Terrorism and Notre Dame "University"

Notre Dame "University" is best known for its football team. Academically it is tenth rate and not on anyone's radar screen for serious research.

It is also home to the Kroc Institute, an anti-American pro-terror anti-Jewish institute funded by the Kroc fortune (as in McDonald's hamburgers). Kroc funds Marxist activities at Notre Dame and elsewhere and was the financial sponsor trying to bring in Tariq Ramadan, a Swiss Arab anti-Semite with ties to al-Qaeda. Kroc wanted him to teach at Notre Dame. The US refused to give him a visa.
Kroc and Notre Dame are still in the news. Take a look at www. frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=16936
which documents the whole saga.

But there is another interesting side to this. Neve Gordon, the anti-Semitic political science lecturer from Ben Gurion University, who believes that criticism of his political extremism constitutes libel, got his PhD from Notre Dame and was funded at least in part by the same Kroc Institute.

In particular, the Kroc Institute financed Gordon's "research paper" in which he claims to prove that Israel is a terrorist state. That paper came out as a "Kroc Paper". While at Notre Dame, Gordon spent his time bashing Israel and opposing free speech for people with whom he disagrees, such as George Bush.
