"On Saturday, Sept. 22, Zewdalem Kebede, a political science senior and native Ethiopian, was studying in the Reserve Book Room in Love Library. Nearby, a group of Saudi Arabian students sat talking in Arabic -- a language Kebede speaks fluently, having learned it in his native country...

It's clear that Mr. Kebede is black - so this is clearly a HATE CRIME against HIM. He should report the disdainful nature in which the Saudi students spoke to him, or the way they implied that he should not be speaking Saudi. Obviously they were trying to intimidate him and infer that he, a black Ethiopian, should not speak "their" language. This is a hate crime against Mr. Kebede pure and simple. Let the healing begin...

Good logic. Turn this around to shove their own hate right in their face. Mr. Kebede is to be congratulated for confronting these undesireable, ungrateful guests in our country.

Americanism is clearly a superior culture to where these Saudi's come from. If you doubt that, just ask Saudi women. If you don't know any, read the paperback titled "Princess".

If you can't find it on the web or in stores, reply or send me an e-mail for ISBN # etc.

Don't you know, brother, that all Muslims are equal? It's just that some Muslims are more equal than others.

The Muslim world has accepted Arab dominance for more than a millenium. In some cases entire nations subjugate their own natural national interests to those of the Arab world. There are voices in the Muslim world that are beginning to speak against the Arab religious/ideological/political hegenomy, but they are often only heard on a regional level. A major focus of our public relations effort should be finding ways to amplify them.
