In 2008 Basak Otus, a writer
for Yale Daily News, the leading news source for Yale University wrote an article that
started:
English majors getting tired of Shakespeare and Wordsworth will soon be able to
turn to Yale’s libraries for a poet of a different kind altogether: Osama bin
Laden.
The backlash to this article
should have been taken as a prophetic warning of what was to come akin to the
hand writing on the wall of King Belshazzar of Babylon in
the book of Daniel. In that story the fingers of a man’s hand
appeared and wrote on the wall an ominous warning that the prophet
Daniel interpreted as meaning:
1) God has
numbered your kingdom, and finished it.
2)
You have been weighed in the balances, and found wanting
3)
Your kingdom has been divided, and given away.
Basak
Otis’ article in 2008 pointed out that Yale no longer had America’s best
interests at heart, but was in a love affair with one of the most notorious men
of the modern era: Osama bin Laden. Perhaps the article would have faded into
the background and remained forgotten if Yale woke up when it was attacked that
June by a jihadist
firebombing which was intended to destroy their power plant. But the
wake-up call was ignored!
Yale
University reverted to its love affair with Osama bin Laden and published a sharia
compliant version of a book about Muhammad cartoons, by censoring the
illustrations from being printed. This occurred in September 2009, less than
three months after the attempted fire-bombing.
It was
Yale University’s overt attempt to display “dhimmitude”—submission to Muslims,
rather than show their heritage as great defenders of the First Amendment. Yale
had the opportunity to take a strong stand for America and her beliefs in
liberty for all of her citizens! It was a chance to be seen as the University
that defends the First Amendment. Yale, however chose to become an example of
“being weighed and found wanting” in their defense of the US Constitution.
In
2014 Yale Law School hosted Rachid Al-Ghannouchi to speak to its students and the community
as well. Rachid is a member of the Ennahda Party in Tunisia. Ennahda is the Muslim Brotherhood
entity in Tunisia. Osam bin Laden was and is still counted as a member of the
Muslim Brotherhood. Yale University has people that vet public speakers. How is
it possible they did not know that Al-Ghannouchi was a staunch defender of
Hamas[1], a US declared terrorist entity?
Yale’s last act of dhimmitude was
their receipt of $10 million dollars from the son of Saleh Abdallah Kamel, a documented
financer of Al-Qaeda with
banking ties with Osama bin Laden, himself. Yale has agreed to place an Islamic
Law Center in their Law School, but refuses to acknowledge that Islamic law is
sharia[2]. This act equates Sharia
with the US Constitution.
The act of placing an
Islamic Law Center at Yale forces the university to fight itself. Those
studying at Yale to earn degrees in its seminary must take a stand, it is their
Christian duty. The Music School also must fight this as Sharia requires the
destruction of musical instruments and the very concept of a Music School[3].
The writing was on the wall
in 2008. It seems 2015 is the year that Yale
becomes divided against itself and will soon no longer exist as the great
educational institute it once was.
Can Yale survive its
Dhimmitude? I think not?

I fear that this is more of a trend than an isolated instance. For a long time, our colleges have only allowed the coverage under the First Amendment to include "accepted", very narrow thought.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bruce! As my two books show this is far from an isolated event. However, it is the first recorded event where an American college is knowingly schmooz affiliates of Osama bin Laden!
