Anthropologists Pledge Not to Help Fight Islamic Terrorists

Posted by Van Helsing at October 1, 2007 7:04 AM

Anthropology, like English, is a field that shouldn't have much to do with politics, yet is hopelessly poisoned by moonbattery. In case anyone wonders whose side anthropologists are on in the struggle between Western Civilization and Islamic terrorists, the Network of Concerned Anthropologists is circulating a petition called the Pledge of Non-Participation in Counter-insurgency that proclaims:

We, the undersigned, believe that anthropologists should not engage in research and other activities that contribute to counter-insurgency operations in Iraq or in related theaters in the "war on terror."

Cultural knowledge could help our troops in combat, or help prevent another 9/11. But not if the Concerned Anthropologists have their way. You see, resisting Islamic terrorism "is at odds with the humane ideals of our discipline as well as professional standards."

Imagine if these vermin had circulated a petition during WWII, promising not to help anyone against Nazis. They very likely would have been torn to pieces by an angry mob, as they richly deserve.

On a tip from Steve.
