Other special weeks worth having...

Lorrie Goldstein suggests that Universities add a few other weeks to their calendars....

Darfur Destruction Week: An examination of the slaughter in Sudan, where hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children have been forced from their homes, starved, tortured, raped and murdered in the world's worst ongoing human rights disaster and old, familiar pastime -- Muslims killing other Muslims.
---

Iranian Intelligence Week: An exploration of the comedic stylings of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who unforgettably told a Columbia University audience in 2007 that Iran has no gays or lesbians. To wit: "In Iran, we don't have homosexuals, like in your country ... I don't know who has told you we have that."
---

Syrian Bulldozer Week: A retrospective on the savage attack on the city of Hama by the late Syrian dictator Hafez al-Hassad, during which thousands of innocent civilians died while Syrian forces mercilessly crushed a revolt by the Muslim Brotherhood. Particular attention will be paid to the bulldozing of the rubble, apparently the Syrian idea of "urban renewal."
---

Hamas Hitler Week: A study and discussion of the similarities between the philosophies of Hamas and Hitler, drawing on the Hamas Charter and Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf. A special seminar will be devoted to the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem's support of Hitler and the Nazis during the Second World War.
---

Pakistani Honour Killing Week: Examining the ... uh ... intellectual basis behind "honour killings" in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, described by Amnesty International thusly: "Women in Pakistan live in fear. They face death by shooting, burning or killing with axes if they are deemed to have brought shame on the family ... They are even murdered by their kin if they are raped, as they are thereby deemed to have brought shame on their family."
---

Saudi Arabian Suicide Week: A study of the role played by Saudi Arabia in funding and exporting radical Islamist Wahhabi theology throughout the world, while many among its oil-rich ruling class would be the first to be beheaded for their decadent lifestyles, should Islamists ever seize power.
