Last week the Muslim Student Association at California State University, Long Beach sponsored a speech by Amir-Abdel Malik-Ali.

LGF featured video clips of Malik-Ali’s anti-American and antisemitic speech at UC Irvine in 2005.

In last week’s speech at CSULB he explicitly supported terrorism and suicide bombing—and clearly, by inviting this hate-spewing lunatic, so does the Muslim Student Association: Beach Hillel protests MSA speaker. (Hat tip: Terp Mole.)

Ali’s speech, titled “Resisting Occupation by Any Means Necessary,” hit the event’s purpose “right on the nose,” according to Naadiya Patel, events coordinator and MSA member. Ali, who is from the Masjid Al-Islam in Oakland, spoke to students outside the University Bookstore at the Speaker’s Platform about the Palestinian people’s plight, controlled media, foreign policy and American consciousness. …

Ali contrasted the weapons available to Israel and Palestine and explained to students what he meant “by any means necessary.”

“By any means necessary? Yes, by any means necessary. We’ll do it peacefully if we have to; we’ll fight if we have to; we’ll strap bombs if we have to. We will. Why? Because we are fighting against occupation and we don’t have the weapons that they have.”

He said while detractors may call Thursday’s speaking, “hate speech,” he said it is not.

“We are teaching love, we’re not teaching hate,” Ali said, “The only hate we’re teaching is to hate the imperialism, hate oppression, hate racism. Hate any type of oppression that you see, no matter what color the oppressor is.” …

“I don’t see the point of bringing a speaker to campus who is going to incite hate speech and promote terrorism and suicide bombing,” said Jordan Antonoft, a silent protester and member of Beach Hillel. “By any means necessary alludes to the idea of strapping bombs onto 15 year olds and sending them to kill innocent people, and this is what [Ali] is up there promoting on a college campus. I don’t see any benefit coming out of [Ali’s] speaking.”
