CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 18, 2023
ARE YOU SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THE SUPPOSED SPONTENEITY OF SO MANY ANTI-ISRAEL AND ANTI-JEWISH DEMONSTRATIONS AROUND THE COUNTRY AND WORLD?
I WASN’T SURPRISED TO LEARN THEY ARE ANYTHING BUT SPONTANEOUS. THE WASHINGTON TIMES REPORTS THE SAME AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES THAT ARE SEEN AS BREEDING GROUNDS FOR ANTISEMETISM HAVE TAKEN BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN PREVIOUSLY UNDISCLOSED DONATIONS FROM THE MIDDLE EAST.
RECENT REPORTS OF MIDDLE EASTERN NATIONS DONATING MONEY INTO HIGHER EDUCATION PROMPTED THE HOUSE TO PASS BIPARRTISAN LEGISLATION TOUGHENING UP FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS. PREDICTABLY, THE AMERICAN COUNCIL ON EDUCATION HAS PROTESTED, SAYING THE LEGISLATION WOULD CURTAIL INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH AS WELL AS CULTURAL AND ACADEMIC EXCHANGES.
ANYONE WHO THINKS THESE DONOR NATIONS DON’T WANT A RETURN ON THEIR MONEY THAT REFLECTS THEIR VIEWS IS DELUSIONAL. CHINA IS ALSO FUNNELING MONEY TO U.S. UNIVERSITIES, UNDERWRITING ITS CONFUCIUS INSTITUTES.
PEOPLE AND MONEY ARE POURING INTO AMERICA FOR THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF DESTROYING US. IT’S UP TO CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT TO STOP IT. THE QUESTION IS, WILL THEY? I’M CAL THOMAS.
