our country is sleeping through its own slaughter, with the sleeping pill being provided by liberals, most especially the media.

Note to peace activists: ‘Kum-by-ya’ has no Arabic translation.

Actually it does.

“Kum ba ya” means Kill me last.

On top of everything else, this GRADUATE STUDENT cannot spell common words in English. How did he get past the GRE and into graduate school? Again, I have to ask, why are these people in my country? And getting free ride educations, no less?

The professor was a peace activist and a convert to Judaism. Justifiable homicide under Sharia.

I wonder why he isn’t being charged with first degree murder?

Mohammedans like peace activist infidels. They are easier to kill.

Appears being a Jewish convert was the reason he was killed by the "religion of peace".

Piss be upon them all!
