Textbooks widely used in New York's Islamic schools contain passages that are blatantly anti-semetic, condemning Jews as a people, repeating old canards about the Jews wanting to kill Christ and faking their Holy scripture to mock God.
The Islamic texts teach that "the jews" killed their own prophets and betrayed the Prophet Muhammed through their inherent deceitfulness.
The books, obtained during a three month Daily News investigation that included visits to private Muslim schools, are rife with inaccuracies, sweeping condemnations of Jews and Christians, and triumphalist declarations of Islam's supremacy. In Long Island City, Queens, for example, fifth and sixth graders at the Ideal Islamic School on 12th St. learn that "the Jews killed their own prophets and disobeyed Allah."
At the Muslim Center Elemantary School on Geranium Ave, in Flushing, Queens, a textbook for grades 6 yhrough 8 teaches that Jews "subscribe to a belief of racial superiority...Their religion even teaches them to call down curses upon the worship places of non-Jews whenever they pass by them! They arrogantly refer to anyone who is not Jewish as "gentiles", equating them with sin.

Please read my original post...unfortunately, I spelled Archdiocese wrong, but if you search by poster Milford421, you will find it. Larry Cohler-Esses did a follow up on this story in April. Feisal is also a trustee of the Islamic Center...I'd like to start a letter writing campaign to the Bishop so he would cut ties with this group. If you've seen Peter King, you'll note that he constantly talks about this mosque and how troubling it is. Do an internet search on the characters of the mosque, according to the article. You'll be horrified at some of the comments they made.
Islam is more of a political ideology than a religion...it cannot co-exist in a democracy as sharia supercedes any other law. Log onto Robert Spencer's, www.jihadwatch.org, or Daniel Pipes for specific references to this in the Koran and hadith...
Dana,
Yahiya Emerick, the teacher at the school, defended the books as "evenhanded". Emerick has also been quoted as saying he would like to see the U.S. under sharia/caliphate, (see Daniel Pipes website for the exact article.)
Absolutely right...
read my article concerning the Archdiocese of Rockville Center. Alas, I mis-spelled Archdiocese, but if you do a search by poster Milford421, you will find it. Unusually strong connection between the ISNA and this mosque. Don't forget, the ISNA picks the chaplains for the military. They've also recently had their tax records seized by the government investigating terrorism ties.
I played some par 3 golf with my brother yesterday. We both live in semi-rural southwest Virginia. Driving to the golf course on US Highway 58, just a few miles from the golf course, there is a brand spankin' new Islamic Center in a previously deserted building. Out in the middle of nowhere in Southwest Virginia, folks.
Just a few years ago, I wouldn't have even imagined something like that "around here." It kinda makes the Mexican invasion "around here" seem rather insignificant.
I have been offline for a while, I will read the article you posted later. Thanks for the ping.
