MSU is Radical Jihadism

MSU and these "plotters" represent a radical Jihadist Union which thretens the safety of UCI and undermines UCI's values as an institution of integrative thoughts. Tolerance is extremely important in an academic environment, and if these people are here to learn, they need to be tolerant of opinions and open their minds to conflicting opinions. Protest is OK and sometimes necessary, but only if it remains respectful and peaceful. MSU seems to advocate a certain jihadist "struggle" to disrupt anything "Zionistic". The Jews on campus do not seem to demonstrate any sort of animosity towards the MSU like the MSU expressed during Oren's speech. If the Administration fails to recognize and rebuke the kniving, dishonest, and anti-Semitic nature of a student organization, then the California University system needs to check its subdivisions like UCI. It is the University's responsibility to protect its students, and allowing a radical group whose goal is to disrupt peaceful, educated representations (such as Oren's speech) to disrespectuflly and hatefully protest (a type of protest than can potentially turn violent), is putting the entire school and its students at danger. UCI cannot stand idly by and allow people with ideologies similar to radical Islamist terrorist organizations to compromise the safety, security, and value of the institution.
