WFB: A former Princeton historian is suing the Ivy League school, accusing officials of urging him to study in Iran in the wake of the nuclear deal and then leaving him to “rot” in a notorious torture prison after he was arrested on bogus espionage charges.
Xiyue Wang alleges Princeton sent him to Iran to study for his doctorate in early 2016 but did little to help free him after his arrest months later on charges of spying for the United States. Wang was arrested in Iran on Aug. 7, 2016, and sentenced to 10 years in the regime’s Evin Prison, where Iran holds its political prisoners. He was freed in December 2019 in a prisoner exchange with the United States.
In a lawsuit filed last month, Wang accuses Princeton of trying to keep his wife from publicizing his case following his arrest in order to protect its reputation and to maintain political ties in Iran. Wang blasted Princeton and its Iran Center for heeding the advice of “pro-regime activists and academics” before and after his arrest. Wang alleges that Princeton lawyers and administrators urged him not to seek refuge in the Swiss embassy in Tehran after he began to fear for his safety. more
Hmmm, sue another because of your own stupidity??
If you’re dumb enough to travel to certain countries then go at your own risk.
Although I’m sure you’ll get an education as to what the liberal democrats are striving for.
… and you believed the socialist libtards at Princeton?
Who is paying your tuition?
And people are taking an experimental “jab” everyday because they bought into the false trust that’s being sold.
Dumb idea on this guy’s part to go to Iran, but it’s pretty clear that the Princeton Persian Studies department is totally in the pocket of the Mullahs. If anyone is spying here, it’s pretty clear it’s who is ever running that department.
Done got edumacated real good
Some people have to experience progressivism for themselves. Others, not so much.
Evidently he’s not much of historian if he fell for that one
