The claims "The documentary presents footage of intolerance, hatred, militant censorship and use of violence by the Muslim students at the University campus to intimidate and suffocate any free discourse of opposing views." is not supported by the source cited [1].

(outdent) You assume good faith that the editor has watched the entire video and placed it properly. Otherwise, if cited, there is nothing stopping yoy from checking it out yourself. -- Avi 15:59, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Solidarity for Palestinian Human Rights claimed that Netanyahu was guilty of war crimes and therefore should not be allowed a forum to vent his views on a publicly-funded campus. Whether or not you agree with them is besides the point. That is their claim.
Furthermore, several students from all parties were injured in the ruckus from batons and tear gas. Despite claims of protestors being "violent," smashed windows and minor property damage would hardly constitute as violence in the normal sense. All human injuries incurred that day were from police tactics.
The original ad for a protest, which you can still dig up online, called for protesting peacefully and for delivering an "arrest warrant" for his alleged war crimes
As well, Netanyahu had previously been denied the opportunity to speak at other institutions, such as UC Berkeley and Northwestern.
I type as a student of Concordia University and as someone who experienced the aftermath of the riot firsthand, as well as knowing people who attended the protest.

The word 'Polemics' has connotations of criticizing something holy or theological, which unfortunately this documentary does not fall under. I would suggest, if my addition of the word "criticism" does not work well, that "controversy" be used instead.
