Islamist Threat to Public Schools in Columbia, South Carolina?

Islamist Threat to Public Schools in Columbia, South Carolina? On January 6, 2004, Anti-CAIR published a Press Release concerning Minhaj Arastu, the lead contact for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) chapter in Columbia, South Carolina.

Why are we revisiting this issue? It’s the result of a complaint Anti-CAIR (ACAIR) received from the parent of an Irmo High School, Columbia, SC student. Why is Irmo High School important? …Mijhaj Arastu is the teacher the parent is concerned about.

In his capacity of teacher at Irmo High School, Mr. Arastu:

1. Required the students to create a pamphlet which would teach people about Islam.

2. Spent an inordinate amount of time discussing the “5 pillars of Islam”.

3. Had an “Orthodox Christian” priest speak to the class…who informed the students that all religions are based on Islam.

4. Told students that the United States is a Judeo-Christian-Muslim” nation…according to the beliefs of the founding fathers.

5. According to the student, Arastu is a passionate Muslim and is the sponsor of the school Muslim student group and was instrumental in having a portion of the school library set aside for Muslim students to pray each day. (There are no such accommodations for other faiths.)

So…we have a CAIR officer, sponsoring the school’s Muslim student group, bringing in speakers who falsely claim that the founding fathers desired the fledgling United States to be a “Judeo-Christian-Muslim nation”…requiring students to create Muslim pamphlets…learning about the five pillars of Islam…

Just when do we Americans wake up to the threat of militant Islam in our public schools? When is “enough…enough”? What will it take to get parents, teachers, administrators, and the public incensed to the point where positive steps are taken to protect our children from the false indoctrination and perversions of radical Islamists?

We saw with our own eyes the evil of radical Islam on 9-11…we’re seeing militant Islam rear its filthy head in Europe on an almost daily basis…our soldiers are returning to our country in body bags as the result of militant Islamists hell-bent on earning a place in paradise by killing “infidels”…just why do we put up with militant Islam in the United States? At what point will the straw break…and what will happen when it does?

We invite our readers to read an excellent article by Dr. Daniel Pipes on the issue of Islamist influence in the public schools.The gist of Dr. Pipe’s article is that Islamists are deliberately targeting our school systems in an attempt to spread propaganda to students in the tenets of Islam.

Read his words carefully…you’ll never be able to say you weren’t warned

not to mention GWB calling it a religion of peace.

..."...We saw with our own eyes the evil of radical Islam on 9-11…we’re seeing militant Islam rear its filthy head in Europe on an almost daily basis…..Islamists hell-bent on earning a place in paradise by killing “infidels”…"...

Islam is an affront to the history of mankind. Other religions and other cultures have had to come to grips with their doctrine. Islam feels itself exempt from self-inspection.

Islam has waived its virtue in America. Islam is a gutter cult, and deserves no place in public schools.

Homosexual Agenda Ping. The article is about Muslim indoctrination in a S.C. school but post #16 is an article relevent to our pinglist.

The word "hurtful" hurts my ears.

Let me and ItsOurTimeNow know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Required reading for all student and parents:

Prophet of Doom - Islam’s Terrorist Dogma, In Muhammad’s Own Words

Islam is a caustic blend of regurgitated paganism and twisted Bible stories.
Muhammad, its lone prophet, conceived his religion solely to satiate his lust for power, sex, and money.
He was a terrorist.

And if you think these conclusions are shocking, wait until you see the evidence at www.prophetofdoom.net.

‘Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth’

--Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998

I imagine one reason the school has bent over backwards to accomodate the prayers in the library, is that the school is afraid of them. There is a Mosque in the small S.C. town I live in and the inhabitants are not very friendly.

I can assure you the disapproving glares of townspeople do not help, but they dress like they're in the 7th century. However, the women (and men) drive cars, go figure.

Frankly I'm amazed this is tolerated anywhere, but I really didn't think it would be tolerated in the Bible Belt.

These people that want to follow and introduce their cultures into American history and into the founding principles is how typical Islamists forcefully feeds non-Muslim societies with their rubbish garbage religion.

I went to the school website just now. I found this Mr.Arastu's particulars. I am going to call the school first thing this evening i.e early morning in USA.

I thought you couldn't teach any religion in a public school.

You can if your threat to kill anyone attempting to prevent you from doing so is credible.

[little jeremiah]

"The only religion on earth."

It's amazing that people don't/don't want to see what the purveyors of Islam openly admit.

The history of Islamic domination, slaughter, aggression, rapine, and forced conversions is horrible.

I used to think nicely of Islam (respecting all religions) but I have come to think differently. I know that many Muslim regular people are not evil. They have been born into that culture, and according to the tenets of Islam, are not allowed under pain of death to "quit". But the teachings degrade the mind. The best Muslims are those who aren't very religious, it seems.

Every Muslim east of Saudi Arabia (as well as in other directions) is the descendent of someone who was forcibly converted, often at the point of a scimitar.

PING!

Would you want to be the public school official who told this group they couldn't pray? You could be next to be Van Goghed.

That's a trick question.

Options:

1. Attend all meeting of the city council and the school board. Join both and become active in local politics.

2. Pull your kids out of public schools and start homeschooling. This pulls money out the local public schools. If enough people do this, things will change.

3. Take your children to a Christian independent school. There are lots of them in SC. For the closest one, check the website of the SC Independent School Association. That's what I did, and I help pay the tuition by teaching high school Spanish (many parents work in different capacities at the school for a reduced tuition). At our school we have daily devotions, weekly chapel, k4-12 Bible classes... and no Islam is taught!

[EdReform]

We have our hands full exposing GLSEN and now we have to worry about yet another filthy evil, bald-faced liar organization, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). It never ends.

[The_Media_never_lie]

I'm just trying to see this issue from the school administrator's eyes. Most would like to live to enjoy their retirement.

[velocityguy]

So you are suggesting that non-Muslims in this world should simply bend over and allow these violent people of the moongod aka the 72 virgin seekers take over our Public Schools? If Americans do not learn how to fight back these Islamists legally and ideologically, American society will simply die down like how the Asian societies have died down and how Eurpean societies are currently dying down, unable to fight the Islamic violence.

[little jeremiah]

Yet another reason to homeschool.

[The_Media_never_lie]

If the Muslims are allowed to proselytize at school, they will prey upon the disaffected, and marginalized students.There are students who do not fit in and are looking for a way to be different.

I don't think this has a place in the public school but the children should not have to be pawns to challenge this. It must be legally challenged.

Oh, I have no problem seeing it through the administrator's eye. What I have a problem with is thinking of it as anything but craven cowardice.

Personally, I'd regard such an attack as nothing so much as an opportunity.
