The posters, which read, "Hate Muslims? So Do We!!!," claim to promote Islamo-Fascism Awareness week, a week-long series of events sponsored by the student conservative group, Young America's Foundation.
The YAF openly condemn radical Islam as being evil and reprehensible. They claim these fliers are fakes, and were designed to stir hatred, rather then rationally discuss issues regarding the threat of radical Islam.
It's obvious the posters intent was malicious. The bottom of the flier, reads "Brought to you by Students for Conservativo-Fascism Awareness," and under it, the very last line reads "PS Seriously, do a Google video search for 'The Power of Nightmares'."
"The Power of Nightmares" is a BBC documentary that compares the American neo-conservative movement to the radical Islamist movement. This film attempts to make the argument that the threat of radical Islamism is in fact, a myth perpetrated by politicians world wide, particularly American Neo-Conservatives, in an attempt to unite.
George Washington University President Steven Knapp said in a statement, “There is no place for expressions of hatred on our campus.” He went on and called the posters reprehensible.
