These efforts polarize campuses, inflame existing tensions and intimidate students. In light of the previous academic year…
Engage students in understanding and exploring cyberbullying and the issues raised by online bullying.
October 15, 2014 When planning a special event, either on site or off site, it is important that consideration be given to the safety and security of the attendees.

September 24, 2014 The Metropolitan Opera’s production of The Death of Klinghoffer has once again thrust this highly controversial and deeply flawed John Adams opera into the news.

Or, put another way, in one month Google - the company which Eric steered as CEO for more than a decade and now serves as Executive Chairman – handles over a 100 billion searches. Wow!
Added to that almost 6 billion hours of video on Google-owned YouTube are…

Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious. It needs all sincere efforts. It is a step that inevitably should be followed by other steps. The Movement is but one squadron that should be supported by more and more squadrons from this vast Arab and Islamic world, until the enemy is vanquished and Allah's victory is realised.
Article Seven
The Islamic Resistance Movement is one of the links in the chain of the struggle against the Zionist…

His Excellency Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
President of the Republic of Turkey
Dear Mr. President,

August 19, 2014 A new English-language publication has been released by Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). Titled “Palestine: Betrayal of the Guilty Conscience,” the publication uses the recent conflict in Gaza as an excuse to renew the group’s call for lone-wolf attacks in the U.S. and the U.K.
AQAP has regularly issued such calls for lone-wolf attacks in the past, including just a few days ago when it urged followers to attack the U.S. in retaliation for military…

August 12, 2014 For the past number of years, the Hamas terrorist organization has constructed deep underground tunnels leading from Gaza into Israel and the Sinai desert. The primary purpose of the Gaza-Sinai tunnels is to smuggle in weapons - including missiles and rockets – goods, and people from Egypt into Gaza.
The Gaza-Israel tunnels have a singular, and much more nefarious purpose, namely to serve as a Hamas entry point into Israel in order to kill and kidnap Israeli civilians…

by: Jeff Robbins | August 01, 2014 Worcester Telegram & Gazette The Middle East is riddled with conflicts that are truly complicated — in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Lebanon, Egypt and between Israel and the Palestinians, for example.
Hamas' war against Israel, however, is not complicated at all.
Hamas, a jihadist enterprise, is doctrinally committed to killing Jews and to the elimination of Israel altogether. Its Charter is chilling in its lack of ambiguity on this score. And its…
August 01, 2014 A widely circulated rumor suggests that the owners of Edible Arrangements, a company that sells fruit baskets through a series of privately owned franchises across the country, are “funding Hamas” through a charitable foundation they support. Several ideologically motivated online sites are urging consumers to boycott the company due to their “ties to terrorism."
In fact, there is absolutely no truth to these unfounded assertions. While the…
by: Gary Jones | July 18, 2014 New Haven Register In the past week and a half, Hamas, the governing body of Gaza and a terrorist group as designated by both the United States government and European Union, has fired more than 1,300 missiles at Israel with the specific intention of murdering innocent civilians. Two-thirds of Israel’s civilian population — Jews, Muslims, Christians and others — are now directly threatened and unplanned refuge in bomb shelters has become a…

July 02, 2014 Various individuals and groups that comprise the domestic anti-Israel movement in the United States -- who often pay lip service to principles of justice, human dignity and nonviolence -- have gone conspicuously silent in the wake of the tragic murder of three Israeli teenage boys, Naftali Fraenkel, Gilad Shaar and Eyal Yifrach, following their kidnapping by Hamas terrorists on June 12.
The bodies of the Israelis were discovered on Monday, June 30, after an 18-day search…
