I wonder if jihad attacks have now officially taken a new form. Rather than blowing up buildings or crashing planes, they are now targeting specific people.

Odd situation. From what I’m reading on the professor he was not anti-Islamic or Middle East. I wonder what the reason for killing him was?

On one web site, the professor was described as a peace activist...

Another said “His scholarly interests center on comparative religion and symbolic systems, the social organization of tradition in Islamic law and ethics, the sociology of dispute with respect to tribal law in the Middle East, local-level politics, and the impact of transnational migration on education, work, and cultural change.”

Hmmm.

“Abdulsalam” means, I’m pretty sure, “Servant of peace.”

Oy! The Irony!

The professor may well have been a peace activist and not anti-Islam in the least. However, he was a professor and as such most likely did mention certain aspects of the Islamic faith or Muhammad that are difficult for Islam followers to hear.

Sounds like he wasn’t ‘muslim enough’.

For example, Mohammad had sex with a 9 year old girl. That is a basic tenant of Islamic history and is in the Hadith. If that was mentioned in passing in a class, even though it was true, it may have triggered some anger. They don't like non muslims discussing sensitive issues about their prophet. Being a liberal provides no protection from Islamic rage.

Purported to be the killer, in his own words, from Binghamton Press & Sunn-Bulletin article’s comments:

Even the hummus you (Jews) have stolen!

Abdulsalam Alzahrani:

No failure equals the Israeli…your were f… up under a tolitarian rule in europe and the rule failed and you want to replicate it!!! how stupid is this? what failure is this?

Wow! No neurotic projection there, no sir-ee.

What Arab Civilization?

Arabs/Muslims are engaged in an explicit campaign of destruction and expropriation of cultures and communities, identities and ideas. Wherever Arab/Muslim civilization encounters a non-Arab/Muslim one, it attempts to destroy it (as the Buddhist statues in Afghanistan were destroyed, as Persepolis was destroyed by the Ayotollah Khomeini). This is a pattern that has been recurring since the advent of Islam, 1400 years ago, and is amply substantiated by the historical record. If the "foreign" culture cannot be destroyed, then it is expropriated, and revisionist historians claim that it is and was Arab, as is the case of most of the Arab "accomplishments" you cited in your speech [Carly Fiorina, in a speech given by her on September 26, 2001]. For example, Arab history texts in the Middle East teach that Assyrians were Arabs, a fact that no reputable scholar would assert, and that no living Assyrian would accept. Assyrians first settled Nineveh, one of the major Assyrian cities, in 5000 B.C., which is 5630 years before Arabs came into that area. Even the word 'Arab' is an Assyrian word, meaning "Westerner" (the first written reference to Arabs was by the Assyrian King Sennacherib, 800 B.C., in which he tells of conquering the "ma'rabayeh" -- Westerners.

Wow—it only took two days for the press to reveal his name.

Islamoscum!

Hope Prof. Antoun is recovering well from this senseless attack.

My Arabic is quite rusty, but I believe that the killer’s first name means literally “Servant of Peace.”
