The Washington Times reported:
Last week's Knaves were the seven GW students who posted satirical anti-Muslim posters around campus, which were wrongly atttributed to the conservative Young America's Foundation. This week, Mr. Knapp takes dubious honors for vowing consequences but giving the kid-gloves treatment once it emerged that the offending students were not young conservatives, but a bunch of left-wingers seeking to portray the foundation as a nest of bigots.This is cross-posted at Incorrect University website.
When the posters were first discovered, Mr. Knapp, unable to recognize them for what they were, called them "reprehensible" and said: "There is no place for expressions of hatred on our campus." That clearly doesn't apply when "expressions of hatred" are meant to smear a conservative group. Late last week, after the perpetrators came forward, the university announced that all disciplinary issues would be handled by the Student Judicial Services, and not the administration. University police have closed their investigation. In fact, the students may escape punishment altogether because GW's "hate speech" provisions do not extend to political affiliation.
Young America's Foundation remains the school's target. School administrators demanded something like a loyalty oath, in which the foundation promised "that you will not allow hate speech to be a part of any [group] events, literature, written or verbal communication planned for Islamofacism Week." When you're afraid of the guilty at GW, you punish the innocent.
Was this outcome ever in doubt?
ReplyDeleteIf the demoncrats take the White House next fall, watch for the same kind of things to begin happening nation-wide. What is currently happening on the campuses is just a small taste of the future of the US- while it still exists as the US.
It's disgusting to see grown adults in important university posts turn into dancing bears when a protected left-wing minority snaps its fingers. But, kiddies, that's part of your education too.

ReplyDeleteSeven GW students admit to hanging controversial posters
A group of seven GW students sent an e-mail to The Hatchet late Tuesday night admitting to hanging hundreds of controversial posters around campus early Monday morning.
The students - Adam Kokesh, freshman Yong Kwon, senior Brian Tierney, freshman Ned Goodwin, Maxine Nwigwe, Lara Masri and Amal Rammah - said their motives were misinterpreted. Students for Conservativo-Facism Awareness hung the posters in opposition to Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, an event being held beginning Oct. 22.
Kokesh, a graduate student and Iraq War veteran, gained celebrity over the past year because of his vocal opposition to the war. Nwigwe and Rammah are also graduate students.
"It is to our great dismay that the student body and the media missed the clear, if subtle, message of our flier: the hyperbolic nature of the flier was aimed at exposing Islamophobic racism," the e-mail said.
Posters hung around campus read, "Hate Muslims? So do we!!!"
Tracy Schario, a University spokesperson, said that the University Police Department is still investigating the incident.
"At a minimum, these flyers violated the posting policy and did not properly use the University logo and they posted flyers without permission," Schario said. "That's, at a minimum, the offense."

ReplyDeleteI do too, juandos. One would think that there are enough libtard lawyers at GWU to know that and to tell the administration that.
I also think it is about time to start defunding these universities. Why should my tax dollars go to fund these fools? Let them go out and get a real job.

ReplyDeleteExactly Nahanni!
I wonder how many federal dollars went into this asinine chicken little propaganda nonsense?

[What is currently happening on the campuses is just a small taste of the future of the US- while it still exists as the US.]
excerpts:
[The Muslim Brotherhood in the United States
The MB planted its roots in the United States with its 1963 establishment of the Muslim Student Association (MSA). Since then, it has used political developments, especially in the Middle East, to advance its strategic agenda and recruit more like-minded people to the cause of Islamizing the U.S., which, being non-Muslim, constitutes a part of the Dar al Harb - the "Land of Warfare." In other words, it "is a country belonging to infidels which has not been subdued by Islam."]
[MB Network's "Flexibility" in the U.S.
On its own website, the MB states its goals under the heading "Establishing the Islamic government." The MB notes that: "Preparing the society is achieved through plans for: spreading the Islamic culture, the possible media means, mosques, and Da'awa [inviting others to Islam, an obligatory duty for Muslims], work in public organizations such as syndicates, parliaments, student unions." In stands to reason that the Brotherhood secretly cultivates new members at the mosques, madrassas and Islamic "Cultural Centers" it has helped to create, providing these recruits with moral and financial support.]

ReplyDeleteps: Religion monitor: Shut Saudi school
excerpts:
[An independent government agency that monitors worldwide religious freedom will suggest today that the State Department shut down the 23-year-old Islamic Saudi Academy in Northern Virginia on the grounds it is fomenting hate and religious extremism.]
[At issue are textbooks the USCIRF says contain "highly intolerant and discriminatory language, particularly against Jews, Christians and Shi'a Muslims." Its findings are based on a three-year study of Arabic-language textbooks, some of them from the Saudi Academy, by the Center for Religious Freedom in the District.
The textbooks instructed students to "hate" Jews, Christians, "polytheists" and other "unbelievers," praised violent jihad as a "religious duty" and to believe as fact the anti-Semitic forgeries known as "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion."]
but will they?? uhg!!
like i've been saying for several years now.. albeit a major part of their strategy, their WAR OF TERROR is a distraction from the real groundwork going on behind the scenes.. we are NOT DEALING WITH (_o_) POLITICIANS here, we are dealing with a well planned, organized & constructed means of establishing a GLOBAL SHARIA CALIPHATE ON EARTH.. now where (& how many times) have you heard that before??
btw, their "time limit" is "as long as it takes".. heck, they've been stealthily working on "The Project" for at least 2 to 3 decades now, gah!!

Re: Religion monitor: Shut Saudi school...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link bg...
It got me interested about the Islamic Saudi Academy of Alexandria, Va...
That school has a bit of history as I found out at the Jihad Watch site: Valedictorian Accused in Assassination Plot Graduated from Islamic Saudi Academy
The New York Sun on Oct. 5 posted the following: Senate Will Probe Saudi Distribution Of Hate Materials which dovetails with your Washington Times link...
BTW there is a blog site you all might find interesting: Northern Virginiastan
Monitoring how Islam is subverting public institutions in Northern Virginia and the greater DC Metro Area
"Senate Will Probe Saudi Distribution Of Hate Materials"
ReplyDeleteBack in the 70's and 80's, Saudi embassys were openly distributing free copies of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion--as well as other examples of Islamic tolerance and peacefulness. Some things never change, because some ideologies are unreformable.
