Anti-American studies

The New Neo Posted on January 26, 2026 by neoJanuary 26, 2026

The New Neo Posted on December 19, 2025 by neoDecember 19, 2025

Many long years ago – perhaps thirty-five? – I read an article describing what was being taught in schools in Palestine, and it made my blood run cold. I don’t recall what periodical it was in, but it certainly wasn’t … Continue reading →

The New Neo Posted on July 2, 2025 by neoJuly 2, 2025

The New Neo Posted on May 30, 2025 by neoMay 30, 2025

Trump against Harvard; judges against Trump

The New Neo Posted on May 23, 2025 by neoMay 23, 2025

Who is Mohsen Mahdawi (sometimes spelled Madawi), what’s he been doing here, and why was he detained at his citizenship appointment?

The New Neo Posted on April 15, 2025 by neoApril 15, 2025

Khalili, legal residents, free speech, and supporting terrorist organizations

The New Neo Posted on March 11, 2025 by neoMarch 11, 2025

As one might expect, the left is very upset at the government’s attempt to deport green card holder and Hamas-friendly former Columbia student Mahmoud Khalili. Senator Kennedy, Louisiana Republican, summarizes the case quite well here: Well, Mr. Khalil will receive … Continue reading →
