Mr and Mrs. Hazem Chehabi receiving the UCI Medal
On Thursday, there was another demonstration at UC-Irvine against the bloody Syrian regime. One poster demanded that UCI cut its ties with Hazem Chehabi, a Syrian doctor in Orange County, who, aside from being the chair of the UCI Foundation, is also the Syrian honorary consul in Orange County. The university continues to stand by Chehabi, who has contributed millions to UCI. In 2010, UCI, through the Department of Social Ecology (Yes, that's what they call it), awarded Shehabi and his wife, whom one school official called "the most beautiful woman he had ever seen", the UCI Medal.
"Ah wunnerful, ah wunnerful, ah."
Mr Chehabi is a very wealthy man, even by doctor standards. He is also a very generous man, who spreads a lot of money around.
Here are some fun facts that show some of Chehabi's political donations, which, of course, are a matter of public record. Apparently, Mr Chehabi has given to both parties. Below are the records for 2002, 2006, 2008 and 2010. Of note is that not only has Chehabi given money to Loretta Sanchez, but also to Keith Ellison and (are you sitting down?) Cynthia McKinney.

Well, in the end, it appears Chehabi didn't give enough to keep "those Jews" from defeating McKinney and sending her off to graduate school at UC Beserkley. At least that what she, her father and one of her New Black Panther bodyguards have charged.
But there is good news: Chehabi has given money to both Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa and Congressman Darrell Issa of California, who are leading the effort to dig up the facts surrounding Fast and Furious and the corruption of Eric Holder's Justice Department.
But as Syrian dictator Bashar Assad practices his own brand of social ecology in Syria, UCI continues to stand by his honorary consul in Orange County.

I presume, given his position, that Chehabi defends the regime in Syria and the war on their people. About 5,000 dead already - several times as many as in the Operation Cast Lead in Gaza. I imagine we will hear as much outrage about that in the MSU Hate Week as we hear from Chehabi about human rights in Syria.
@ Miggie
The death total is now at 9,000.
Yet these idiots at UCI screamed in horror when Israel killed 1,300 (with over 950 actual fighters) during Cast Lead.
Regarding the slaughter of 9000 Syrian citiens, Siddiqi states that Islam is the religion of peace, as sharia law is compatable with the U.S. Constitution.

"At least they're white."
P.S. Y'all are only sympathizing with the Syrian people because President Obama hasn't started bombing the army. Sooner or later you will rant that Sunni extremists are about to slaughter all the Christians, Shias, and Druzes.
@ Siarlys
I cry for the people of Syria for this is of their own doing. It was the people of Syria who propped up the Assad Regimes. Who took to the streets in support of the Regimes. And now, when they want change and Assad doesn't want to give it.
Be careful on what you want, you might get it.
