A West Point law professor has resigned following backlash over an article in which he advocated for attacks on Islamic holy sites as part of a “total war” on radical Islam.
William C. Bradford is sticking by his opinions following an uproar over a July paper titled “Trahison des Professeurs” (Treason of the Professors), which led to his resignation Sunday, The Washington Post reported.
“I stand by my article,” he told the paper, arguing that he had been “taken out of context” by people who had not read his article.
“I would suggest that the best approach to the problem I outline is competition in the marketplace of ideas,” he posited.

Oh yeah. I always try and refrain from “ NUke the bastards!!” And let em glow in the Dark.. Some folks have real thin skin these days. No amount of SPF is gonna do the trick.
We can’t say “Death to Islam” sorta like the Iranians do?
Who is running West Point these days? Michael Moore ?
Isn’t this what military scholars do, propose strategies under different scenarios and different opponents?
Apparently, this guy was caught falsely claiming to have a Silver Star a few years ago. How did he get hired at West Point?

West Point became “politicized” around 1865.
If I were still working at my last two companies almost every other Freerepublic post would be sufficient to get me fired. People who want to keep their jobs do not have freedom of speech or opinion anymore.
Speech at both companies was codified into things you could and could not talk about. At the ITT subsidiary there was a list of forbidden topics. The only allowed speech had to be work related. Personal conversations in public areas were discouraged. The HR lady was like a Soviet political officer. She wanted me written up for an overheard lunchtime conversation about concealed carry. When I protested that concealed carry wasn’t on the forbidden list and it was lunchtime my boss said, (essentially) “It was on company property and you’re a smart guy. You should be able to look at the list and determine that guns would be off limits too.”
Michael Moore says to nuke islam? When did this happen?
Death to Islam: Lose your job
Death to America: $100B, your own ICBMs, and nukes to put on top of them.

Does’t everyone love America’s tolerance? We tolerate everything in America now...except conservative opinions.
Give this man a cabinet position!
** Who is running West Point these days? Michael Moore ? **
A guy name Hussein, as I recall.
Leave ‘em wondering which way to turn their prayer rugs...
If acknowledging that Islam is the enemy gets you banned from West Point, this country is going to find itself under the command of ISIS very soon. At best, the leadership at West Point spinelessly capitulated to Hussein Soetoro _ and it's probable that they are actually in full agreement with the Nation of Islam.
