#1 Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal told The Washington Post the image of Islam has been tarnished since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

It had been tarnished way before then.

#2 Muslim-Christian understanding. How hard is that? You convert to Islam or die.

#3 I think I'm gonna be ill.

Forty-plus years ago my dad was denied admission to Harvard. He maintains to this day it was because he is jewish and they had already filled their quota. I'm glad to see that anti-semitism will finally become the official policy of both G'town and Harvard, instead of being an unspoken 'understanding.'

#6 The center will be renamed the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding.

We understand you just fine, Princey. You want to waste yer money, no problem. The only people who will use the center are already-muslims and poli-sci guys trying to understand the nature of the enemy.

#7 Smart move. Let's say each endowed professorship is $2 million. That gives the Wahabis say in selecting 10 professors sympathetic to their cause. Each year, 10 profs can indoctrinate several thousand of the nation's brightest (many who will work in the federal government and politics), write numerous questionable papers and hold numerous "Islam is Peace" press conferences to weaken resolve.

The only reasonable and self preserving course of action is the Giuliani response to Bin Talal.

#8 Is it too much to ask that Harvard and GTown "just say no, thank you" to these guys? Tell 'em to take their thinly-veiled bribes elsewhere. Canada, maybe.

#9 This reminds me of Lenin's comment about the capitalist selling the rope with which to hang him. Have we always had this many useful idiots?
