MSU Hate Week, Monday -- More Jewish Blood Libel
Posted by: Jonathan Constantine | 05/13/2008 7:05 AM
Day 2 of the MSU's hate week came to no avail. Since it was raining, turnout was low, and as usual Muhammad al-Asi was hearing crickets. Yesterday he gave his routine stump speech against Jewish immigration and settlement in Israel, rebuking the race as filthy hoodlums who took the lowly ghetto lifestyle they learned in Europe and brought it to an otherwise pristine Arab world.
Like last year's speakers, al-Asi felt right at home as the MSU built him a suitable antisemitic and militant environment:
Below is some AK toting terrorism as freedom fighting:
Using the same rehashed material from last year, the MSU reminds us again that they are willing to invoke standard Jewish blood libel, that is the stereotypical scapegoating and depiction of Jews as indecent and inhumane cannibals. This racist caricature is no different:
Does this look familiar? It's certainly not new. The rise of 1930's fascism produced similar illustrations. Below is a caricature from Der Stürmer in 1938 referring to the 1899-1900 trials against Leopold Hilsner, a Jewish man falsely convicted of ritualistically slaughtering two young Bohemian women.
And yet again, the Israeli flag defiled in blood libel:
Its hilarious that these ant-semitic genocidal terrorist maniacs are right here in Irvine, and the campus administration not only supports these people, but actually hangs out and shmoozes with them.
Disturbing, predictable, and illuminating. Did the administrators, local campus paper, or professors condemn the racism and call for war and religious bigotry? Or does libeling America, Israel, and western democracies offend nobody? Why is calling for a new holocaust acceptable under the college speech codes?
I noted on the wall today that there is a quote from none other than H Rap Brown-now in prison for murdering a cop. This is who the MSU quotes as a role model?
No way to win hearts and minds, folks.
Eric,
The answer to your question is that the university will not condemn it. They defend it as "free speech". They are basically indifferent to the concerns of Jewish students, and, in recent times, have called them troublemakers and outside groups.
Last week, over 500 people showed up to applaud Norman Finklestein, including several deans. Yet not one cared enough to listen to the words of Nonie Darwish, a former Muslim who puts her life on the line to defend Israel, the US and condemn Muslim terror. About 20 people came to hear her speak. I was the only faculty member (and I am only a part-timer at that.) Dean of Judicial Affairs, Edgar Dormitorio paced outside the hall, but would not come in to hear her words.
That is the leadership of UCI.

I'm either in denial that the administration is unevenly balanced in support of anti-semitism or there is more fear that drives them to favor hate mongers. I believe Palestine has a valid voice but where is it, does it have to be anti-semitic to get noticed in their own eyes? When is CIVILIZED, SANE free speech going to take the foreground
for Palistinian sympathizers? Israel is not going to disappear, hating her is not the solution. Working with her is.
Gary,
Looks like Edgar and Sally took your advice. Edgar sat (and tried to look interested) while Sally took copious notes on her lap top at the Horowitz Lecture. See you can teach an old dog new tricks. Funny though, that the lecture was held in campus Siberia
Yes indeed. I hope they weren't too offended by my comments about the university administration.
If the shoe fits......
You bet the local campus paper won't tolerate this insanity. Check the Opinion section of the New University next week.
Hopefully they won't Aaron... I haven't liked what I've seen from NEW U last week.
Just for the record- Al-Asi is a racist thug.
Just for the record, Al-Asi can suck my dick. He's almost as stupid and ignorant as Malik Ali.
