UCI Intifada: Preaching Terror on Campus
* Yesterday, I visited the Crystal Cove Auditorium at UCI to hear
Amir Abdel Malik Ali, a radical Islamic activist sponsored by UCI's
Muslim Student Union. As soon as I arrived I could hear his typical
racist vitriol on how the Jewish people are the greatest threat to
civilization; the same sentiment I had heard months earlier when I heard
him at the front of the flag polls praising Hezbollah's war of attrition
against Israel. This time it was different. As soon as I took my seat,
with Sony camcorder in hand, many members of the audience gave me the
stare of death. One guy sitting next to me told me to put my camera
away. "The speaker doesn't want to be audio or video recorded, he said.
I refused. So a band of thugs from the Muslim Student Union started to
flood the aisles, blocked my camera view, and threatened to get the
police If I didn't stop recording. The police never came. From talks
with them afterward, they seemed unsympathetic to Mr. Ali and his army
of spawns. Dean Edgar J. Dormitorio, in charge of security at the event,
finally told me to go. So I succumbed to his wishes.
* The intimidation didn't stop there. Members of the Muslim Student
Union tracked my movements as I walked across the 1500 acre campus and
stalked me to my next class. As soon as I sit down, I received similar
stares. A man comes in class with his little sister, who I assume
attended the Holocaust revival speech with him, and snaps a picture of
me.
* Why did the MSU’s thugs shove and demand that I empty the footage
from my camera? We have all heard Mr. Ali preach hate before, what was
different about this time? If they sponsor men like Mr. Ali, why are
they so paranoid and embarrassed about what he has to say?
* In the spirit of full dislosure, here is some raw footage of my
struggle to capture the speech before I was forced to shut the camera
off.

Wikepedia:
"Amir Abdul-Malik Ali is an African-American convert to Islam and well
known radical Muslim activist in the United States. He is the Imam of
the Masjid Al Islam mosque in Oakland, California and a graduate of
San Francisco State University. Since the early 1990s he has been a
frequent guest lecturer at several Muslim Student Association events
and Islamic conferences. He is best known as a radical public speaker
whose oratory consists largely of anti-Semitic rhetoric, 60s-style
black radicalism, Islamic fundamentalism and conspiracy theories. He
is also a leading member of Imam Abdul Alim Musa's As-Sabiqun
movement, which has bases throughout the US."
Indeed, the footage could hardly have ruined his reputation:)
