Muslim speaker at Virginia Tech: ‘When we say Death to America, we mean a total end to U.S. empire’
Jihad Watch ^ | 4 May, 202 | Robert Spencer

Note also that Abdou calls for Virginia Tech students to “study what our mujahideen did.”

To get an idea of how deep the rot is in American universities, consider the fact that this malignant jihadi is invited to speak at Virginia Tech, but that the same university would never, ever host a foe of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women. Or if it did, that speaker would be vilified for weeks in the campus paper, and menaced during the event, if it took place at all and didn’t get canceled altogether.

“Virginia Tech speaker calls for ‘end of US empire,’ praises Oct 7 in ‘Death to America’ remarks,” by Brittany Miller, Fox News, May 2, 2026:

Video clips posted to X show a former Columbia University professor — who was barred from teaching after expressing support for terror groups — calling for the “destruction” of the United States and urging students to disrupt the American defense industry.

Mohamed Abdou, whose “Death to the Akademy” tour stopped in Blacksburg, Virginia, this week, appears in the clips telling an audience of students that they are part of a “racial religious war” and characterizing the U.S. as a “monster.”…

“When we say Death to America, we mean, and loud and clear, a total end to U.S. empire,” Abdou told the attendees. “The destruction of this crusading settler colony, their entire project.”

Abdou, who was barred from teaching at Columbia last year after expressing support for Hamas, Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad, also refers to the Oct. 7 attacks as the “blessed day of Al-Aqsa Flood.” He describes student activists in the room as a “branch of the resistance” and a “branch of the mujahideen.”

The speech criticizes the “weapons industry,” with Abdou appearing to urge students to disrupt “every single choke point” and “supply chain bottleneck.”

“Study what our mujahideen did,” Abdou tells students, adding that they should “start soon.”…

All speakers on campus must be approved by Virginia Tech. It’s called the “street preacher” rule. If they are not physically present, it is allowed.

The real question is “Who reserved this room?”.

Not the first religion to have one of its adherents say that.

My Alma Mater is dead to me. What a descent into hell this university has gone through since I left in ‘82.

That animal should be required to empirically (a) define “empire” and (b) factually demonstrate, beyond refute, that the U.S. is an empire, or lose his ability to be a guest speaker except when appears at events - events not organized by and for him, where solid opposition to his views are also presented.

Good example of muslims note assimilating. They hate the
USA for the freedoms the Constitution affords the people. They should not be allowed into the USA.

Islam has in effect been in a state of total war against the United States since before there was a United States.

The only way to be at peace with Muslims is to be one. And not always even then.
