Professor Angry Over Packages for Troops, Calls them “Shameful”
Fox News ^ | 11/14/11 | Todd Starnes

Posted on 11/14/2011 11:17:41 AM PST by Nachum

A Suffolk University law professor has issued a blistering e-mail calling plans to collect care packages for U.S. troops “shameful.” Professor Michael Avery also questioned the intent of an American flag hanging in the law school’s atrium (snip)“I think it is shameful that it is perceived as legitimate to solicit in an academic institution for support for men and women who have gone overseas to kill other human beings,” Avery wrote in an e-mail to his colleagues. “The United States may well be the most war prone country in the history of civilization.”

This is just so typical of a 60s Lib. So very, very typical. First this statement:

The United States may well be the most war prone country in the history of civilization.

Really????? Is he serious? What about the Roman Empire? Or the Mongols? Or the Ottoman Turks? In terms of sheer cruelty and terror, what about the Huns or the Vikings?

This guy has 60s blinders on, whereby all US wars after Viet Nam are horrible, murderous slaughter-fests, notwithstanding the actual facts that all US wars after Viet Nam have been the most humane wars in the history of the world.

This dope even repeats the tired 60s bromide that World War II was the last good war. This was the war where we firebombed enemy civilians and dropped an atomic bomb. Not to say those acts weren't justified but how on earth can you say the Iraq War was barbarity compared to the "good" war--WWII?

At the end of the day, this is stupidity and ignorance pretending to be intellectualism.

Obviously he's never heard of the Babylonian Empire, Persian Empire, Greek Empire(s), the Roman Empire, the Napoleonic Empire, or especially the USSR.

Actually, on second thought, he probably has heard of the last one...

Why is he standing in front of the US flag if it offends him so much?

He looks homosexual.

Professor Michael Avery of Suffolk University attended University of Moscow, U.S.S.R. 1968-1969.

Never says he graduated University of Moscow. I bet he withdrew because they weren't Marxist enough for him.

Seriously, this POS was in the USSR on a draft deferment while their proxies were killing our kids in Viet Nam?

“The United States may well be the most war prone country in the history of civilization.”

I'm glad he isn't a history professor. This statement shows a remarkable lack of knowledge of basic history.

Iroquois, Sioux, Aztecs, Huns, Mongols, Vikings, Celts, Romans, Spartans (FTM Greeks in general), Assyrians, etc., etc., etc.


And Apache, the name itself means "enemy" in Zuni. Heck, if you were a Jivaroan male there was a 60% you were going to die in battle.

Some of the most ignorant people I have ever known were college educated. That’s a fact.
