(IsraelNN.com) Student politicians from the University of California at Berkeley voted Thursday to divest from Israel. The Student Senate voted 16-4 to call on the university to divest its funds from General Electric and from United Technologies, because both companies produce weapons purchased by the Israeli army. The bill calling for divestment was co-sponsored by students Emiliano Huet-Vaughn and Tom Pessah, the latter an anti-Zionist Israeli citizen.
The bill noted the “complexity” of the Israel-Arab conflict, but went on to accuse Israel of violating international law with a “prolonged siege” on Gaza and “attacks on Palestinian and Lebanese civilians,” accusations based on statements from radical left NGO's critical of Israel such as Physicians for Human Rights and Human Rights Watch.

Imagine thousands of people who think like Rev. Wright, mix in some “activist” Muslims from the middle east, throw in a college full of professors like Saul Alinsky and... well, you get the idea.
What you get are the future leaders of the world. Think about that lest you think congress is scary.
Yep. I’ve returned back to college recently and I’ve noticed that answer.org has a lot of posters protesting the war and pushing for free education. I knew of at least one professor that worked for answer.org. He was a lunatic.
