Obama's Afghanistan speechPhyllis Bennis
December 9, 2009
There was one way in which President Obama's escalation speech brought significant relief to the 59% of people in this country, as well as the overwhelming majorities of people in Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Middle East and elsewhere who oppose the U.S. war in Afghanistan: It was a pretty lousy speech.
Haiti, Afghanistan, Yemen, Gaza and ObamaPhyllis Bennis
January 27, 2010
Catastrophe in Haiti, escalation in Afghanistan, new threats against Yemen, Israeli siege of Gaza tightens...and Obama's been in office a year now. Yikes.
The Arab world's intifadaPhyllis Bennis
November 20, 2011
The "Arab spring" may have started in early 2011 when a young Tunisian fruit seller, in a desperate response to disempowerment and despair, immolated himself in the streets of a small town. But its origins link directly to the first Palestinian intifada, the non-violent, society-wide mobilization that transformed Palestine's national struggle beginning in the late 1980s.
In Gaza Airstrikes, an Appeal to Netanyahu's HardlinersPhyllis Bennis
November 21, 2012
As is always the case, history is shaped by when you start the clock. In the last several days U.S. media accounts have reported increasing violence on the Gaza-Israel border, most of them beginning with a Palestinian attack on Israeli soldiers on Thursday, November 8.
Settlement Reached in Case of Professor Fired for "Uncivil" Tweetspress@ccrjustice.org
November 27, 2015
November 12, 2015, Chicago - Today, the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) and co-counsel Loevy & Loevy announced the settlement of Professor Steven Salaita's case against the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) for firing him from his tenured position over his personal tweets criticizing the Israeli government's assault on Gaza in 2014. Professor Salaita sued UIUC, the university Board of Trustees and high-level administrators for violating his First Amendment right to free speech and for breach of contract. Salaita's firing became a flashpoint for debates over academic freedom, free speech, and the repression of Palestinian rights advocacy. In exchange for Professor Salaita's agreement to release his claims, the university has agreed to pay $875,000.
Palestine: A seat at UN is too much to ask? Prince el Hassan bin Talal

Facing a Major Attack on Academic Freedom in CanadaProf. Anthony Hall
September 10, 2017
Sixteen years after the event, 9/11 stands as striking evidence of an insidious assault on science. Officialdom's dogged adherence to a discredited account of 9/11 stands as a stark illustration of this phenomenon. The subordination of scientific method to the higher imperatives of imperial war propaganda is epitomized by officialdom's failure to formulate a credible account of the 9/11 debacle. Universities have become important sites of this betrayal. The sabotage of society's primary platforms of scholarly enterprise forms an essential feature of a more pervasive attack from within. Everywhere, but especially on the Internet, fundamental freedoms are being menaced to investigate, publish, publicize and discuss interpretations that might undermine or inconvenience power.
