Ylva, Thanks for the forward. The hate mongers and trouble makers who are bent on keeping fear and discord alive for their own gains used to hide their dirty work but they have now come out in the open. Their negative messages must be countered at every turn.

For those of you not in the know, the college of republicans is sponsoring this event, so if you have the time, get involved against these wankers. g'night. cc     Dear Newsmax Reader: Please find below a special message from our sponsor, David Horowitz Freedom Center. They have some important information to share with you. Thank you. Newsmax.com  *An Urgent Message* > From the Desk of David Horowitz  *Dear Newsmax Member,* If recent history has taught us anything it is that Islamo Fascism is the biggest threat our country faces. But many Americans prefer to ignore this international campaign of terror by radical jihadists committed to world conquest. This is especially true on our college campuses, where radical professors and student groups, in an unholy alliance with pro-jihad forces, have shut down discussion of this important topic so they can continue to claim that the United States is the world's only villain. *To combat this campaign of lies and intimidation, the Freedom Center is organizing an Islamo Fascism Awareness Week for October 22-26.* We've got a great lineup of speakers like Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, former Sen. Rick Santorum, Michael Medved, Robert Spencer, Daniel Pipes, Dennis Prager and others at campuses including Berkeley, Columbia, Penn and Stanford. With events at over 150 campuses, this will be the largest demonstration ever staged by conservative students - a wake up call our country and especially our universities desperately need. Not surprisingly, the left is also organizing - to kill Islamo Fascism Awareness Week and silence the vital truths it will tell. The powerful American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee is intimidating university administrations all over the country into canceling the events our campus coordinators have set up. The Muslim Students Association, campus arm of the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, is planning disruptive actions to drown out our message. And most alarming of all, the Revolutionary Communist Party and other radical groups have promised violent confrontations that put our speakers in physical danger. Our speakers have been threatened and attacked in their effort to tell the truth about Islamo Fascism. I'm writing to you today because we need your help to guarantee their safety during Islamo Fascism Awareness Week.<http://news.newsmax.com/?NUXmjZ0mrg5XDmwsGpWp3kU6kxN&https:// secure.donationreport.com/donate.html?key=FMU3L1WRY0XR> We've gotten hold of a plan by far -left radicals in California called "RESIST 'Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week!'" They claim we "plan to harass Muslim Student Associations and Women's Studies Departments, and silence anyone that questions the Bush Regime's official narrative." That's how they describe a major theme we want to get across to students during IFA Week - the oppression of women in Islam. They don't want our speakers to talk about the genital mutilation of Muslim women, the way they're stoned to death for adultery and murdered in "honor killings." These leftists call me a Nazi and say "Horowitz defends every crime that this system has ever committed and is now preparing to justify even more, and to intimidate and silence any who would question or resist this." Do you believe people like that when they say their plan is simply to "politically confront" us? I don't for a minute think their intentions are peaceful. We've learned that hardcore leftist groups like the Revolutionary Communist Party are threatening outright violence. I know from personal experience what it means when these thugs take on those they oppose. Last year members of the Revolutionary Communist Party attacked me physically at two events in California, and I was saved from harm only by the quick reactions of members of the audience. And we've seen them threatening and intimidating conservative students and speakers like Ann Coulter and Daniel Pipes in other demonstrations. I've seen the death threats that regularly appear on the email of Robert Spencer, a Freedom Center staff member who is one of the most perceptive critics of radical Islam. We need to take measures now to keep the Revolutionary Communist Party and other violent groups from harming the people who are brave enough to go into the leftist strongholds and tell the truth about Islamo-Fascism. This means that in addition to all the expenses of putting on the Week, we now have to hire security personnel to protect us during the activities and maintain a peaceful environment that will guarantee that our message is heard. Today I am asking you to contribute toward the expenses of providing security that will keep our speakers safe while they deliver their message.

Every dollar we can put toward protecting our speakers is a blow against the Left on behalf of free speech and the defense of America against the Islamic jihad.  Sincerely,  David Horowitz President & Founder P.S. The speakers we have invited to participate in our Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week have been threatened and attacked in their effort to tell the truth about Islamo Fascism. We need your immediate financial assistance of whatever you can afford <http://news.newsmax.com/?NUXmj1-mPglxkmwiGpYp3zU6DxN&https://secure.donationreport.com/ donate.html?key=FMU3L1WRY0XR>to provide security for each of our speakers.
