I can already hear the Mohammed PA system with some wacko shouting in Arabic about their "prayers."
Bye, bye United Kingdom. You obviously learned nothing from history, because this Islam stuff sure as heck ain't religious. It's pure evil.

Cambridge University has been given £8 million by a Saudi Arabian prince to establish an Islamic studies centre.
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal, ranked in the top 20 richest men in the world, with a fortune of about £10 billion, has donated the cash to the university to fund a centre in his name for the study of the role of Islam in the Middle East and globally.
The gift has been recommended by the university's general board and is expected to be announced in June. advertisement
The grandson of King Ibn Saud and nephew of King Abudllah, the prince counts the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall among his friends.
With a huge portfolio generating massive returns – he calls his investments his "hundred wives" – the 50-year-old is the biggest single shareholder in Citigroup, the world's biggest bank.
In 2005 he bought the Savoy Hotel in London for about £220 million. Last year, he became the first person to buy an Airbus A380 superjumbo to use as a private jet, dubbed the "flying palace".
Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal hit the headlines in 2001 when his offer of cash for the victims of the September 11 attacks in New York was turned down after he criticised American foreign policy. New York's then mayor, Rudolph Giuliani, rejected a £6.6 million donation when the businessman issued a statement that America had to adopt a "more balanced stance" on Palestine. The row belies the prince's influence in America, however.

I bet it will...
Isn’t it great when the West cooperates in its own destruction?
I wonder if that study would include the adverse effects of Islam in the Middle East and globally.
Take the $8 million and show nothing but Islamic terrorism with Koran quotes under them!
Is it too late for the UK? I fear it is.
In other words the Prince is creating a Ministry of Propaganda for Islam.
make that a Ministry of Propaganda for Whahabi Islam.
Conversion by economic grip. I’m sure the board members of Cambridge were all handsomely bought off. Britain’s leaders both civic and corporate remind me of the “Free Money” scene in the Peter Sellers movie, “The Magic Christian”

Too bad Cambridge didn’t do a Guiliani to that Prince. The check would have made good confetti, but ala, they don’t have the courage to stand up.
Cambridge, is becoming a madrassa.
Um... we are starting Judeo-Christian studies/democracy departments there as well... right?
Yeah, right.
Nothing’s keeping us from naming Geert Wilders the director of said program... Maybe Spencer and Pipes could get the next posts. Oh... and Wufa, Gabrielle, Hirsi Ali, etc.
And they wonder why idiots that graduate from schools hate their country.
What Can’t they understand about incompatible?

Why are Islamic studies centers allowed, considering all the hatred and racism it preaches, and Christian Study centers not allowed at all?
Seems our governemnt is perposely forcing Islam on us, preparing us for the submission to Islam the UN secretary general Banu or what ever his name is says we should all comply with.
Honestly the use of these funds will depend upon whether or not there are strings attached.
If the center can be used to train the next generation for Scotland Yard too, why not?
Ideally it can be used in an manner that brings more elightened students from the ME to Cambridge to help them learn, understand and then communicate to their brethren how they can better to learn to live with us.
Naturally that is highly unlikely to happen, but hey, why not start with the benefit of the doubt.
Sad, Cambridge, along with Oxford is the heart of England’s intellectual community. It’s sad to see it go.
“Um... we are starting Judeo-Christian studies/democracy departments there as well... right?”
Send £8 million and you can start what you like mate.

I remember this twitchy little fellow from the news one month after 9/11 when Giuliani rejected his $10 million gift after Alweasel "suggested U.S. policies in the Middle East contributed to the September 11 attacks." Cheers to Rudy.
From the link: " A renowned philanthropist, the prince has made two donations of £10 million to establish Islamic studies centres at Harvard University, in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Georgetown, in Washington. He also gave £10 million to fund an Islamic art wing at the Louvre Museum in Paris."
The MSM media refers to George Soros as a philanthropist as well. The meaning of the term seems to be evolving to incude:
Philanthropy: the undermining of Western civilization.
Liberal academia does not surprise that they would whore their curricula for money. Harvard, Georgetown, Cambridge are "useful idiots of Islam"
Once a great university. Now...?
A whore is a whore regardless of the price.
Some try to fight back. They need help

I hope Cambridge told them to shove it?
Bump.
OIL money buys lots of power. The evil of Islam spreads and scatters its filth everywhere.
Nothing less than the destruction of OPEC will rid us of this evil.
BIN TALAL & B H OBAMA:
[Former Manhattan Borough president Percy Sutton told a New York cable channel that a former business partner who was “raising money” for Obama had approached him in 1988 to help Obama get into Harvard Law School. In the interview, Sutton says he first heard of Obama about twenty years ago [1988] from Khalid Al-Mansour, a Black Muslim and Black Nationalist who was a “mentor” to the founders of the Black Panther party at the time the party was founded in the early 1960s.
Sutton described al-Mansour as advisor to “one of the world’s richest men,” Saudi prince Alwaleed bin Talal.
Prince Alwaleed catapulted to fame in the United States after the September 11 attacks, when New York mayor Rudy Guiliani refused his $10 million check to help rebuild Manhattan, because the Saudi prince hinted publicly that America’s pro-Israel policies were to blame for the attacks.
Sutton knew Al-Mansour well, since the two men had been business partners and served on several corporate boards together.
As Sutton remembered, Al-Mansour was raising money for Obama’s education and seeking recommendations for him to attend Harvard Law School.
“I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him,” Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter. “The friend’s name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas.” ———————RICH AMERICAN MUSLIM MAY HAVE HELPED OBAMA INTO HARVARD LAW SCHOOL
