If there had been some explosives in the car, the authorities would have had no problem deeming it a terrorist act. I guess this guy was just acting out a little agression against the West,,,ho-hum.

Give me a break!

"The university is very pro-Islamic, and it's been that way the whole time I've been here," Wampler said in a phone interview.

UNC at Chapel Hill has long been a bastion of liberalism and I am confident that the classroom and campus discussions are somehow blaming Bush for this incident and excusing Taheri-azar saying that "Bush made him do it."

i doubt that anyone could justify idiocy like this. Even the most liberal mind isnt addled enough to make this guy sound like a victim of any sort.

Well, a victim of too much pot, maybe.

From Lexico Publishing, Dictionary.com:

"Terrorism: The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons."

Terrorist Incident, UNC-CH: The unlawful use of violent force by Mohammed against unarmed civilians with the intention of intimidating or coercing the American people and US government, and all in order to "spread the will of Allah."

What precisely do the morons at UNC-CH not understand about this incident? This was terrorism pure and simple. Intentional use of violent force on an unarmed group of civilians in the name of the political ideology that is Islam.

It is an extreme case of injustice to the victims and their families to downplay this terrorist act.

It is terrorism.

Start profiling Muslims - either they take an oath to the US or deport them - enough is enough.

You'd be surprised at the number of 'intellectuals' at the Chapel Hill campus that would probably do just that.

I went to NC State in Raleigh, NC back in the 70's and we would occasionally make the short trip to Chapel Hill. The place was full of hippies that were about as anti-American as the USSR was at that time. Those were the sorts that flew the North Vietnamese flag and idolized Ho Chi Min.

I can't imagine that it's changed all that much.

(BTW, when I was applying for schools, UNC at Chapel Hill was one of the ones that my pop wouldn't even let me consider.)

I clearly understand the reason your father wanted you to refrain from applying there.

Given the faculty's outright refusal to call this a terrorist act, one can only imagine what classifies as "intellectual" in that ridiculous school.

I'd be more than happy to help them on their way to see satanallah for eternity! They want to blow up, we want to blow them up, what's the hold up??


Sura 9:5 of satans “Koranus,”

“Slay the idolaters muslimes wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush.”

Kohn notes the attack, "really surprised and shocked the campus," but says it's too early to call it terrorism. "It's too early to make that judgment. We need to know what his links were, if any, to groups. We need to know his background, any statements he made. Until that time, we should not rush to judgment. It would be premature to do so."

Meanwhile, police are investigating whether the AFLCA "duck" is really a duck by investigating ties to any known flocks. The so-called "duck" had no ID nor any membership cards found after a seach of his nest indicating membership to any known flocks.

Of course it's Bush's fault. If it wasn't for US government policies around the world, L'il Osama never would have turned his car into a missile.

To avenge the deaths of muslims all over the world, he should have run over a bunch of muslims, since muslims are responsible for the death of over 4mln other muslims over recent 20 years. Saddam alone can take credit for the death of about two mln muslims.
