The annual migration of the ISM
The International Solidarity Movement used to have their annual conference in the fall, but this year it got moved back a few months and will take place at Georgetown U next week.
I had been collecting links about the ISM for several years and poured them all into one blogpost in October 2004. If you want to be saturated in ISM history that's the place to go. Especially for the saga of the histrionic cultist Charlotte Kates, a short pasty-white motormouthed chick who is such a fanatic that the Arabs in the group disavowed her, causing a brief schism in the movement ("Splitters!"). You can watch Charlotte and her fellow ideologues strut their stuff in an early Brain Terminal video.
Georgetown seems to have a double standard about which organizations they roll out the red carpet for:
In 2005 the university's conference center refused to host an anti-terrorism conference sponsored by America's Truth Forum on the grounds that it was "too controversial." So why is free speech and expression of cardinal importance now? Perhaps it is related to the recent $20 million donation from Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal, a prominent financier of the families of Palestinian suicide bombers.
Gee, ya think?
