[news] Israel Asper, Dan Freeman-Maloy and Sovietology

[Resist!ca]

By Macdonald Stainsby Dan Freeman-Maloy was summarily and without due process 
suspended from all campus activity at York University in Toronto last April. 
The nearly graduated, high-marks-earning  22 year old was charged with 
using a megaphone on campus (many other students were doing this, including 
Zionist-supporters). When Freeman-Maloy (a Jewish student who opposes Zionism 
and supports Palestinian rights) asked York University President Lorna Marsden 
(a Zionist and converted-through-marriage Jewish woman) for an appeal, the 
decision was said to be final-- interpreting that she could determine the 
suspension unilaterally and that no appeal could be granted. "Unauthorized 
sound amplification device", indeed! Well, Freeman-Maloy wasn't about to let 
his name become one of irony. He took the university to court.
