Good...public opinion and pressure from within CAN make a difference. Even at Yale.

I never understood the big deal. He wasn't using US tax money. If the guy does convert to our ways of thinking, he becomes a powerful weapon against the Islamist nuts.

During the Cold War, many of the most effective anticommunists were disillusioned ex-reds. Think Whittaker Chambers, or Morris Childs.

They argued that he would benefit from a Yale education and from the culture of tolerance and open inquiry that prevails at a university in the West

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

The left is more tolerant to the Taliban and al Qaeda than they are to conservatives.

Can you imagine the uproar if he wanted to join ROTC?

One would think the Left would celebrate this as a victory for liberal values. They won’t.

Everyone hates the woman-beating, finger-chopping, head-hacking, gay-smashing, terrorist-abetting Taliban, right?

Apparently, not as much as they hate Fox News and John Fund.
