said what's the point to this stuff......but, could be yet another US university is accepting of ISIS.

There is much more but just a sample....


Laura put the murderous ISIS army's credentials front-and-center.
'They are terrorists,' she told Bley, 'but, like, we're trying to help them. We're trying to, like, educate them and give them funding so that they don't have to be impoverished and get involved in acts of violence.'
'You should create jobs and help promote education in the Islamic State,' she added later, 'because that's what helps reduce terrorism.'
That was a subtle jab at U.S. State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf, who said last month on MSNBC that 'we cannot kill our way out of this war' with ISIS.'
The Obama administration, Harf said, should instead 'go after the root causes that lead people to join these groups' - including 'lack of opportunity for jobs.'
At one point Laura expanded her fictional club's mandate to include providing paper and pencils to the 'widows and orphans' of dead ISIS jihadis.


Another part of her pitch to college officials was a mission that included providing flashlights to ISIS fighters and their families.
'A lot of the facilities have been destroyed' in Iraq and Syria, she said, 'so there is not a lot of electricity and power.'
'A lot of the fighters, they can't see at night, you know?' she continued. 'So, like, people are attacking them and they can't see at night. And because they are so poor, like, they don't have night vision and stuff.'
Bley explored the idea, speculating about the 'thousands of dollars' it might cost to send 'bulk shipments' of flashlights to the Middle East, 'like the ones at Costco and stuff.'


The only objection Laura encountered was related to the group's proposed name.
'The only thing, as far as the name [goes],' she heard from Frederique Frage, the university's associate director of international and multicultural programs, is that 'technically our country is at war with ISIS'.
Frage was quick to add: 'I am not saying that – at all – ISIS represents Islam.'
But students might have 'some reservation' supporting a group engaged in a 'humanitarian effort' aimed at the terror group, she said. 'It's just unfortunate.'
Another multicultural program administrator, Daisy Santiago, chimed in that Laura should rename her group 'Students in Support of the Middle East' – 'as opposed to having the 'ISIS' [name].'
