| US Dhimmis from Georgetown U go to Paris to meet their Islamic Master |
| 2006-01-03 |
| In December, Harvard and Georgetown universities announced that they'd each received $20 million from Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Al Saud, for programs in Islamic studies....Presumably, Alwaleed's own photographer shot the event (it took place on November 7 at one of his properties in Paris).... It was a deliberately choreographed court ritual, about power and control. The most striking element in the mise en scÚne is the positioning of Prince Alwaleed. He is front and center. Immediately to his right is Georgetown president John J. DeGioia. Note that they aren't positioned as equals--as joint partners in a shared enterprise. That's because DeGioia is a mere a recipient of royal largesse, inferior to Prince Alwaleed...It's telling, too, that DeGioia is grinning in gratitude, while Prince Alwaleed remains expressionless. DeGioia has achieved a coup, having added greatly to the university's endowment.... the figure seated at the far left comes in. He's Georgetown professor John Esposito, founding director of the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, which has now been renamed for Prince Alwaleed.... |

| #8 Careful, MSN-b, we have a gutless turd popper over on the Murtha thread who's pretty sensitive about this topic. MurthaSucker doesn't show up when there's a nice long thread with much thoughtful exposition and bluff-calling on the topic, nah, then it'd have to answer questions. No, I believe it just drops a turd here 'n there under various nyms on irrelevant threads. |

| #7 I want treason to bring death. Too many people are asleep to this nonsense. What is there to "study" about Islam? We already know all we need to about it. What we need to do is stamp it out just like NAZIism was.These asstards should face a wall somplace and face the price for treason. |

| #6 A suggestion for the phoney academics when the axes begin to fall for perfidy, malfeasance, anti-American screed, and gross incompetence: Don't scream, don't yell. |

| #5 yet these academia moral frauds fight US military recruiters because of "don't ask, don't tell". Think they agreed amongst themselves that to rationalize the bucks from the Prince they'd "dont ask, don't tell"? Wonder what their Jewish colleagues think? The gays? Think they know how they'd be treated in Saudiland? The Academia females? STFU and get in the potato sack...oh yeah, and give your husband all your car keys, passport, wallet.... they must be so proud. Not everyone can swallow their own soul |
