Every day we learn the Islamicists and the leftists have more and more in common.

Brainwashing school kids has long been a priority of the democrat and leftist enemies within.

Seems they have new allies in the war against America.

[kinsman redeemer]

Not if you teach them at home.

This is another example of how our tax money is not being wasted by our great NEA run school system. Give your tax money freely and as often as you can. It's for our chillen.

Everyone knows this a false accusation; we all know that Christoper Al Ek-bar Columbus discovered the Americas with the Nina, Pinta and the Allah Akbar.... < /yes, I'm being sarcastic>

[codder too]

Be sure to see the Fordham Foundation report. It gives specific references to the Pennsylvania curriculum. A real eye opener.

Eradicating this will require STATE level action as it is so deeply intrenched at this point.

LOL. PC vs PC. Muslims vs American Indians.

[ken5050]

It's TRUE..MUslims did discover America..about 50 years BEFORE the Vikings landed...they spent 5 years travellign up and down the east coast, but when the couldn't find ONE camel, nor one fig tree, they said the land had no promise, that no one would want to live there..

Muslim explorers preceded Columbus to North America

Hey, maybe that's why pita bread resembles Indian flat bread.

Revisionist History!
Now Playing at a school near you!

The more I read about these traitors from CAIR, the more I realize they should be shipped out of here. Or sent to GITMO for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

I saw a program last week broadcasted on our local "community information" cable TV channel.

The program was a panel of religious leaders in the Jacksonville FL area. One panel member was a Muslim cleric, who stated--in all seriousness--that all religions are united because Jesus Christ himself was a Muslim, as were Moses and Abraham.

Why not????

We already learn about how Cleopatra was black and watch movies about female gun slingers of the west. I think such a lesson belongs in every classroom right after we celebrate Quansa and read the story "My Two Dads" to the kids.

Just an opinion.

Teachers too ill-educated to know the difference, too cowardly to speak out, or merely silenced by the NEA.

Algonquin chiefs named Abdul-Rahim and Abdallah Ibn Malik!

Well; That might explain the devolution of the indigenous humans who eventually became the savages we met.
I always wondered why I have an utter disdain for those useless cultures.

Infiltrating our schools like this is a form of ideological terrorism in a sense.

I took the time to read much of the report, focusing on the section regarding the efforts in Mass. Either the parents up there are asleep at the wheel or on board with this charade, either way "Boston, we have a problem."

I looked into this several years ago as part of my geneaological studies in my home state of Virginia. At the time, I had no idea of the political ramifications of what I was finding. One bit of "evidence" I read about was that someone claimed a Native American tribe in VA wore fez hats much like those worn today in Morocco. However, there IS evidence that Arabs could have preceeded Columbus. Chris found the rotted hull of a ship on one of the islands (I forget which) that looked like the design of an Arab vessel (I forget its name). One source I read said that Samuel Morison, eminent American and Columbus historian, had mentioned it in his writing. And so he did. He rather dismissed it, but he did note that Columbus mentioned it in his writing.

So, yes, Arabs may have preceded Columbus. I personally don't think its all that significant because I think there is evidence here that lots of people preceded Columbus. But it was Columbus who was fortunate enough to get here after the invention of the printing press and who was insightful enough to grasp the enormity of what he found to do something about it--begin settlements.

It's like reading a Soviet book for school children.

All the major discoveries were made by scientists from the Soviet Union and satellite countries, according to the old Soviet textbooks.

It seems surreal to us, but it was the norm in those days. Propaganda works.

[Eurotwit]

Veronica,

These are vile lies.

Everyone knows that the Norse were the first to discover America :-)

[reagan_fanatic]

A Native American tribe has forced distributors of an Arab studies guide for American teachers to remove an inaccurate and absurd passage that Muslim explorers preceded Columbus to North America, and eventually became Algonquin chiefs named Abdul-Rahim and Abdallah Ibn Malik!

A lie told often enough becomes the truth.

Unfortunately, this is standard practice amongst liberals and muslims today.
