Zuhdi Jasser Blasts MESA for Trying to Suppress ISIS Documents

In his latest podcast (about 39 minutes in), Zuhdi Jasser blasts the Middle East Studies Association (MESA)'s “Orwellian” support for suppressing information on ISIS by objecting to the New York Times reporting on Iraqi documents. He also highlights MESA’s apologias for Middle Eastern dictatorships and its anti-Israel biases, noting the criticism of Middle East Forum President Daniel Pipes, Martin Kramer, and Michael Rubin. As Jasser puts it, “MESA should be shuttered.”
