Useful idiot professors: campus cheerleaders for America’s enemies

The western media wants to portray the Islamist terrorists as legitimate victims who need only a voice, the media’s voice, to explain away their crimes and win widespread western support.

Nevertheless, terrorists who want to kill or enslave us already have a legion of useful idiots professors on our college campuses. Here are some of these contemptible beings speaking about their terrorist heroes.

John Esposito, Georgetown University on convicted terror conspirator Sami Al-Arian ” a proud….. man of conscience with a strong commitment to peace and social justice.”

Natana DeLong-Bas, Boston College “I do not find any evidence that makes me agree that Osama bin Laden was behind the attack on the twin trade towers.”

Ian Lustick, University of Pennsylvania “There is no winning this war, because the war on terror is the enemy.”

Kevin Barrett University of Wisconsin, Madison, “I do know — I don’t believe — I know that 9/11 was an inside job.”

Hamid Dabashi Columbia University “The Iranian human-rights record is atrocious, as is the human-rights record of any country including the U.S.”

Mark LeVine, University of California at Irvine “As far as I can tell, American empire is safe and secure, despite my best efforts to topple it although Musab al-Zarqawi seems to be doing a good job in Iraq.”

Mansour Farhang, Bennington College “If you put a gun to my head and said choose between Ahmadinejad and Bush, I might say, ‘Shoot.’”

Bruce Lawrence Duke University discussing Osama bin Laden, “If you read him in his own words, he sounds like somebody who would be a very high-minded and welcome voice in global politics.”

M. Shahid Alam Northeastern University, “ September 11, 2001, nineteen Arab hijackers too demonstrated their willingness ...

I wish that , for once, some smart person would truly describe what a “College Professor” is. A College Professor is an individual who entered school at age six, and has NEVER left the classroom. Having graduated in his/her mid-twenties they remain on the campus, continuing their course of study until they know all there is to know about a tiny part of their general field. These are people with absolutely NO knowledge or experience of and in the REAL WORLD. They have not the knowledge to run a business, cannot perform the tasks required to grow food, cannot keep an automobile safely running, cannot repair a computer, or perform ANY of the tasks that keep our society operating. On their personal abilities campus building would be limited to three stories because the elevators would not exist. Hunger would abound because they could not feed themselves, let alone a nation. Night would be dark, as the electricity would not flow to lights. Yet these people, overwhelmed by their own “Intellectual Pride” look down upon the very people who’s skill and KNOWLEDGE allow them to live. I speak not, of course, of those instructors who pass on the scientific and engineering skills in the schools where, strangely, the student body doesn’t have the free time to demonstrate, protest and pontificate about the imagined unfairness of life in their spoiled and pampered world. I hold more respect for the man with dirty hands who passes his knowledge of automobile repair or electrical installation to a young apprentice than I do with the “Professor” who spouts politically correct nonsense to the young people who will shortly replace him.

Ian Lustick, University of Pennsylvania “There is no winning this war, because the war on terror is the enemy.”

You know, Ian, I agree with you. Why don't you join me in calling for ObamAdolph's impeachment for waging an illegal war in Afghanistan?

Ian?.....Ian?....
