U. of Arizona instructor: U.S. military “greater threat” than the Islamic State

Nov 4, 2014 8:57 am By Robert Spencer

Musa al-GharbiHow corrupt and compromised is American academia today? This corrupt and compromised. Musa al-Gharbi is not singular: there are professors all over the country who say essentially the same things. Most of the time it goes unnoticed, as those who are listening to them take it for granted that these are the kinds of things university professors say. There are very few, if any, institutions of higher learning today. There are mostly just centers for Leftist, anti-American, anti-Western, anti-Judeo/Christian indoctrination.

“University Instructor: U.S. Troops Worse than the Islamic State,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, November 3, 2014:

A University of Arizona instructor is facing criticism for claiming that the U.S. military is “a greater threat” than the Islamic State (IS) and for portraying American soldiers as anti-Muslim rapists who commit crimes on par with—or even worse than—IS itself.

University of Arizona instructor Musa al-Gharbi—who also serves as an academic affiliate at the university’s Southwest Initiative for the Study of Middle East Conflicts (SISMEC)—drew the controversial comparison between IS (also known as ISIL or ISIS) and U.S. soldiers in a recent column arguing that America’s moral outrage at IS’s crimes is hypocritical.

Al-Gharbi’s comments, published in the online publication TruthOut and several other places, attracted outrage from experts who said that taxpayer funds should not be supplementing a university that encourages such dialogue about current events.

“It would not be a stretch to say that the United States is actually a greater threat to peace and stability in the region than ISIS—not least because U.S. policies in Iraq, Libya, and Syria have largely paved the way for ISIS’s emergence as a major regional actor,” al-Gharbi wrote in an October column entitled, “How Much Moral High Ground Does the U.S. Have Over ISIS?”

Al-Gharbi goes on to argue that U.S. soldiers commit atrocities, including rape, that are on a level with the crimes committed by IS’s radical militants.

“Many of the same behaviors condemned by the Obama administration and used to justify its most recent campaign into Iraq and Syria are commonly perpetrated by U.S. troops and are ubiquitous in the broader American society,” al-Gharbi wrote.

U.S. soldiers and contractors have “repeatedly used rape as a weapon of war” and have committed crimes similar to those perpetrated by IS militants, al-Gharbi maintains in the article.

“The initial driver of U.S. involvement was the outrage over ISIS’ capture of thousands of Yazidi women and the sexual violence subsequently exercised against them—horrors which provided moral credence to the war against ISIS in much the same way that the 2001 U.S. war against the Taliban was justified in part by highlighting the plight of Afghan women living under their rule,” he wrote.

“However, over the course of that war, and the subsequent 2003 war in Iraq, U.S. soldiers and contractors repeatedly used rape as a weapon of war, both against prisoners and the local civilian population,” al-Gharbi writes. “But perhaps more disturbing than the crimes committed by U.S. personnel against Iraqis and Afghans were the atrocities committed by servicemen against their fellow soldiers.”

Instances of beheadings and even cannibalism by IS militants also are reminiscent of how U.S. soldiers “torture their enemies,” according to al-Gharbi.

“U.S. soldiers and contractors have and continue to torture their enemies, often taking obscene photos to brag about and reminisce upon their acts,” al-Gharbi writes.

He also goes on to claim that the U.S. military has been “heavily infiltrated by white-supremacists, neo-Nazis, and other hate groups.”…

        Teachers are free to have opinions, but those opinions must have some INTELLECTUAL RIGOR behind them.

        Musa al-Gharbi is spouting nothing more than unsubstantiated, one-sided messages…in other words, PROPAGANDA.

        Musa al-Gharbi would be UNABLE to defend these allegations of American immorality. Those who break the rules of engagement are PUNISHED by courts martial.

        Musa al-Gharbi’s allegations are rubbish. For lack of intellectual rigor, Musa al-Gharbi should lose his position…after he is challenged and humiliated in debate!

        Musa al-Gharbi is no more than an Islamic McCarthy.

          You can be forgiven for the distasteful comparison to McCarthy. After all, it’s only been about twenty years since the Venona documents were released exposing the depth of Soviet influence and espionage at State, Treasury and various other agencies. Not that the left has ever offered anything resembling a mea culpa. The term McCarthyism is still way to valuable to them.

        I think these types of remarks could be used as a tool against CAIR – as to say – look what your guys are saying against the US military – yet you don’t petition to stop them from speaking at public engagements. In fact you invite them to speak at yours!

        ::

        Think of it as the – Shari’a-Marxist-conspiracy theory.

        Marxism doesn’t care about human rights and neither does Shari’a – go down the list of similarities – the harsh punishments – the Utopian vision – where human life, dignity and individual freedoms are viewed as secondary – to it. And both seek world domination – though uniformity and Borg-like compliance.

        On one side the hammer and sickle – to represent the single hard working male hammering away – and on the other the multiple women in black burqas bouncing a happy babies – to show the strength of the commune family – under the crescent.

        Here is a clip from a similar article – such as the one above which blames the US for atrocities being done in the name of Islam – here is one where America is blamed for atrocities under communism – the Khmer Rouge no less..

        GENOCIDE: THE COMMUNIST AND ISLAMIC VERSIONS

        ..The New York Times ran a story blaming America, not communism, for the mass murder.

        The Khmer Rouge was the communist version of ISIS in Iraq.

        In the original story on the Times website, the rise to power of the Khmer Rouge and its brutality was framed in terms of being provoked by the United States. The Times story said, “The covert carpet-bombing of eastern Cambodia from 1965 to 1973 is seen by historians as a major factor in the destabilization of Cambodia in the years before the Khmer Rouge came to power.”

        I finally found the original at a very interesting website called http://www.newsdiffs.org that “watches different versions of highly-placed articles on online news sites,” starting with The New York Times.

        It appears, in this case, that somebody at the Times realized that blaming the U.S. for the crimes of communism didn’t make a lot of sense, and that it was downright offensive. After all, 58,000 Americans died to prevent communist takeovers of Vietnam and Cambodia.Barbwire.com

        Death Penalty for Converting to Another Faith – The percentage that believe this is 67.60% based on ten Muslim majority countries in the Middle East, South Asia and North Africa. Based on the Muslim population of those countries, that results in 353 million people (at a minimum) believing in the death penalty for leaving Islam.

        My hope is these savages overplay their hand and really wake the world up. Sure this most likely means a nuke going off in a major city, but that is most likely what it will take to wake the infidel world up enough. It took Hitler invading Europe to wake the west up for instance. Humans are like that we don’t react until our feet are in the fire much of the time. It’s human nature having normalcy bias and not wanting to face unpleasant realities. Let’s hope as the islamic state continues to rampage it leads more prominent people to ask questions about islam and do some research.

      Same way the communists did it. They learn from the best. The west has no defense or counter to many tactics involving assymetrical warfare and many of our enemies know this. I could point out countless weaknesses but I don’t see the point, I’m sure I’m not the only one and people in the intel community can see some of them but due to morons in the leadership positions more concerned about their own career and being politicians and not commanders they are neutralized. The chain of command itself is a vulnerable weapon that you can exploit if you know the right points to attack it and or c0-opt or neutralize it.

      Nov 5, 2014 at 7:43 pm

      A nice dream, what would be the more likely thing to happen is you and your room full of combat vets would be hearing a seminar from a muslim brotherhood member who infiltrated the government (since infiltrating the government is so easy even cavemen do it) and you would be being taught about how islam is peaceful and how muhammad was a great and noble figure in history. Afterwards you would have to fill out work books on how diversity is good, and then be taught how Amish people are the real threat.

      This is evidenced by the FBI removing all reference to islam and terrorism in their training manuals. The war on an enemy tactic called the war on terror is a joke of epic proportions. We play whack a mole with savages while ignoring the ideology that creates jihadists all to appease the political correct gods. The U.S has no defense against weaponized political correctness any tactic that is similar to stealth jihad, and many tactics involving assymetrical warfare. I could name 100 ways I could wage war on the government if I were them successfully and point out numerous weaknesses inherent in the structure of western governments but what’s the point.

    ” U.S. policies in Iraq, Libya, and Syria have largely paved the way for ISIS’s emergence as a major regional actor,”

    Well, so far so good. I am very, very sad to have to admit that indeed, the US government sponsored movements resulting in the elimination of organized governments in Iraq, Libya, and Syria. The resulting anarchy did indeed allow the expansion of ISIS. I might add that it was deliberate US policy in Iran that resulted in the present oppressive, theocratic Iranian regime.

    As far as the accusations against US troops of rape and murder: this is simply a Muslim projection of what they would do onto others. The malevolent policies came from the top: not from the morality and actions of US troops, who are probably the very best part of US society at the moment.

    My position is that if Muslims kill Muslims on their own, the US has no call to get involved. However, when the US takes deliberate actions that allow Muslims to kill other Muslims, I do feel responsibility. A specific example is the US toppling the Iraqi government, and then systematically dismantling the entire structure of social controls that had been in place. This allowed the murderous violence between Sunnis and Shiites which had been previously forcibly suppressed by the Iraqi army and police.

    Furthermore, the US government supported the toppling of its Egyptian ally, Hosni Mubarak, and his replacement by Muslim Brotherhood candidate Morsi. It was only the purest of luck, and the good sense of the Egyptian military acting against direct US threats, that pulled Egypt back from a Muslim Brotherhood, theocratic government.

    In light of these facts, it is hard to argue against the assertion that the US did indeed pave the way for the expansion of ISIS>

        Noam Chomsky infamously sneered at the idea that America was an innocent victim on 9/11, an described the US as a “world champion terrorist state” after 9/11.

        He said that 9/11 was “all to the good” because it made Americans think about “what the US government does in the world”.

        He also refers to ‘Palestinian’ suicide bombers as “freedom fighters”, and lauded Saddam Hussein paying their families.

        There is, of course, much more.

      “So RonaldB in your view it’s okay to sit around and watch innocent people become beheaded, raped, sold off, tortured, mass murdered so long as it’s Muslim on Muslim violence?”

      Yes. I do not support intervention in the affairs of Muslim countries unless it serves our interests. Unfortunately, the US was very involved in destroying the governments of Iraq, Libya, and much of Syria, so we have responsibility for the spread of ISIS. And by the way, the graphic scenes you describe, especially women sold into slavery, are the actions of Muslims against non-Muslims, which is a different ball of wax.

      “And I’m sure you know this but Libya and Iraq weren’t exactly better under their genocidal dictators.”

      I disagree. The Iraqis were better off under Saddam Hussein, the Libyans were better off under Qaddafi, and the Egyptians were better off under Mubarak than under Morsi. A Muslim country needs strong mechanisms of social control, as Islam permits individual violence in religious matters, and all matters are religious to a Muslim.

      The US in Iraq not only deposed Hussein, which was not fatal. However, the US administration systematically dismantled the army, the police, and the civil service in Iraq. There were absolutely no mechanisms by which the Iraqi society could suppress Muslim violence against Muslims and non-Muslims. Iraq was indeed better off under Hussein than under the US occupation.

      I do NOT support US actions directly against ISIS, except to support Kurdish or Syrian government forces to hold or shrink ISIS. I’m being a bit inconsistent here, but the US did lay the foundation for ISIS.

      ISIS itself, if the US were not mucking around destabilizing the governments in the area, would not be much of a threat. The ideology of Islam, and in particular, the Muslims in civilized countries who follow Islam, are a great threat. They are already inside our borders. Every Muslim who joins ISIS from the West, or who sympathizes with it, is a deadly threat inside Western borders.

      The US is far better off not getting involved in Muslim affairs, but keeping Muslims in Muslim countries.

    “Musa al-Gharbi is not singular: there are professors all over the country who say essentially the same things. ”

    Well, sure; but we must parse the Academic corruption into a taxonomy:

    1) Radical Leftist professors (and students), who hold the same dim view of their own West (and if American, of their own America) as does Prof. al-Gharbi but — unless they are of that tiny minority of extremist Leftist Revolutionaries — not with an eye lucidly and consciously to overthrow and destroy the West, but less coherently and with supremely juvenile irresponsibility merely to castigate and denigrate the West from whose teats they otherwise parasitically suck all day long.

    2) PC MC professors (and students), less radical than their colleagues in #1, and therefore more congenially parasitic upon the West they otherwise glibly disparage in the pursuit of their irrationally excessive distortion of that cardinal Western virtue, Self-Criticism.

    3) Muslim professors — who are our enemy in a war they and their co-religionists of the Umma are waging against us — either violently or by stealth (the latter of which they manage to succeed in continuing, largely because of Western gullibility, as manifested in a thousand ways, including hiring professors like Musa al-Gharbi, who rather should be immediately arrested, detained, interrogated, then deported to the Dar-al-Islam (any part of it will do — a jungle in Indonesia, a desert waste in Sudan, a casbah in Morocco…).

      Don’t give the geldings in the district of criminals any ideas. Last I heard the FBI or the NSA were going to hire him to teach islam and diversity to their new agents and senior management. After we in the 20th and 21th century wage a kinder gentler war, hen ce why we can’t win one and are still fighting and losing to the Taliban 13 years later, and after we leave Afghanistan the Taliban will retake the country.

        I understand what your saying, but the paste up is only part of what the mussie scum is trying to contradict. Note Article IV in particular.
        Code of Conduct: (excerpt from Warrior Culture of the U.S. Marines, copyright 2001 Marion F. Sturkey)

        During the Korean War in the early 1950s, the Chinese Army and North Korean Army captured some American military men. These American prisoners then faced a deadly new enemy, the Eastern World’s POW environment.

        For the American prisoners, brutal torture, random genocide, lack of food, absence of medical aid, and subhuman treatment became a daily way of life. Many of the Americans found that their training had not prepared them for this new battlefield.

        After the war the American armed forces jointly developed a Code of Conduct. The President of the United States approved this written code in 1955. The six articles of the code create a comprehensive guide for all American military forces in time of war, and in time of peace. The articles of the code embrace (1) general statements of dedication to the United States and to the cause of freedom, (2) conduct on the battlefield, and (3) conduct as a prisoner of war.

        The new Code of Conduct is not a part of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Instead, the Code of Conduct is a personal conduct mandate for members of the American armed forces throughout the world.

        Article I: I am an American, fighting in the armed forces which guard( my country and our way of life.) I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

        Article II: I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command I will never surrender the members of my command while they still have the means to resist.

        Article III: If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

        Article IV: If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information nor take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way.

        Article V: When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, service, number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.

        Article VI: I will never forget that I am an American, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

    How corrupt and compromised is American academia today?

    Wow, that’s a deep deep question, and a very very important one.

    Answer: as corrupt and as compromised as possible when the Professoriat has too much time on their hands, easy work governed by no standards, no competition, taxpayer dollars, and a guaranteed job for life. That’s how corrupt and compromised the professors are. Which is a lot, as in maxed out.

    So of course they’re pro-Moslem.

    These traitors should be exiled to welcoming islamic institutions of higher learning where they can project to their hearts’ content, spew their vile propaganda, and feed the paranoia and mental decay inculcated in the pathetic minds of muslim university students, compliments of islam.

    WHY are our tax dollars being used to FINANCE these insidious muslim traitors? It’s fine to expose college students to a variety of political ideas and opinions; it is a crime and an outrage to allow foreign ‘professors’ to teach anti-American propaganda to American students as factual truth. It simply amazes me that muslim and left-wing, Marxist professors get away with this crap at taxpayer expense.

      Why? It’s simple we have no defense against weaponized political correctness and stealth jihad. The muslims are following the same playbook the communists used against us successfully. Our greatest strength our military and intel gathering capabilites are neutralized by political correctness, and our greatest weakness an enemy employing tactics that doesn’t involve tanks and bombers is used that much more effectively against us due in large part to political correctness among other things. Human nature plays a factor in it as well.

    The more likely scenario is the FBI will hire him to teach their new agents about islam and diversity, or the islamic state department under the fearless horseface will make him head of intelligence, if they didn’t already offer the position to the head of the islamic state itself. I’m only a nasty civilian I am not in the loop in the workings of our esteemed government selling us out to money changers and globalists. Though I more or less know how it all works.

    U. of Arizona instructor: U.S. military “greater threat” than the Islamic State
    …………………………

    I wondered initially if this was suicidal Western self-hatred, but it is not—instead, it is grotesque false Muslim tu quoque.

    Here’s more repulsive Muslim apologia from Musa Al-Gharbi in the New Turkey:

    “There are groups more depraved than ISIL”

    Does the West care about ISIL’s specific crimes or is it mostly outraged that Muslims are committing them?

    http://thenewturkey.org/there-are-groups-more-depraved-than-isil/new-region/10932

    By the way, the only “groups” he comes up with are a single one—the Mexican drug cartels.

    And here’s his disgusting “Letter to My Fellow Americans”, where he defends his vicious anti-American bullsh*t:

    http://www.truth-out.org/speakout/item/27252-an-open-letter-to-my-fellow-americans

    In it, he says that the US should ignore the Islamic State’s sexual slavery and genocide, and instead be “resolving problems like sexual violence and religious persecution in our own societies and institutions”—which is pretty much like saying that America should have ignored the Holocaust during WWII because we still had a problem at home with country clubs that would not accept Jewish members.

    Actually, it is far worse than that—because no doubt the “religious persecution” he is referring to is our resisting the imposition of Shari’ah law here.

    He also claims that our lack of absolute moral perfection “undermines America’s moral credibility on the world stage”.

    Actually, this is crap—while a few may object to domestic hypocrisies—no nation or individual is entirely free of them—most of our enemies, including the Islam State, oppose us on *entirely different grounds*.

    The fact is that the ideals of the sanguinary Islamic State—of all pious Muslim states—could not be more different than ours.

    He also pretends to be angered over the policies regarding sexual violence in the US armed forces—this *is* a serious concern, but might be more plausible on his part if he were not bringing it up in order to distract attention from ISIS’s reinstatement of *sexual slavery*.

    He is also *enraged* that the Washington Beacon and FOX News dared mention that he is Muslim—he laughably says, “as though my religion were in any way relevant to the matter at hand”—as if it could not, when he is defending the bloody Islamic State and comparing it favorably against US military and society.

    Then—slyly—he says “my work consistently promotes the right of self-determination for all peoples”. Presumably this also includes the “right” of Muslims to enslave Infidels and commit genocide.

    Then, predictably, he smears anyone who has any problem with this as an “Islamophobe”. *Ugh*.

    And yet more obfuscation regarding the foul Islamic State:

    “Don’t think of the ‘Islamic State’ in religious terms”

    http://mepc.org/articles-commentary/commentary/dont-think-islamic-state-religious-terms

    That he is teaching at an American university is appalling.

    What do you expect when you hire a Muslim radical to teach at a university. Islamic university wolves distort the truth to young students trying to create sympathy for islamofacists. The University should fire him NOW for his lies and distortion of the basic truths about America.
