I found this over at Goomba News Network.A college liberal defecates straight out of his mouth in a monumental eruption of cliche liberal tard speech. This is in response to a group of students at the University of Illinois chanting "USA! USA!" during a moment of silence for 9/11 at an Illinois football game.
Read and weep.
The vast majority of 9/11 observances in this country cannot be seen as politically neutral events. Implicit in their nature are the notions that lives lost at the World Trade Center are more valuable than lives lost in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and elsewhere; that the motives of the 9/11 attackers had nothing to do with genuine grievances in the Islamic world regarding American imperialism; and that the U.S. has been justified in the subsequent killing of hundreds of thousands in so-called retaliation.
The observance at Saturday’s football game was no different. A moment of silence was followed by a military airplane flyover; in between, Block-I students chanted “USA, USA.” This was neither patriotism nor remembrance in any justifiable sense, but politicization, militarism, propaganda and bellicosity. The University is a public institution that encompasses the political views of all, not just the most (falsely) “patriotic.” Athletic planners should cease such exploitation for political purposes. They might at least consider how most Muslim students, American or otherwise, would respond to this nativist display; or better, Muslims and others that live their lives under the threat of our planes, drones and soldiers.
The overwhelmingly white, privileged, Block-I students should be ashamed of their obnoxious, fake-macho, chicken-hawk chant, while poverty-drafted members of their cohort fight and die in illegal and immoral wars for the control of oil. University administrators need to eliminate from all events such “patriotic” observances, which in this country cannot be separated from implicit justifications for state-sponsored killing.

Well Hack, since I am doing some blog jog catch up...I feel I must comment on this for anyone who would bother to read my two cents worth.
ReplyDeleteFirst, after nearly squirting blood from my tear ducts, let me say I feel more than qualified to offer a response to this letter by a so-called educated individual.
The author says "implicit in their nature"...well who the heck implied this? Him? those chanting? Probably NOBODY other than the obviously pissed off author of a one sided and narrowly viewed rant. Chanting "USA" implies nothing other than love and excitement for one's country! And why shouldn't we be excited for it? America is AWESOME...in fact I have affectionately named one of my children 'America'. I get asked all the time 'how do you spell that'....blink blink blink REALLY?
And American Imperialism? Excuse me, but Islamic grievances have been ill-contrived and overblown for much longer than America has been a country. Anybody with even a slight grasp on world history can see this. Islamic whack-o sorts have been jihadding and screaming allahu akbar way before oil was discovered! Now they just use oil as a means to fund the spread of their evil cult while crying foul if anyone tries to touch or take control of their cash cow.
Nativist display? Athletic planners should consider how most Muslim students would respond?
If you are an American student at an American educational institution's football game, the proper response is probably a "hell yeah I am in the greatest nation on the face of the earth watching a game with a bunch of my fellow countryman and I am damn thankful to be alive....USA USA USA!" any other response is out of place...my suggestion would be "take the whiny table cloth wearing whine session home to allah where it belongs".
"Implicit justifications for state sponsored killings"? Again, who is making the implications? it is apparent that only the author of this one sided rant against all things American is the one implying and ascribing value to the camaraderie and fan spirit of the aforementioned football spectators.
