NEW YORK (AP) -- A Columbia University professor told an anti-war gathering that he would like to see "a million Mogadishus" -- referring to the 1993 ambush in Somalia that killed 18 American servicemen.

At Wednesday night's "teach-in" on the Columbia campus, Nicholas De Genova also called for the defeat of U.S. forces in Iraq and said, "The only true heroes are those who find ways that help defeat the U.S. military." And he asserted that Americans who call themselves "patriots" are white supremacists.

Deport this vermin.

Columbia spokesman Joe Kennedy said the university was preparing a statement about the event.

Yea the will probably give him a raise!

[templar]

If I had known what he was going to say I would have been reluctant to have him speak."

That statement would more convincing if he has said refused instead of reluctant.

[CONSERVE]

Better yet let me go mogadishu on him.

[sheik yerbouty]

I would prefer he be publicly defenestrated, so as to be instructive.

[Zavien Doombringer]

hmmm, a million mogadishus? 18 american lives = 1 Mogadishu
1 million mogadishu = 18 million american lives...

1 angry american vet - 1 columbia professor = Happy America

"Columbia teacher calls for `a million Mogadishu"

I wish the mother of all plagues on his testicles.

I hope Hannity and O'Reilly get wind of this and tell the whole country about Columbia U. I desperately want to see those bastards try to defend those comments as American troops are dying.

Contrast this scumbag with those two special forces heroes who roped down to certain death to try and save that downed chopper pilot. How can a nation produce such disparate citizens?

Would love to see some of those Rangers and D-boys who made it out get their hands on this guy in some alley and make it look like a random crime.

[Revolting cat!]

Here's your clown:

Here's the other thread.

[anniegetyourgun]

Wishing violent death on our soldiers? So much for the non-violent peaceniks, eh?

[DoctorMichael]

..........and people pay good money to put their children's minds in this pit of self-loathing and poison.

[Nachum]

An assistant professor is someone who desires tenure. Perhaps we might let the University know what we think of his prospects...

I hate America. I hate the military except the two guys in uniform in the village people who I would like to blow.
