Loyola University Palestinian Group Suspended for Harassing Jewish Students
Doubtlessly, Loyola’s chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine will say that their freedom of speech and assembly has been denied. Problem is, they were trying to prevent Hillel members from promoting Birthright Israel, a direct violation of Hillel students’ freedom of speech and assembly.

SJP CHAPTER SUSPENDED AFTER HARASSING JEWISH PEERS, PROTESTING ISRAEL DISPLAY
The Students for Justice in Palestine chapter at Loyola University-Chicago can’t catch a break.
Following its attempt to block a Jewish event on campus, the chapter has been temporarily suspended from “hosting any on-campus activities or events,” according to an e-mailed statement from university spokesperson Steve Christensen.
That suspension will continue “until their leadership meets with University representatives and the group complies with stated policies and procedures that apply to all student organizations,” Christensen said.
The College Fix reported earlier this month that chapter members accosted and tried to block Hillel members from promoting Birthright Israel, a program that sends Jewish students to Israel to learn about their cultural heritage, in the student center.
“University reps and the organization’s leadership will discuss procedural-type topics, including registration of events and demonstrations, and room reservations,” Christensen said, declining to go into specifics.

As Bill Warner has ably documented, “Most people think that the Koran is a religious text. Instead, 64% of the text (by word count) is about non-Muslims, who are called Kafirs. The Koran is fixated on Kafirs and makes many demands on them. Not the least is that Kafirs submit to the rule of Islamic Sharia law. Ultimately Sharia law is the pure expression of Islamic politics and it completely contradicts our Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Under Sharia there is no freedom of speech, wives may be beaten and apostates murdered.” http://www.politicalislam.com/blog/religious-freedom-and-a-mosque
Making demands of non-Islamic believers IS INHERENTLY part and parcel of Islam. To that extent any effort that would deny Muslims the ability to be “fully Muslim” – as that phrase is interpreted by Muslims – would be considered by Muslims as violative of the Free Exercise Clause. That is, BEING FULLY MUSLIM MEANS (TO THE MUSLIM) IMPOSING ISLAM ON NON-MUSLIMS. This task is to be done until the whole world submits. This instruction is expressly stated, more than once, by Allah/Mohammed in their Koran, as well as in the sira and hadiths. The waging of holy war (jihad) is affirmatively imposed on all Muslims. (In Islam there are two jihads: the greater struggle (or jihad) deals with personal spirituality; the lesser struggle deals with advancing Islam throughout the world by any means necessary (including force). Strangely Muslims confuse their priorities, choosing a pre-occupation with the physical, lesser jihad. Muslims would be better advised to focus on personal, spiritual self-improvement, not on getting the rest of us to submit.)
If Muslims want to believe that Allah caused Gabriel to visit Mohammed and whisper into his ear that henceforth all Muslims should worship the historical Arabian moon god named Allah and a big black rock in Mecca among other things, who cares. That’s their choice. Believe what you want so long as you don’t bother the rest of us who want nothing to do with Islam.
But what we non-Muslims object to is Political Islam, namely the outer manifestations of this self-inflated religion which requires both Muslim and non-Muslim to behave in certain ways.
As Jefferson stated the matter, “It doesn’t matter whether my neighbor believes in one god or seventeen; it neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. But when a neighbor or associate believes that his God commands him to pick my pocket or break my leg, his beliefs become a matter of grave concern for me and any who do not share those beliefs.”
pfg: Hear, Hear. My grandparents told me awful tales of life under muslim rule. I didn’t think much of it until the past 10-15 yrs. I’ve seen nothing that does not reinforce everything they warned me about. Now I spend time deprogramming my kids of the Marxist lies that the “educational” system feed them.
It’s pretty simple. The big Mo told his followers to spread the faith by the sword of conquest. Non-believers who didn’t submit were to be killed. Muslims have followed these commands for thousands of years and those that don’t are apostates.
Islam is not the religion of peace it is the religion of war and death.
