine in Middle Eastern studies - one of several reasons why it is perhaps the most problematic of any academic field. Daniel Pipes, director of the Middle East Forum, was vice-chairman of the Fulbright Board of Foreign Scholarships in the early 1990s. Asaf Romirowsky is an MEF research associate.

Comment on this item पिछली फरवरी में एक विशाल जूरी ने दक्षिण फ्लोरिडा विश्वविद्यालय से संबद्ध तीन मध्यपूर्व विशेषज्ञों को फिलीस्तीनी इस्लामिक जेहाद नामक संगठन को साम्रग्री के आधार पर समर्थन करने का दोषी पाया था . तीन सदस्यों के दोष सिद्ध होने पर मध्यपूर्व अध्ययन का तंत्र विचलित नहीं हुआ वरन् वे आरोपी के बचाव में कूद पड़े । अबू स्वे का फुलब्राइट पुरस्कार प्राप्त करना इस बात का एक और उदाहरण है कि किस प्रकार मध्यपूर्व अध्ययन में नियमित तौर पर इस्लामवादी आतंकवादियों को स्वीकार किया जा रहा है और शायद यह उन अनेक कारणों में से एक है जिसके चलते किसी भी अकादमिक क्षेत्र का सबसे जटिल विषय है । | |
12. | If the advisory board is not the ideal solution, it is the best to be hoped for at the moment, given the power of the higher-education lobby. I am ready to give H.R. 3077 a chance. But should the board not come into existence or fail to make a difference, I'll advocate the better solution - defunding - and work to spread these ideas among the public and in Congress. My opponents will then learn what happens when truly I am “actively pushing” for Congress to adopt a measure. Comment by Martin Kramer in his “ Sandbox ” commentary: Pipes on HR3077 . Daniel Pipes devotes his column this morning to HR3077. Reminder: the bill would create an advisory board for the Title VI program of government subsidies to area studies at universities. The bill's radical opponents, especially Arab and Muslim advocacy groups, have portrayed Pipes as a prime initiator or backer of the bill. But Pipes, who now serves on the board of the U.S. Institute of Peace, and once served on the Fulbright board, hasn't been a great believer in HR3077. Nor has he been an activist for it. Truth is, he doesn't think much of such boards. Pipes would rather defund Title VI, or divert its post-9/11 windfall to an alternative network of centers devoted to terrorism studies. For now, he's willing to give the board idea a chance. Since I strongly support HR3077, I'm grateful for his endorsement, however reserved. But if the board isn't created, or fails to effect any change, he promises to launch a defunding campaign. Should that happen, I'll be right behind him.

Comment on this item यदि सलाहकार बोर्ड उपयुक्त समाधान नहीं है तो मेरी दृष्टि में उच्च शिक्षा लाबी को कुछ समय के लिये इसका अधिकार दिया जाना चाहिये। मैं H.R 3077 को एक अवसर देने के पक्ष में हूँ और इसके लिये कांग्रेस और लोगों में जनमत बनाने का आग्रह करूँगा । तब मेरे विरोधियों को पता चलेगा कि कांग्रेस को एक समाधान के साथ सक्रिय रूप से कार्य करने का क्या असर होना है। |
