hate speech
by
John Coursey | 10.20.2009
David Horowitz is sponsoring a tour of anti-Muslim bigot and Dutch MP, Geert Wilders, which starts here in Philadelphia, at Temple University. On Tuesday, October 20, 7pm Wilders is schedule to speak, with Horowitz providing the introduction. Wilders is notorious for his anti-Islam statements, calling for the banning of the Koran, and an end to immigration from Arab and Muslim countries. Horowitz has led a right-wing intimidation campaign against left-wing professors and students across the country. Moreover, because the Muslim Student Association along with a number of other groups protested Temple University's acceptance of Wilders as a speaker, Horowitz has been on a mission to denounce the MSA as "jihadists." The organizers of the event are calling Wilders a "European Free Speech Leader." We must protest this intolerance and the intimidation of our Arab and Muslim sisters and brothers.
