Today, September 11, is Militant Islamic Awareness Day: a day to commemorate the achievements of Islamic supremacists throughout history, such as the sack of Khartoum (1885), numerous attempts to invade Europe, and of course the terrorist action that killed 3000 innocent people in 2001.
The concept of September 11 as “Militant Islam Awareness Day” comes from Islam Awareness Week, whose mockery by The Primary Source, the student newspaper at Tufts University, resulted in a
Stalinist show trial and disciplinary action from the Committee on Student Life. The show trial was conducted under the supervision of
Barbara Grossman,
a major donor to the Democratic Party and wife of the former chairman of the Democratic National Committee. While under Professor Grossman’s supervision, another CSL member proclaimed that

The fleets of flotillas, ferries, yachts, sailboats, canoes and catamarans and that have set sail for Gaza in recent years rival the size of the Spanish Armada. Yet one might argue that humanitarian flotillas are needed just a bit more urgently in Syria, where more civilians have been murdered by the Assad regime than those killed during Japan’s 2011 earthquake and tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and 9/11 combined.

There is a point at which a conflict shifts from a proxy war and into an actual war. That would be the point at which both sides are no longer just supplying weapons and intelligence, but are actually on the ground fighting each other.
Iran is all in on the Shiite side of the table. Western intelligence officials say that Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has personally sanctioned the dispatch of the experienced officers to ensure that the Assad regime, Iran’s most important regional ally, survives the threat to its survival.
