The fraudulent hippy, who many say erroneously claims to be part Native American, says the janitors killed in the collapse of the World Trade Center had it coming because they were part of America’s “mighty engine of profit.” They had it coming, according to the University of Colorado at Boulder chairman of ethnic studies, because of the many crimes America has committed against various peoples, including what he says were the 500,000 Iraqi children America killed after the Gulf War and the 100,000 poor souls we killed, so he says, on the Highway of Death, which is the highway between Kuwait City and Basra upon which we caught a retreating Iraqi army.

Of course, Ward Churchill offers no evidence in support of his claims, but that’s to be expected from a propagandist whose seditious words are now being used by terrorists to recruit new car-bomb-driving lackeys aimed at Iraqi children. But such troubling facts are lost upon hate mongers like Professor Churchill. He can’t point to these alleged 500,000 graves because they don’t exist, and if they did exist, it would have been the genocidal Saddam, Churchill’s hero, that killed them. And I stood in the middle of the Highway of Death shortly after the fact. There were, at most, 1,500 dead Iraqi soldiers in that convoy, all of whom got what was due them. I wish the number had been 100,000, but no such luck. I crack up when Churchill complains they were killed by “hyper-lethal types of ordnance.” What does he want us to use? Ordnance that merely maims?

Sure, Churchill’s words are hate speech made possible by our tax dollars paying his salary. However, what sham of a Boulder County court run by an activist judge will fault him for hate speech? And forget University President Elizabeth Hoffman or the complicit Board of Regents holding him accountable. Merchants of leftist hate are welcome on the Boulder campus and Hoffman and her vile ilk are willing, even eager shills for wannabe despots like Churchill.

As someone who has been a student of terrorism since the 1970s, who has worked in various counterterrorism billets from the tactical to the strategic to the instructional, I know all too well how the words of bloodthirsty terrorist enablers like Churchill can be used to indoctrinate young, impressionable minds, such as those of his hapless students and those of soon-to-be terrorists. His words are powerful because they fall upon ears attached to heads that have never been trained in the recognition and defense of propaganda and indoctrination, the latter of which was originally called brainwashing, a term coined after the first American POWs were repatriated from North Korea and China in 1953. Churchill admitted during a recent radio interview that he tries to influence his students, as opposed to instruct them. One of his students said she likes how her professor gives them numbers and other facts to back up his arguments. This mindless dolt of a future college grad obviously just accepts what she is told by Churchill without bothering to check what he claims to be true. Yeah, she’ll go far.

The fact of the matter is that Ward Churchill is aiding and abetting the enemy with his words of support and encouragement for their genocidal goals, and his words that tell of his hope for many more innocent Americans to die.

With his First Amendment right to speak these words must come responsibility and accountability.

Charge him under whatever laws we can (the USA Patriot Act?) for his aiding and abetting the enemy, sedition, treason or what have you. When found guilty, sentence him to stand on Haifa Street in Baghdad wrapped in an American flag.

One of the young men influenced by his words will be by shortly.
