Not to change the subject too much I was checking some graduate programs in chemical and nuclear engineering around the country and noticed quite a few Arab surnames on their student rosters. Something maybe we should be concerned about?

> An MIT policeman was murdered by an Islamic terrorist

They are dedicating the Sean Collier memorial next week. It’s going to be a big event on campus.

Exactly. Just throw the absurdity back in their faces.

“Your claims of feeling unsafe make me feel unsafe because I an now being accosted for celebrating my own diverse culture. As the UA represents all students it cannot marginalize my culture.”

Keep it up for a few paragraphs and just keep adding PC buzzwords like justice, and micro-aggression, and then don’t forget to say culture a few more times.

“The Israeli Independence Day raises politically sensitive questions given that it just so happens to represent the 1948 Palestinian Exodus, also known as the “Nakba”. This is a day of extreme tragedy and traumatic loss for millions of people, including many students here at MIT. As Palestinians and supporters of Palestine in the MIT community, we are alarmed by the fact that the UA are endorsing this event, given that the UA represents us as well. We feel unsafe in an environment that celebrates a catastrophic day for one nation at an official school-wide capacity by a body that represents all students equally, with no regards or sympathy towards our tragedy.”

It was the day the entire Arab world declared war on the new Jewish state and got their collective butts handed to them. I’d be embarrassed too.

It’s a whole lot cheaper to just kill’em.

This is hilarious. Palestinians feeling “unsafe”, but the only *possible* reason they could feel unsafe is from fear that other Muslims would attack the Jews, and harm them, the Paleos, as collateral damage.

Send the Palestinians@MIT back to Hamas territory. I’m sure they will know what it really feels like to feel uncomfortable.

A bunch of Fatah/Hamas buttboys.

Tell the pukestinians to go hump a camel. Islam must be destroyed. With the other islamic bomber pig in custody, possibly awaiting its death, many of us with loved ones in the area rightfully ask whether WE are safe in the presence of moslem murderers. Bomb any 8 year-olds this week?

They are unsafe - hating Jews thus inviting God’s wrath is quite a dangerous thing to do.

Hope you are right. It is beyond stupid.

In my day, feeling unsafe meant you might be assaulted. Now it means you may hear something with your delicate ears that you don't like.

How far we have fallen.

Palestine is not nor has it ever been a “nation”. Amazing historical revision is one bad habit of these folks.

There is no so-called “palestine”, but for the Roman appellation. Nor are there any so-called “palestinians” but for various conglomerations of predominantly islamist arabs which Israel, for whatever God-forsaken reason, has decided it must put-up with.

I’m an MIT grad. We’ve always had our share of idiots, generally outside of the engineering dept.

Plus Harvard is too close. It stinks up the campus.

“July 4, is not a great day in British history does it bother them too ? (probably yes.)”

My son has lived in the London area of England,for 30 years. When son was here not long after living in London, he bought a stainless steel Weber charcoal closed top smoker here and the company shipped it to England for him. No Texan can live without a barbecue setup and being stainless steel, it will last a very long time.

Every July 4, he invites other American friends of his living there, to come to his house and has a barbecue in his backyard to celebrate US independence from England.

One place where he lived, on his 4th of July celebration barbecue, the English neighbors on one side, complained about the smell of meat barbecuing. In this country, neighbors would like the perfume of barbecuing meat, but not the dull English.

Meat butchers there don't cut beef in a way for barbecuing. Son went to a butcher and explained how he wanted a piece of beef cut. The butcher did it but was confused why anyone would want beef cut that way. After son barbecued that beef, he took some to the butcher and the butcher was amazed at the taste and tenderness of the meat.

The English have a lot to learn.

They ARE unsafe. They should be thankful that someone is willing to wake them up to how unsafe they are, so that they can feel reality beneath their feet and do something about it, other than throw their neighbors to the crocodile who is making them be unsafe. If that’s what Israeli Independence Day does, then all power to it.
