Damage control at Connecticut College

Posted by Robert on April 24, 2006 10:45 AM

A few weeks ago [1] I spoke at Connecticut College in New London, Connecticut. In my talk I did what I always do: told the truth about how the global mujahedin use core elements of Islamic theology and law to justify what they're doing.

Evidently I created a stir on campus, and some people are attempting to do a little damage control -- no doubt by spreading the deception and half-truths thick enough to befuddle those who may have found my presentation convincing. A Jihad Watch reader has sent me this message from the school's daily events bulletin:

A Short Talk and FREE FOOD: Confused about what Robert Spencer had to say. Don't know about Political Islam or Fudamentalism? Come join us for a talk on "East v. West: Fundamentalists' Ideological Differences" in the Knowlton Common room on Monday, April 24th at 5pm. Contact Tista Nayak at x3999 for more info--food will be catered by Saeed's.

I'm sorry I can't make that. I am sure the food from Saeed's will be delicious. If any Jihad Watchers can make it, please fill us in.
