UC Irvine: Pipes Talk Disrupted in California

Anti-Israel protesters at a California college disrupted a speech by academic Daniel Pipes. Video posted to the Internet shows a group of protesters at the University of California-Irvine, wearing keffiyahs and chanting anti-Israel slogans, disrupting the talk by Pipes, director of the Philadelphia-based Middle East Forum. Remaining audience members applauded as the hecklers were led out of the hall. Pipes, a conservative who is strongly supportive of Israel, has drawn criticism for arguing that the West is locked in a clash with radical Islamism, though he takes pains to distinguish this from mainstream Islam.
