David Horowitz and his army of Campus Republicans are launching "Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week" October 22-26 on hundreds of campuses across the country. They are ominously calling this "the biggest conservative campus protest ever." Invoking '60's themes like "free speech" and combating the "oppression of women in Islam" as a cover, they plan to harass Muslim Student Associations and Women's Studies Departments, and silence anyone that questions the Bush regime's official narrative, including even those concerned about global warming!
Given the Bush regime's escalating threats toward Iran, the danger of a complicit campus environment cannot be underestimated. The College Republicans can claim to be the victim of the "academic left," but people like them run this country and dominate the world. They are the ones holding "catch a
n illegal immigrant day" at the same time as the Bush regime's ICE raids are ripping apart immigrant families. This is not just a question of campus politics and a few loud mouth bigots. If we ignore them, they will NOT go away. They have their sights set on the last remaining bastions of critical t
hinking with the aim of transforming all of society. If they can create an atmosphere at these colleges where it is okay to be openly racist and reactionary, where progressive faculty are intimidated by ridiculous claims of "left-wing academic dictatorship," and radical dissenting ideas are ruled be
yond the pale and off the table...then they have won, not only at the universities, but in their efforts to remake the social fabric of this country in a fascist way. On the other hand, if we can politically confront these college Republicans and their "Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week," expose their
real agenda, raise awareness of the growing danger of U.S. fascism and the real fascist direction that the Bush regime has been taking this country in—the endless war, the torture, the Patriot Act, the unlimited domestic spying, and the whole police state infrastructure, the Christian Fundamentali
sm that is undermining women's rights, gay peoples rights, science, and rational thought—and if we can bring forward a radical student movement that refuses to choose between Islamic Fundamentalism and the Bush Regime's Christian Fascist war on the world...then we can turn Horowitz's plan upside d
own. This week will either strengthen their side or strengthen OUR side. By bringing forward a determined and uncomprimising student movement on campuses October 22-26th we can paralyze Horowitz' ability to further target and blacklist professors and be a major part of transforming campuses into
centers of intellectual ferment, activism, and organized resistance that are so desperately needed at times like these.
