But what are the *substantive* arguments against Varadarajan's article?

For the kum-ba-yah statements of the people quoted in this article to come from the mouths of intellectuals at a university is truly shameful.

Academics should be dedicated to truth. How about going through Varadarajan's column, sentence by sentence, and discussing whether the words are true are not? Wouldn't that be more productive, not to mention honest, than random spoutings about "injustice" and "standing up for rights?"
