Professors for Terror

At Fort Hood, homicidal terrorist Major Nidal Malik Hasan, self-proclaimed “Soldier of Allah,” shouted “Allahu Akhbar” and proceeded to kill 13 U.S. Soldiers and wound another 30. This was followed a few days later by Attorney General Eric Holder’s announcement that the admitted 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed and four al-Queda co-conspirators will be flown to downtown Manhattan near the World Trade Center site to be tried as civilians in federal court with full U.S. Constitutional protections. President Obama doesn’t want to turn the horrific terrorist attack at Fort Hood into “political theater” but he is poised to make a political show trial out of the case of the 9/11 terrorist barbarians that will put American principles, the U.S. military and our national security up on trial. We should protest this outrage and call for Attorney General Holder’s immediate resignation.
We also need to take our protest into our education system which is at the root of the destruction of America. These abrupt events are symptomatic of a greater underlying disorder that has been destroying the moral core of America for decades in our colleges, universities and public education system. This was brought home by the editorial “Professors for Terror” in the New York Post which asked the question: “Why are American universities so infatuated with terrorists who want to destroy America?”
I am reminded of the embattled pursuit to expose the terrorist cheerleaders of the City University of New York faculty union leadership and radical professorate by the courageous Dr. Sharad Karkhanis who writes the online muckraking newsletter The Patriot Returns. In one case of rolling out the welcome mat for terrorists at CUNY he describes the obsession of executive committee member Professor Susan O’Malley with finding teaching jobs for convicted terrorist Mohammed Yousry and other terrorists. He writes about her ambition “to recruit terrorists in CUNY. Given the opportunity, she will bring in all her indicted, convicted, and freed-on-bail, terrorist-friends.”
Dr. Karkhanis is now battling a multimillion dollar defamation lawsuit to silence his outspoken voice in the heart of the New York academic establishment. I responded to the New York Post editorial with the following letter to highlight Dr. Karkhanis’ bold offensive as a lesson for all of us:
In the name of “academic freedom,” University of Massachusetts is hosting leftist terrorist, Raymond Luc Levasseur who will be addressing an annual conference on Social Change as outraged police groups and the governor tried unsuccessfully to disinvite this leader of a homegrown terrorist group responsible for bombings, robberies and the murder of a police officer. But this is nothing new to New York, especially in the City University of New York, where academic officials not only invite, but also give financial aid and try to place convicted terrorists on the payroll, and enthusiastically take up cause with Hamas and other terrorist organizations. At least one brave retired CUNY professor, Dr. Sharad Karkhanis blew the whistle on the radical CUNY faculty union leaders, only to be sued for $2 million in a defamation lawsuit to bully him into silence. But he stubbornly persists in speaking out and fighting against the poisonous culture of academia that incubates the enemies of America and Israel and tried to land lucrative teaching positions for convicted terrorist conspirator Mohammed Yousry and Weather Underground terrorist Susan Rosenberg. As students, teachers or concerned parents, we should all follow his lead if we care enough about stopping the spread of anti-American indoctrination and the national security threat occurring in classrooms funded by our tax dollars.
