With Jews Like This, the Islamics Itching to Kill Jews Will Have a Field Day

After the Dutch Member of Parliament Geert Wilders address at Temple University in Philadelphia.

from Anti-Islamic Dutch lawmaker speaks at US college

Geert Wilders said:

"our Western culture is far better than the Islamic culture and we should defend it."

If the spread of Islam continues unabated in the Western world, "you might at the end of the day lose your Constitution," "Wake up, defend your freedom."

[He called for] for an end to Muslim immigration and referring to the Muslim holy book, the Quran, "an evil book" that promotes violence and intolerance.

And an opponent of Geert Wilder's remarks:

"I think it's completely wrong that someone who promotes racism and intolerance should be given a platform at this university," said Temple student Josh Rosenthal. "It's hate speech disguised as free speech."

Judging by his name, that student is Jewish--whether in name only or observant is immaterial.

The point is that the Islamics and their handmaidens of the Left do not feel all that "fair" about Jews and the Jewish state Israel.

Jew-Hatred at American universities Who's behind it?

Quotes from RADARSITE

It mostly consists of an unholy alliance of Middle Eastern professors who teach in our universities and traditional left-wing radical professors who have taken up the Palestinian cause since it fits like a glove into their own anti-American agenda.

In many cases, academic leftists, many with roots in the Middle East, have joined with traditional American leftists, anarchists and radical Islamists in order to bring an anti-Israel, anti-America, anti-Jew message to college campuses to the point where many Jews do not feel comfortable asserting their Jewish identity on campus. On many campuses, including where I teach at UC-Irvine, Jews have occasionally been accosted, insulted or shoved by pro-Palestinian students during MSU-sponsored events that attack Israel. In addition, MSU-sponsored speakers at UCI have glorified suicide bombers (Amir Abdel Malik Ali) and stated that “Jews are low-life ghetto-dwellers” or “You can take a Jew out of the ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the Jew”. (Mohammed al-Asi). This type of hate speech gets a pass from UCI administrators because it is “free speech”. It should be noted that speakers such as the above, while condemning Israel in one breath, will condemn the US in the next breath. And here, I speak as a first-hand witness.

Leftist professor Lisa Hajjar, formerly of UC Santa Barbara, now at UCLA is a regular basher of Israel and the US. During the Gaza conflict, she participated in a “seminar” at UCLA in which she told a Jewish questioner who took an opposing stand (Eric Golub) that “that Zionist hat on your head is screwed on way too tight”. (The hat was actually a fedora.)
