UC Berkeley Lecturer Hatem Bazian calls for an intifada in the United States:

[Verginius Rufus]

Judging from his rhetoric, he may be calling for Democrats and other leftists of whatever ethnic background to start an intifada, not just Arabs or Muslims.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Hate 'em. What an appropriate name.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Naa, he is a member of a "protected minority" and as such he can do any damned thing he wants with impunity.

[John Lenin]

I would think the Patriot Act allows for this guys arrest, if not, there is something really, really wrong with it.

And among the many Hatem activities in 1995:

Proposed by the Special Committee on Regents' Procedures, the change was suggested after September's board meeting was disrupted three times by student protesters and ultimately closed to the public, regents said yesterday.

During one of the day's speeches, UC Berkeley student Cesar Romero verbally threatened regent Ward Connerly, who initiated the move to eliminate university affirmative action programs.

Connerly commented on the proposal to cut back public comment time yesterday, saying, "It is long overdue."

"We have allowed ourselves to become a human punching bag," Connerly said. "I, as one regent, was among the leaders to say we should open up the meetings." Members of student groups who support affirmative action said yesterday the regents' proposal to limit public comment shows their efforts to pressure the board have been successful. "I think it just shows they are reacting to the political pressure that students have put to the board of regents," said Diversity in Action member Hatem Bazian.

"If it is passed, people will close down California Street as symbolic of California's future and in an attempt to send a clear message of opposition to closing affirmative action," said graduate student Hatem Bazian, coordinator of UC Berkeley's affirmative action coalition.

For Bazian, who has addressed the regents during several past meetings, Wilson's attendance may make the difference for the board, which he feels is split 50-50 on the issue.

"However, any narrow-margin vote is sending a signal that the institution is split on the issue. The only way Wilson can declare a victory is by a solid vote," Bazian said, adding that students will request an injunction from the courts to keep the policies from being implemented if they pass.

Sounds good to me. I've got a dbl Canon® gunsafe full of Class III machinery and a couple of AR®-50 BMGs, just itching for some "reach out and touch me" target practice.

Problem is, the racist and bigoted PC Chief Moose-types will have every LEO running around looking for white, Christian, Conservative males in white pick-up trucks, as he did with the Beltway Shooters right here in my backyard (I'm in Penna, not MD), and the carnage will be horriffic.

If the people of the USA ever turn on these Muslims we wont be able to buy a gallon of gas or get a motel room on I-95 for the raghead bodies lying around. Their best move if they want to fight is to go home and do it, or just shut their stinking mouths and enjoy their lives in a free country.

And another tidbit here: http://archive.dailycal.org/archive/07.18.95/regents.txt

But --Here's "close" to the article I was looking for: Protest Against Regents Planned:

http://archive.dailycal.org/archive/09.14.95/regents.txt

Snips: Student protesters have threatened to disrupt the UC Board of Regents meeting today in San Francisco, the first since the vote to scrap affirmative action in July.

Although there is no time allotted on the agenda for discussing affirmative action, the UC Berkeley student group Diversity in Action (DIA) met last night to discuss plans to break up the meeting during the public comment period this morning.

"We are going to disrupt it, send a clear message that this was unacceptable, and send a clear message that we will disrupt every meeting from now on until they reverse their position," said DIA leader Hatem Bazian.

What will it take you to want to protect our own country from hard core revolutionaries who want to foment war within, so that we can easily be attacked from without?

Every citizen has the RIGHT to protect themselves. All Citizens have the RIGHT to BEAR ARMS to protect their Country. We have the RIGHT to form militias to DEAL with terrorists inside this country. We DO NOT need the permission of the "government" (that WE THE PEOPLE SUPPORT), to bear arms againts our enemies.

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it berklyites!

Has anyone called the university? What is there response?

[Pearls Before Swine]

"Hatem" is his first name, huh? You can't make this stuff up.

A major perversion of the PC culture is that free speech means elevating to positions of respect viewpoints that would have been very incorrect within the context of the previously meanstream views of society. A jerk like Hatem wouldn't have gotten a teaching position, and hardly anyone would have listened to him--he'd have been shouted down and the FBI would have been all over him.

Because of the current PC perversion of free speech, he gets a pass, and even a boost. Because of our lax student visa and immigration policies, he also gets an enthusiastic audience and good reviews from Islamic students. This is a disease we have brought on ourselves; the cure is going to be painful and unpleasant.

[Oorang]

It seems that even back in 1997 Hatem Bazian was saying:

"One of the big debates is: Are we going to Islamicize America, or is America going to Americanize us?"

For another point of view, that's just Berkeley for you. Bernadine Dohr, Mark Rudd, Abbie Hoffman, etc (though not from Berkeley) were UCB idols in the '60s and early '70s.

The ruling spirit is anarchy, and the question is "who's the biggest anarchist group in town this year" because they'll go with them. This does leave Jewish anarchists out rather badly, but maybe it's good for a reality check on who you're friends really are and aren't.

He should be arrested immediately for inciting violence and permanently deported. If that doesn't work, he just may get what he wants but I don't think it will end up the way he thought.

[Wolfhound777]

We seriously need to get these arabs out of our Country while we still can.

I could not agree more. Boris on another thread proposes the following:
Freepers will recall that, immediately post-9/11 I called for several measures that people thought 'draconian'. These included: 1. Withdrawing the visas of all citizens of terror-supporting states. 2. Deporting same. 3. Perform deep background checks on all 'naturalized citizens' from those nations. 4. Cessation of issuance of all visas to citizens of those nations. 5. Utilization of the National Guard and other means to secure the borders. 6. Creation of what I called a 'Super Mossad' to silently and swiftly assassinate terrorists all over the world. 7. Several other bellicose suggestions, including nuclear and psychological measures, meant to rock the Islamists (with whom we are in a state of undeclared war) and give us time to regroup and mobilize.

It's time to cut this guys state funding.

If someone declares war against you and you have good reason to take him seriously, can you kill him?

[Iron Matron]

OF course the troops entering Berkeley would only be after they had declared themselves as being an independent republic

Why is this?

Domestic enemies are domestic enemies right? Domestic enemies are not from another country - dont matter what an enemy declares him/her self to be.
