PALESTINIAN WEEK ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES: EMORY - MODERN DAY POGRAMS

"Palestinian Week" The historical lie manufactured by the brutal terror master Yaser Arafat,  systematically  used to beat the Jews about the head, is spinning out of control. "Palestinian Week" is a rotating band of goons disgorging hate, thuggery, intimidation and terror. It is sponsored by Muslim Students Association (MSA), a key lobbying organization for the Wahhabi sect of Islam, with a network of over 200 chapters on college campuses. Founded by members of the Muslim Brotherhood, MSA was named in a May 1991 Muslim Brotherhood memorandum as one of the Brotherhood's likeminded "organizations of our friends"[1] who shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation.

I am well aware of the this rampant anti-semitism activity at notorious college campuses like UC, but Emory?
 

This from a  "huge fan and avid reader of your blog":

I wanted to share with you something that came across my e-mail box today. I am a brother of AEPi Zeta (Georgia Tech ME, Class '07). I have received the following:

Dear Brothers,

On Saturday night while our entire chapter was out of town at their Fall Formal the house (university owned) was attacked by a Molotov cocktail and set on fire. Luckily passerby's saw it and quickly called the fire department. The damage was confined to a relatively small area of the front door and front porch. There is smoke damage in the house but it's livable.

Last week was very tension filled at Emory with "Palestinian Week" and it culminated on Friday with a mock fence set up degrading Israel's security fence. Tensions were high all week but the week ended and we thought that it was over. Unfortunately, the chapter was called back from their out of town formal to find the fire and it's remnants.

We have all been in touch with the university president, Greek Life people and security personnel. The undergrads are very shaken by this incident. Luckily we have excellent leadership and we have arranged for security for the next few nights as well until things calm down. Our Epsilon Chapter is the largest on campus and very identified as Jewish. The group numbers more than 100 men and they are not a squeamish bunch by any means.

These "Palestinian Weeks" go from campus to campus across North America - about a half dozen or so a year and cause a varied amount of havoc in their wake. We've seen much worse than this in California and Canada but it's scary certainly anywhere it happens. These groups are sponsored and funded by the MSA "Muslim Student Association" and you can probably guess where their funding comes from.

We had another scare tonight at 7:00 PM at Emory and the police emptied our house. An unidentified book bag was on the porch and the bomb squad was called in. It turned out to be nothing but made the kids even more nervous. I am speaking with them every couple of hours and after the early evening scare all is quiet now.  Although this is a university building and I believe they are doing all they can,  I expect the phone to start ringing tomorrow morning from parents. We will do our best to assure them that it's calming down.

Also, in the student newspaper was published the cartoon above.

Here is an article about it, and a request for an apology from the newspaper

In Friday’s Wheel there was a disturbing cartoon directly comparing the Nazi ghettoes with the separation fence the Israelis have erected on the West Bank. This equation is historically spurious and highly prejudicial. The Germans put Jews from throughout Europe in ghettoes to either die a slow death of starvation, deprivation and disease or a faster death with a bullet or poison gas.

When Israel withdrew from the Gaza strip, it left behind fertile farms, hothouses filled with advanced hydroponic systems for growing vegetables, and other installations which could have been used to better the Palestinians’ lot. Most were destroyed by the Palestinian people. International funds were raised to help the residents of Gaza. These too have resulted in little improvement. Meanwhile, rockets from Gaza continue to be fired into Israeli towns. A barrage Saturday put 18 people in the hospital. In response, Israel has shut the border between Gaza and Israel, further increasing the suffering of the residents of Gaza.

There is a serious problem in the Middle East but Woodliff’s glib comparison of Jews to Nazis is not only ill-informed, it demonstrates a certain prejudice — antisemitism — which will never help resolve the situation. Whatever one thinks of Israeli policy, to describe it as akin to the Nazi policy of murdering all of European Jewry is to engage in antisemitism and a form of Holocaust denial.

Finally, I was struck by the explanatory note the Woodliff appended to the drawing. No editorial cartoon should need an explanation or an addendum. If the cartoonist is any good, his work should speak for itself. With that I rest my case.

And this from the faculty - a responsible faculty, thank G-d. The professors at Duke could learn a thing or two.

Arab Students at UC Berkeley Brownshirt an Israel Event, Attack Jews

While Obama is recruiting his transition team from Berkeley, their disciples in the religion of tolerance, beauty and love viciously attacked Jewish students. Their insane jealousy and hatred of the good is what gives these zombies life:

Arab Students at UC Berkeley Disrupt Israel Event, Attack Jews(hat tip Hal)

Arab students disrupted a pro-Israel event at the campus of the University of California at Berkeley Thursday night, unfurling a large Palestinian flag in front of a crowd of hundreds of supporters of Israel who were enjoying a pro-Israel hip-hop concert. The event was sponsored by the Zionist Freedom Alliance student group.

The Arab students unfurled the large flag on a balcony above the outdoor site where the concert was taking place, inciting a provocation right in front of the concert-goers, who were enjoying the event as part of the campus' Israel Liberation Week. Several Jewish concertgoers went into the building to ask the Arabs to remove the flag – but were viciously attacked, with one male concertgoer knocked down from a blow on the back of his head, witnesses said.

College alumnus Gabe Weiner, who was helping run the concert, was assaulted by the leader of the anti-Israel group, Husam Zakharia, who also attacked one of the performers, Yehuda De Sa. The fight was finally broken up by John Moghtader, a senator in the UC Berkelely student organization. Police were called in and arrested Zakharia along with others from his group, charging them with battery. Witnesses said that the Arab students shouted anti-Semitic curses and epithets throughout the incident, calling the Jews “Nazis” and “dogs,” and threatening to kill them. According to one witness, as many as 20 anti-Israel students participated in the attacks.

In a statement, the Zionist Freedom Alliance said “we call on state

FREE SPEECH:ROBERT SPENCER LIFE THREATENED ON COLLEGE CAMPUS

My good friend Robert Spencer is speaking this evening at the University of Wisconsin. He will be led to and from the stage via secret passageway; that thirty security personnel would be on hand (in addition to my own); that attendees would have to pass through metal detectors; and that a bomb-sniffing dog would also be on hand.
Nobody has a clue. Nobody.This is stealth jihad overthrow of our very way of life. No media is covering this and it is the most important story in this nation. Look what has happened to our country, our freedom. Please take this post and send it to everyone you know, any contacts you may have in  the media. Please. We need America to see this. Robert doesn't say, but it is obvious death threats have been made.
Any Atlas readers in the Wisconsin - PLEASE GO! I will reimburse you your expenses and pay for reportage -- not much but whatever I can do.

Spencer speaking tonight at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, which may no longer be in America

I got off the phone a little while ago with one of the student organizers of my address tonight at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He told me that I would be led to and from the stage via secret passageway; that thirty security personnel would be on hand (in addition to my own); that attendees would have to pass through metal detectors; and that a bomb-sniffing dog would also be on hand.

It is rather amazing to me that all this would be necessary anywhere in America today -- and all because I am saying things they don't like. MSA students have been accusing me this week of fostering an atmosphere of hate that leads to innocent Muslims being victimized. This is a preposterous charge to make to anyone who is trying to defend human rights, but it is also a noteworthy case of projection: it is they who are fostering an atmosphere of hate and thuggery, with all their lies, smears, and hysterical rhetoric, which combined with the way they and their allies have behaved at talks by previous speakers they disliked has made all this security necessary.

The Left and the MSA's on campuses all across the country are fostering a very dangerous atmosphere that is completely opposed to the classic spirit of the university. The increasingly apparent fact that all too many universities have become nasty little propaganda camps suggests that the principles of free inquiry, of honest and open discussion and dissent, and of the old adage, "I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it," are far more endangered than most people realize.

Racine schools hand out textbook with 15 page Obama love-fest... Real Debate Wisconsin hat tip Clyde

My 8th grade son is in an advanced English class at a public middle school here in Racine, Wisconsin. I just found out that my son's new (copyright 2008) Wisconsin - McDougal Littell Literature book has 15 pages covering Barack Obama. I was shocked - No John McCain, no Hillary Clinton, no George Bush - Just Barack Obama. I'm wondering how it is that Obama's story gets put into an 8th grade literature book? It would be one thing, if it was just the tidbit about his boyhood days, but 15 pages, and they talk about his "Life of Service". Honestly, what has Obama really done to be included in this book? Not only that, but on page 847 there is a photo of Obama at the 2004 Democratic Convention with at least 8 Obama signs in the background! Front & center is an www.obama2004.com sign.

YOUR TAXPAYER $$ AT WORK: SCHOOL PROJECT, HITLER STYLE OBAMA YOUTH

Remember the video I ran on OBAMA STYLE NAZI YOUTH? There's a lot of Obama youth videos out there but this one was particularly  frightening. More has emerged and it just validates our worst fears about the hijacking of our shcool system by the liberal fascists.

Fox News reports: 

The Junior Fraternity students studied Obama's economic plan with the teacher, and the superintendent did not know whether the teacher or the students scripted the routine. The group should have also studied John McCain's economic plan, the superintendent said.

In the video, eighth- and ninth-graders wearing military camouflage pants and navy t-shirts chant and perform a routine in the style of a step show, a dance popular among African-American fraternities at universities.

"People are upset that possibly taxpayer money is being used to support one particular candidate," [superintendent] McGautha said, "and now I can understand that. And I didn't condone them. I try very, very hard to remain within the limits of the law. I think this is unfortunate."

She said she was aware of the video, and that many of the school's activities are recorded, but that the teacher had been warned in a letter not to put it on the Internet. If he did, she said, he should seek legal counsel.

She was aware of the video????????????

The teacher's fate will be taken up by the charter school's board, she said.

"Certain things don't happen in public schools anyway, but there area lot of other ramifications when you take it public," McGautha said.

"As far as [the teacher is] concerned, I think he gets what was supposed to come to him. But I don't think the children should be the victims of his stupidity."

UPDATE: See Marinka Peschmann's latest article on Obama's 2007 Positive Behavior for Effective Schools Act. Her research of his legislation confirms his beliefs. Whether it's Ayers education or the Youtube video either way it's chilling.

According to Section 3 (of Obama's bill), “the term `positive behavior support’ means a systematic approach to embed proven practices for early intervening services, including a range of systemic and individualized strategies to reinforce desired behaviors and eliminate reinforcement for problem behaviors, in order to achieve important social outcomes (emphasis added)…”

US TEXTBOOKS: JESUS WAS A PALESTINIAN

Is he wearing a suicide vest?

U.S. Textbooks: ‘Jesus was Palestinian’ INN

‘"Christianity was started by a young Palestinian named Jesus." This is one of hundreds of distortions, misrepresentations and outright lies found about Judaism and Jewish history by a comprehensive study of the 28 most widely used Social Studies textbooks in the United States. In a landmark book called “The Trouble with Textbooks,”Dr. Gary A. Tobin and Dennis R. Ybarra show how millions of American schoolchildren are taught anti-Semitic versions of Jewish history and faith, particularly in relation to Christianity and Islam, in passages that often amount to sheer libel.

The authors found that U.S. textbooks “tend to discredit the ties between Jews and the Land of Israel. Israel is blamed for starting wars in the region and being colonialist. Jews are charged with deicide in the killing of Jesus. All in all, there are repeated misrepresentations that cross the line into bigotry.”

Among the teachings that were found in American textbooks are the following distortions:

Among the teachings that were found in American textbooks are the following distortions:

·         Jesus was a “Palestinian”, not a Jew.
·         The Arab nations never attacked Israel. Arab-Israeli wars “just broke out,” or Israel started them.
·         Arabs nations want peace but Israel does not.
·         Israel expelled all Palestinian refugees.
·         Israel put the Palestinians in refugee camps in Arab lands, not Arab governments.
·         Palestinian terrorism is nonexistent or minimal.
·         Israel is not a victim of terrorism or terrorism against Israel is justified.
·         U.S. support of Israel causes terrorism, including 9/11.
·         The intifadas were children’s revolts not involving adults or terrorism.
·         Jews and Judaism are legalistic. Jews are only about the letter of the law and ignore its spirit.

Tobin and Ybarra point out that in many books the Jewish G-d is depicted as “stern and warlike. G-d’s compassionate qualities, highlighted in lessons about other religions, are missing when Judaism is discussed." They cite numerous cases of a bias against the very foundations of Judaism, while those of Islam and Christianity are treated as fact.

Minnesota Public School Officials Refuse School Prayer

Miley says everyone at that meeting, including parents, agreed that stepping out during class to pray would be disruptive. He says he doesn't understand why it's an issue this year.

MUSLIM PARENTS, WILLMAR SCHOOLS REACH AGREEMENT ON PRAYER TIME -
Ambar Espinoza, Minnesota Public Radio, 9/16/08

A few Somali parents in Willmar complained that the public schools weren't allowing their Muslim children to step out of class for daily prayer. Some didn't send their children to school last week in protest.

Today, school officials said they won't change their policy, which allows students to pray during lunch time and between classes. For now, families have reluctantly agreed to send their children to school, but the issue may resurface later in the school year.

This is the first school year Somali parents have had an issue with Willmar public schools over when their children can pray. A few children informed their parents that they weren't allowed to step out of class to pray.

The daily prayer schedule is calculated based on the number of daylight hours. Chris Schumacher is the Executive Director of the local chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR. The civil rights organization serves the Muslim community on issues dealing with religious discrimination.

Schumacher says in Minnesota prayer schedules can vary widely, because the daylight hours during winter are so few compared to summer. (MORE)

Saudi funded Hate School Director Pleads Guilty to Covering Child Sexual Abuse

He plead guilty? According to the Koran, he's innocent. Al-Shabnan's arrest came after police alleged he covered up an incident in which a 5-year-old girl attending the school reported that she was being sexually abused by her father. According to court papers, Al-Shabnan, 52, of McLean, told police that he didn't believe the girl, and advised the girl's parents to put her into counseling. But state law requires school authorities to report alleged child abuse within 72 hours of learning of the allegation.

This director of this school curriculum included 12th-grade text on Quranic interpretation that taught  students that it is permissible for Muslims to kill adulterers and converts from Islam, according to the investigation by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, a panel created by Congress that monitors religious freedom rights around the world.

  Aformer school valedictorian, Ahmed Omar Abu Ali  was convicted of joining al-Qaida after leaving the school and plotting to assassinate President Bush.

Saudi-funded US charter school director admits not reporting sexual child abuse
J Post hat tip Van

The director of a Saudi-funded Islamic school in northern Virginia accused of promoting religious hatred has pleaded guilty to failing to report suspected child abuse.

Abdalla Al-Shabnan, director of the Islamic Saudi Academy, was fined $500 after pleading guilty to a single misdemeanor count alleging that he failed to inform authorities about suspected sexual abuse of a 5-year-old girl who attended the school.

Prosecutors dropped an obstruction of justice charge.

A federal commission reported last month that the school's textbooks promote intolerance and teach that it is permissible for Muslims to kill adulterers and those who convert from Islam.

TREASONOUS DEMOCRAT CONNOLLY TOOK CAIR'S RADICAL ISLAM $$$

Gerry Connolly, Democrat rep for the Jihad is on the take for CAIR's. Remember the low life I told you about here, Gerry Connolly, who offered strong defense of the Islamic school that teaches jihad, Islamic Jew hatred and aids and abets child sexual molestation. Gerry Connolly, who is the Democratic nominee for Congress in Virginia's 11th District -- offered a strong defense of the school and accused the school's critics of slander during the meeting in which the lease was approved. Connelly is runningfor Congress. In that post I wrote,

Who would vote for this jihad lover, whatever your party affiliation? Accusing great Americans of slander, it is he who is slanderous. I would love to read his list of donors, I betcha it is chuck full of Saudi blood money.

And lest we not forget, the: Saudis Gave 50 Million to CAIR. If there is an Atlas reader who has the time to comb his list of contributions, do it!

The Traditional Values Coaltion has discovered dirty contribution from the Radical Islamic lobby (only in America). YOUR PUBLIC SERVANTS AT WORK!

TVC TELLS CONNOLLY: RETURN CONTRIBUTION FROM RADICAL ISLAMIC LOBBY

Connolly Contributor Uses Aliases and Has Links to Hamas

Washington, DC – The Traditional Values Coalition (TVC) has called on Fairfax County Supervisor Gerald Connolly to return a contribution his Congressional campaign received from a radical Islamic official and reopen the supervisors’ lease renewal of the Islamic Saudi Academy. 

A Federal Election Commission report lists “Nehad Hammad” as the Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and reports that he donated $500 to the Congressional primary campaign of Gerald Connolly, chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors.

Law enforcement officials note that Hammad is an alias used by Nihad Awad who is the founder of CAIR and is listed on the group’s website as its Executive Director. Before founding CAIR,   Awad served as spokesman for the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP) which the Federal Bureau of Investigation officials have identified as a front-group for the violent terrorist organization Hamas.

According to several sources, Awad uses the name Nehad Hammad on some official forms such as IRS documents instead of the name Nihad Awad he uses publicly as a top official at CAIR.  One former federal official refers to CAIR as “Terrorists R Us” and points to a long list of CAIR staff who have been convicted of financing terrorist activities.

“Mr. Connolly should return the check he received from Awad, Hammad or whatever his name is today,” said James Lafferty, a spokesman for the Traditional Values Coalition.

At a May hearing of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, Chairman Connolly attempted to bully and shout down witnesses from TVC who quoted parts of ISA textbooks.   He repeatedly accused the TVC witnesses of bigotry and yelled “slander” several times.

“The cause of Mr. Connolly’s anger and vehemence in defending the Islamic Saudi Academy is now apparent.  Are there other leaders of radical Islam involved in or financing Mr. Connolly’s campaign?

“Mr. Connolly has set a new low for what value-neutral politicians will do to raise money or pander to the most radical voting blocs.   He needs to come clean and scrub his campaign of all terrorist influence and sympathizers.

“He also needs to right the wrongs he has done and bring the same passion to reversing the decision of the Board of Supervisors to lease a former county school to the Saudi government. He tried to pawn it off on the State Department which does not have jurisdiction in a desperate effort to save face.   It is an affront to every Fairfax County taxpayer to provide classrooms to those determined to indoctrinate young people to become the next generation of terrorists.”

ATLAS RADIO SHOW ON SAUDI ISLAMIC ACADEMY

 

ATLAS RADIO: FLT 93 ISLAMIC MEMORIAL & SAUDI HATE SCHOOL

"I am against this memorial. This is not your memorial. This doesn't belong to you. It belongs to the American people". Tom Burnett

Crescent of Betrayl - get involved! ATLAS ON THE AIR: Today's show at noon will be kicking the ass of the quiet jihad in America. For Atlas readers that want to make a difference and fight the creeping sharia in America tune in. The first half  of the show will discuss the Flight 93 Memorial that is an homage to Islam.  I will have Tom Burnett Sr. , father of  the great American hero Tom Burnett who led the charge to wrest control away from the Muslims that hijacked Flight 93 and attempted to fly it into the White House or Capital Building (check out  Tom Burnett Family Foundation) and the great public advocate Alec Rawls, of Error Theory.

Outrage over this clear Islamic symbolism forced the Memorial Project to agree to make changes, but all they did was slightly disguise the giant crescent. It is still described as a “broken circle,” and the unbroken part of the circle (the crescent) remains exactly as it was.

Call-in Number: (347) 996-3944

Today we will discuss this Islamic Crescent memorial.

Rawls's  training is as an economist. He was writing a book on republicanism (the system of liberty under law)  when he was discovered that the Flight 93 memorial was going to be a terrorist memorial mosque. World Ahead agreed to first publish my book about this rehijacking of  Flight 93 (Crescent of Betrayal, temporarily available for free download at CrescentOfBetrayal.com).

His  position is simple: The planned Flight 93 Memorial is a terrorist memorial mosque. Not only does the giant crescent point to Mecca, but architect Paul Murdoch proves that this orientation is intentional by repeating it in the crescents of trees that surround the Tower of Voices part of the memorial. (Repeated Mecca-orientations demonstrated in this animation). We hosted an open design competition in time of war and literally invited the whole world to enter. Of course we should have expected that the enemy would enter, and try to win a memorial to their heroes instead of ours. Much harder to understand is the willful blindness of those who are charged with the memorialization of Flight 93, which is supposed to be the symbol of our woken vigilance.

    Every place where the terrorists are memorialized in the crescent design, they are placed in the symbolic Islamic heavens (the crescent and star parts of the design). Every place where the 40 heroes are memorialized, they are depicted as symbolically damned, cast out of the symbolic Islamic heavens. One example is in the Tower of Voices, where an Islamic shaped crescent soars in the sky above forty symbolic souls that literally dangle below:               

    Forty symbolic souls, never to rest in peace, gonging for eternity in their symbolic damnation, strung like fish as they hang down from the symbolic Islamic heavens projected in the sky above. Is the Memorial Project trying to start a riot? (Click pic for larger image.)

Small Victory IN SAUDI JIHAD HATE SCHOOL

UPDATE:Robert spencer has this BREAKING NEWS:

Virginia Islamic Academy had its corporate charter revoked and never filled out IRS forms Surprise, surprise. But will their Saudi connection bail them out? I would guess that it probably will. "Virginia’s Islamic Academy on Shaky Legal Ground," by Patrick Poole for Pajamas Media, June 27:

An investigation by Pajamas Media has found that more trouble may be on the horizon for the Islamic Saudi Academy and the Saudi Embassy.
PJM first reported on the academy, a school sponsored by the Saudi Embassy, two weeks ago when law enforcement authorities raided it, looking for evidence that the school’s director, Abdullah Al-Shabnan, had covered up sex abuse allegations by a 5-year old student. The raid occurred just three days after the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors had renewed the school’s lease despite evidence that the school continued to use textbooks promoting violence and religious hatred.

Since then Abdullah Al-Shabnan has been charged with failing to report the child abuse allegations and obstruction of justice. A protest was held last week in front of the academy and it received considerable local media coverage, including from the Washington Post. That coverage no doubt played a role earlier this week when in a stunning about-face the Fairfax Board of Supervisors sent a letter to the State Department asking them to determine whether the lease should be renewed or not in light of the report earlier this month by the US Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) that reviewed the academy’s textbooks and found that incendiary and hateful passages had not been removed.

The school has issued a press release claiming that the passages have been “mistranslated and misinterpreted,” and saying that the “textbooks are no longer at use at the Academy.” That contradicts statements made last week by school officials to the media that textbooks will be rewritten and reissued before the beginning of school. Why would the textbooks need to be rewritten if those under scrutiny are no longer in use?

The textbooks are not the only elements of the school that don’t hold up under scrutiny.

Virtually all of the establishment media press reports have wrongly claimed that the school operates independently of the embassy as a private entity. Even Tom Casey, the State Department’s deputy spokesman, made this error during his June 24 daily press briefing:

QUESTION: I understand that you’ve received a letter from the — from Fairfax County asking you whether you could give an opinion on the lease of the Saudi school in Alexandria and whether the county should extend that lease, which I am told it’s worth $2.2 million a year. But — just, I mean, do you expect to pronounce yourselves on that? Is that something that you –

MR. CASEY: Well, I think it’s something we’ve just gotten. We’ll certainly take a look at it and see what kind of response would be appropriate, but I — you know, it’s not something we’ve had a chance to really look through. As you know, this is a school that is incorporated and overseen through the county there. It’s not an institution that we have any sort of formal role in accrediting or managing. But certainly, we’ll take a look at the letter and if there’s some thoughts or advice that we can offer, we’ll certainly do it.

And State Department spokesman Nichole Thompson has also said:

This is a private school. It is not a part of the Saudi embassy. It is not part of a diplomatic mission.

These claims by State Department officials make clear their position that the Islamic Saudi Academy has maintained a separate corporate identity from the Saudi Embassy. But a review of the corporate records on file with the Virginia State Corporation Commission finds that the Islamic Saudi Academy’s corporate charter was terminated by the state on December 27, 2004. There is no indication from state records that the incorporation has been revived or renewed, and the last corporate report the school has filed with the state of Virginia that we could find was 2004 — the same year its corporate charter was terminated. A check of corporations in neighboring District of Columbia and Maryland found nothing for the academy.

Shocked? Don't be. Why should they have to obey kaffir laws?

 

 

Texas School: 'There is one god, Allah'

Loud groan.

Texas School: 'There is one god, Allah'  By Sharon Hughes

Bob Unruh writing for WorldNetDaily reports that students at Friendswood Jr. High school in the Houston area of Texas have received education during class time from CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations. 

Local pastors have gotten involved. Pastor Dave Welch, of the Houston Area Pastor Council, confirmed that the 'indoctrination' did indeed take.

"The failure of the principal of Friendswood Junior High to respect simple procedures requiring parental notification for such a potentially controversial subject, to not only approve but participate personally in a religious indoctrination session led by representatives of a group with well-known links to terrorist organizations, and her cavalier response when confronted, raises serious questions about her fitness to serve in that role."

 

According to one parent the indoctrination took place during time used for P.E. classes. "I am simply trying to get the word out to those whose kids may not have told them about an Islamic presentation that all kids were required to attend."

 

See exactly what the school taught here.

Al Jazeera Propaganda, Omission, Lies on Virginia Saudi Hate School

So now the Arab world is weighing in on America protecting its citizens and schools from Islamic jihad? Al Jazeera did a hit piece on the US commission and pimped for the jihad teaching Saudi hate school despite the Islamic school's guilt in teaching violent jihad and protecting the Islamic right to molest children.  Al Jazeera is crying "persecution"!

Al Jazeera made no mention of the vile hate taught in the textbooks, the arrest of the director or the child molestation or that the valedictorian of the school was involved in a jihadi assassination plot against President Bush.. No mention was made of the fact that the Virginia school is teaching  anti-Semitism and Islamic supremicism or that the school promised to revise those textbooks (which they attempted to do with ...ahem.....white out).

Everyone talks about how the West is losing the battle of ideas, but this is not a battle of ideas. These are the most disgusting lies to cover up fascist Islamic supremicism and hatred. Churchill nailed it when he remarked, ""A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."

Al-Jazeera TV Reports on Fairfax, Virginia, Islamic Saudi Academy Controversy, Says U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom Persecuting U.S. Muslims MEMRI Here

Following are excerpts from a report on the Islamic Saudi Academy in Virginia, which aired on Al-Jazeera TV on June 17, 2008:

Reporter: We are at the Islamic Saudi Academy in the state of Virginia – the largest institution teaching the Arabic language and Islamic education on the East Coast of the U.S. However, this institution faces mounting pressure, and this is a nightmare for the families of the students enrolled in the academy. This pressure is exerted by several Congressmen, known for their great hostility towards Arabs and Muslims.

This child recites verses from the Koran with perfect diction, even though he is only six years old. These flowers, which have just begun to bloom, have sprouted on American soil. Their parents decided to help them find their roots in a supervised environment. This goal has been achieved at the Islamic Saudi Academy. However, the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, which was established by Congress, has recommended that the academy be shut down, alleging that its religious curricula, which are taught in Saudi Arabia as well, included material inciting to racism and intolerance towards other religions. [The commission] did not even talk to those in charge of the academy, let alone visit it.

Abd Al-Rahman Al-Ghufayli, Principal of the Boy's School: We have nothing to hide. That's why we invited them there and tried to discuss things with them, but I'm sad to say, they did not accept our invitation. This suggests that the commission has a certain agenda, which it is trying to implement.

Reporter: The local authority of Fairfax County, where the academy is located, has challenged the threats of closure. It determined that the allegations are invalid, and it approved the religious curricula after examining them. The non-Muslim teachers also expressed disgust and frustration at the allegations.

Kate Schneider, English teacher: The thing that frustrates me so much about these accusations is that first, they are not true, and second, it is so completely opposite from the truth. This school teaches faith, and the same basic values we want all our children to have.

Reporter: The academy's students participate in community activities, which differ from other American schools. The U.S. President even sent letters of appreciation to the students.

Fardia Turkestani, Principal of the Girls’ School: We are very proud that a student of ours won this award three years in a row.

Reporter: "I will become the slave of he who teaches me a single letter." So what should be said about those who teach an entire language? What should be said about a commission that some say is unconstitutional and contradicts the very meaning of its name? This commission calls upon all countries of the world to respect freedom of religion there, while the commission itself violates this freedom on its own land.

After a groundswell of opposition from parents, community leaders and concerned citizens, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, responding to public outcry, unanimously reversed its support of the Islamic Saudi Academy, and called for the U.S. State Department to investigate the school. John Cosgrove, one of the leaders of the movement, will be on my radio show Atlas on the Air Friday at noon to discuss the latest developments.

On June 23, 2008, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, responding to public outcry, unanimously reversed its support of the Islamic Saudi Academy, and called for the U.S. State Department to investigate the school. Though the UAC applauds the BoS’s decision to demand such an investigation, the UAC disagrees with the BoS’s claims of ignorance regarding the ISA.  Given the preponderance of available government reports, and the testimony presented to the BoS during a May 19, 2008 hearing on the ISA, the BoS only remained unaware of relevant information due to its own preference.  The UAC questions how the BoS on May 19^th, proclaimed their investigation of the ISA sufficiently resourced and conclusive, yet now claims the County lacks the capability to conduct an adequate investigation. 

The UAC regrets that it took the arrest of the ISA Director General, another government report, and a protest to convince the BoS to finally take action and heed the warnings of the USCIRF reports that BoS Chairman Gerry Connolly called TVC member Jim Lafferty slanderous for citing. 

The UAC also disagrees with the BoS assertions of impotency, as, on May 19^th, it fully had within its power to delay the approval of the ISA lease until completion of a US State Department investigation.  Instead it issued the ISA, and its now arrested Director General, an apology. The BoS has now called upon the US State Department to conduct the same investigation UAC and coalition partners requested on May 19^th.

The UAC believes the BoS can do even more, and believes the ISA has abused the goodwill of its hosts.  The BoS must stop passing the buck and finally hold the ISA accountable for its repeated lies and running a curriculum of religiously sanctified murder for almost 20 years.  Accordingly, the UAC calls for the closure of the ISA and competitive bidding for use of the County property it leases.

US SCHOOLBOOKS: Scrubbing Jihad to Exclude Violence

An Atlas reader who as a yoga educator has spent the past 22 years in the Far East (Taiwan and Hong Kong) and has  just relocated back to the USA. She wrote me upon her return, "What has happened to our country?"

The altering of facts is dangerous. Inaccuracy in textbooks is dangerous. In the Islamic view, Islam came into the world to replace Judaism and Christianity not live side by side. The jihad is that war. There is not one hadith in the Koran that speaks to a "spiritual" jihad. That's a western myth - taqiya propagated by Islamists. Jihad is violent.

American School Books Redefine 'Jihad' to Exclude Violence Stop the ACLU

In yet another example of why the west could be too weak to fight the sort of global terrorism that takes the form of Islamofascism, a textbook monitoring group is charging that American textbooks have been cleansed of mentioning the violence inherent in the Islamic "Jihad." Now, our children will not be taught what "Jihad" truly means, nor that it has been used as an excuse to kill their fellow citizens because our schools have sanitized Islam of all outrage and violence. Will the media follow this story and report that our children are being exposed to Islamic propaganda like this?

According to the New York Examiner, the American Textbook Council reports that textbooks approved for middle and high schools students have caved in to a politically correct cleansing of Islam and dumbed down history critical to a fuller understanding of Muslim history — one that reflects on our own times.

"Textbook editors try to avoid any subject that could turn into a political grenade," wrote Gilbert Sewall, director of the council, who railed against five popular history texts for "adjust[ing] the definition of jihad or sharia or remov[ing] these words from lessons to avoid inconvenient truths."

According to Sewall, several new textbooks, such as Houghton Mifflin's "Across the Centuries," have gone through an "amazing cultural reorchestration" to erase the history of violence associated with the word "jihad."

Sewall fears that a political process has replaced an academic process where it concerns the production and approval of our textbooks.

*******UPDATE: Andrea Lafferty, executive director of the Traditional Values Coalition, who led the protest today against the jihad Islamic academy will be on my radio show tomorrow at 12 noon after CIA Director James Woolsey.********

An evil  Democrat tool, Gerry Connolly, offered strong defense of the Islamic school that teaches jihad, Jew hate and aids and abets child sexual molestation. Gerry Connolly, who is the Democratic nominee for Congress in Virginia's 11th District -- offered a strong defense of the school and accused the school's critics of slander during the meeting in which t
