[Snip]...On Tuesday, November 10, the Minnesota Student Association (MSA) — the undergraduate student government at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (UMN) — rejected a resolution for a moment of recognition on future anniversaries of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks…."I am well aware that 9/11 was a devastating tragedy but I am also fearful for the welfare of our Muslim and Middle Eastern students on campus, of which I identify with."

Full title: U. Minnesota student government rejects annual recognition of 9/11, citing in part "potential perpetuation of Islamophobia"

Another example from our institutions of lower learning.

Converting to Islam will be a requirement before you can pass the term

“Islamophobia” doesn’t exist.

Healthy suspicion does.

And may save your life.

Why would Muslim and Middle Eastern students have anything to fear from commemoration of the 9/11 anniversary? Liberals constantly tell us we aren’t at war with Islam, Islam is a religion of peace and all that. So why would there be any fear?? Muslims were as shocked and dismayed by 9/11 and the Paris attacks and other Muslim terror as all of us, so we are told. So why is this somehow a negative issue for Muslim students????

Our universities are starting to resemble brainwashing camps.

Why wouldn’t his peace loving muslim brothers and fellow students stand with him in recognizing 9/11? Why would they not join us in our day of grief and condemn those who would hurt unarmed civilians and hijack Islam, the religion of peace?

What a wonderful way for people of different cultures to come together in unity, why would those who love peace not take this stance????

Obama White House is behind this

“Our universities are starting to resemble brainwashing camps.”

Our universities are starting to resemble Red Guard training camps.

Fixed

[bgill]

News flash to the little appeasers, those muslims don’t give a flying fig about you.

BTTT

[Jane Austen]

True.

Our universities are starting to resemble brainwashing camps.

Starting? It started in the '60s. In 2000: Educator Bill Lind had it pegged:

On America's college campuses it has diminished freedom of speech, warped curricula, politicized grading and replaced intellectual integrity with vapid sloganeering. In classroom after classroom, professors offer an ideological rant, which students are compelled to regurgitate to get a grade: the vomit returns to the dog. These places--and they are many--are no longer universities, but small, ivy-covered North Koreas.

Universities have been brainwashing camps for over a generation.

While these beheadable millenials are at it, they may as well add that they deny The Holocaust ever happened, too.

[TRAPPER2]

Just more of the same old removing history from history books so it actually didn’t happen?

I believe in treating everyone as I would like to be treated, however some one steps on my toes... I kick back.

These privileged students need to get a taste of real life outside of their so called “Safe Places”, get over themselves and their wet behind the ears childishness and get on with a balanced education then go get a job and work like the rest of the majority of people have to do in order to make it in this old world.

Go get a job! Support yourself! You cannot change the world until you have actually lived in the world! Remember: Mommie and Daddy are not always going to be there to support your liberal as***. Grow Up!

Well, ain't that sweet, muffin.

Then pack your bags and go to the sand box...they'll give you your own quran and goat to hump, and if you're devoted enough, they will probably let you rape five or ten Christian women or children...your choice.

Stupid idiot.

despite numerous interviews of escapees and former prisoners and citizens who were there and witnessed it.

Hey kid, I hope you get to witness just how grateful the towel heads are to you, as the last words you hear are allaku Akbar.
