Is MSU-YAF Anti-Semitic?

YAF Watch
Michigan State University Young Americans for Freedom have established their Anti-Muslim and Anti-Hindu ideology, and believe in a narrow form of fundamental Christianity, to the exclusion of other Christians. However, now YAF seems to be taking on an Anti-Semitic Agenda.

YAF announced they are bringing Nick Griffin, leader of the British National Party, to campus.

The majority of the MSU YAF is not overtly anti-Semitic - just ignorant of the centuries old anti-Semitic philosophy fueling the European Right. One should not be surprised that a canard so carefully constructed that it brought down several European governments should hold sway over MSU’s farm-raised cognoscenti. It’s disheartening that these students, favored with the opportunities provided by a university education, should be so ignorant of world history. I suspect that their world-view is strongly shaped by a mid-West religiosity that disrespects all but the one true Christian faith. This populist fundamentalism has inspired generations of political malcontents. “History,” said Thomas Jefferson “furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes.”
