While critical in some respects of the "hardball" way in which the investigation and the 1981 trial had been conducted, he nonetheless concluded that all attorneys involved, myself included, had acted honestly, ethically, and in good faith, never once knowingly concealing or misrepresenting any fact that we had a duty to disclose. He concluded that "this case is more about imperfection than perfidy to justice," and that all OSI attorneys on the Demjanjuk case "are now, and were then, principled, albeit fallible...

And they would fight to the death to defend their lands from encroachment...

Not all rivals for the fruits of education are convinced that such an invidious system would be fair play. Some black intellectuals who have a stronger faith in self-reliance have argued that competing minorities would be better off raising their own academic standards rather than clamping a lid on Asian-American industriousness...
