Oh, brother. It's another instance of the "free speech for me but not for thee" syndrome that runs amok on college campuses.
This time the victim is Israeli ambassador Michael Oren, who was invited to speak by the political science department and law school of UC Irvine. His speech was systematically and rudely interrupted. 11 disruptive students have been arrested. I have no sympathy for them AT ALL.
UPDATE: In a nutshell: "So, we are back to the foundational belief that free speech ought not to apply to anybody who expresses views the campus left dislikes."
