One nation under Allah: Fury after school recites pledge in Arabic
FOX News ^ | March 19, 2015 | By Todd Starnes

Posted on 03/19/2015 4:17:08 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Students at Pine Bush High School in Pine Bush, New York, knew right away there was something not quite right about the Pledge of Allegiance. That’s because the pledge was being recited in Arabic.

“One nation under Allah,” the student body president announced over the intercom system on Wednesday.

Reaction in the upstate New York high school was swift, and so was the backlash, The Times Herald-Record reports. Furious students tried to shout down the recitation in their classrooms. Other students sat down in protest.

School Superintendent Joan Carbone told the newspaper that the Arabic pledge “divided the school in half” – noting that many complaints came from Jewish parents and those who had lost family members fighting the war on terror.

The outrage among students was so significant that the school issued an apology.

“We sincerely apologize for having the Pledge of Allegiance recited this morning in the high school in a language other than English,” the apology read. “In our school district the Pledge of Allegiance will only be recited in English as recommended by the Commissioner of Education.”

I have heard this school has decided to only broadcast the Pledge in English from now on.......perhaps they should read it once in Hebrew beforehand, just to even the playing field.

One inch at a time. One incident at a time. One mosque at a time. One community converted to sharia law at a time.

That is how change seeps in.

[All of that Arab oil money has been going for years to influence ‘friends’ around the world.]

Islam spreads just like cancer. Very stealthy in the beginning. No pain, no symptoms. The host is completely unaware of the danger ahead. Then one day it grows large enough to kill the host. Some countries recognize the method and take action. Others add to the count of Islamic nations. It is now 1.5 Billion people and 47 majority Muslim countries and growing!

School systems in this country are being run by women: males and females that like to nurture.

These diversity mongrels are in reality doing no favors to those they think they are protecting. A little tough love is needed for our Muslim friends, it worked before. In the 19th Century, the civilized world looked down on our Mohammedan brothers as savages. Many right thinking people in the Ottoman Empire, like the Young Turk movement and later Ataturk took this to heart and felt embarrassed by their culture. They did not want to be looked at as blood thirsty savages, but as men of culture. So after WWI, Ataturk forced the Turkish people to turn toward European ways and away from savagery. This ideology branched out into the entire Islamic World, with more sophisticated rulers like Nasser, Sukarno, etc. They also did not want to be associated with barbarism. That is why you can look up photos from Afghanistan in the 1960’s with the men in suits and ties, and the woman in thigh length dresses, sans the veil. Anyone wearing Islamic dress were considered peasants, not worthy of respect in those societies right up to 1980’s. But as we all know, something went horribly wrong.

Islam Talks and Ex-Muslims Warn but Is the West Listening?
By Barbara J. Stock
MichNews.com
Jun 8, 2006

About two years ago, I received a letter from an ex-Muslim and within was a very disturbing prediction of the end of the world as we in the West know it. He explained that he had left Islam when he realized what an evil and murderous belief it really is, but he offered little hope of stopping the massive force that Islam has become. He felt the average American was simply to naïve and gullible to withstand the Islamic onslaught ahead. Hamstrung by morals and the Western rules of war, he believes Islam will slowly tear America and Europe to pieces.

This ex-Muslim laid out the plans of Islam and how it would carry out its takeover of the world. He gave me the blueprint of the murderous Islamic political and war machine and how it would use America’s kind and generous nature against it.

I have recently revisited that letter and was shocked at how accurate and prophetic this man has been.

He carefully listed exactly how Islam will defeat the West and how the liberals will help Islam along the way.

“Constitution for the new Islamic Republic of EU and USA is under construction.

We will fight the infidel to death.

Meanwhile American laws will protect us.

Democrats and leftist will support us.

UN (United Nations) will legitimize us.

CAIR will incubate us.

ACLU will empower us.

Western universities will educate us.

Mosques will shelter us

OPEC will finance us

Hollywood will love us.

Annan will pass politically correct sympathetic statement for Jihadists.”

It is frightening to see that his predictions are becoming a reality.

In the two years since I received this letter, Europe has been subjected to attacks, riots, embassy burnings, increased crime, and parades of Muslims on the nightly news carrying signs with messages such as: “England, your 9/11 is coming,” and “Islam will rule the world,” and “Behead those that slander Islam.”

The Council on American/Islamic Relations (CAIR) already has plans to replace our Constitution with the Quran and states it openly and clearly: The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.” CAIR Co-founder Omar Ahmad.

Because we are a country of laws, Islam is protected here. Democrats are fighting to hand over Iraq and Afghanistan to Islamics and even threaten to impeach one of the few men that has stood up to Islamic terrorism. All the leaders of Islam must do is to remain patient and the far left will hand them a victory in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

Leftists support of Islam is demonstrated with the recent news that the far-left Internet news search engine—Google—now seems to be systematically hunting down any sites that post columns remotely unkind to Islam and labeling any criticism of Islam as “hate-speech.” When did the truth become “hate speech?”

CAIR monitors radio and televisions programs and quickly threatens lawsuits if anyone dares to speak badly of Islam. Avenues that expose the truth about Islam are being closed. But this is a free country, for now, and Google can censure whomever it chooses to censure. Google seems to have chosen not to censure the many Islamic hate sites that are found on Google.

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) makes no secret of its ingrained hatred of Christianity. While it monitors American schools with a passion resulting from that hatred, this religion-has no-place-in-our-schools group remained silent when Islam was forced down the throats of California school children under the guise of “history.”

In Ohio, the ACLU gave the Ohio chapter of CAIR its Liberty Flame Award “for contributions to the advancement and protection of civil liberties.” CAIR is supported mostly by Saudi Arabia which practices Wahhabism, the most violent sect in Islam. Within the Saudi kingdom, women are second class citizens, Christians are imprisoned and tortured for daring to pray in their own homes, and no other belief other than Islam is allowed. In fact, to be a Saudi citizen, one must be Muslim.

CAIR and ACLU joined forces to sue the federal government for monitoring certain mosques and clerics believed to have preached violent behavior after 9/11. Did the Nazi groups in America have the protection of a group like the ACLU during World War II? It would be bordering on suicidal not to observe those who live on American soil who often preach and teach the overthrow and destruction of the American culture.

The revelation that Yale University had invited the former spokesman for the Taliban in Afghanistan, Sayed Rahmatullah Hashemi, to audit classes caused a bit of an unexpected uproar. A man with a fourth grade education and a history of supporting the crushing oppression that is Islam was being heralded by the Yale administration as progressive and modern. Many of the alumni didn’t see it that way. Harvard was unhappy that it had missed its opportunity to snap him up. The irony is that Yale has banned the military from its hallowed halls by claiming our military is anti-gay and sexist. Islamics, such as Hashemi, ordered women beaten for showing their hair and homosexuals were simply hung if caught. For some odd reason, Yale does not find offensive a man that supports this.

American mosques are everywhere. There are only approximately 6 million Muslims in America, a country of 300 million people. One has to wonder why the Saudis and other OPEC countries keep sending money to build more. Using our laws, the call to prayer now bellows out five times a day in many American cities starting at dawn. The Islamics claimed they had the same right as Christian churches whose bells ring a few times on Sunday morning. Entire neighborhoods are being taken over by Muslims as non-Muslims flee to quieter and safer areas, and so more mosques are built and the population expands. Within those mosques, anti-American sentiment is often preached. The worshipers are reminded that they are Muslim, and should be loyal only to Islam, not America.

This is also the message of CAIR’s Co-founder Omar Ahmad who stated: “Those [Muslims] who stay in America should be open to society without melting, keeping mosques open so anyone can come and learn about Islam. If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam ... Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant.” Islam’s plans are public for all to see, but many Americans still try to ignore it all, hoping it will just go away. Many Americans cling to the idea that Islam is peaceful because the alternative is too horrible too contemplate.

Hitler did not “go away” and neither will Islam. This is a fact that the West must realize very soon. Canada is now fending off Sharia law in some areas. In England, a London Telegraph poll showed that 40% of London’s Muslims wanted to discard British laws and be ruled by Sharia law. When Muslim voters outnumber the non-Muslim ones Sharia law will be enacted, just as predicted by the ex-Muslim who continued his warning:

“On the camera:

We will always say, ‘Islam is the religion of Peace.’

We will say: ‘Jihad is actually inner Jihad.’

Moderate Muslim will say there is no link between Islam and terrorism and the West will believe it because the West is so gullible.

Moderate Muslim all over the world will incubate Jihadists by their talk—by defending Islam.

Using [the] Western legal system we will assert our Sharia Laws, slowly but surely.”

The Islamic plan is in motion for all to see just as this ex-Muslim has predicted. Is the West listening?
