Dhimmi Northwestern University pays the Jizya
When I first saw the headlines for this story I thought they were satirical.
They are not.
I think Northwestern has actually succeeded in out-dhimmi-ing Columbia, which is saying something:
In the face of illegal “encampments” and violence, the Northwestern administrators put out a jubilant statement announcing that scholarships will be provided for “Palestinians” along with a building set aside for Muslim students.
“Most notable among those concessions is a promise to offer full-ride scholarships to Palestinian students and guaranteed faculty jobs for Palestinian academics.
“The University will support visiting Palestinian faculty and students at risk (funding two faculty per year for two years; and providing full cost of attendance for five Palestinian undergraduates to attend Northwestern for the duration of their undergraduate careers),” the document reads. “The University commits to fundraise to sustain this program beyond this current commitment.” …
Northwestern will also provide a “house for MENA/Muslim students” and will “advise employers not to rescind job offers for students engaging in speech protected by the First Amendment.”
Other concessions in the deal Schill and the rest of Northwestern’s leadership struck with the encampment occupants — one of whom assaulted a student journalist attempting to take video — include student oversight of the university’s partnerships with suppliers and the investment of its endowment.
In case you’ve not read up on your Muslim history, here’s what the Jizya is:
[In the] Arab-Islamic empire … a basic hierarchy between three groups emerged relatively early: at the top were (Muslim) believers, at the bottom of the hierarchy were unbelievers who should be fought, and there emerged an intermediate category of non-Muslims who had entered into an agreement with the Islamic state. Those in the third category were governed by a set of laws known as a pact, or dhimma in Arabic, and were called collectively ahl al-dhimma—literally “People of the Pact”—or just dhimmis. …
In exchange for the protection of the Islamic state, dhimmis were expected to pay a special tax, called the jizya. A document known as the Pact of ‘Umar spelled out the details of the agreement between the Islamic state and the dhimmis in considerable detail. … The Pact of ‘Umar lays out a variety of sumptuary laws, meaning laws whose ostensible purpose was to distinguish non-Muslims from Muslims in social interactions, place limits on non-Muslim behavior, and emphasize the social superiority of Muslims.
Northwestern is acting like conquered territory. But it goes beyond that. Not only are the university administrators signaling their own weakness and the weakness of their campus, and not only are they emboldening future Islamicist extremists and discouraging their own Jewish students and those who support them, but they are telling Hamas that attacks like October 7 give huge benefits all around the world.
Nice job, Northwestern! I hope every person who donates to the university informs them they won’t be seeing any more of their money. Of course, Soros may take up the slack.
Reality continues to mug the Jewish community. Certain naïve assumptions about personal safety must be rethought and discarded for the sake of survival. I fervently hope this is rapidly done.

It’s _hard_ to turn your back on a lifetime of emotional investment in something that makes up part of your self-identity. A liberal/secular Jew who has voted Democrat for a lifetime, and who has emotional investment in that as an identity…going against that comes hard. There’s a deep desire to believe it’s ‘all a misunderstanding’, just a temporary thing.
As our esteemed hostess can confirm, that sort of acceptance and change comes very, very hard.
We’ve already seen some Jewish Dems asking ‘How can we make them understand?’
The answer, of course, is that they already understand, they just _hate you_.
The Northwestern capitulation _could_ be a case of dreamy ignorance. I’ve encountered that in the past in discussions with liberals and lefties. I recall years ago an on-line discussion where an intelligent (in an IQ test sense) liberal cited an article of an Islamist charter calling for mutual tolerance, apparently he never bothered to read the part where the key to such tolerance was acceptance of dhimmitude. It was right there in the text, but he was citing it based on a second-hand source.
The same sort of thing showed up when a mostly Muslim city council said the town would not fly the Pride flag, and liberals were shocked that they would do exactly what their religion calls for. Where was their solidarity?
So it _could_ be cluelessness. It’s at least as likely, though, that the administration of Northwestern already _wanted_ to do this stuff, and the protests and their demands provide the excuse. Notice what it _doesn’t_ promise, to divest. That would cost them something, it could cut into their profits and cash flow. They didn’t agree to do that.
Between the amount of foreign funding flowing into academia, and the ’68er’ leanings already present, if anything the surprise is how few universities are giving in, not how many.
So the other students will be safe and secure when these peaceful Palis come on campus?
I would hope that there are at least a few sensible parents that will say “No Way are you going to NW”. Notice I said a few.
I applied for admission to Northwestern’s freshman class, was accepted, but chose not to go. Northwestern’s decision to become Dhimmi U shows that, decades before, I made the correct decision to not attend Northwestern. 🙂
Where are the stout-hearted men?
Many don’t like the machismo of DJT, but that’s exactly what we need in this country right now. The POTUS should be on the TV telling the college administrators that unless they stop the illegal protests, there will be no more federal money nor loans for students, and money from foreign nations will be banned from U.S, colleges.
In addition, the FBI should be investigating the financing of these illegal protests. These are not grass roots protests, they’re too well financed. Go after the moneybags and throw the protestors in jail at least as zealously as they did the Jan, 6 rioters. Get some spine.

This is the most sickening development since the Oct 7 attack. This is just sickening. I’m just so angry about it. Something must be done.
My dad was a football star at NU — a football scholarship recipient. His college football career was cut short by the attack on Pearl Harbor. He immediately joined the navy and served for the duration, mostly in the Pacific. He passed a few years ago. He must be rolling in his grave.
Something must be done.
Speaking of DJT and reality,
Trump: ‘I’m Not Sure a Two-State Solution Anymore Is Gonna Work’
Trump said a two-state solution between Israel and the Palestinians – a bedrock of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East – was probably no longer feasible.
“I’m not sure a two-state solution anymore is gonna work,” Trump said. The animosity between Israelis and the Palestinians, (is) so intense it makes a two-state solution “very, very tough.”
The Soros connection was not unexpected, however, it’s been known for years that Muslim countries are funding universities and endowing departments and chairs, and that some universities covet, if not actually depend on, the full-tuition-paying Muslim students.
Where’s Charles Martel when you need him?
”It’s _hard_ to turn your back on a lifetime of emotional investment in something that makes up part of your self-identity.”
But why does a *political party* make up such a strong part of your self identity? I could understand a family, or a religion, or even a nation doing so. But a political party? That makes no sense.
The “Two-State Solution” was never going to work.
It was a ploy from the get-go.
But it sounded so reasonable, so possible…that it had to be attempted.
(Because don’t we all want basically the same thing????)
In any event, the diplomatic pressure to “do something!!!” was inexorable and at that point in time of the I-P conflict impossible to oppose on the international stage.
There were quite a few who did insist that you can’t make any kind of meaningful peace with those who want to annihilate you, against whom the bright-eyed purveyors of hope and similar delusions issued the vapid but seemingly unassailable pablum: “You make peace with those who hate you, not those who like you”, yadda, yadda, yadda.
To be sure, one side defined “peace” in its conventional sense; the other defined it as “Peace of the brave” in Arabic, extolling the Prophet Mohammed’s stratagem of “hudna “—used to effectively conquer the more powerful Jewish tribe in Arabia—as his template.
Officially, Arafat referred to the long-term strategy as the “phased destruction” of his Partners in Peace”.
His followers understood him well; though Edward Said, righteous in his hatred and pure in his ideology, objected vociferously to any accommodation with the Zionists.
(Or perhaps he just didn’t understand the significance of Khaybar…)
Of course, the West heaved a sigh of effete relief while many Israel looked ahead with delusions of hope.
And so here we are…
Arafat was a genius….
“But why does a *political party* make up such a strong part of your self identity? I could understand a family, or a religion, or even a nation doing so. But a political party? That makes no sense.”
That’s hard to explain to someone who hasn’t been there, either himself or having seen it. Yeah, if you look at political parties purely rationally, as ‘election winning machines’, it doesn’t make sense. But human beings are a-rational (which is not the same as irrational).
Humans are tribal. Instinctively, innately, biologically tribal. We tend to invest our identity in groups, because that’s how our ancestors _survived_ for thousands of generations, people who were too independent-minded died before they could reproduce and pass on those genes, or teach those attitudes to their offspring.
(Selection effects apply both to genes and cultural attitudes.)
Political parties can become part of an identity when all your relatives are vocally so, or vocally against the other one. If your parents were ‘x’, and your spouse is ‘x’, and all your friends are ‘x’, there’s a natural human tendency to try to line up one’s identity with their traits. That tendency is much stronger in some people than in others, of course, but it’s nearly universal to some degree. Voting for the Other Guys feels like you’re betraying your parents, your friends, your _tribe_.
The exact same biological tribal tendency can make people passionate to the point of violence about ball teams. It’s why all the kids in the local high school _must_ wear certain things and not wear certain other things. It’s why peer pressure works, for good and for ill.
To make it worse, if you perceive the other party as a serious, literal _threat_ to your safety, your wealth, or whatever, your own party becomes a safety zone, a source of protection, which feeds the tribal tendency.
For decades, the GOP suffered from the perception that they were the ‘party of the rich’ on the part of the working class, while the Dems were seen as the party of the little guy.
On its face, this is nonsense, _both_ major parties are dominated by wealthy people and have been forever. But what people actually _meant_ by ‘party of the rich’, whether they consciously thought it out in detail or not, was the the GOP was the ‘party of the employer’, the ‘party of the boss’, the ‘party of big business’, and the Dems’ policies favored the employee.
From the 1930s to the 1970s, there was a _lot_ of truth in that. In the 1970s the Dems abandoned the working class in favor of the gentry liberals, 1972 was the turning point. But it took a long time for a lot of people who grew up taking it for granted that the GOP was their enemy and the Dems their protector to accept that they had been abandoned.
(And the GOP made it worse by their continual pursuit of corporate goals like free trade and unlimited open borders immigration. The Dems had abandoned the working class and the GOP refused to take advantage of that. They’d talk the talk, some, but they actually governed as the business party. Which is part of why Trump exploded onto the scene like a nova in 2016 and they couldn’t stop him or even slow him down.)
Many liberal/secular Jews today have a deep _tribal_ identification with the Dems, who they see as their protector/expression. It’s _terrifying_ to realize that your allies have turned on you. You don’t want it to be true. You try desperately to tell yourself it’s not. That human biological _need_ to identify with your tribe gets in your way when your tribe rejects you, the first instinct is to try to convince the tribe that they shouldn’t be rejecting you, to ‘make them understand’.
Human nature is frustrating, inconvenient, maddening. But it’s the raw material of politics. Trying to make policy or win a political struggle while ignoring human nature is like an engineer who ignores the properties of the materials he’s workng with.
“I’m gonna use pure pure silver as an electrical insulator in this machine, because I _need_ it to be an insulator.”
“But it’ll short out and blow up!”
“Not if I can convince the silver to insulate the current!”
Human nature is not much more flexible than the laws of physics.

The Egyptian dame in charge of Columbia has apparently given the green light to the NYPD to take out the trash. The New York Post reports that Hamilton Hall has been cleaned out and there have been dozens of arrests. Press charges and expel, please. BTW, the majority of students at Columbia are foreigners. When the correctional system is done with them, why not deport them?

Baloney. 😉 Tribal mentality = Herd mentality = Mob mentality.
Yes, a high percentage of humans always want to stay in or near the nest, but a high percentage of humans are also always looking to leave the nest.
Individuals and bands often left the tribe and often ending up preying on tribes – stealing their young women, animals, food, etc. Then those groups of individuals or bands would go back to their separate areas.
Tribes then came up with the ideas of LAWS to make the individuals and small bands criminals. Spare me the tribal mentality…
The triumph of hope over experience comes to the fore yet again. It will work out just as well as it always has. Conquests’ Second Law of Politics is, conversely, again validated. Although I suspect that Northwestern was already pretty well converged, this will be its eventual demise as an institution with any Western Civilizational values at its core. Henceforth it will be more and more subsumed into the umma. It will be interesting, nonetheless to observe the conflict that must arise between its “woke” values–feminism, trans “rights,” “anti-racism” and all the rest–and traditionall islamic dogma. Talk about a matter and anti-matter collision!
Well, one positive is that universities are now self idenitifying as to which ones may be worth* attending and which ones are not.
* For various values of “worth.”
Western Europe is already beyond salvation. Islam is beginning to kill America. Wake up
Stewart-
I just don’t see the waking up part. Been hearing it for years. The country has adopted nihilism as it’s central value and will ride it to the end.

I’m fine with NWern and now Brown capitulating to the rabble. Others will follow.
Let every U reveal its true nature.
High school students who want to get an education, to be able to go to class without having to deal with avowed enemies of Western Civilization, will be able to make a shorter list of potential places to apply.
Brown, NW, et. al., will attract a certain type of applicant.
Serious students, donors, and employers will know where to avoid.
There was a line Tom Clancy used in many of his books: “Once you pay the danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.”
Northwestern is going to learn that.
Just FYI, the dane-geld quote is by Rudyard Kipling — of course. From his poem “Dane-geld”:
“It is always a temptation for a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say: –
“Though we know we should defeat you,
we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”
“And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.”
Already students are applying to schools in the South which are not tolerating this insanity. And employers are beginning to downgrade Ivy League degrees, looking elsewhere for new hires.
Appeasement doesn’t work long-term. Danegeld and jizya establish a subordinate relationship. Northwestern U. is signing its death warrant.
Some years back the latest Northwestern U magazine arrived in the mail, Stephen Colbert on the cover.
Swell.
Inside, a my-kingdom-for-a-vomit-bag piece, nothing less than hagiographic.
Was his the last white face splashed on that rag’s cover? Just seems so, I guess..
Meantime my Conservaitve++ Columbia-grad nephew and his Leftist++ Wildcat (ideological as well as educational) spouse somehow keep on keepin’ on. A few years back, when he persistently lobbied their daughter’s Quaker school to now and then sprinkle a conservative speaker such as (the late) Walter Williams into its uniformly southpaw ragout of guest presenters, a coven of female teachers and administrators, monsters all, demanded the school banish both my nephew and his middle-school child from its pristine precincts, even going so far as to warn my nephew’s employer of the moral worm lurking in its midst.
O tempora…
Pete’s Buttigieg’s dad would be thrilled. He as the leading Gramsci “scholar” in the US. The Gramscian March through the institutions has been a giant success.

I would also like that to happen, but it’s not likely to happen. Follow the money. Most foreign students pay full ticket. You don’t expel those who are paying full ticket. Instead, you coddle them. Moreover, expelling foreign students will lead to fewer foreign students applying.
These universities are run by spineless jellyfish.

Barack Obama, fundamentally transforming America. Praise him with great praise.
I should not have had to be reminded, but Thanks Northwestern, for reminding me why I have voted against the Democratic party since 2002…
Popularity equals conformity.

“Other concessions in the deal Schill and the rest of Northwestern’s leadership struck with the encampment occupants — one of whom assaulted a student journalist attempting to take video — include student oversight of the university’s partnerships with suppliers and THE INVESTMENT OF ITS ENDOWMENT.”
A simple web search has the endowment at $13Billion – that’s right BILLION. This is modest compared to Yale, Harvard, etc. Allowing students access and / or influence over the endowmenet can only lead to disaster. Once it is done, it cannot be un-done.
Yes, I know that university endowments are typically heavily loaded with large investments in assets with limited liquidity such as the real estate the school itself sits on, etc. That doesn’t change the dynamics of the situation.
Barry+Meislin says “The ‘Two-State Solution’ was never going to work.
It was a ploy from the get-go.”
TRUE. But don’t tell the EU. They are set to “recognize” the Palestinian state by the end of May. So I read today somewhere.
Ghastly and Damning.
As he says, THIS is the worst blow since Oct 7 — l feel the same way.
My grand daughter visited last night on her way home from U of Alabama . She loves it there and will be a senior next fall. She and her father chose well. “The Attack” has a chapter about Northwestern.
Northwestern is going to have to allow, informally, mistreatment of its Jewish students, faculty, or other employees.
And perhaps of nearby Jewish-owned businesses. See Oberlin and Gibson’s Bakery.
It will feel good for a while….

To join with others from similar nests within their tribe, usually.
“Individuals and bands often left the tribe and often ending up preying on tribes – stealing their young women, animals, food, etc. Then those groups of individuals or bands would go back to their separate areas.” — Karmi
And that vast majority of those predatory individuals formed up into temporary tribes to do their work, groups temporarily or permanently held together by those same group instincts. The true loner is not an effective raider in the first place.

Sorry, there’s no escape, you will not be spared. There’s nowhere you can go and nothing you can do to escape from human nature.
There’s an old self-flattering line libertarians like to use that goes: “Herding Democrats is like herding sheep, herding Republicans is like herding cats, herding Libertarians is unheard of.”
Which is half of why libertarians are almost _irrelevant_ politically.

This is just one aspect, or symptom, of the problem. The problem is a ruling international elite class that no longer identifies with their own nations or societies, or their own heritage. Ever since the 70s, they’ve worked to tear down borders and limits.
In their minds, the future is supposed to look like the old John Lennon song, _Imagine_, or the old Coke Christmas commercials with the multiracial multiethnic young people singing about teaching the world to sing. They simply can’t reconcile the reality of irreconcilable groups with that, so they block it out and pretend, and try to keep their revenue streams going.
” Other concessions in the deal Schill and the rest of Northwestern’s leadership struck with the encampment occupants — one of whom assaulted a student journalist attempting to take video — include student oversight of the university’s partnerships with suppliers and THE INVESTMENT OF ITS ENDOWMENT.” — Roll-aid
Which means what exactly in practice? Does student oversight mean a promise of consultation, and if so with who specifically? Or does it mean actual authority? What actual commitments have the NW administration and trustees made about those investments?
I’ve noticed in the past that when money is involved, idealistic academic groups can be rather devious and cynical.

Guess the early solitary persons or couples who came to America don’t fall under your “usually” scenario. Same for all the others who have moved to new lands throughout human history…

As with regard to Jews and democratic party, I speak as an outsider. I heard about tikkun olam, if that’s the spelling, quite late in life.
To the extent this is a part of Jewish culture, even if ethnic-only, I suspect it is more explicit than “do unto others” or the Sermon on The Mount.
If so, it may have a greater effect on the personality than the other two.
However, it is not only Jews who seem to be amenable to buying any policy with a surface sale schtick of doing good in some cosmic sense.
I can take or leave a conservative or republican idea without an effect on my personal wonderfulness index. I am separate from it.
But watching liberals (not) struggle with such issues is illuminating. They don’t seem to think they can afford to leave the company of the Very Good People, policy results notwithstanding.
So it’s different from the above -postulated tribalism. IMHO.
West Texas. Yeah. After this sorting-out, the likelihood of being correct in judging someone by his alma mater is much higher. Not perfect, of course, but perhaps sufficient to allow one to save time.
Which, I suspect, will have a result on the alma mater in question. Fewer and fewer normies will go there, thus exaggerating the effect. Until they fold.
Yep those early adopters of freedom in America rowed across the Atlantic or sailed in a tiny coracle? Rugged anarchists all!
Land bridges, coastal boats, “skin boats,” Lapita boats, double-hulled canoes – maybe some even walked on water to get to America. Lots of people just sought solitude and/or a simple family life away from the Tribal groupies – throughout human history.
It’s a nice thought, Karmi, but most migrations are with groups. Individuals may decide to go, but they do so with a group, or to join one. Mountain men and voyageurs were exceptions, not the rule.
Kate – sure, bands or a smaller group, but these people are not looking to join another tribe. They may travel in a group or band, and then move on after reaching a destination.
Many illegal Immigrants now are looking for jobs and not some tribe to join.
My point is that many people are probably more family focused than Tribal focused.
I suspect that there are also a lot more hermits than just me…
The Tikkun Olam-ers would seem to have left The Almighty out of the equation.
Making things better? Well, OK.
Making things perfect? Um, watch out!…
(More egregiously, they seem to—SOMEHOW—have forgotten the bit about where “Best Intentions”(TM) all too often lead….probably because they were way too busy trying to enable everyone to achieve breath-taking self-fulfillment, to get them all into Heaven-on-Earth…)
Messianism can be problematic enough; but if God is relegated to the sidelines it is going to cause problems. Huge problems…especially if Dear Leader (or even, if at first, dear leader) seeks perfection. Demands perfection. BELIEVES that he/she/it is god-like or God’s special representative on earth. The Almighty’s special gift to humanity….
Because we’ve BEEN THERE, DONE THAT…countless times…far, far too often…big scale and small…with Bringers-of-Nirvana(TM) from all sides of the political (and religious) spectra doing—intending—their absolute best, you can count on it.
So that one might think/believe/assume that folks would remember those failed—um, no, let’s call them “catastrophic”—episodes…especially Liberals, ESPECIALLY JEWS…especially since the two major Twentieth-Century eruptions of “perfection” happened not all that long ago…but hey, perfection, and the search for it, is a heady brew: the—SHHH! Don’t mention this to ANYONE!!—pursuit of raw, total, power under the guise of wonderfully BENEVOLENT intentions: HELPING EVERYONE! HEALING EVERYONE! FIXING EVERYTHING! IMPROVING SOCIETY! HEALING THE PLANET…! (everyone, that is, that agrees to be helped, healed, fixed, improved…)
…keeping in mind—ALWAYS—Ronald Reagan’s “Nine Most Terrifying Words”(TM)…in combination with the injunction of the First Commandment…(even if—especially if?—one is NOT a believer…)
