Chutzpah

The Muslim Students Association at UC-Davis demands that the government investigate the background of a former PLO terrorist.

Of course there's a catch:

The Muslim Student Association (MSA) at UC Davis called today on the FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to investigate and deport Walid Shoebat, a self-confessed “ex-terrorist”. Mr. Shoebat is scheduled to deliver a speech at UC Davis’ Freeborn Hall this month. The event is organized by Students for Defense of Democracies.

In a statement, the MSA at UC Davis said:

“We repudiate and unequivocally condemn terrorism, as a grave and serious crime that should be punished in the strictest means possible. We are concerned that a self-confessed ‘ex-terrorist’ is walking freely in the country, simply because he has converted to Christianity and supports this country’s policies towards Israel. We call upon the FBI and DHW to investigate the claims regarding Shoebat’s violent past and to see whether he disclosed this information when applying for his citizenship.
