Andy Martin Will Host Forum on Disinvesting in Israel
Is Israel the New 'South Africa?'
Is Harvard President Lawrence Summers the New 'Meir Kahane?'
Middle East Passions Inflame American Universities
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Nationally syndicated radio columnist Andy Martin, a candidate for the U.S. Senate from Florida, will host a special worldwide radio/Internet news conference edition of "Andy Martin's America" Thursday, November 21st at 1:00 P.M. to discuss whether American universities should condemn Israeli racism by disinvesting their investment portfolios from Israeli-related corporations.
"We now have an extremist pro-Israeli as President of Harvard, Larry Summers, an academic Meir Kahane," says Martin, "who censors pro-Palestinian speech but allows Alan Dershowitz to demand extermination of Palestinian women and children. Academic freedom has been raped at Harvard, and the University of South Florida in Tampa. But, at Harvard, Yale, Columbia and nationwide, American students are taking the battle for Palestinian liberation to the
colleges' investment committees. American has become a 'second front' in the war for Palestinian freedom.
"America's students are leading the way. I will work with them in my campaign to put Palestinian nationalism on the 2004 election agenda." Martin's controversial program "Andy Martin's America" is a fulcrum of foreign policy debate, political analysis and contemporary commentary on the Internet.
Martin's program draws an international audience and has included foreign diplomats as guests. He is a respected voice in America's intelligence community. He has traveled through the Middle East. His foreign experience includes Europe, Iran and Asia, and Air America. He is the only talk show host who supports Palestinian nationalism and the Israeli peace movement.
Martin consults in the areas of military security and intelligence; he studied under the late Bernard Fall and founded the Revolutionary War Research Center.
Martin served as an assistant to former Illinois U.S. Senator Paul H. Douglas. He has been involved in various aspects of broadcasting for 34 years. He also served as an adjunct professor of law at the City University of New York.
Martin's radio program "Andy Martin's America" covers national and international matters from 1-2 P.M. Radio call-in (800) 810-9727. Internet radio website 1340wpbr.com (click "on air"). See Out2.com (Govt. & Politics) for some earlier Martin statements.

“Tomorrow the bandages will come off,
I wonder, will I see half an oven? Half an apple?
Half my mother's face with my one remaining eye?
I did not see the bullet
But felt its pain exploding in my head.
his image did not disintegrate.
The soldier with his big gun and steady hands.
And the look in his eyes I could not understand. I can see him so clearly with my eyes closed,
It could be that inside our heads.”
From the Diary of an Almost 4-Year Old

“Look down at your people, stronger, more determined, more resolved by the minute.
Smile, Mohammed, at their epic resistance with you in it.
Hover over us and shade our brows and spread your angel wings from sea to river,
Embrace the land that’s yours forever.
Gaze down, Mohammed, at your nook from which your childhood assassins we’ll throw
And in it we promise you, of your blood and as beautiful as your face, a rose will grow.”
In Memory of Mohammed al-Durah
