Except for the angry protesters, the first day of school at the Arabic Immersion Magnet School in Houston in late August was a joyous occasion. The school welcomed its inaugural class of 88 kindergartners and 44 pre-kindergartners with an assembly in the cafeteria.
The kids wore their school uniforms, green-and-white polo shirts embossed with the schools calligraphic logo. They learned their new school song. They recited the Pledge of Allegiance and the Texas Pledge. Alicia Kahn, whose 5-year-old daughter Maiara attends the school, described the mood as positive and upbeat. Outside, though, she said it was mayhem.
A small crowd organized by the anti-immigrant group Stop the Magnet had gathered near the school entrance for the Houston Patriots Protest. Waving signs and American flags, the protesters shouted their message at entering parents. Forcing a child to have to speak Arabic should be against the law, one protester yelled at a woman pushing a stroller with a kindergarten-age kid in tow. Another protester held a sign reading, Everything I ever cared to know about Islam was taught to me by Muslims on 9-11-2001.

Possibly the worst idea ever in the history of the United States.
I can't imagine that these kids would be taught anything different from Regular American Kids.
Wait what I am I saying? Even Islamist Propaganda is probably more Pro American than our Communistic school system.
They at least see us as a dominate culture.
Being able to so speak the language MAY be an advantage when the islamists come to full power.
The fragmentation of American society and culture continues apace. When you try to become everything, you become nothing.
In the world of liberalism, there are never any real world consequences. Every crazy idea and government expanding scheme always leads to a beautiful rainbow and universal happiness. Liberalism is a disease that is killing our country.
You can replace all those in charge but we still have to deal with tyrants in black robes.
You are so right. I’m astounded by the people I know who are supporting socialism and claiming everything we enjoy in this country is a form of socialism. I’m really starting to hate.
Houston also “embraced” any sex using any public restroom.
It’s jihad in our schools now. Arabic is the language of devils. The language of the religion of perpetual outrage. It doesn’t belong in our schools. I’m so glad I don’t have to send a child to these indoctrination centers. Has the home schooling movement finally been crushed by these fools, I wonder? Don’t see much about it anymore.
They beheaded a few Christians, raped a few of the girls (and boys), and defecated all over the lunchroom.
"It was a great day for Allah and the Mooslime community," said Molly ali Wali, a former ISIS sex slave.
Houston id an embarrassment to The Republic of Texas.
More doings by Houston’s lezzie mayor Anise Porker?
Then learn Arabic on your own time, on your own dime.
It may new an advantage in intelligence work employment. Arabic fluency may get non muslims government jobs. I worked with a spanish english bilingual white woman who grew up in the panama canal zone. Shes now an fbi agent.
The staffing at the school and Qatar finance tell a different story. The Feds have been doing these arabic language programs like FLAP since Bush but the way they are executed is silly. In the same community that supports jihad. It needs to be elite schools run by DOD and with well vetted staff. We aren’t seeing this here it is POLITICAL IN NATURE.
