Reader comment on item: An Inadvertent Endorsement of Campus Watch [at Georgia Tech]
Submitted by Harrak (Canada), Apr 17, 2006 at 13:45
I never ever thought -until some five years ago- that studying in America will be like studying in Cuba or Saudi Arabia...In Cuba you can not talk about one thing in the universities: communism...In Saudi Arabia you can not talk about monarchy. In America, even worse, there are many things you can not talk about, many things.." I think by making Americans live the same goverment pressures as they lived in under Arabic dictatorships, the 9/11 terrorists had won by acheiving that goal"
