I think that the scumbag's statements are within the reasonable limits of academic freedom: if academic freedom doesn't protect the ridiculously unpopular, it's meaningless.

That said, I also think it's perfectly proper for alumni, potential students and the state legislature not to be willing to fund this nonsense. Students should transfer, alumni refuse to give and the state legislature should zero out the budget and shut the place down. Start a new university on that campus in which Sami baby doesn't have a job.

I'm confused. Regardless of the context, this is what Sami says: "Jihad is our path! Victory to Islam! Death to Israel! Revolution! Revolution until victory! Rolling to Jerusalem!"

Ok, for the sake of argument about academic freedom and the 1st amendment, if we removed the word "Israel" and substituted "Palestine" so that we said "Death to Palestine!", exactly how long would any of us last on an American university campus?

Would these airhead academics support a professor who dons a white sheet, raises money for the KKK, and calls for "Death to Blacks" ??...

Supposedly, this guy is currently #2 at Islamic Jihad, and is currently living in Damascus.

Yet, he's apparently still drawing paychecks from Florida taxpayers.

Just lovely. Look at what unions have done to the public sector.

Academics, and I do know them well after having worked with them for 25 years, can be very ANTI-AMERICAN! So why should this be a big surprise????? NOT!
