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.

Failing Grade for Carleton ReportReuel S. Amdur
December 2, 2012
Carleton University's effort at promoting intergroup harmony has been received on campus with something less than universal applause. The report of the Commission on Inter-Cultural, Inter-Religious and Inter-Racial relations on Campus relies on a survey of students, faculty, and employees. The Commission was chaired by former Senator Landon Pearson. An immediate issue arises with the response rate. Fewer than 12% of the students responded. Does that response rate itself tell us something? Perhaps that the concerns explored in the study were simply not salient, that people were not concerned? Then there is the question of sheer numbers. The report gives particular attention to Jews. Yet there were only 29 Jewish employees and 28 Jewish students in the sample.

Fantino Hanky-Panky?Reuel S. Amdur
May 22, 2012
Ma Bell, controlling much of Ottawa's English-language broadcast universe, got rid of Michael Harris, its one non-ultra-right talk show host, but fortunately he has managed to resurface. He has had recent posts on iPolitics, taking aim at Harperites in general and Associate Defence Minister Julian Fantino in particular.

Fayoum: The Nile creates a paradise by going undergroundProf. Dr. Mohamed Elmasry
June 18, 2012
Approximately 100 kms southwest of Cairo sits the Fayoum area. It is a vast depression within the Western desert, averaging some 50 meters below sea level, about 18,000 square kilometers in area. It was formed 190 - 136 million years ago and over the years turned into a green paradise by the Nile's underground water.
