"Unfortunately today, these neoconservatives whose philosophy is that intellectuals should be in the service of tyrants who rule using big lies and mass murder," said Kevin Barrett, who has a Ph.D in Arab and Islamic studies and is one of America's best-known critics of the so-called war on terror. "They have taken over the academy and they don't belong in the academy," Barrett told Press TV on Monday. "Transparency and freedom are the ideals of the academy; because the neoconservatives reject these ideals, they have no business in the academy."
On Saturday, an American female professor at a Christian university who got in trouble after wearing the hijab and saying Muslims and Christians worship the same God has agreed to leave the school.
Wheaton College, located near Chicago, Illinois, and political science professor Larycia Hawkins have reached a confidential agreement in which they will "part ways," the college said in a statement. "This seems to be a very strange kind of phenomenon that a professor should not be allowed to teach at a university," said Barret, who himself was fired from the University of Wisconsin for accusing the US government of being involved in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
"The whole idea is ludicrous but apparently not in Wheaton College, where Islamophobia appears to be mandatory," he added. "Anyone who doesn't hate Muslims with all their heart and soul apparently is not welcome to teach at Wheaton College. It's a disgrace and an outrage and travesty and anybody who cares about freedom in America should head straight to Chicago to protest, to go and occupy the offices of the administration [of Wheaton College] there."
