Cool idea -- turning over a rock and looking at the evil there.

9NEWS:
Former terrorists to explain 'why we want to kill you'
Two self-proclaimed former terrorists are scheduled to speak at the University of Colorado on Tuesday in a speech called "Why We Want to Kill You."
CU's College Republicans group made the request to bring in the two former Islamic terrorists, Walid Shoebat and Kamal Saleem, at a price tag of $10,000. The university has footed the bill for the 7 p.m. lecture out of the mandatory $670 per student activity fee, of which they say about $20 is used to bring in speakers annually.
And of course, the 'politically correct' are hyperventilating:
CU student-diversity groups and the Muslim Student Association are calling the event entirely anti-Muslim and are encouraging people to research the speakers.
Isn't this just a perfect example of the left's version of "Freedom of Speech"
Shoebat is an interesting character -- from his
website
Walid Shoebat Foundation.
An organization that cries out for the Justice of Israel and the Jewish people.
The Holocaust never ended but the victims have decided to defend themselves.
The occupation is in the minds of Children who are taught hatred.
Israel was the solution for the world�s greatest refugee problem that went on for two thousand years.
Why is it that on June 4th 1967 I was a Jordanian and overnight I became a Palestinian?
When I finally realized the lies and myths I was taught, it is my duty as a righteous person to speak out.
The Israeli Arab Conflict is not about geography but about Jew hatred; Throughout the Islamic as well as Christendom's history Jews have been persecuted, the persecution of Israel is just the same as the old antisemitism.
The Arab refugees are being used as pawns' to create a terror breeding ground, as a form of aggression against Israel.
The Arab refugee problem was caused by Arab aggression and not Israel. Why should Israel be responsible for their fate?
Kamal Saleem's
story is just as good:
Kamal Saleem was born to a large Sunni Muslim family in the heart of the Middle East. Kamal was recruited by the Muslim Brotherhood at a very early age and completed his first mission to Israel at the age of seven. After several years, in his late teems, Kamal was also recruited by the Palestinian Liberation Organization (The PLO) and other radical Muslim groups. The many years of his terrorist training, resulted in Kamal mastering every form of offensive and defensive terrorist tactics.
Kamal left his family and home in the Middle East as a young man to enter his mission field: the United States. He brought with him a tremendous passion to convert as many Christians and Jews as possible for the glory of Allah. He implemented his plan, and converted many people to Islam.
In 1985, Kamal's world turned upside down when he was seriously injured in an automobile accident. A Christian man tended to Kamal at the accident scene, making sure he got the medical treatment he needed. Kamal's orthopedic surgeon and physical therapist were also Christian men whom over a period of several months ministered the unconditional love of Jesus Christ to him as he recovered. The love and sacrificial giving of these men caused Kamal to cry out to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob acknowledging his need for the Savior. Kamal has since become a man on a new mission, as an ambassador for the one true and living God, the great I Am, Jehovah God of the Bible.
Kamal has tremendous insight into today's world situation and a wealth of knowledge concerning the true culture and agenda of Islam. He is well versed in both the Koran and the Holy Bible. He believes radical Islam is the most clear and present danger to both Christians and Jews in the world, as we know it today. Kamal carries a message from God to awaken the church through the truth, education, and relationships.
Heh -- no wonder the moonbats and islamofascists are so up in arms.
Boulder is a lot like Cambridge, MA and San Francisco/Berkeley in political climate.
