Hat tip to Frontpage Magazine
David Horowitz's Freedom Center has placed an ad in THE Ohio State University newspaper (The Lantern) that has the little rascals all riled up. It lists former Muslim Student Association leaders of various college campuses who have gone on to join the ("lesser") jihad. Frontpage Magazine also has a report about the controversy.

Again, I invite my Muslim readers, especially those who are involved with the Muslim Student Union at UC Irvine, to weigh in. I think we can have a respectful discussion on this topic. Does the ad stigmatize all Muslims on college campuses or even all MSU/MSA members?
What about the statement that there is a fine line between freedom of speech and hate speech? How does this compare with statements made at UCI over the years by Amir Abdel Malik Ali, Mohammed al Asi, and others?
C'mon! It's all about dialogue.

Update (1-25-12): No responses to my invitation yet, but while we are at it, how about some comments on the below article from 2003? This comes from WND Commentary and concerns an MSA gathering at Queensborough Community College (NY).
