I wrote a letter to the editor about this...hopefully it gets published. The CRs (College Republicans) backed down and changed the name to Terrorism Awareness Week because of pressure from the Muslim Students Association, whose Islam Awareness Week is this week as well.

The CR's have planned some interesting events, including speeches by Daniel Pipes, Stephen Gale, Ian Lustick, and fmr. Sen. Rick Santorum.h

[wastedyears]

Yes, it was neccesary to change the name 31%

No, it was not necessary to change the name 63%

It was necessary, but perhaps another name 2%

I don’t know 5%

[rawcatslyentist]

Why didn’t the slimes have to change their name to Women who are beaten while wearing sacks empowerment week?

[3AngelaD]

Right now, 65 percent say not it was not necessary.

[Sgt_Schultze]

So, it was the idea of the Muslim Student Association to encourage the name change from Islamo-Fascist Awareness to Terrorist Awareness? That is a remarkable and welcome admission that Islamo-fascism is the equivalent of terrorism.

What a welcome development.

Veni, Vedi, Freepi

I came, I saw, I freeped. Something like that.

[Bringbackthedraft]

It was necessary, but perhaps another name. ............. “Mad Mullahs Insanity” works for me.

[trisham]

Yes, it was neccesary to change the name 19%
No, it was not necessary to change the name 77%
It was necessary, but perhaps another name 1%
I don’t know 3%

I guess the college Republicans were afraid of being beheaded. A legit fear, IMHO.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

The left is uneasy now that we are calling attention to the presence of millions of members of the cult of death, sometimes erroneously called the “religion of peace”.

[Bahbah]

Done.

[SampleMan]

I recommend:

Terrorism, Which Is Based On Islam 98% of the Time, Awareness Week.

[metmom]

Probably necessary to prevent the muzzies from going on the rampage and burning and beheading people.

[metmom]

But it shouldn’t have been done.

[BJClinton]

Was it necessary for Penn College Republicans to change the name of Islamo-Facism Awarness Week to Terrorism Awareness week upon the insistance of the Muslim Student Association?

This The Daily Pennsylvanian poll is not scientific and reflects the opinions of only those Internet users who have chosen to participate. The results cannot be assumed to represent the opinions of Internet users in general, nor the public as a whole.

[ZULU]

Yeah.

They should replace Islam-Fascism with just plain ISLAM.

The other phrase is a rhetorical tautology.

[the gillman@blacklagoon.com]

Imagine FDR, during WWII, trying to rally the US to fight “some guys from other countries that aren’t that nice, really.”

That wouldda worked.

If you don’t clearly and plainly name your enemy, you are going to lose.

This “War on Terror” crap is self defeating.
We are at war with Islam, Islam, Islam. There is no radical Islam, no hijacked religon of peace, no extremists, there is only Islam.

Let me get this straight:

A bunch of fascists were upset at being called “fascist” and demanded a group change the name?

Didn’t they actually prove the CRs point that the first name was correct?

[steve-b]

The proper name is “Islamic Fundamentalism” — it’s a natural outgrowth of fanatical adherence to Islam, not an imported philosophical aberration from Europe.
