"les chiens aboient, la caravane passe"
Reader comment on item: Speaker Shouted Down at U.C.-Irvine

Submitted by Harrak (Canada), Feb 7, 2007 at 16:58

At least in London, Daniel Pipes was the most applauded guest.

My comment on this is that such behavior should be condemned by the university. You want to protest, fine, go to the street. But inside the university there must be challenging by questions, not by such behavior. Like Dr Pipes said, you can not sanction them, but there must be a moral stance against that.

Where is respect! which prophet are these folks following! Muhamad was known of speaking quietly and never interrupting the others. What an example of brainless Wahabi Talibanists..

"les chiens aboient, la caravane passe"

Dogs bark when the caravan passes by..
