Behind Al-Arian's facade (founded the World and Islam Studies Enterprise at USF a decade ago)--
The facade should have been stripped away years ago. Al-Arian founded the World and Islam Studies Enterprise at USF a decade ago. WISE sponsored events at USF and at other sites around the country, some of which featured radical Islamic speakers such as Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman, later convicted in connection with the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. WISE was shut down in 1995 after one of Al-Arian's WISE associates, Ramadan Shallah, left USF and popped up in Syria as the new leader of Palestinian Islamic Jihad -- the same terrorist organization for which Al-Arian was soliciting funds that year. Al-Arian claimed at the time to be shocked to learn of Shallah's association with PIJ.

The politicians and the State Department jokers keep thinking that Islam is a respected religeon of peace? Here we have a college professor, and an Egyptian doctor, and billionair,..All are worthless hate-filled terrorists. From the begger on the street to the rich intellectuals, they are ALL hate-filled terrorists. For the love of God, why are we allowing them to come to this country. Legal or illegal, we don't need more built-in enemies, we have enough liberals, and their elks to deal with!!!
