David Horowitz, you crazy, beautiful, evil genius, you.
The Freedom Center is organizing Islamo-fascism Awareness Weeks at over 110 colleges, and universities, throughout the nation, and two in Israel, so far. I believe the goal is for 200 campuses to participate during the week of October 22-26.
Horowitz has had it with the unfettered political correctness concerning radical Islam, which amounts to a de facto alliance between the left, and the terrorists, and undermines our national security.
The academic left wants people to believe that to link radical Islam with terrorism is Islamophobic, and the “reason they hate us” is because we’re “oppressors”.
Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week is a national effort to oppose these lies and to rally American students to defend their country.
Prominent speakers will include, Ayan Hirsi Ali, Mark Steyn, David Horowitz, Nonie Darwish, Christina Hoff Sommers, Phyllis Chesler, Frank Gaffney, and Danial Pipes.
They are planning teach-ins, sit-ins, student petitions, documentary film screenings, distribution of pamphlets, and memorial services for the victims of Islamic Terror.
If there’s a participating campus in my area, I might have to check it out. I’ll make sure I bring my camera.

If they’re all happening at once, who’ll be organizing them at the individual colleges? If they just leave it up to the faculty, it won’t turn out very well.

They’re providing a student guide for conservative students to use at each campus. You can access it by clicking on the David Horowitz link.
I imagine they have a myriad of speakers that will be speaking at the campuses.
No, obviously they can’t leave it up to the faculty. Horowitz knows better than that!

Reasons conservative activists will not get front page coverage?
Oh, our chicks are hotter, but us guys won’t inflate our scrotes. I’m pierced, but thats not enough for a front page article.

Dear all,
I still have some questions about the term ‘Islamo-fascism’. I have tried to explained the reason in a comment on my blog.
All the best

Stephen Shwartz, a Muslim convert, describes it thus:
“Islamofascism refers to use of the faith of Islam as a cover for totalitarian ideology. This radical phenomenon is embodied among Sunni Muslims today by such fundamentalists as the Saudi-financed Wahhabis, the Pakistani jihadists known as Jama’atis, and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. In the ranks of Shia Muslims, it is exemplified by Hezbollah in Lebanon and the clique around President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Iran.
Islamofascism … pursues its aims through the willful, arbitrary, and gratuitous disruption of global society, either by terrorist conspiracies or by violation of peace between states. Al Qaeda has recourse to the former weapon; Hezbollah, in assaulting northern Israel, used the latter. These are not acts of protest, but calculated strategies for political advantage through undiluted violence. Hezbollah showed fascist methods both in its kidnapping of Israeli soldiers and in initiating that action without any consideration for the Lebanese government of which it was a member. Indeed, Lebanese democracy is a greater enemy of Hezbollah than Israel.”
