 Professor Omid Safi, of  “contemporary Islamic thought at University of North Carolina”, is a reprehensible creature.  Professor Safi is recognized as a leader of the” progressive Muslim debate”, (which is nothing but cheap Muselprop)  and is on record of being a liar and a cheap Islamic supremacist. Safi  puffs himself up with degrees, titles, honors, and other academic paraphernalia, suggesting that these, rather than real scholarship, are what count most, but  his record shows clearly that he is a creep and a tosser of the Juan Cole variety. Fittingly, Omid Safi’s Religion News Service blog is called “What Would Muhammad Do?”  (Ironic, to say the least.)
No wait: he’s worse: Omid Safi is an extremely dishonest pseudo-academic of extraordinarily low character.  He peddles soothing nonsense to the easy marks at the Huffington Post about respecting other people, but elsewhere he shows his true colors: he has falsely claimed that Robert Spencer threatened to kill him and his family, after Spencer dared to challenge his smears with the manipulative Muslim Brotherhood neologism of “Islamophobe” and offered to come to the class where he was defaming him to engage in discussion and debate with him and his students.
Omid has a long record of  BS presentations and cheap and hateful Islamoprop, but in his latest exploits  Omid Safi’s uses images of murdered Jews in the Holocaust as Arab Palestinians, in order to smear the Jewish state of a false massacre.
Omid Safi must be a moderate.
The Tundra Tabloids exposes Omid once again, here:Â
The question we should be asking here is, what wouldn’t this Arab professor do in order to smear the state of Israel?
Just for the record: Omid also had a go at Pamela Geller  recently, because her ads bother him.
Here’s an excerpt from his blog entry:
4)Â The advertisement fundamentally and deliberately distorts the meaning of “jihad.”
The term Jihad is open to the same nuances as the term Crusade.   One may speak of a crusade against drugs, or the Crusades of Billy Graham, or the medieval Crusades.   In the context of the Qur’an, the term Jihad means a struggle that the faithful are told to undertake with their souls and beings.
Would you pay money to send your kids to a school where they are being indoctrinated with trash like this?
But wait: Â the U.S. Army is taking advice from subversives like Omid Safi:
Denying Islam’s Role in Terror
As U.S. service members risk their lives to combat violent jihadists abroad, military leaders, both uniformed and civilian, capitulate to stealth jihadists at home. By bending to Islamists’ appeals for religious sensitivity, these leaders ignore the most crucial lesson of the Fort Hood massacre: Political correctness can kill.
The U.S. Army seems to have succumbed to PC-Islamist sensitivities. It has issued a special handbook for soldiers that appears to justify jihad as “communal military defense … when [Muslims] are threatened or under attack.” In addition, U.S. servicewomen have been urged to don head scarves when interacting with Afghan locals while all soldiers are warned to “respect Islam” in order to prevent violence there.
