Misguided American College Students Reveal How They Are Being Educated

American college students dress up in traditional costumes to present their arguments for why they are being oppressed by Israel.

[From article]
Students demanding DePaul University divest from Israel are calling their campaign “a feminist issue” and “a queer issue
[. . .]
“Through its mutual funds, DePaul University invests our tuition money in corporations that manufacture weapons and provide surveillance technology to the Israeli government,” the petition claims.
The petition highlights companies like Hewlett-Packard, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Caterpillar, claiming they profit from Israel’s alleged “violation of the human rights of Palestinians, African migrants, and other minorities.”
The petition also accuses Israel of violating “people's rights to life, movement, healthcare, education, and freedom.”

“If this organization was really concerned with women's and LGBT welfare, they’d turn their attention to Gaza where Hamas stones women accused of adultery or to the West Bank under the Palestinian Authority where honor killing girls for ‘dishonoring their family’ is acceptable,” [Mark Silverman] continued.
Brendan Newell, chair of the DePaul Young Americans for Freedom chapter, told Campus Reform that the movement's momentum on campus has already "died out."

The campaign to divest from israel is being led by DePaul Divests.
Feminist Front posted a video supporting the campaign on Jan. 21.
The students in the video claim that Israeli "methods of occupation historically target women, through violence, kidnapping, and rape" and that "Israeli forces target queer folks with blackmail."

Man Wearing Burqa Suspect in Bank Robberies

[From article]
The man police say is behind the robberies has worn a black burqa — a full-body covering worn by some Muslim women — during the heists
[. . .]
“What are you supposed to do, what are you supposed to say?” she said. ”’Take that off’? ‘Let me see what’s underneath that burqa’?'”
Police have a similar problem — striking a delicate balance between nabbing the crook while not profiling Muslims who wear burqas in banks.

The Costume Party


A couple was invited to a swanky costume party. The Mrs. got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the party alone.
He being a devoted husband protested, but she argued and said she was going to take some aspirin and go to bed and there was no need for his good time being spoiled by not going.
So he took his costume and away he went. The wife, after sleeping soundly for about an hour, awakened without pain and, as it was still early, decided to go the party.
Since her husband did not know what her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her husband to see how he acted when she was not with him.
She joined the party and soon spotted her husband cavorting around on the dance floor, dancing with every nice woman he could, and copping a little feel here and a little kiss there.
His wife sidled up to him and being a rather seductive babe herself, he left his current partner high and dry and devoted his time to the new babe that had just arrived. She let him go as far as he wished ,naturally, since he was her husband.
Finally, he whispered a little proposition in her ear and she agreed.
So off they went to one of the cars and had a quickie.
Just before unmasking at midnight, she slipped away, went home, put the costume away and got into bed, wondering what kind of explanation he would make for his behavior.
She was sitting up reading when he came in, and she asked what kind of a time he had. He said: "Oh, the same old thing. You know I never have a good time when you're not there."
- "Did you dance much ?"
- "I'll tell you, I never even danced one dance. When I got there, I met Pete, Bill Brown and some other guys, so we went into the den and played poker all evening. But you're not going to believe what happened to the guy I loaned my costume to...."
