THE FORGOTTEN REFUGEES
DOWN WITH THE DICTATORSHIP IN IRAN
Neda Agha-Soltan was shot and killed by the Islamic Regime of Iran during the June 2009 protests in Tehran. Neda was killed while exercising her fundamental human rights. All she wanted was to support her friends and to advocate for freedom.
1,000,000 MIDDLE EASTERN JEWS
ETHNIC CLEANSING?
Martin Luther King Jr.
“Peace for Israel means security, and we must stand with all our might to protect its right to exist, its territorial integrity. I see Israel as one of the great outposts of democracy in the world, and a marvelous example of what can be done, how desert land can be transformed into an oasis of brotherhood and democracy. Peace for Israel means security and that security must be a reality.” -Martin Luther King, on March 25, 1968

- I am a journalist and researcher, and have written several research and investigative pieces on various anti-American, antisemitic and anti-Israel groups. My work has been published with several notable organizations, including CAMERA on Campus, FrontPageMagazine, the Investigative Project on Terror and Pajama's Media. I have worked to raise awareness about issues concerning the Middle East, including the lack of attention to the plight of Mizrahi Jewry and the discrimination of other minorities. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine with distinguished honors, earning a Bachelors of Arts in English. I can be reached at Reut AT reutrcohen DOT com. While I will endeavor to respond to every e-mail, I am not receptive to antisemitic and anti-Israel propaganda.

And what shall the response be to this...filth?
The last event should be interesting. If Malik Ali says that we should donate money to Hamas, or admits that he does (which is pretty likely), I am pretty sure that it is a punishable crime.
Time for a terrorism round-up at the UC Irvine campus...
dude...that guy was retarded. just plain old retarded. mujahideen want to move the world forward? what planet did he come from?
Phixit: I trust you received my message via Facebook. We're having events and programs, and we'll also be flyering for the outdoor events. Once I know about dates and we get funding dealt with, I will post about events. Let me know if you'd like to help next week.
Our message this week was not reactive to any group (we had this week's pro-Israel message planned way in advance of the MSU events), and students really seem to like what we're doing. We had a BBQ and we're giving out lots of neat free stuff while educating people on what Israel and Israelis have done for the world (i.e. technology, medicine).
Student of Objectivism: That is why it is critical to document speakers. It also helps just to have a record of their argument.
anonymous 1: The events should be very interesting. Basically, the same speakers from last year's will be here spewing their hateful propaganda.
Phixit: I spoke to him (Musa) today after he gave a talk near the flagpoles. His talk focused on "Islamic Revivalism." I asked him if he would care to comment on and condemn Palestinian suicide bombers and violence against Israelis. Instead, he started accusing Israel of terrorism. He also mentioned how the Israelis are all Europeans (which is not true). I pointed out that my family was forced to flee the Arab world and were refugees. He didn't care to acknolwedge that in the beginning. In the end he suggested that perhaps I should consider going to Iraq [or Syria], to which I responded: "Nah, I don't think they really want me there."
I think it is blatantly obvious that Musa is guilty of presenting misinformation. He blames the "Jews" for just about every crime against humanity, including the slave trade. We pointed out that the Arabs have been/are involved with slave trading. He says the Zionists are behind it, ultimately.
At least I know what his position is now. Although you can't convince someone to be open-minded, I think it's important to understand their mentality.
Also, I spoke to one fairly positive and seemingly moderate young man with the MSU. He actually acknowledged Israel's right to exist and I told him that I think Palestinians should have a state once there is a revision in their corrupt government (PLO/Hamas). I was really impressed until someone with the MSU remarked "how about giving the Palestinians their land." I really don't think this group is interested in a two-state solution, proactive debate or anything remotely peaceful, yet I have been accused of being an extremist. This is why AFI isn't interested in co-sponsoring events with the MSU. It seems pointless when the group as a whole is so against Israel and calls for Israel to be "wiped of the map."
Why are Jews such fucking wimps? You people should be threatening to burn the school down or to riot.
This is not about free speech but about the advcating of genocide of the Jewish people and the destruction of Israel!
If my people were on the receiving end of such abuse I would sue every single person in UC involved with this event. Where are all the Jewish lawyers in this case?
I use to be on your side dudes but at this point I don't even care anymore. If the Jewish people don't care about themselves than how do you expect anybody else to?
I firmly believe that that the fact that most Jews now have only one Jewish parent is behind this defeast attitude. Real Jews don't exist anymore in America.
Take it with a grain of salt, but Wikipedia has an article on Lenni Brenner and Dovid Weiss
and here's a link to Imam al-Asi's website
May the bastards of the MSU do something wrong this week so UCI can finally have a third strike against them and thus an excuse to throw the bums out.
