University of Illinois Palestinian professor, sacked for his unprofessional tweets, demands he is given his job back

(Illinois) American-born Steven Salaita, a professor of Jordanian and Palestinian parents at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, was sacked the other week due to his open (and very public) hostility towards Israel.  Has demanded — yes, demanded — that the university reinstate him, by defending his vapid tweets against everybody bar Islamic terrorists by citing free speech and academic freedom.

However, the university said it was standing by its decision to withdraw Steven Salaita's professorship over his pro-Palestine, anti-Israel (and anti-American) racist tweets which it has said were uncivil and demeaning.

So what did Steven Salaita tweet which the University found offensive?








Anybody else notice the typical Arab not-one-word-of-condemnation about ISIS, Syria, Iraq, Yemen?

Seeing as he hates the US so much, I wonder if he will move lock stock and barrel to the Middle East. Nah, typical left-wing prick, happy to bitch from the sidelines.

He's a stupid loudmouth. Hope he likes working at the convenience store from here on in.
The truth of the matter is, of course, different from what Steven Salaita claims... He wasn't sacked from his job... In fact, he hadn't had a job at the university yet...

He was in the process of getting a job at the university... The process hadn't been completed yet and the university chose to not continue it... As is their right!...

So Steven Salaita can demand all he wants but his demands are for publicity reasons only... He doesn't have a leg to stand on... Now, if he had waited for tenure but that's a completely different story...
