This will teach those Islamophobes that Islam is a religion of peace: a professor is facing death threats for suggesting otherwise. Nicholas Damask, Ph.D., has taught political science at Scottsdale Community College in Arizona for 24 years. But now he is facing a barrage of threats, and his family, including his 9-year-old grandson and 85-year-old parents, is in hiding, while College officials are demanding that he apologize – all for the crime of speaking the truth about the motivating ideology behind the threat of Islamic jihad worldwide. Damask, who has an MA in International Relations from American University in Washington, D.C., and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Cincinnati, says he is “to my knowledge, the only tenured political science faculty currently teaching in Arizona to write a doctoral dissertation on terrorism.” He has taught Scottsdale Community College’s World Politics for each of the 24 years he has worked at the school. Professor Damask’s troubles began during the current Spring semester, when a student took exception to three quiz questions. The questions were: Who do terrorists strive to emulate? A. Mohammed Where is terrorism encouraged in Islamic doctrine and law? A. The Medina verses [i.e., the portion of the Qur’an traditionally understood as having been revealed later in Muhammad’s prophetic career] Terrorism is _______ in Islam. A. justified within the context of jihad. Damask explained: “All quiz questions on each of my quizzes, including the ones in question here, are carefully sourced to the reading material. On this quiz, questions were sourced to the Qur’an, the hadiths, and the sira (biography) of Mohammed, and other reputable source material.” And indeed, the three questions reflect basic facts that are readily established by reference to Islamic texts and teachings and numerous statements of terrorists themselves.

Actually, I miss the good old terrorist boogey man days, I would trade it in a heartbeat for this COVID-19 scam of the century
They are idiots. Too much inbreeding in that part of the world.
When Fort Apache the Bronx was being filmed on location some Puerto Rican “hactivist” groups took issue, they thought the movie was depicting Hispanics as violent thugs. So they reacted by throwing rocks and bottles at the film crew. Smart, real smart.
Islam is a war plan.
Imho .... too much inbreeding with goats
Just to report further developments, the supervising Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) is investigating the college leadership’s role in this controversy. The professor is not under investigation. Nor is he in danger of losing his job. I hope the college’s leadership is appropriately disciplined. Here’s a link to the article.
Of interest is the divided opinion in the local Muslim community with some supporting the professor and CAIR showing up to cheerlead for the offended students.
I don’t Instagram so I don’t have any information on the current postings and if they reflect these developments in the story.
“You can’t make this stuff up,” as someone once said.
This is why the Babylon Bee has such a tough time.
As a retired Professor, me and that student would have had a short conversation ...one on one.
And this is the exact result leftists (i.e.democrats) want. This is why they import criminal muslims into our country and ‘settle’ them to live right next to you and I.
Leftists know muslims will kill Christians and here is a perfect example.
JoMa
Yup, that’ll show him he’s wrong.
Wait.... what????
There are 68 passages in the Quoran advocating muslims lie, cheat, steal and even kill the infidel. That is being peaceful?
You are right. The Bible isn`t that much better though. Just take a look at Deuteronomy 13:6-10, for example. The difference is that, nowadays at least, far fewer Christians than Muslims take their book literally.
Settled (social) science. In addition to proving the professor’s point these Muslim students are (horrors) anti-science!
When your 1st cousins aren’t off-limits as marriage partners this kind of mental-midgetry reigns supreme.
Please re-read Deut. 13:6
and read Deut. 13:11
<>Today, there is little fear of the consequences of evil.
A day of reckoning is coming.

Immediately looked for the Babylon Bee byline, to no avail...
As an aside, I’ve often wondered why it is forbidden to draw or otherwise create images of Mohammed, but they can name nearly every dopey kid after him.
Thanks for the link, it’s a very good article.
