amazing how witzel, aunty 573, the diva, sibal, et al all speak with one mind about censorship. simple: they want censorship for anybody they do not agree with.
anybody remember chaitanya kunte?
anyway witzel is an excellent example of the US leftist academia's tendency to a) have tender feelings for islam/islamists, b) have total derision for hindus.
i do believe this has something to do with money, too.
it would be good to find out the money trail from ghulam ahmed fai to US universities. similarly the money trail from bible-thumping foundations and trusts and so on to harvard and chicago and other bastions of hate speech against anybody who non-abrahamics. if someone gives witzel an academic sinecure somewhere else (harvard is slowly shutting down its sanskrit dept) i am pretty sure he will sing a different tune.

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Indo-Eurasian_research/message/15626Dear List, Just to inform you about the insidious Subramanian Swami, head of the minuscule
Janata Party in India, and once ---decades ago-- Associate Professor of
Economics at Harvard. The Faculty Meeting of the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences voted this
afternoon almost unanimously (against 3-4 counter votes) to remove the Harvard
Summer School classes of Subramanian Swamy from our roster. The prevailing
reason, expressed by several faculty members, was his hate speech last Summer
against Muslims and other minorities In India. The case should be reported tomorrow in the University's student newspaper, the
Harvard Crimson.

S
ee however Wikipedia: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subramanian_Swamy>: Reaction to 2011 Mumbai bombings In response to the 2011 Mumbai bombings, he wrote an editorial in Daily News and
Analysis(DNA) claiming that "Muslims of India are being programmed by a slow
reactive process to become radical and thus slide into suicide against Hindus".
He then set out a programme for dealing with this alleged threat, including
repealing Article 370 of the Constitution of India (which granted special
autonomous status to Jammu and Kashmir), removing the Gyanvapi Mosque atKashi
Vishwanath Temple and other mosques at Hindu temples, disenfranchising
non-Hindus who refuse to acknowledge their Hindu ancestry, prohibiting
conversion from Hinduism to other religions, and annexing part of Bangladesh in
retaliation for Bangladeshi illegal immigration in India.[15]. Swamy had written
a similar column in The New Indian Express after the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
More tomorrow when the final vote counts are in. Michael Cheers,
