Pa. prof's anti-Israel remarks concern lawmakers

How would it go if someone called for the destruction of the Palestinians or the bombing of Mecca?

"Two Pennsylvania lawmakers are questioning officials at a state-supported university after a professor publicly called for the destruction of Israel.

In a letter Wednesday to the president of Lincoln University, state Sens. Daylin Leach and Anthony Williams ask if the professor is expressing anti-Semitic views on campus. Video of a Sept. 3 rally in Washington, D.C., shows tenured literature professor Kaukab Siddique saying Israel must be destroyed, "if possible by peaceful means."

A statement from Lincoln says officials are unaware of Siddique's "offensive views" being expressed on campus. Lincoln is a historically black university of about 2,000 students about 45 miles outside Philadelphia.
