Outrage as pupils given ISIS and al-Qaida propaganda as homework
Daily Star ^ | Nov. 27, 2015 | David Trayner

Pupils as young as 14 were handed twisted propaganda praising a terrorist attack - containing a quote about victims' bodies "flying like dust particles" - and encouraging readers to sign up to ISIS.

The "assignment" - which came days after the horrific Paris attacks - asked pupils to analyse the passages and identify the subject, occasion, audience, purpose and speaker.

An investigation has been launched after parents complained about the controversial task.

The first passage was from a blog entry from an ISIS recruiter's website.

It describes with different kinds of women needed to the so-called caliphate - such as professionals, police and wives.

The correct answer for "audience" was: "woman anywhere who might want to join ISIS".

The second article included a quote from Osama Bin Laden in response to the horrific bombing and killing of 17 sailors on the US warship USS Cole.

Students were told to scrutinise this shocking quote: "The pieces of the bodies of infidels were flying like dust particles.

"If you would have seen it with your own eyes, you would have been very pleased and your heart would have been filled with joy."

Mum Theresa Bosley, whose daughter brought the assignment home, said: "I'm all about education. I have a juris in education.

"We should teach about ISIS - but let's teach the facts.

"Let's teach who they are and what happened.

"Let's teach about Paris in Lebanon - let's teach about the 21 Christians that were beheaded."

Houston Independent School District, in the US, where the assignment was set, released a statement saying: "The intent of the assignment was to teach students critical and analytical thinking skills using current events.

"The district will review the assignment and follow up with the campus, if needed."

Texas parents are no doubt still outraged at the bomb hoax perpetrated by the JV Muslim nerd....Clockmed.....instigated by his Muslim father.

For the Clockmeds its an opportunity to cash in bigtime.....show the world that Islam is a religion of (cough) peace.

......the lesbian Mayor demanded copies of the local Pastors sermons.....demanding they stop any teachings about homosexuality. When the Justice department told them she couldnt do that, the Mayor has looked for another angle to suppress the Pastors and Christians. ....

TAX-PAYING AMERICANS BEING BILKED AND BAMBOOZLED
BY INDIVIDUALS ON THE PUBLIC PAYROLL NEED TO GO THIS ROUTE

Strengthen and enact state RICO laws to nail greedy criminal govt officials.

===============================================

BACKSTORY The 1980 Georgia General Assembly was concerned about the increasing sophistication of various criminal elements on the public payroll (and those in elective and appointive office). The Georgia General Assembly then adopted the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), patterned after a similar federal law.

(RICO is routinely used to try to prove that a legal business was being used for illegal means, and, in at its inception, RICO was used to prosecute drug traffickers or organized crime members).

In recent years prosecutors have applied RICO to crooked government officials: (1) those accused of using their public offices for personal gain, and, (2) tax-paid officials of govt agencies using public monies to flout the law.

To bring a case under Georgias RICO law, there must be at least two underlying felonies such as fraud, bribery, witness tampering (among other felonies).

RICO allows prosecutors to include multiple defendants charged with various crimes in the blanket indictment, and to charge that govt employees, publicy-funded and publicly-sanctioned entities were allegedly part of an ongoing criminal enterprise.

EXAMPLE A govt official commits two felonies by (1) accepting, and, (2) filing falsified documents.

UPDATE Georgia tried convicted and jailed 27 corrupt teachers under this law.....for falsely taking public money, falsifying official school records, and so on.

==============================================

HERE'S THE PATHWAY TO LAUNCH---Texas took the lead w/ 26 state AG's, successfully arguing that Obama's beatified DACA/DAPA's were made more desirable employees than US citizens.

==============================================

Any public official using tax dollars to flout that law is a lawbreaker: in cases where govt officials on the public payroll not giving public notice is a violation at the federal level of the 1946 Administrative Procedure Act, which requires notice in the Federal Register. Laws demand that taxpayers have the opportunity to submit views in writing.

===============================================

NOTE If proof is established that RICOed criminal public officials impaired the commercial and economic activity of the region, that could also be prosecutable under the Hobbs Act.

=======================================

PRIME RICO TARGETS John Boehner and his Congressional buddies are complicit in the massive fraud, waste, and criminal use of tax dollars......and the flagrant abuse of taxpayers. They could have reeled in arrogant govt agencies conducting criminal activities (DHS, EPA, IRS, BLM, HUD, DOE and DOL). They could have defunded the criminal enterprise called "Obamacare" and the Planned Parenthood parasites living the high life w/ our tax-dollars....but to taxpayers' eternal disgust....they didn't.

Barack Obama and Loretta Lynch labeling taxpayers terrorists, Bill and Hillary Clinton imperiling taxpayers' ntl security, Lois Lerner and John Koskinen targeting taxpayers, all the criminal members of Congress, and other factotums on the govt payroll should come under RICO.

====================================

Some states now have RICO laws on the books---these laws need to be updated to make sure govt employees are targeted.

Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son

A man had to answer for the wicked that he done

Take all the rope in Texas

Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys

Hang them high in the street for all the people to see

---------------------

Maybe not hanging for this nonsense, but how about a one way ticket to visit ISIS? Buh bye

Isn’t this the government using taxpayer dollars to endorse a religion? What happened to the “wall of separation.” Why hasn’t the aCLU sued these piggies yet?

More of these sick homework assignments? These teachers know it’s going to hit the headlines so it’s obvious they are continuing to do this to get AtTeNtIoN.

ISIS is doing the same thing the communists have been doing for over 50 years. In the 50’s the commies said they would take over without firing a shot. They have! (Read :The 45 goals of communism”)

Now compare that with the current events. ISIS and the other groups will take over the schools and teach your “dear little children” that G-haad and killing for Ah-La is good. Your little babies will buy it hook, line, and sinker.

Stop it NOW or you’re doomed.

God bless the USA

There’s problem #1: there are ‘parents’ to DON’T pay taxes and still utilize the services thereof.

IMO, hold govt to the rules they pass: Drop all property taxes, make everything service based (cops/fire/education/etc.) and let govt figure out to provide FREE education w/out the assist of a gun to the head of the producers.

I’ve yet to see materials, land, labor, books, etc. GIVEN to the State(s) for their education needs...so ‘free’ isn’t FREE, is it? (Sh!t, now I sound like a damn lawyer).

Even 5 years ago, the Muslims were making a move on Texas. I was shocked because it’s against the law to favor one religion over another. So it should be really easy to stop all these moves.

Texas is really big and has a big influence on the selection of textbooks. That’s why I think the Islamaphiles have been so aggressive there.

But finally, it’s hard to imagine this nonsense occurring except under a president who is more or less Muslim himself.
