Muslim Professor at CA University: ‘Genocide’ of White Racists ‘Morally Required’
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Mohammed Abed, a California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA) tenure-track professor of ethics, social & political philosophy, and classical Islamic philosophy believes that genocide of white racists is “morally required”.

Mohammed Abed claims that sometimes you just have to commit genocide to save the world from the evil people…like white racists.

One can certainly concoct a hypothetical scenario in which the deliberate annihilation of a group’s way of life is a “moral and political imperative.” And there may be a case for classifying as genocide campaigns of social destruction that are widely considered to be not only excusable but morally required. The institution of slavery in the American South was, arguably, a comprehensive way of life and worldview to which many whites were profoundly attached. It would not be wildly implausible to say that their investment in the culture and norms of the slave-owning community rivaled in its social meaning and significance an individual’s affiliation with a national or religious group. But because the kidnapping, enslavement, and lifelong exploitation of innocent human beings was a constitutive and thus ineliminable feature of the life led by many Southern whites, annihilating their way of life was a moral imperative. The right course of action was to strip them of an identity that gave meaning to their lives.
Ya know... in the Muslim world the institution of slavery is also, arguably, a worldview to which many Muslims are attached, despite startlingly recent laws forbidding it. By this argument the genocide of Muslims in those countries/regions where slavery is demonstrably practiced by those in a position to do so is morally required. Professor Abed describes himself as a Palestinian exile from the city of Jaffa, which suggests the possibility that he or his parents at some point lived among slaveowners.

#1 Dr. Abed's career at the U of Wisc included a defense of suicide bombing.

Ironically with respect to his argument, 'abed' in arabic means 'slave'

Now, that's funny.

Actually, it works very well for them. I remember a scientific article from the seventies which examined distribution of blood groups among Arab Egyptians relative to Copts on one side and Saudis on the other. Now guess to which group Arab Egyptians were closer?

#6 A tenure-track professor at CSULA? Does that mean he doesn't have tenure yet? Hope so. But then California state universities also have Deans of Diversity. No joke. Your tax dollars at work.

It works on a relatively-successful way...

Just the place they colonise turns into the shithole they left because it was a shithole. They'll need to find someone else to build civilisation and parasite upon it.

Sounds like Oregon, Colorado & Vermont after the migration of the Proggies from California and Mass.

#9 Seems the left throws around the word genocide pretty easily these days. We've come a long way from "Never Again" haven't we. Then again the left was probably crossing their fingers and making mental kill lists when they said "Never Again" in the aftermath of World War 2.

#10 Professor, communism, socialism, and national socialism are on the left side of the spectrum, not the right. It is from this side of the spectrum that most genocide has arisen. It seems, that more often than not, it is a product of statism where the state has too much centralized control.
