Bnai Haman, a group of Columbia University alumni and concerned citizens, have posted new video parodies on several of the active websites that it maintains.
The videos include Jazz-Pop singer, Nellie McKay, roasting Columbia University administration officials for their support of expansion plans that would impinge upon nearby Harlem residents and businesses. The video is posted on YouTube.com and linked from the Bnai Haman web sites.
Another YouTube.com video linked by Bnai Haman is from Red State Update, featuring comedians Jackie and Dunlap. The two review the visit of Iranian Dictator Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to the Columbia campus on September 24, 2007.
Bnai Haman, itself, with the help of the popular web service, JibJab, has created a video in celebration of the recent Hanukah holiday, featuring Ahmadinejad and his U.S. university hosts.
All three parodies can be found on the www.leebollinger-bnaihaman.com web site, which also provides easy links to other Bnai Haman blogs.
Bnai Haman chose its name, which translated from Hebrew means 'Children of Haman,' because like the evil Haman, a 6th Century Persian who plotted to kill all Jews, Iran's Ahmadinejad has expressed the desire to wipe Israel off the map.
Bnai Haman works to remind the world of the lessons learned by the Ahmadinejad-Bollinger speech and to forewarn other universities and academics about the price to be paid for permitting dictators, terrorists and other villains to user their institutions as a platform for promoting hate speech.
