Muslim students at the University of Southern California are enraged by the school’s recent decision to remove from a student group’s website an Islamic text that encourages the murder of Jews.

Until recently, the website of the now-defunct Muslim Student Association, which is hosted on the university’s servers, had featured the full text of the hadiths, the words of Mohammed that are not found in the Koran.

One of those hadiths calls on Muslims to “fight against the Jews and…kill them,” and promises that even the stones and the trees will assist Muslims in that gruesome task.

A statement issued by the Muslim Student Union at USC suggested that the hadith was being taken out of context, and called the school’s decision to remove it from the website “unprecedented and unconscionable.”

The Muslim Student Union accused the USC administration of practicing unfair censorship.
