It's in quotes because it's been used by Khalek since way before her UNC disinvite against ANY criticism of her - or of her colleagues Norton and Blumenthal, by anyone. Anyway, it's interesting that the Charles Murray/Middlebury incident comes at the same time, as there are obviously overlapping issues and tactical considerations. But there's one crucial difference: The pro-Khalek statement, and amplifications of it by her supporters, DENY THAT SHE'S DONE OR SAID ANYTHING WRONG. For them, Syria is "complicated," "too difficult to take sides," "unclear," etc. etc. etc. In their eyes, there is no murderous regime, no Russian/Hezbollah imperialist invasion, no self-organization by the Syrian masses. But of course one wouldn't want to admit that in polite country, thus the furious, duplicitous defense of a 3rd-rate blogger and mouthpiece for the regime. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
