More about the Fund Haman, Hang Esther conference. Hat tip LGF. On November 7-9, Ohio State University is planning to host the Third National Conference On Palestine Solidarity.
In the clink? Good. Fadi Kiblawi, head of Students Allied for Freedom and Equality (SAFE), the sponsor of the Michigan Conference declared in a Michigan student publication his desire âto strap a bomb to oneâs chest and kill . . . . The enemy is not just overseas, the enemy is also amongst us.â "Heil!" The organizer of this yearâs Ohio State event is the Palestine Solidarity Movement, which is a shadowy organization allied with the International Solidarity Movement, an active collaborator with terrorists in the Middle East (an Islamic jihad terrorist militant was even arrested hiding in ISM offices in Jenin). The ISM supports the terroristsâ political agendas, including their opposition to the peace process and their call for the destruction of the state of Israel. One of the three founders of ISM is Ghassan Andoni, whose tour company made the travel arrangements for two London-based Islamic suicide bombers who killed three innocent civilians at a music bar in Tel Aviv on April 30, 2003. The conference is scheduled to open with a panel called âTowards A Global Intifada,â in other words a global terrorist war.
Of course, that would kind of show the students the truth about the WoT and the way the world works, so intellectuals need not appear. The Third National Conference On Palestine Solidarity does not meet these criteria. It is not an academic conference. The charade in which the university participates by hosting the event is destructive to the academic atmosphere at Ohio State and a disservice to its student community. Not to mention pro-Holocaust. A university is not a political party, and an education should not be an indoctrination. A university should be a place for examining ideas not hectoring students into submitting to them. Universities like Ohio State need to defend the integrity of their educational mission by drawing a sharp distinction between the university as a place of questioning dialogue, and the political arena with its sound-bite mentality, vitriolic address and (as in the present case) often violent agendas. | ||

#5 typical clueless university lots of mommies and daddies and alumni are contributing to. Maybe they can string up babies instead of pinatas and let the brave young palestinians whack them with bats. or maybe they can celebrate solidarity by throwing dynamite into a synagogue, or hijack a city bus and blow it up. the palestinian students ought to feel right at home. |

#3 This should be a great opportunity for the Feds to do some casual observation. See who is organizing, what they are saying (Kill dem Jooooos...and, oh yeah, respect us and give us money) and then following them back to their rat holes. THen, assuming that they are aiding or abetting Hams, IJ, etc. round 'em up and send them off to Gitmo. I'd like to think that some right-thinking midwestern lads might also want to knock some heads. Asshats. |
