State University. It started with a provocative guest column written by a Muslim history professor that was published in the student-run Daily Kent Stater newspaper. The column is an ode to an 18- year-old female suicide bomber who recently killed herself and two others in Jerusalem. In part, the column reads: "O, Allah, protect the soldiers of Islam fighting in Palestine. Accept the martyr into paradise.... Let us take the pain of Ay at al- Akras and the hundreds like her into our hearts, so that the suffering awakens us to the terror done in our name and with our implicit silence, and moves us to action." Lewis Fried, an English professor at Kent, read the column as Page 10 a call to arms. He is urging the university to fire Julio Pino, the associate professor of history who wrote it. "Anyone who advocates the murder of citizens cannot be on outhern the faculty of the university," Fried said. "Our job is to create a good society."
