Milstein Writing Fellow Benjamin Weinthal's reporting on Texas A&M University at Qatar's (TAMUQ) dangerous research agreement with Qatar has spurred Mark Welsh, Texas A&M's new president of its main U.S. campus, to dismiss Weinthal's reporting as "insanity," according to KTBX News in Bryan, Texas.
Texas A&M is one of six American universities with all-expenses-paid campuses in Doha, Qatar. Doha is the major funder of the U.S.-designated terrorist organization Hamas, which on October 7 massacred over 1,200 Israelis and others and kidnapped 253 people.
Weinthal quoted a prior report that asserted "Qatar has acquired full ownership of more than 500 research projects at Texas A&M, some of which are in highly sensitive fields such as nuclear science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, biotech robotics, and weapons development." He added that the Qatar Foundation, controlled by that country's ruling al-Thani family, "owns all intellectual property developed at TAMUQ."
Welsh characterized Weinthal's report in words that better describe his university's Qatar agreement. "That's insanity. It's irresponsible." He went on: "We have a really, really strong track record of protecting national security research information every day and has [sic] been recognized by DOD, by the intelligence community, by a number of people."
"These findings pose a potential national security risk to the United States," Weinthal reported, adding that knowledge is transferred from A&M's main campus to Qatar in fields like "physics, computer science, and bioengineering with sensitive defense applications."
MEF Director Gregg Roman said, "What's to stop Qatar from passing along sensitive research from A&M's Texas and Doha campuses to America's enemies?"
"Tiny Qatar is the largest foreign donor to American universities," added Campus Watch director Winfield Myers. "Dangerous agreements like the one Texas A&M struck with Doha demonstrate that some schools will sell out to foreign powers if the cash flow is massive and dependable. Americans should demand an immediate investigation into this situation."

Let's talk about Texas A & M.
Their administrators don't, er, believe in psychiatry, even though the school offers degrees in psychiatry.
Solution? Hire, er, professors who are dangerously incompetent in the science of psychiatry. So committed are they to tanking the discipline of psychiatry that they don't even teach students to test patients' serotonin levels before they prescribe meds for anxiety and depression.
Texas A & M is so all-fired pleased with itself that they're about to take things a step farther, and change their name to Texas Dominionist University. This came straight from the mouth of the school's president, Mark Welsh.
Here's a quick refresher on what dominionists believe:

Visual representation of what book Renton looks like according to Irvine Welsh.
Renton thinks he looks like Stardust Bowie Era, others that he's like Alec McLeish.
Ewan McGregor is officially the best casted actor ever, look
And there's more! When Renton meets Dianne we're used to seeing Buzzcut Ewan in his slutty top but it's not how it actually goes... He's got longish, spiked up, dyed-black hair and dyed eyebrows too.
I need visual representation of this
(ps. He kept the ginger pubes)

Watching Trainspotting: Renton, you're doing what you have to do!
Reading Trainspotting: Renton you fucking junky bastard, no wonder Begbie wanted you dead!
...and now to start reading Porno! Because I have to try and not feel bitter at that ending! 😑

When you're on junk you have only one worry: scoring. When you're off it you are suddenly obliged to worry about all sorts of other shite. Got no money: can't get pissed. Got money: drinking too much. Can't get a bird: no chance of a ride. Got a bird: too much hassle. You have to worry about bills, about food, about some football team that never fucking wins, about human relationships and all the things that really don't matter when you've got a sincere and truthful junk habit.
Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting
