When you think of places one might call “ground zero” for Islamic extremism in the United States, several places spring to mind. Perhaps New York City or Michigan — where one major city has earned the moniker “Dearbornistan” — would be your choice.
However, according to an expert on Islam in America, the answer is a surprising one — the state of Tennessee, where she says Islamist indoctrination is happening on a massive scale in the school system.
“Tennessee is ground zero for Muslim activism in the United States,” Cathy Hinners said at a panel at the Values Voters Summit in Washington, D.C., last week.
In an interview with PJ Media, she laid out just why the Volunteer State has become a hotbed of Muslim propaganda.
“In one of the counties in Tennessee, we learned that children in seventh grade are saying the Shahada — that there is no God but Allah and that Mohammed is the messenger — in class,” Hinners, a law enforcement instructor and founder of Daily Roll Call, said.
In the Muslim world, the Shahada is considered the most important part of converting to Islam. It’s analogous to the sinner’s prayer in evangelical Christianity — a statement desiring closer faith with and professing belief in the god in question.
According to Hinners, the prayer involves a public declaration that one is breaking with what Islam sees as the “polytheism” of Judaism and Christianity and submitting to Allah as the one true god, with Muhammad as his messenger.
While the recitation occurred “under the guise of social studies,” Hinners said that “there is no historical value in saying a prayer or the Islamic profession of faith.”
Hinners isn’t alone in decrying Tennessee schools’ rather odd embrace of Islam. Last month, Pastor Greg Locke, a resident of Wilson County, Tennessee, became a viral sensation when he urged residents to take an F in a course which he saw as Islamic indoctrination.
“Let me tell you something: when they are in sixth grade, they get half a page of watered down Christianity that has about as much Bible as a thimble, if you will,” Locke said in the video.
“And now there’s 28 pages that they have to learn about Islam and Muhammad and how it all came about and about the holy Quran, and the Five Pillars of Islam, and how they pray, and when they pray, and where they pray and why they pray, and about pilgrimages and all of this.”
I don’t get it either. The parents should be all over this. The school boards would have to step in and shut this down.
Who is instigating this? Where are the media, the parents, the ACLU even?

Tennessee School Districts Balk At Revealing Islam Lessons

The ALCJ (Jay Sekulow)
http://aclj.org/establishment-clause/more-islamic-indoctrination-in-our-public-schools
requested the curriculum for the school district - now the district does not want to comply. And CAIR is complaining that they should not have to reveal the Islamic lessons.
Sign the petition at the link above.
So, let me guess (I will have to research this later): CAIR is involved in Common Crap - I mean, Core???
They’ve also got a LOT of middle eastern Christians among them who can easily pass for muslim who act as informants.
The locals largely don’t want the trouble in Dearborn. The town is fairly prosperous and they don’t want to lose that prosperity.
So, let me guess (I will have to research this later): CAIR is involved in Common Crap - I mean, Core???

The connection between muslim brotherhood and common core is Qatar............

Common Core: Even classroom education has not escaped the tentacles of the Muslim Brotherhood. The connection between Common Core and the international terror group is through, once again, Qatar. The Connect All Schools initiative is a program to promote “One World Education.” It is aligned to Common Core State Standards, and is funded by the Qatar Foundation International (QFI). The director of QFI’s Research Center for Islamic Legislation and Ethics is Tariq Ramadan, grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder, Hassan al-Banna.

I'm sure this is the top story tonight with the MSM. That said, get the word out. I suspect a lot of Tennesseans don't even know about this.
Fight for Old School America! Our survival is at stake.
just search for Muslim charter schools. In Philly is Kenny Gamble.

[[I don’t get it either. The parents should be all over this.]]
Some are- demanding an explanation- the school refuses- citing ‘how long it would take to divulge all this information and how costly it would be’

Corker if a senator from Tennessee. Corker bill - arming Iranians with nukes and ICBMs. Maybe there is a connection.
Exactly! A terrorist is a terrorist, even if he is the POTUS.
1600 Pennsylvania Ave?
That was my first thought, well ahead of Dearborne or Tennessee. The biggest danger to America is the leader of our terrorist enemies, and he has another fifteen months in power.
Review and deport if need be.
Rescind residency or citizenship if need be.
TN bfl
This article is a little alarmist. It’s not all over the state. There is a high concentration of Muslims in Murfreesboro for some reason and their schools are useless anyway.
This isn’t going on in my county and I live only about 25-30 miles from Murfreesboro.
I live within sixty miles of two terrorist training camps, one in Dover and another in Paris, TN. There is another in Middle Tennessee, near Shelbyville.
Islam in a school curriculum in Tennessee is only a skin rash compared to the number of Muslims in Nashville, Shelby, & Murfreesboro.
Mostly Somalis, the worst of the worst. Now, if they think the rest of the Volunteer State is populated by Bible thumping hillbillies with guns, then they’ll stick to their enclaves. Won’t see bearded Muslims outside churches on Sunday passing out Korans anytime soon.
FWIW, there does exist an old Al Qaeda manifesto pledging to build an Islamic Crescent of influence “from Tennessee to Teheran”. Food for thought.
