About a month ago, somebody on this board sent me a link to THIS article, which I found disturbing enough to FWD to the Governor with a recommendation that it be sent to the Florida Dept of Law Enforcement. (FDLE) Here is the e-mail:

To: Jeb Bush
Subject: Enemies on College Campus?
Sir, are you aware of this? This comes from an article and needs verification. But I'd say it's worthy of checking out, wouldn't you agree?
The Enemy Thrives at FAU

In recent times, a fairly large list of Islamist radicals and/or those that sympathize with the Islamist cause have passed through the university.

This list includes professors that the university had itself hired to teach its students (two of which still teach there).

Professors such as:

Mustafa Abu Sway, who was discovered to have had numerous ties to the terrorist organization HAMAS Khalid Hamza, who had used a Texas A & M internet forum to defend Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Sami Al-Arian Bassem Alhalabi, who was found guilty of exporting a $13,000 thermal imaging device to Syria Imadeldin “Imad” Mahgoub, who was featured on a panel discussion with HAMAS fundraiser Raed Awad At least one FAU student, Syed Khawer Ahmad, was found to have played a role in the world of radical Islam. While Ahmad was attending classes at FAU, he was the webmaster of the homepage for the Islamic Society, the Palestinian group that spawned HAMAS. The final bunch are those that were invited by the FAU Muslim Student Organization (MSO) to speak on campus. This is the same MSO that created two Islamic centers in Boca Raton, one of which houses two “religious leaders” that have been accused of having direct ties to terrorist organizations.

The guest lecturers included:

Rafil Dhafir, the past Vice Chairman of the Islamic Assembly of North America (IANA), who was convicted of raising money for terrorist organizations through an Iraqi children’s charity called Help the Needy Al-Haaj Ghazi Khankan, the Executive Director of the New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), who is quoted as having pledged his support for the HAMAS and Hezbollah terrorist groups Kathy Kelly, the co-founder of Voices in the Wilderness, who served time in a federal prison for trespassing onto the Ft. Benning military base in Georgia

Sir, You KNOW I'm all for academic freedom, but don't you think a little visit to FAU by FDLE might be in order?
Best Always,

The Governor responded with:

I will pass on to the FDLE. Jeb Bush

Then I got THIS in my e-mail yesterday from a senior agent at FDLE whom I will not name.

Okay, folks I think we just had a measurable impact on the WOT. Job well done to everybody. And don't think it got done just 'cause I've got a contact! ANYBODY in ANY STATE can send this stuff to the state level LEO's and get similar results! Like the commercial says: Just do it.
