Legendary Christian coach canned after student converts (Muslim principal fires him)
World Net Daily ^ | 7-28-09 | Drew Zahn

A high school hall-of-fame and Christian wrestling coach in Dearborn, Mich., claims he was muscled out of his long-tenured coaching job by the school's principal, a devout Muslim, because the administrator was furious over a student wrestler who had converted to Christianity from Islam.

Gerald Marsazalek has coached wrestling for 35 years at Dearborn Public Schools, amassing more than 450 wins and, in addition to being added to the Michigan High School Athletic Association Hall of Fame, was named "Sportsman of the Year" by the All-American Athletic Association.

Despite Marsazalek's success, however, Principal Imad Fadlallah of Dearborn's Fordson High School ordered the administration not to renew the coach's contract, allegedly in retaliation over the student's conversion and to continue a campaign of flushing Christianity out of the school.

"We are getting a glimpse of what happens when Muslims who refuse to accept American values and principles gain political power in an American community," said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel of the Thomas More Law Center, which is representing Marsazalek. "Failure to renew coach Marszalek's contract had nothing to do with wrestling and everything to do with religion."

Call Jay Sekulow of the ACLJ and within a month he will be reinstated, the school will pay cash, or both. This is a cut and dry violation.

Nothing will be done since his mentor Obama is a Muslim too..They are taking over our country and others so they will rule America unless something is done..Would you think this would be a holy war except against Christians..One thing we won't have to worry about is they will not take over heaven and with things going the way they are here in this country it is only a matter of time until Jesus comes back for us..He will also destroy all these murdering bastards. ..

People take your children out of that school and make sure the tax money they get no longer comes in to them..Fight for your rights or let them tell you who you can worship..

Ahhhh. Lovely Dearbornistan (pronounced Deer*burn*istan by the natives). Where one can here the call to prayer five times a day.

We should have asked 4-5 hundred thousand people to go home after 9/11. After the next large event, we will see in these the cradle of our downfall by being weak and not doing as much.

I would never allow my children to attend a school whose principal was a “devout muslim”.

Well yeah but, it’s not like we live in a Christian nation, after all. Just ask our acting president!

Sinse the 5th century, muslims have declared war on christians. Truly moderate muslims are ignorant of the Koran. Just look at nations with muslim majoities, they all have conflict on their borders. Now here in America, where there is a muslim majority, there is conflict. The UK has sharia courts. Wake up America. The Koran tells muslims it’s ok to lie if the end result is domination and ultimate conversion. The Koran says it’s ok to surrender to peace when they do not have the majority. They are working behind the scenes, and biding their time. We must not tolorate this, and push back HARD.

People might want to wait and see before screaming Jihad. “Flushing Christianity out of the school” might be true or it might be the coach playing the victim card himself to keep his job. Somehow I think there might be a little more to the story.

Hair triggers frequently get someone shot in the foot.

I called the high school. Ended up talking to the Communications Director. He said the coach was not fired, only his contract was not renewed. They could not say anything else as there is a law suit filed. I pulled up the high school website...it has Arabic written all over it, if you look at their newsletter. I ask why they couldnt read and speak English...he said the same reason that many schools post in English and Spanish. Many students cannot speak English. He said they were citizens of the United States...I ask how they could be because you have to speak English to become an American. He had no answer....

Most Americans are not really anything religiously. It's a facade. That is why the vacuum is being filled with Islam. And, Islam will put YOU out of the country. Either people turn back to God or He is going to give them over into the hand of those who follow Allah as punishment.
