He begins with the notorious case of Sami al-Arian, the computer science professor who, formerly employed as an academic at the University of South Florida in Tampa, helped finance and direct Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), one of the murderous range of terror groups killing Israelis and American visitors to the Jewish state.
Notwithstanding a strident defense campaign by his leftist and liberal peers in our universities, he is now awaiting trial on charges that have expanded to include support for Hamas, the Saudi-backed "big brother" of PIJ.
As Kushner shows, al-Arian's career in America began 20 years ago at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, in the company of another extremist, who would become his brother-in-law, Mazen al-Najjar.

Interpol Chief Talks of Language Barrier
An Arab country might seek information on a suspect for money laundering or document fraud, Noble said in a hypothetical example. A Western country seeking the same suspect in a terrorism probe might fail to process the message and therefore miss the connection.

Campus Support for Terrorism
Perhaps the most notorious example of a professor’s active role in the terrorist jihad is that of Osama “Sami” al-Arian, a University of South Florida professor who before his arrest was the North American head of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, an organization that has murdered more than 100 people in suicide bombings in the Middle East, including two young Americans.

In a current court case, one Las Vegas gambler testified he had channeled up to half a billion dollars through an off-track betting site in Fargo, N.D., licensed to a fund that provided athletic scholarships for North Dakota State University.

Berube and other leftists guffawed over the presence of Barbra Streisand and Katie Couric in the base, as though no one could take these women seriously (imagine if conservatives had tried that) and because (along with other leftists) they were included in a site along with Islamic radicals like Sami al-Arian and the “blind sheik” Abdul Rachman. Al-Arian is the imprisoned North American leader of Palestine Islamic Jihad and Abdul Rachman is the convicted head of the Islamic Group which tried to blow up 200,000 commuters in the Lincoln and Holland tunnels a dozen years ago, and actually bombed the World Trade Center for good measure.
