David Horrowitz Intends to Spread Fear,  Hatred

This coming  Monday, brace yourself for the excitement and thrills brought to 
you by the  David Horowitz Freedom Center's "Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week," 
beginning Oct.  22 and ending Oct. 26. 

This fun-filled week will feature an array of  speakers, films, enlightening 
literature and the opportunity to participate in a  sit-in. Student organizers 
can choose from a delightful list of speakers,  including:

Mark Steyn, a man who calls himself a "culturalist" rather  than a "racist" 
for finding Western culture preferable to Arab culture and who  supports 
immigration with the condition of assimilation.

Phyllis Chesler,  a professor of women's studies who wrote of the new 
anti-Semitism, which  essentially encompasses anyone opposed to Israel's policies.

And, if  you're really lucky, like students at the University of Southern 
California, Ann  Coulter, who once referred to Muslims as "ragheads" and is now 
apparently  crusading for Muslim women's rights.

The point of Islamo-Fascism  Awareness Week is to spread the word about what 
Horowitz calls the two "Big lies  of the left," that President Bush created 
the War on Terror and that global  warming is a bigger problem than the threat 
of terrorism to our national  security. Horowitz, author of the Academic Bill 
of Rights and a proponent of  bringing a "diversity" of viewpoints to the 
college campus, totes the week as  one which will bring attention to suppression of 
women's rights and Islamic  attacks on Christians, Jewish peoples, gays and 
atheists. And of course, who  better to discuss gay rights than suggested 
speaker Rick Santorum, who once  compared consensual gay sex to polygamy and incest?

The Freedom Center  will provide all materials necessary to any college 
student willing to host a  week at their campus, including a pre-made petition - 
which unabashedly invites  Muslim student associations to support the freedom of 
Americans from Muslim  terrorists.

Horowitz warns that some college administrations, which he  has criticized 
for years as supporting viewpoint discrimination in favor of  liberal 
perspectives, might "refuse necessary permits or room reservations, and  otherwise 
demonstrate their hypocrisy by failing to allow patriotic students a  voice on 
campus." Because, as you can see, this is what it means to be  patriotic, 
supporting the complete and utter insult on our intellect this  
conservative-think-tank-fueled week brings to us.
