Cut Funding for Institutions That Employ Terror-Apologist Richard Falk

"The outrageous report released this week by the U.N. Economic and Social Commission for Western ‎Asia -- which concludes 'beyond a reasonable doubt that Israel is guilty of policies and practices that ‎constitute the crime of apartheid' -- should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with its co-author, ‎Richard Falk.‎

This is not the first time that the former U.N. special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian ‎Territories has given bias a bad name. Indeed, throughout his career, the American legal 'scholar' has ‎shown a deep loathing for Western democracies, including his own, while not even attempting to ‎disguise his deep attraction to and affinity for evil Islamists...

Falk should have been discredited academically and politically ‎decades ago. Alas, people of his ilk, who purport to care about the issue of human rights while siding ‎with and apologizing for its greatest abusers, are not only immune to consequences, but are rewarded ‎with illustrious titles and lucrative positions.‎

Rather than beating our breasts every time the Falks of this world spew their mendacious vitriol, let us ‎instead disgrace -- and withhold financial support from -- the institutions that employ and promote ‎them." ‎
