Ward Churchill praises Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols
A former student of Churchill's says she heard him justify the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing during a class lecture. From WorldNetDaily.com.
Now that sentence is very, very interesting, isn't it? It continues in the next sentence:
Kimberley Hickel said the professor "actually stood in front of our class and said how the FBI got what they deserved. It was awful."
Let's just ponder all of that for a bit.
And by extension, since Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were aware that their own act would coincide closely with the anniversaries of Waco and Oklahoma City, and given that most of the victims were white kids who had fairly well-to-do parents who obviously participated in the whole "technocratic" portion of American society, I suppose that Ward Churchill would argue that the 13 innocent victims at Columbine High School (20 mins. from where I live) also deserved to die. But then again, maybe not, because he'd have to get around the fact that the 2 Columbine killers were viciously white supremacist, and deliberately tried to plan their actions to honor Hitler's birthday. He'd have a conundrum there, wouldn't he? Neo-Nazis shooting little Eichmanns...
