Malkin Sharia in the schools: Monitoring the American madrassa

Katharine Kersten’s excellent investigative work on the Minnesota taxpayer-funded Islamic school, TIZA, has led to a state probe of the institution. It has also shed light again on the spread of sharia in U.S. secondary public schools.

You’ll remember the heated battle in San Diego over Muslim prayers in a public charter school.

You may recall the jihadi crossword puzzle discovered by parents in Johnston County, NC.

In Contra Costa (CA) County, school officials allowed Islam indoctrination lessons that subjected public school students to prayer recitation sessions and Muslim re-naming. Remember?

It's all bad.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. If you want on/off either list, please freepmail me and let me know which list it is that you want to be put on or taken off of.

We’re slowly handing the mud people the keys to our kingdom. We are going to reap what we are sowing and it is going to be a festering cesspool. Everything Islam touches turns to dung.

The arrogance of Muslims and their intolerance will eventually result in an all-out war against them. It will be nasty, dirty and bloody. I just hope we are not castrated by the libs prior to the event.

Attn: State legislators,
These alleged “schools” should be defunded without delay!
Not one more taxpayer dollar should fund them until they
comply with ALL state/religion mandates, and allow access
to the public on a regular basis.
(the one mentioned in MN will not let anyone in.)

[hanfei]

You’re right. Not only that, anyone who burns it to the ground should be given a prize for keeping the peace.

Sharia ain’t no joke considering that under it the age of sexual consent is nine. That was in a documentary on Discovery’s New York Times channel about an girl who was executed in Iran.

Will that trigger a police raid like those people in Texas got if we find girls getting married under these laws in our country?

Or does Islam get a pass?

BUMP

[steelyourfaith]

This has got to be stopped.

I think Mrs. Malkin is approaching this from the wrong perspective. The problem isn’t the madrassas, the problem is that public funds are being used to support an overtly religious educational curiculum.

By demanding that “something must be done” about the madrassas, you head down the very slippery slope of allowing the state to regulate religious schools based on whether or not those in power find the religious practices bizarre or even offensive. Given the power to do so, anything other than worship of the state and those who run it would eventually be considered bizarre and offensive.

If the madrassas are engaging in violent criminal activity, then that needs to be dealt with. But if what we’re talking about is religious education, and that is what it appears to be, then these folks have a much right to privately educate their children in their religious beliefs as I do.

In addition to this problem, it appears that we have a
problem in some black churches: anti-american propaganda
and reverse racism.

BTT!

Can anyone tell me why MM doesn’t post any more Vent videos on her website? That last one was May 2007.
