'Islamo-fascism' posters turn heads

By Allyson Bennett | October 25, 2007

Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, advertised by controversial posters depicting a terrorist holding a gun to a figure's head as the person cowers on the ground, has aroused emotional responses among students concerned about the connotations of the event's title. The event, occurring at over 200 universities, is sponsored nationally by the Terrorism Awareness Project to "confront the two Big Lies of the political left: that George Bush created the war on terror and that Global Warming is a greater danger to Americans than the terrorist threat," according to the project's website. The event began on Monday and will culminate on Friday with a speech by Robert Spencer, director of Jihad Watch and the author of two New York Times bestsellers about Islamic jihad.
