Teacher breaks wall of silence at state's Muslim public school

[Uncle Miltie]

Separate, and unequal. Brought to you by Liberals!

...who had been at the school all day," was preparing to lead prayer.

He wasn't down in the basement cafeteria drinking coffee for the past 5 1/2 hours, was he?

[P8riot]

And to think that four words will absolutely throw them into a tizzy, “In Jesus name, Amen!”

[yldstrk]

Minnesota is filled with liberal ostriches.

Before the assembly, she says she was told, her duties would include taking her fifth-grade students to the bathroom, four at a time, to perform "their ritual washing."

ISLAM: We bet we can make our religion more of a pain in the ass than yours.

[vietvet67]

The playground should have been the first hint.

[gdzla]

So what’s the problem.
There is nothing in the constitution on the separation of mosque and state.

[Arthur McGowan]

There’s nothing in the Constitution on the separation of church and state, either.

Islam isn’t a religion or a church. It’s a political party.

Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy (TIZA) — named for the Muslim general who conquered medieval Spain — is a K-8 charter school in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. TIZA is a public school financed by Minnesota taxpayers.

The school is run by a Muslim Brotherhood Front, Muslim American Society (MAS-MN), recently listed a co-conspirator in the Federal Dallas Holy Land Foundation trial of last fall.

TIZA’s strong religious connections date from its founding in 2003. Its co-founders, Zaman and Hesham Hussein, were both imams, or Muslim religious leaders, as well as leaders of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota (MAS-MN).

Since then, they have played dual roles: Zaman as TIZA’s principal and the current vice-president of MAS-MN, and Hussein as TIZA’s school board chair and president of MAS-MN until his death in a car accident in Saudi Arabia in January.

This is quite a good article. I fear for the safety of the “whistle-blowing” sub teacher and the author.

[CPT Clay]

Here is the separation of Church and State that the Founding Fathers intended.

[ottbmare]

Gee, I wonder why we haven’t heard from the ACLU on this? Hm?

[SnarlinCubBear]

They are once again, hijacking your state! :(

KATHERINE KERSTEN better watch out. She may be ticking off the wrong people... The muzzies know how to deal with those who oppose them...

[The Great RJ]

When was the last time that Minnesota tax payers funded a Christian school with voluntary prayers, an on site chapel and special time for Bible studies or a Jewish Academy with Torah studies and attached synagogue? The ACLU would be howling for church state separation were that to even be suggested. It should make no difference if it is a religious school then no state funding should be given. However a simple solution is available, school vouchers. With vouchers parents could decide where to send their kids for schooling including religious based schools. I wouldn't hold my breathe for that to happen in Minnesota.

[coloradan]

I think it’s a violent cult. I’m a libertarian but Islam is testing my thoughts about religious freedom. Such as their honor killings, and having duties to lie to and kill infidels. The infection of dhimmitude into political correctness greatly galls me.

[coloradan]

Try “with involuntary prayers” in your first sentence.

[Sig Sauer P220]

How can a Muslim school even be a public skrool?

[Disturbin]

Maybe that’s what Mr Wide-Stance was doing in the airport bathroom .....
