Opinion | America’s enemies justifiably believe our academic institutions and values are for sale – By Jason Whitlock (The Blaze) / Nov 8, 2023
We all have a price. We should not be surprised that our institutions do, too.
An organization called the Network Contagion Research Institute released a study on Tuesday arguing that authoritarian Middle Eastern regimes have funneled more than $13 billion to 200 American universities and colleges.
Its report is titled “The Corruption of the American Mind: How Concealed Foreign Funding of U.S. Higher Educations Predicts Erosion of Democratic Values and Antisemitic Incidents on Campus.”
Bari Weiss, the former New York Times reporter turned independent truth teller, wrote a piece explaining the impact of the foreign influence on America’s college campuses. She focused primarily on linking the study to the support for Hamas and Palestinians in the aftermath of Hamas’ deadly attack on Israeli citizens.
