After months of being the target of protest, slander, and vitriol at former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice when it was announced she would be a commencement speaker at Rutgers University, she has now declined the invitation. What we didn’t know is that a cabal of Muslim student militant wannabes is the reason.
Daily Targum by Jaweerya Mohammad While President Robert L. Barchi continues to stand by his and the Board of Governors’ decision to invite Condoleezza Rice to speak at this year’s commencement ceremony, ironically enough, Rice herself announced that she will be declining the invitation in light of student, faculty and community protests.
Protests were expressed in the form of op-eds and open letters published in The Daily Targum and sent directly to the administration, a faculty petition and ultimately, direct action including a sit-in at Old Queens and other public protests.
A letter to the editor in the Targum on May 2, titled “Protests should not tarnish commencement,” “expressed grave concern” on the suspicion that the commencement ceremony may turn violent because of Muslim protesters.
A statement made by the Targum in its May 1 editorial, titled “#NoRice deserves attention from Rutgers” apparently also frightened this writer and caused her to appeal for a public apology: “Whatever happens at commencement, it will be on Barchi and the Board of Governors to deal with the ramifications of brushing aside the student voice.”
Frankly, as a Muslim, Pakistani-American woman, I am exhausted of having to apologize for actions that I did not commit and take on the job of educating others to not be xenophobic and prejudiced. There is actually a petition on change.org that was started by one student opposed to protesters called “Award an Honorary Doctor of Laws to Condoleezza Rice.”
According to the petition, “protests by a militant Muslim minority of Rutgers students subverted statute and upended all civility in a defamation campaign against an honorable public servant. The actions of these students have created a dangerous environment that could have caused a security risk to a former Secretary of State …”
It is terrifying to me that students are being targeted with these racist (What ‘race’ is Islam?) comments, and that their entire mass movement is being labeled as radical and terroristic because of their religious and/or ethnic background. (Hey, if the shoe fits…)
But the writer of the letter does make a point when she states her graduation would be filled with fear: It should have been alarming that a woman who was responsible for the death of one million (in your dreams) Iraqis, 5,000 U.S soldiers and who approved torture techniques such as water-boarding (of Muslim terrorists) was being given an honorary degree and $35,000 by our University.
The ignorance displayed by the reactions of some who are upset by this outcome is a sign that this issue is far from over. If this entire situation has taught us anything, it’s the importance of becoming informed and active members of our society. That is the first step in creating a world where each individual’s basic human rights matter and are not violated. (Spoken by a member of the most oppressive, misogynistic, violent, homophobic, anti-semitic, anti-Christian, anti-American religious group in the world)
I AM PISSED! You all should see the hatred that is being spewed by Lefties at the victims of the Tornado in Central Alabama that happened a little over a week ago! You would think that the Civil War was raging. These nasty sons-of-bitches are insulting these people for being “Bible Belt”, KKK you name it! Is this the Civil War that Obama has been aching to start?
The article is on “Yahoo! Weather.com” and I haven’t seen this much hate on this web-site as I saw on this Weather Website aimed at fellow Americans.
He may stand by his fellow Muslims but it makes me wonder if they are not the only enemy to this Country.
Read it and see how you feel. It cost me a night’s sleep!
Rice and Bush did kind of blow it. They should have kept the fight going in Afghanistan and Pakistan and left the other Dictatorships alone! The more ruthless sadistic Dictators rule in the Middle East; the safer it is for Tourism! It isn’t like we have prevented Human Rights Violations; we have freed these people to be way more evil than before! They really needed an iron boot in the ass! Now look, Berserkers are free to over-run the World. Those students were wrong; Rice and Bush didn’t kill enough of them! Our current Politicians are no better than Europe’s.
Sadam was good at keeping the Irano-Nazi’s reined in. The WMD’s were a necessary tool to keep these mongrels in check. At least nine year old baby Iraqi girls were not allowed to marry under Hussein! Momar was good at keeping all the African Muslims south of the border that are now ruining Europe and Sweden. Now the Taliban should have been nuked for their part in destroying all of the beautiful Buddhist Temples. We should have also left the Muslim Brotherhood back in the Middle East. At least during the Bush administration, we didn’t have our enemies welcomed into the Whitehouse. They really have no more of a right to be in the Whitehouse than Obama does!
I forgot to mention that the World Wide War against Polio is being defeated thanks to these ruinous morons in Pakistan! Incidences of Polio are migrating back into India (and the rest of the World) via Pakistan. They think these Health Workers are anti-Muslims and so they kill them.
I think the whole Country of Pakistan should come down with Polio for their savage stupidity! Maybe that could turn the tide if they were raising a generation in wheelchairs and on crutches. Wouldn’t it be interesting if it was re-introduced into the rest of the Muslim World? It would be a gift from our God.
Your future adults of tomorrow in training… scary! Reminds me of Brandeis who also folded.
Islam is full of inaccuracies of the biblical stories , passed down through Mohammed who heard stories and mixed them up on a caravan route. He was sometimes peaceful and sometimes violent warrior in his various tactics. While I don’t make light or their anger at atrocities by our government, islam has far graver consequences of keeping people in Submission around the world and disrespecting freedom of speech around the world. I hope they get Ayan Hirsi Ali as a guest speaker. I’m kidding but I would hope these these young minds towards open up to more liberty away from the rapist and pedophile Mohammed. People should never submit to his vile and retrograde teachings in 6th century. He should be viewed only as a warrior who united a lot of people from different tribes in simple doctrine and military conquest. Many Muslims are great people, with better character than Mohammed.
JB, those “young minds” to which you refer are anything but open. They are being poisoned by the Left in their universities and do not want to hear the truth.
In one photo CR could be saying “Islam I will crush you” 🙂
Many suspect that the administration deliberately covered up the terrorist assault for political gain shortly before the election. I suspect more subversive motives that are only a part of an extensive jihadist strategy. Let us start by considering the results of Obama’s Middle East policy. He supported Islamic jihadists in overthrowing Qaddafi in Libya. Libya is now a terrorist state. He supported the so called “Arab Spring” in Egypt, which resulted in a Muslim Brotherhood terrorist state in Egypt. When the people of Egypt rose up to overthrow this oppressive government, Obama continued to voice support for the jihadists. Then, Obama tried to involve us in a Syrian conflict in support of “rebels” who are primarily led by Al Qaeda. In fact, prior to his death, Ambassador Stevens was being used by the administration to supply arms to the Al Qaeda forces in Syria. When it comes to Iran, Obama has done nothing to prevent that terrorist state from developing nuclear capability. There is evidence that the White House has been infiltrated by the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a terrorist organization. In summary, the Obama Middle East policy has been to assist Islamic terrorists where ever they can.

Ma’am, stop appologizing for the “radical muslim minority” I do not appologize for the views of White Supremisists, because I am not associated with them. Instead, I speak out against them publicly, I reveal their ignorence in debates, and in general SHOW that I have nothing to do with those people. you want people to stop stereotyping muslims and lumping them all together? Then start leading rallies condemning the radicals. Show the rest of us that yes, there are muslims that find that behavior reprehensible. Come to the aid of christians who are being persecuted by muslims (I use persecution loosely in this country, we are dealing with far less then christians in other countries are). Go to equal rights rallies and stand side by side with gays. When a christian child is punished for reading a bible or praying in school, speak to their right to do so, since it’s ok for muslims to read the koran and pray in school. Stand against Sharia laws in this country. When we see that going on, we will begin to believe that not all muslims are the same, but staying silent is seen as consent for all that.
Well said, Sir. Well said.
There are no radical and non-radical Muslims. Some are eunuchs, some are rapists and others are rapists on Viagra.
All those remaining quiet should be counted as radicals, unless they want to grow the balls that it takes to admit that they should mind their business and let other people live a Muslim – free life. Even better would be if they hate our Society, stay the Hell out of it!
It will be a cold day in Hell before I ever want to even visit their World.
Seems like college today is about nothing but becoming little brown-nosed censors.
if it wasn’t for Rice’s alleged war crimes the writer would be still be in a Burkha not allowed to read, and living in a cave somewhere
I am fed up with muzzies wanting special privileges. You are in the USA get used to it, get with the culture, or leave. Those are your choices. Islam is a political party that will soon be banned here as a terrorist organization. Go back to whatever sandy he77 hole you crawled out of we do not want you or your child molesting fake prophet
We need to bring back the crusades to eliminate this filth from our lands
So everybody knows I’m only to happy to arm up, or stand along side whoever wants to take a lead in ridding these scum from thy earth too ! Stuff these known liars they are…. :p…
Whoops, I am over half a century old and still prepared to do it !
Or, thy camels rear end that they may’ve slid out of,too…..
Why is it any protesting against wtf the muzzscum do, is busted up/classed illegally held (?) yet she’s all bloody SWEET APPLES, when thy boot on thy other foot kicking the crap outta us INFIDELS. Anyone else woken up to this trend,going on everywhere else ?
Mozzies have no place in a democracy, because they are undemocratic. Islam is a terrorist culture.
so the writer is a muslim pakistani-American woman? always muslim first american second and that is the whole problem
not to mention threatened violence
American is THIRD in the line. She is muslim first then pakistani and then American which ensures she can stay in the USA. There is NO allegiance to the USA it is a place and passport of convenience. They are subverting your culture and attempting to steal your country. Every student involved in that attack on civilisation should be investigated, kicked out of the University and stripped of residency rights and deported back to the country of ethnic/religious origin.
Don’t deport them, take a heavy equipment plane, load 300 of them at a time and fly out over a school of fish or sharks! We need to do something to pay back the ocean.
If we do this, they will not be coming back over our borders again. The End!
Let U.S. leaders go and fight in Afghanistan under ROE!
Under cruel ROE (Rules of Engagement) in Afghanistan the lives of barbaric Muslim terrorists are regarded as far more valuable than the lives of American and British military. American military have been jailed for many years in Fort Leavenworth for defending themselves from Muslim terrorists.
A British military man has also been unjustly jailed.
FREE OUR MILITARY HEROES!

………The intent of the Freedom Ride is to bring awareness to how our soldiers are being imprisoned for killing the enemy during a time of war …
An enemy that these same General’s have recently decided to release back to the battlefield on a ‘pledge’ that they won’t rejoin the Taliban. This while our soldiers who took actions to protect themselves and their fellow soldiers are imprisoned from 10 to 40 years in Leavenworth and receive no clemency whatsoever…

JUSTICE NOW! FREE OUR US and UK MILITARY HEROES!
Bring our military home now! Stop sending our military to FIGHT and DIE for ISLAM!
Linda, Michael Behenna has been released.
This is Obama’s dream. A U S of violent coercion. A U S of Islamic domination and intimation. How can the university allow these Muslims to protect the Islamic terrorists that attack the U S. This is an ‘Honor Killing ‘ Muslims lie and distort an argument for a purpose. The reason is to dominate the discussion and not to allow any other opinion. These Muslims students are liars and terrorists.
I HAVE LOST ALL RESPECT FOR RUTGERS AND FOR THOSE IN THE ADMINSTRATION.. THEY ARE THE WORST OF THE WORST AND HAVE BECOME DHIMMIS TO THE IGNORANT SLIMS….WELL THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT RUTGERS IS A COMMUNIST FEED MACHINE THAT HAS A HOOK IN ITS MOUTH BY THE ISLAMIC JIHADSIST……
Muslim tactics of choice. Throw Tantrums and threaten with Violence anyone you don’t agree with. Where are all the real Americans when this happens? To Hell With Islam and all its Deviant Practices. If These Scum bag Muslims are threatening Violence, Wheres the FBI?. Let these Deviates gain 1 inch and they will take a Mile. NO SURRENDER EVER!
This comes as no surprise, its business as usual for the Muslim.
This nice thing about this is that when the Muslim wins they really love and when they lose they lose. In either case, its a win-win for us.
What’s needed is the light of day as truth and education kill the Muslim and its Islam dead.
