Terrorists on Campus

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

No wonder Columbia University, City College of New York (CCNY), NYU, Yale and other universities have violent anti-Semitic, Marxist mobs on campus supporting terrorists.   American universities have been hiring terrorists as faculty and pandering to terrorists for decades...what result did we, or they, expect?  I informed and warned about putting terrorist professors in front of our kids years ago on, among other outlets, Fox News and through the New York Post.  Sadly, these warnings have proven very prescient.

For decades, City College of New York (CCNY) had on campus The Guillermo Morales and Assata Shakur Student Center named for Marxist, Black Liberation Army member Assata Shakur (Joanne Chesimard), murderer of NY Trooper Werner Foerster on the NJ Turnpike in 1973 and Guillermo Morales, the Puerto Rican, Marxist terrorist bomb builder who's group, the FALN, murdered my father, Frank Connor during their lunchtime bombing of Fraunces Tavern in 1975. The FALN, the most prolific terror organization in US history, blew up more than 120 bombings in the US and Puerto Rico between 1974 and 1983, murdering six, wounding hundreds and causing millions of dollars in damage.

Both Chesimard and Morales were tried, convicted, and sentenced but escaped from prison in the 1970s.   Both have been guests of the Cuban Marxist regime for decades.  Both are on the FBI’s most wanted list.

By making this disgraceful center on campus public, I successfully forced CCNY to shutter the center in 2013. Had I not gone to campus, taken photos and raised the issue in the New York Post that rat hole center would most certainly be open today.

To reinforce the point, CCNY had a student center named for a terrorist who murdered my dad…and my dad was a student at CCNY! Do you think CCNY named anything for Frank Connor?   No, Frank Connor wasn't a Marxist terrorist.

On Fox News in 2013, Megyn Kelly and I warned of Weather Underground Marxist, terrorist punk Bill Ayers, who has a degree from Columbia University, being on the faculty of the University of Illinois at Chicago.  Ayers was the leader of the notorious Weather Underground who declared war on the United States.  Their terror acts included bombing the United States State Department only four days after the Fraunces bombing and United States Capitol in 1971 and the Pentagon in 1972. 

In April 2013, Gretchen Carlson and I warned about Ayer’s Weather Underground comrade Kathy Boudin's hiring at Columbia; allowing a terrorist to "mold people's minds."  Look how Columbia has turned out.

These are the radicals in and out of academia I've been fighting for decades; since even before the Clintons/Eric Holder and then Obama/Biden gave clemency to the FALN terrorists who murdered my father for politics and ideology.

Actions (and as Obama declared, elections) have consequences.  Hiring terrorists as teachers breeds new terrorists. We are now seeing the rotten fruit of that unholy alliance between Marxists, anti-Semites and academia.

As I said to Megyn Kelly, when you spend money on food you want to know what you are getting; the ingredients in the package. When you spend $70,000 a year on your child for college, shouldn't you also know what comes in that package?
