Many readers of our wonderful web properties may not realize that last week was Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week. Former Senator Richard Santorum was on campus to speak about the dangers of Islamo-Fascism and to promote the week of awareness. However, I regret to write that the dear former Senator’s efforts fell far short in terms of campus penetration. I feel it is my duty to continue to promote the message of Rick Santorum. That is why I am declaring next week, “Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week” Awareness Week. During the week, I will promote the idea that last week was, in fact, Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week. People need to know that a message was being put out during that time.

Last week’s Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week was meant to warn Temple students and young people from the surrounding communities about the dangers of getting caught up in Islamo-Fascism. These days, it is easier than ever. I think everyone has at least one acquaintance that is mixed up in the Islamo-Fascism, and peer pressure is a powerful tool of recruitment. During my undergraduate college days at Tulane University, I found myself at a number of parties where my friends began involving themselves in Islamo-Fascism. They would ask me if I was interested, but I would decline. It was not always easy. I was tempted, but I would always remember the slogan from the videos Mother had me watch as a child: reject Islamo-Fascism, it’s not a euphemism.
