NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON JEWISH AFFAIRS RESPONDS TO KENT STATE

National Conference on Jewish Affairs

natlconference@gmail.com

New York, October 28, 2011 — The National Conference on Jewish Affairs, a coalition of Jewish leaders and organizations across America, applauds President Lester A. Lefton’s thoughtful remarks regarding Professor Julio Pino’s recent words and actions.

Historically, however, citizens of this country have not called for the death of an entire people or country. We are appalled that such a man should remain in a position of leadership, especially one that molds the minds of young people and our future citizens. Such blood-curdling, inciting rhetoric — calling for the death of an entire people — may be acceptable in certain countries in the Middle East, but is unacceptable here in America.

This evidently is not an isolated incident. Professor Pino in 2007 reportedly was a contributor to a jihadist news service. Journalist Mike Adams has reported the following disturbing assertions in Townhall:

DEATH TO TENURE…..MIKE ADAMS

Julio Pino is a genocidal anti-Semite who uses his university email account to boast of sodomizing the mothers of his political opponents. But he has the protection of tenure. And he also has the protection of a cowardly administration, which fails to sufficiently condemn the behavior of a man who is probably too effeminate to act on his threats of violence and intimidation.

Pino, the unhinged Kent State University history professor, recently shouted “Death to Israel” during a speech by a former Israeli diplomat. The university’s president, Lester Lefton, now says that statementwas “deplorable.” Lefton issued a statement saying Julio Pino had a right to shout “Death to Israel” and disrupt someone else’s speech. That’s good to know because I plan to barge into Julio Pino’s history class next week and shout “Death to Julio Pino!” If the president doesn’t write a letter supporting my right to do so, I plan to barge into his office and shout “Death to President Lefton!”

I can do all this because we all know that shouting other people down and drowning out their protected free speech with threats of violence is also protected free speech. It’s what the Founding Fathers intended. Death to Jefferson! Death to Madison! Kill them all!

President Lefton surprised me when he wrote “We value critical thinking at this university and encourage students to engage with ideas that they find difficult or make them uncomfortable.” Well that’s just great! That must mean that Kent State has no university speech code. And that means we can engage in a little experimentation.

13 AMERICANS KILLED IN AFGHAN BOMBING….

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — A Taliban suicide bomber rammed a van into an armored NATO bus Saturday in Kabul, killing 13 American troops and four Afghans, U.S. and Afghan officials said, in the deadliest attack on coalition forces in more than two months.

The explosion, which occurred as the convoy was passing the American University, sparked a fireball and littered the street with shrapnel. Heavy black smoke poured from burning wreckage at the site.

The armored personnel carrier, known as a Rhino was sandwiched between of a convoy of mine-resistant military vehicles traveling on a four-lane highway frequently used by NATO forces in a southwestern section of the city.

NATO said 13 service members were killed, but a U.S. official confirmed they were all Americans. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the issue.

DANIEL GREENFIELD: HIPSTERS, HIPPIES, HOMELESS AND HOPELESS

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/
It’s been a while since we’ve done one of these, but before we get into it, I would just like to mention that Glenn Beck will be at the Freedom Center’s Restoration Weekend. As will a far humbler figure, me.

THE HIPPIE, HIPSTER, HOMELESS OCCUPATION CONTINUES

You can’t smell Zuccoti Park from uptown, but if you’re unlucky enough you can spot the occupiers making their way there. The Hipsters/Hippies/Homeless ratio has made for very poor hygiene and a fantastic opportunity for the rats to make a comeback in Lower Manhattan.

The weather is turning chilly. This morning the temperature was in the 40’s and even though tents have been allowed, the hippies and hipsters are about to start discovering how the other third lives. The ones who actually are hopeless.

Hipsters may live in walk ups, but they like to have the heat on and there’s a reason hippies usually prefer warmer weather and many of the city’s guests from the other side of the coast are about to discover how quickly temperatures here can change and how uncomfortable even mild Northeastern weather can be when you’re used to warm air.

MARK DURIE: AUSTRALIAN WEBSITE DESIGNED TO INVITE CONVERTS TO ISLAM

MyPeace on TV: “Islamic Values” markdurie.com blog is an Australian dawah (i.e. missionary) website.  It is designed to invite people to convert to Islam.  Disingenuously it states that it exists to “address the many misconceptions about Islam”. MyPeace is unashamed in declaring the superiority of its beliefs.  For example mypeace.com.au characterizes Christian beliefs as ‘blasphemous’, […]

BRYAN PRESTON: THE PERILS OF PERRY….

The Trouble with Romney and the Perils of Perry

“The solution? Perry needs to go retail and talk radio/online media in a big way. Perry should forget the attacks on Romney, just deliver his message and explain his record in a disciplined and relentless way. Do multiple daily appearances in Iowa explaining his plans and message to everyday voters, get those appearances captured and posted on YouTube and moved on blogs and social media. Get them in the local newscasts. Run positive issue ads in Iowa and South Carolina. Attack Obama often, get under his skin and make him respond directly to you. Hit the president on specifics and show where, for instance, Perry’s energy plan will undo the damage Obama is doing and thereby create jobs. As for the debates, attend some, skip some, as the schedule allows, but don’t make an issue of skipping them and don’t let them control the campaign schedule.”

Mitt Romney’s support and his negatives are baked into the GOP primary. To Romney’s supporters, either his various contradictory policy and issue positions don’t matter or they’re outweighed by his “electability.” They think he is best positioned to defeat President Obama, and so far nothing seems capable of dissuading them. His air of inevitability is gone, but his support remains steady in the 20s. He isn’t going up, and he isn’t going down.

SRDJA TRIFKOVIC: A HELLENIC HAIRCUT

The private banks that had splashed out on ostensibly lucrative Greek bonds will have to accept a “haircut” of fifty percent of their nominal value, according […]

MARTIN SHERMAN: THE REAL RACISM: EXPECTING JEWS TO DIE MEEKLY

http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=243452 Into the Fray: Israel needs to once again convey, unapologetically, to the world the rationale for its founding. The most accurate way to describe Israel today is as an apartheid state… 3.5 million Palestinians and almost half a million Jews live in the areas Israel occupied in 1967, and yet while these two groups […]
