Zachary Lockman--a professor of Middle Eastern and Islamic studies at New York University (NYU) who, as Campus Watch noted last month, used the opportunity of an unrelated lecture to peddle “Israel Lobby” conspiracy theories that bordered on classical anti-Semitism--is among the Middle East studies faculty who signed an “NYU Out of Occupied Palestine” divestment petition to “end the Israeli occupation.” Lockman is #61 on the list; other signatories include: Benoit Challand, Assistant Professor of Kevorkian Center for Near Eastern Studies
