Furious Alabama town crushes plans to build large Muslim school
Daily Mail UK ^ | December 2, 2025 | Lauren Acton-Taylor

An Alabama town angrily shot down plans to build a Muslim school in their area, with locals citing the 'cultural takeover' of Muslims in a Michigan city and as far away as the UK.

Residents of Hoover in suburban Birmingham showed up in force at a zoning commission meeting Monday as the board voted on whether to allow the Islamic Academy to transform a local office building into a school and community center.

Around 170 locals attended the meeting, with many opposing a motion to move the existing Islamic Academy in Homewood to Hoover.

Citing traffic concerns and questioning the long-term use of the site, the commission unanimously denied the zoning request, AL.com reported. The crowd erupted in applause as the council voted against the request.

While residents agreed with the board's reasons for denial, there was also heavy discussion about cultural and religious concerns.

Some locals were fearful that the proposed K-12 school would transform Hoover into a Muslim society.

Protesters lined the meeting room holding signs and posters, including some reading 'Stop the 100 year plan,' a reference to a conspiracy theory that Muslims are trying to take over American institutions.

Another local held a sign reading, 'Give an inch - Dearborn Michigan,' in reference to the city with a large Muslim population and Arab-American majority city leadership, AL.com reported.

In 2022, Dearborn elected its first Muslim mayor, 33-year-old Abdullah Hammoud, stoking protests including a Quran-burning attempt.

This year, Hammoud was reelected with 71 percent of the vote on a platform of diversity and a welcoming community.

Some Hoover residents claimed that having the school would deter business development in the area.

'You're going to have real problems with this community, I'm just telling you now,' local Bruce Davis said.

Islam is a complete social, economic, political and military system that happens to have a religious component that they hide behind.

They hide by calling it a religion. Take advantage of American freedoms.

It appears, that they, along with many others, think the constitution is a suicide pact. That they can do anything, and claim religious freedom. There is another freeper around, who says Islam is a war plan. I agree. It’s not a religion.

Ha, the libs havent figured out yet that they are getting “their” students (headcount=money=powerful union) taken away.

On the good news side, probably not too much DEI and LGBTQ, etc., etc. being taught in those Muslim schools.

The SC is going to have to make a choice at some point. How can you have “freedom of religion”, also accommodating a religion hellbent on conquering and domination, when that religion will deny that very right once achieving a position of power?

Everything about this country and its founding and Constitution was under an assumed context of Judeo-Christian beliefs and values. While it doesn’t require you to be of one of those faiths, that is due to choice being a virtue of those religions - where it isn’t with Islam.

Ultimately, the goal of Islam is Sharia Law. There is no distinction between the two. There’s no “Islamists” vs “Muslims”. Regular Muslims never side with anyone but “Islamists”, if you want some sort of distinction. Islam demands; pay the Jizya tax, convert to Islam, or die. Ask them, that is what they’ll tell you is ultimately the “choice” you’ll receive.

While we can’t stop somebody following Islam. Allowing them to build institutions under the Islamic flag must stop. They are incompatible with “freedom of religion”, the antithesis of our foundation.

Well, they probably do need to be taught how to scam the welfare, the medical and the banking systems, make suicide vests and how to rape Christian women...and goats. That is a lot of “education” there.

Any koranimals in the USA need to be shunned and demeaned. Employers should find cause to fire any koranimal on the payroll. Hopefully the ‘you are not wanted here’ vibe will sink in to those 6th century brains.

Us inbred low IQ Alabamians doing what educated, intelligent Yankees are afraid to do. From the article:

“Protesters lined the meeting room holding signs and posters, including some reading ‘Stop the 100 year plan,’ a reference to a conspiracy theory that Muslims are trying to take over American institutions.”

Is it a conspiracy theory if it’s true?
