No, I have not just raised the curtain on a new Mel Brooks musical number, with the "imam," center stage, about to break out singing: "Autumn ... at Ya-le ... means Ram-adan...."
Behold Yale's Coxe Cage where in October 2008 hundreds of area Muslims, including Yale students, gathered for an Islamic service. (Story and slide show here.) I found this stunning East-meets-absorbs-West image while researching this week's column in which I make the case that Yale probably censored the Motoons in accordance with Islamic law to please potential Muslim donors who fund the extension and entrenchment of such law.
Along the way, I found a bumpy trail of disjointed factoids that, even though they don't all connect, nonetheless mark an increasing accommodation of Islam, including jihad and sharia culture, at Yale. It is a progression that is impossible to assess without also assessing Yale's disgraceful pursuit of money from the bastions of sharia -- namely, from some of the world's leading, if super-wealthy, Islamic villains, including UAE's Maktoum family, & Saudi Arabia's Talal bin Alwaleed -- which I have also tried to track.
