What does it say that a professor at Georgetown University--an Episcopalian, no less--is calling for Iran to strike US bases in the Middle East?

Nothing good. And he is not alone. Other professors at American universities have expressed similar or worse sentiments. 

At first, it would seem an odd flex until you understand that it is part of the "decolonization" effort that we hear so much about. After all, the very same people who argue that America is evil and must be destroyed are deeply invested in open borders and unlimited immigration into the United States. If the US is so racist and cruel, why would every Mahmoud, Mohammed, and Jose want to come here as "refugees" from countries they purport to love so deeply?

It's no conundrum at all, though, once you wrap your head around the fact that a significant chunk of the Western Left is not dedicated to compassion and peace, but destruction and replacement. This is an anti-Western movement. It's not about justice or compassion, but death and destruction.

Protesters who just the other day were flying transgender Pride flags, Palestinian flags, and Mexican flags are now hoisting the banner for Iran and calling for Iranian attacks on United States soldiers. 

It is all the same movement.

Open borders allowed Iranian terrorists to infiltrate the United States, and now Iran is warning that it is considering activating their terror cells in the United States. This doesn't appall leftists or make them reconsider their support for what they call the "Global South;" it excites them as they fervently desire that the West be stripped of all its wealth and power and its citizens murdered here and abroad.
