For background on this case, read Scott Sherman's recent Nation magazineinvestigation of anti-Semitism at Columbia.
http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i=20050404&s=sherman
And read The Nation's related editorial, "The Captive Mind," which finds the suppression of "anti-American" dissent in the academy a disconcerting feature of political life since the Bush Administration took power.

Nonetheless, the Bush Administration is charging full-speed ahead with CAFTA, aproposed trade pact between the US and five Central American countries, which,to quote a report from Public Citizen’s Global Trade Watch, "would serve to pushahead the corporate globalization model that has caused the 'race to the bottom'in labor and environmental standards and would promote privatization andderegulation of key public services."
