A New Jersey school district is looking for answers after a photo with Muslim students replaced a Jewish group in a yearbook

An investigation is underway after seniors at East Brunswick High School in New Jersey received yearbooks this week with a Jewish Student Union photo replaced by a photo of Muslim students, the superintendent said.

“We were made aware that in yearbooks, distributed only to Seniors, the Jewish Student Union is accompanied by a photograph that is not associated with them in any way,” East Brunswick Public Schools Superintendent Victor Valeski posted on Facebook Wednesday. “Additionally, names of members of the Jewish Student Union were not published.”

The school board has retained private legal counsel to investigate after the superintendent’s own probe into the yearbook incident, Valeski told CNN on Friday.

“I did an initial internal investigation,” Valeski wrote in an email to CNN. “I found, at a minimum, gross (negligence) in the proof review procedure before going to print.”

It’s not clear who might have removed the photo and names of the Jewish Student Union members and replaced them with a photo showing members of the school’s Muslim Student Association.

East Brunswick Mayor Brad Cohen called the incident a “blatant Anti-Semitic act.”

“The action resulted in a picture of Muslim students replacing the original photograph of the Jewish students,” the mayor posted on Facebook.

He called on school officials to answer a litany of questions, including how the incident happened, who was responsible and how perpetrators would be held accountable.

On Thursday night, the school board announced an independent group will investigate.

The private counsel started working on the case Friday, and it’s unclear when findings will be completed.

The superintendent apologized on behalf of the East Brunswick Board of Education “for the hurt, pain and anguish this event has caused our Jewish students, their families and the impact this continues to have on the entire EB community.”

Look to the yearbook advisor.

That'll answer your question. It's unlikely to be a middle aged white guy with a crewcut hair.

Islam has been invited to murder the white Christian world. Look at Britain. Most of their major cities have been conquered and less than 10% of their population are imported muslim leeches.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

The culprit is most likely a faculty member with tenure protected by Democrat Party union bosses.

Islamic centers are popping up like mushrooms all over New Jersey and where it was once rare to see an overt Muslim person, it is now fairly common.

Until my 2010 retirement, I was a 150,000+ miles/year business air traveler.

I seemed to me that after 9/11, people from largely Muslim countries were now running the airport kiosks and ground service. Perhaps they had been there all along and now, because of the terrorist attack on 9/11, I was more "aware" of them.

My oddest remembrance was corporate limited our travel after 9/11 due to concerns of another attack. When we finally were allowed to travel more normally (a month or so after) I flew to Philadelphia as had been done by me dozens of times.

Upon checking into a hotel I regularly stayed at, the reception desk was staffed by a woman in full black burka, complete with gun slit face mask. I asked to see the manager and told him that his lack of sensitivity meant I would never stay there again. And for that matter, this "platinum elite" member wrote a letter to the chairman of the chain with my frequent guest card and told him the same.

RE:....a photo showing members of the school’s Muslim Student Association.

Was he in drag for the photo session?
And holding a copy of The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan. Wearing a BLM cap.

My school district didn’t have anything like this. I’m not averse to religious groups meeting on public school grounds — but I don’t think it should be an “official” club that would appear in the yearbook.

The muzzies infiltrate not to adapt to our culture but to force theirs on us.
MUSLIM POPULATION TIMELINE

  1. As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.
  2. At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.

  3. From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves along with threats for failure to comply. At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

  4. When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam.

  5. After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues.

  6. At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare.

  7. From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels.

  8. After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in Bangladesh — Muslim 83%, Egypt — Muslim 90%, Gaza — Muslim 98.7%, Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%, Iran — Muslim 98%, Iraq — Muslim 97%, Jordan — Muslim 92%

  9. 100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in: Afghanistan — Muslim 100%, Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%, Somalia — Muslim 100%, Yemen ---Muslim 100%.

Savages, all. Just what the Marxist left needs to sow chaos throughout the country. Like BLM on steroids.

There is a lot of noise but in the end the investigations will be “inconclusive” and no punishments will be meted out and no names of perpetrators will be admitted.

Ditch this Hate Crime crap unless you are all for arresting folks for thought crimes of all sorts. It is a Communist definition of crime. As you are posting here you are probably not a Communist but you are carrying Communist water, so to speak.
