Ali Abunimah is Director of electronicintifada.net, an independent online news publication and educational resource focusing on Palestine. He joins us from Chicago to discuss the much publicized case of Ken Roth, who was denied a Harvard fellowship for expressing some criticism of Israel while director of Human Rights Watch.
