De Genova said that he hoped U.S. soldiers would experience "a million Mogadishus," a reference to the bloody losses U.S. troops suffered in the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993. He also stated that “U.S. patriotism is inseparable from imperial warfare and white supremacy" and that "The only true heroes are those who find ways to defeat the U.S. military."〔Ron Howell, "Radicals Speak Out At Columbia ‘Teach-In,’" NewsDay, March 27, 2003.〕〔(The Most Hated Professor in America ) by Thomas Bartlett, April 18, 2003, ''Chronicle of Higher Education'' (reprinted here).
