Yet universities routinely honor those who mock and insult Christianity. Sadly the United States has entered a neo pagan ,post Christian era of decadence and decline.
Good little Dhimmis.
Damn cowards.
This is really disgusting, a prime example of the
tyranny of the minority.
I suppose they would have barred Churchill as being
a naziphobe too.
A sad example of what PC and diversity have done
to the educational system in this country, a country
that used to pride itself as being free and supporting
freedom for all.
Bigots.
Indeed she has. So why is Brandeis University withdrawing the honor?
Cowards everywhere! Absolutely pathetic.
Hopefully this is not the final decision, the money will not increase. http://giving.brandeis.edu/giving-opportunities/index.html
Isn’t Brandeis a Jewish university?
"But it's not just the Muslim community that is upset but students and faculty of all religious beliefs," she said. "A university that prides itself on social justice and equality should not hold up someone who is an outright Islamophobic."
First, Sarah Fahmy, go away! Go live in an islamic country. While you are there, have a muslim mutilate your sexual organs. Then, allow muslims to arrange an abusive marriage for you.
Be sure to stay there, keeping your mouth shut and wearing your burqha, living as female muslim in a fundamentalist Islamic country, for about 20 years, and THEN come back and call this brave woman "islamophobic", you spoiled, over-privileged, self-righteous little b!tch.
Even at Brandeis, they trot out the kids who have no concept of jihad to distract from the truly deadly aspect of Islam.
Obfuscation and dissembly. Seems to be working like a charm in the U.S. and U.K.
Universities never liked unique minds. Universities hate competition from people who could rebuild a University temple in three days.
America’s accademia is commiting suicide.

My bad, I initially thought the incident I'm describing took place with Justice Brandeis, not Frankfurter. Glad I checked. Was going to suggest namesake University follows the same path of denial. But I'm posting it anyway, since they are one of many institutions strolling down that road. Just following the lead of Justice Frankfurter.
In his memoirs Jan Karski describes his meeting with Felix Frankfurter, to report first hand on Hitler's ongoing destruction of European Jewry, on behalf of the Polish Government in Exile. People like FDR and Anthony Eden and many others listened politely, and ignored Karski. I'm paraphrasing, but Frankfurter told Karski he simply can't believe him. The offence must have shown on Karski's face, the Justice changed his tone, and got the message across, he can't believe him.
Thomas Doherty, chairman of American studies, refused to sign the faculty letter. He said it would have been great for the university to honor “such a courageous fighter for human freedom and women’s rights, who has put her life at risk for those values.”
A brave man, himself, to speak out publicly.
This lady, an atheist who is gay friendly, is banned from speaking because she denounces the treatment of women in the Islamic world. These same people claim that it’s misogynistic to not spend government funds on free birth control pills.
The rules of political correctness are very confusing, don’t you think?
