...went to my first Undergraduate Council meeting last night after discovering that the bill calling for the council to condemn my punishment was to be discussed. I met the directors of the bill for the first time, who explained to me how the council works. When it was time for the bill to be introduced, Jones and Ceryak gave me a chance to speak.

But why didn't they object to the air strikes on southern Iraq in 1993 and 1994? Why didn't they condemn the bombing of Erbil? The Arab countries condemned the chemical-weapons bombing of Halabja in 1988, which killed 4,000 Kurds, including children and women, and also the tragedy of Anfal, when 182,000 people disappeared. The Arab countries have never accepted the Kurds as a nation. But the Arab countries joined...
