College Libs: Remembering 9/11 Promotes Islamophobia
Patriot News Daily ^ | 11/13/2015

Posted on 11/16/2015 7:05:22 AM PST by HomerBohn

Is there a major university in this country that has not been crippled by anti-American, anti-conservative, anti-common-sense philosophy? What we're seeing on these campuses is worse than your everyday, garden-variety liberalism. We're seeing a new radical movement that echoes the Vietnam protest era.

Except there isn't any war.

And there isn't any rational cause.

Be that as it may, these kids are thirsty for drama. At the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, the student government voted down a proposal to commemorate the anniversary of 9/11 because opponents believe it will engender Islamophobia.

If only the dangers of engendering Islamophobia had been chief in the minds of the 19 hijackers, there might not be so much of it these days.

"The passing of this resolution might make a space that is unsafe for students on campus even more unsafe," said student government representative David Algadi. "Islamophobia and racism fueled through that are alive and well."

How can you even talk about "safe spaces" in the same breath as you're discussing 9/11? Algadi is talking about whether or not Muslims feel comfy on the University of Minnesota campus. Whether they feel respected. Whether they will fit in perfectly with their peers. And meanwhile, we're talking about a mass murder that stole the lives of 3,000 people. This kid doesn't know the first thing about safety.

Further demonstrating his ignorance, he asked the student newspaper, "When will we start having moments of silence for all of the times white folks have done something terrible?"

Well, you have to shut up in order to have a moment of silence, and that's something you and your liberal kind seem unable to do.

If Muslims on campus could take the temperature of things, they would see a resolution like this for the opportunity that it is. An opportunity to come and speak out against the evils of radical Islam. American Muslims and moderate Muslims worldwide have been woefully silent in the years since 9/11. Why is that? Why aren't they among the most vicious and relentless critics of ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the rest of these evil organizations?

To say it's because they secretly support them would probably be going a step too far, but it is certain that they do not see them as you or I see them. They may not approve of what happened on September 11, but do they approve of Palestinians knifing Jews in Jerusalem? They may not approve of what just happened in Paris, but is there any part - any part - of them that says, "Well, that's why the West should get their military off holy ground"?

But this is largely beside the point, because this isn't even about Muslims versus everyone else. This is about liberal kids who haven't had a day of struggle in their entire lives looking desperately for something that will make them feel like they are part of a cause.

Funny thing is, that's exactly the kind of people ISIS attracts.

The Quran causes Islamophobia all by itself. The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter

These idiots don’t worry me so much as the people pulling their strings. The idiots are too stupid to come up with these ideas by themselves. They are being used as tools by other, smarter people who have an agenda harmful to America and Americans.

A phobia in an unreasonable or unfounded fear. Fearing something that insists that if you don’t convert or submit (pay the Jizya, Infidel tax and acknowledge Islam’s superiority with willing submission) it is their duty to kill you is neither unfounded nor unreasonable.

Time to turn their own tactics against them and initiate a massive false flag/deception operation. Identify a few of these idiots and begin with the headline, “College Professors Smear the Name of the Prophet (Peace be unto Him).” Then we’ll see how many of them are concerned about “Islamophobia”.

To say it's because they secretly support them would probably be going a step too far...

But to say they share the same goals is perfectly accurate. They may claim not to support the methods... but they agree with the goals.

The average American is being squeezed, with the upper jaw of the vise being big money One Worlders funding the lower jaw of the vise, the street, campus, and racist radicals. Pressure from above and pressure from below.

They’re purging our nation of Civil War history, so this is no surprise.

America has been a historical anomaly. For most of civilized human history, there has been the hereditary elite ruling class, probably less than 1% of the population. Beneath them were the 10% who were educated and ran the higher affairs of state for the elite ruling class. They were the merchants who ran the commerce and the “scribes” or bureaucrats who ran the affairs of state. Beneath them were the ignorant peasantry; tiller of soil and cannon fodder for armies.

America was the anomaly because while we had our 1% ruling class, it was not exclusively hereditary, and the 10$ was really about 80%.

The anomaly is ending. The middle class is being squeezed out of existence, and in a generation it will be gone. The current millenials don’t realize it, but they are in a competition to see who makes it into the 10%. Well, given the complexity of modern society, it will probably be around 20%. But if you don’t make it into the 20%, you will fall into the pit of being a peasant, from which there will be no escape.

By the way, the 20% will be totally beholden and subservient to the elite rulers to maintain their position of relative comfort.
