University Instructor: U.S. Troops Worse than the Islamic State
2014-11-05
[FREEBEACON] A University of Arizona instructor is facing criticism for claiming that the U.S. military is "a greater threat" than the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 (IS) and for portraying American soldiers as anti-Moslem rapists who commit crimes on par with--or even worse than--IS itself.

University of Arizona instructor Musa al-Gharbi--who also serves as an academic affiliate at the university's Southwest Initiative for the Study of Middle East Conflicts (SISMEC)--drew the controversial comparison between IS (also known as ISIL or ISIS) and U.S. soldiers in a recent column arguing that America's moral outrage at IS's crimes is hypocritical.

This goof should be fired and also the goof who hired him as well.

#4  I'm sure it can be arranged for the professor too go teach in IS held territory. See how appalled he is after 2 weeks. If he survivds that long.

#3  This just demonstrates that they'll let anyone be a university instructor, as long as they don't have to give him tenure. He'll probably get an endowed chair paid for by the Saudis.

#2  ....arguing that America's moral outrage at IS's crimes is hypocritical.

He's only a bit confused. It's the Champ's moral courage regarding ISIS that is hypocritical. If he were not conflicted by his obvious allegiance to the prophet, he would pursue ISIS more aggressively.
