MORE ADMIRABLE MATURITY AND RESTRAINT FROM THE RUTGERS ANTI-SEMITES: Immediately prior to Israeli cabinet member Natan Sharansky's scheduled speech at Rutgers University Thursday night, one of those anti-Israel "activists" we've heard so much about got up and threw a pie at Sharansky. The assailant, an undergraduate by the name of Abe Greenhouse, was immediately arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. Greenhouse, according to the Israeli Insider newsletter, previously appeared in the news when he visited Jerusalem and spoke of placing a note in the Western Wall that read "stop the motherfucking occupation," which is wrong on so many levels it's hard to count.
What hypocrites these people are. The Rutgers "activists" are pushing right now, on "free speech" grounds, to get their canceled conference reinstated, but when the man who heroically stood up to Soviet Communist tyranny on behalf of Jewish refugees- at the price of imprisonment- got up to give a speech to 500 students, was he allowed his right to free speech? Oh no! He got a pie in the face! Way to elevate the debate, guys.
Sharansky, to his credit, returned a few minutes later and gave his speech as scheduled. The topic? "A Jewish perspective of the road to peace."
