The UAE Withdraws Funding For British Universities Due To Radicalism

 

Incredibly, reports indicate that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has withdrawn state funding from British universities, citing increasing concerns about the risk of Islamist radicalization on UK campuses.

British officials, apparently nonplussed, sought clarification from the Land of the Emirates, and were told that the funding decision wasn’t a mistake. Apparently, the United Arab Emirates, which, it should be noted, is 90% Muslim, no longer considers UK university campuses to be safe-- and increasingly regards them to be hubs for Islamist radicalization. Or so it says.

Islam is the official religion of the UAE. And its leaders think British schools are too biased, radical, and besotted with Islamophilia?!

This is as if Xi Jinping withdrew state funding from American universities due to concerns about the high risk of Communist radicalization. (To be sure, there is that risk, too, but Xi would never withdraw funding.) This is insane…on the part of the UK. The UAE is acting as the intelligent, pragmatic and rational party here, not formerly Jolly Olde England or its “educational” system.

England is no longer jolly, just old. The United Kingdom is tragically afflicted with stage 4 self-loathing. The prognosis is terminal. Only divine intervention can save it now.

It is ironic that the country that gave the world parliamentary democracy and common law legal systems, among many other gifts, is now dying of self-hatred and suicidal empathy.
