Cartoonish War Continues


A professor is confronted by protesters on campus.

The professor of philosophy is accused of "fanning the flames" by newspapers for posting the Danish cartoons on his office door. Student Abraham Khalafi confronted him and reported the professor treated the students "like garbage" and this:

"He said, 'I'm going to dis your religion.' And I said: 'Keep it to yourself.' That's not freedom. It's making racism."
Another demonstration is planned by Said Jaziri, the imam of the Al-Qods mosque, for tomorrow. The University ordered the cartoon removed.

American University in Egypt, Dubai, Beirut? Nope. None of those.

It's St. Mary's University, Halifax Canada. No kidding.
