UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA JIHAD

Fans of Berkeley's jihad against Jews will no doubt be pleased to note that there are some boffo events scheduled for this week.


Gaza Solidarity Week

Tuesday, January 27
Gaza Under Siege Teach In
Wheeler Hall, 6 PM

Teach in and panel discussion about life in Gaza, the current humanitarian situation, the geopolitical context and history of events leading up to the incursion. (Co-Sponsored by the Ethnic Studies Department)

Panelists:
Prof. Beshara Doumani
Prof. Judith Butler
Prof. George Besharat
Dr. Hatem Bazian

[Note: any mention of Hamas' responsibility for events, or the kneecapping of Fatah members by Hamas goons, is probably guaranteed to get you beaten up by Hamas sympathizers at Berkeley.]


Wednesday, January 28
We Are All Palestinian Vigil
Upper Sproul, 5 PM

Join us in a candle light vigil commemorating the lives lost in Gaza. Rally against Israeli violence, the killing of Palestinians in Gaza, and violence experienced by communities of color here at home. Remember Oscar Grant.

[Note: Any mention of Jewish life in pre-independence Palestine, the pogroms by the Mufti's vile goons, or even the Fatah members executed by Hamas upon their violent take-over a while back, is extremely likely to get you beaten up by Hamas sympathizers at Berkeley.]


Thursday, January 29
We Shall Remain Palestinian Cultural Night
MCC/Heller Lounge 7 PM

Open mic for students to speak up and out about anything from Gaza to Oakland.

[Note: Any criticism of the racism of Hamas and other extreme branches of the Palestinian movement, the institutional bigotry of UC Berkeley, as well as the brutal repression of dissent in Gaza by the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood (which is banned in most Arab countries), will almost certainly get you beaten up by Hamas sympathizers at Berkeley.]


These events are brought to you by the Gaza Solidarity Coalition, and sponsored by:
Afghan Student Association
Arab Resource & Organizing Center
Arab Student Union
Berkeley Stop the War Coalition
Black Recruitment and Retention Center
By Any Means Necessary (BAMN)
Center for Race and Gender
Department of Ethnic Studies
Ethnic Studies Undergraduate Student Collective
Gaza Solidarity Coalition
Islamic Awareness
Middle Eastern Children's Alliance
Muslim Student Association
Pakistani Student Association
Phi Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority
Students for Hip Hop
Students for Justice in Palestine
Students for Social Change
Turkic Student Association
Xinaxtli
Young Entrepreneurs of Berkeley

[Partial List]


The organizations listed above are, more or less, a representative sample of the Hamas sympathizers in the city of Berkeley, its institutions, and on campus. Anti-Semitism, hate speech, and violence can reasonably be expected from members of some of the groups listed above and their supporters.
Similar tendencies are also rife among faculty and administration of the university (as also elsewhere at other campuses (campi) in the UC system).

Unfortunately, the situation on the Berkeley campus is not likely to improve until faculty and administration acknowledge the gravity of the problem and commit themselves to rectifying it.
Given the institutional anti-Semitism pervasive throughout the University of California, that is likely to happen at approximately the same time as the over-freezing of hell.

Students with a strong Jewish sense of self should consider enrolling elsewhere until and unless the situation at Berkeley changes, and Jewish organizations and benefactors should be made aware that their continued support of an anti-Semitic campus ultimately works against their own interests.
The stigma of being labeled an anti-Semitic campus might prompt faculty and administrators towards some necessary corrective action - but I sincerely doubt it.

Last night in Oakland, a charming group gathered together to learn just how the murder of Oscar Grant is related to the situation in Gaza.

The attentive crowds learned that Mossad snipers killed African Americans during Hurricane Katrina, and that those fine men in blue- Oaklands police department, were trained in Israel.

Yes, these factograms and others exist solely in the minds of the programs organizers, among which is the notorious truth optional Arab Resource & Organizing Center, but the crowd bought into it, hook line and sinker.

I suppose teaching hate and inciting violence works so well in Hamas controlled Gaza, that they just couldn't resist trying it out in Oakland, too.

Their announcement follows:

In 20 days over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed. In 2008, 11 people of color were killed by the Oakland Police forces, Oscar Grant their latest victim. Come learn about the connections between state-sponsored violence in Palestine and in Oakland, and why self-determination is critical in both places. Come in support, leave inspired to do more.

Its worse than that, Randy- they have asked the attendees to come to the Berkeley vigil today, presumably to bring the intifada to the University

If there is a riot on Telegraph Avenue, they need only pick up the ANSWER-log to capture the ring-leaders.
Sab ANSWER-log chutthia bhainchot, aur haramzadi jihadi hai. Marto.

ANSWER and Hamas supporters cheered the assault on Bombay.

From which we can see that much of the Muslim movement, from Pall-nazis in Gaza to rancid Pakistani Jihadis in India, are of one mind.

A loathsome religion, for loathsome people. Should have expelled all of their kind from India at independence. Bugger them. And the racid camels they rode in on.
Pakistan aur dar-e Islam mardabad!

"If there is a riot on Telegraph Avenue" who would care?

Grant,

While as an Indian (and presumably a Mumbaiwallah) you undoubtedly have more than sufficient reason to despise all Pakistanis and loathe Muslims in general - and there is much there to be laothsome about - it doesn't fit into the general tone of this blog to tolerate bigotry. Please tone down your rhetoric. If you choose to fire-bomb a Paki restaurant, that is not my concern. If you decide beat the stuffing out of a random pro-Palestinian activist, it will probably not bother me in the slightest. Those are your own affairs. But spewing racist venom on this blog is not cricket.

Unless, of course, you do it lyrically and with wit. After all, I do aim to provide my readers with material that tickles.

So much for Coalition building.

Almost NO one showed up for the anti-Israel vigil at Sproul, AND Jim Harriss' last minute attempt to protest Benny Morris' talk was laughable. What, Jim- 6 of you showed up maybe?

Mona gave out postcards of Students for Just Us in Palestine activities to the crowd, who politely took and discarded them.

How does it feel to be irrelevant, kids?

Pithy Amphibous, I beleive that Snooky Wong has already dealt with the panty issue. To any possible satisfaction - especially Grant Patel's.

Lev, no doubt, will also enjoy her juicy disquisition. Because of the Patel connection.

As, perhaps, will you.
