STUDENTS MADE TO WEAR BURQAS IN U.S. STATE (Texas)
wnd ^ | february 25, 2023 | john griffing

However, in Lumberton, Texas, this week, high school girls were made to wear burqas as part of a CSCOPE study of Islam.

One student quoted the teacher as saying, “We are going to work to change your perception of Islam.”

The teacher in the burqa lesson, according to a student, also said, “I do not necessarily agree with this, but I am supposed to teach you that we are not to call these people terrorists anymore, but freedom fighters.”

Critics argue that this should not be a teacher’s role, and are concerned that CSCOPE curriculum appears agenda-driven.

According to a student in the class, the lesson was to teach about the life of women in Islam. The burqa exercise focused on fashion and did not include the fact that to be in public without a burqa in many Muslim countries is punishable by death.

At the end of class, the students were assigned to write a paper about Egypt. According to one student, they were instructed to discuss “how Egypt was a good country until democracy took over, and that things were finally corrected when the Muslim brotherhood came into power.”

>“We are going to work to change your perception of Islam.”

Well that should certainly change any good perceptions about that gutterscum religion into a more proper disgust of it.

Just having to write about such trash should turn off any normal young student.

“Freedom fighters”? Whose freedom? Certainly not that of women anywhere, and for sure not for Christians or Jews, or even Buddhists or Hindus. As much of the remainder of the human race is divided into Dhimmi or Kufir, only the Noble Islamic Gentlemen derive any “freedom” in this fight.

It is as if certain factions were trying to restore a form of the feudal system that dominated most of the West after the fall of the Roman Empire, and perpetuated the long night of the Dark Ages of medieval Europe.

I do not believe the term “freedom” means at all the same thing for the militant Islamic jihadists as the commonly accepted historical definition of the term. And increasingly, even in this country, the meaning of the word is becoming more warped every day.

Dunno. Having to wear a sack to school might have made them dislike Islam all the more. That would be a GOOD thing.

Make it real. Have a girl show up w/o her burqua and then have a lesson on how sharia police deal with such outrage.

I have to assume dozens, perhaps scores of parents showed up with pitchforks and baseball bats, especially in Tejas.

I know I would be first in line to figuratively pound some sense into school administrators.

This is written from within the community where this took place. This is not the first incident of CSCOPE lies and deception in Texas Schools.

Sure would like to know if they used the ‘Our founding fathers were terrorists’ argument to support this acceptance of Sharia law.

this is getting totally disgusting.

They teach Islam as non-violent and wonderful, and then teach Crusades, witch burnings and star chambers as Christianity.

So...lemme get this straight.

This perceived separation of Church and State that is the sacred cow of those on the left only applies to Christian religions?

Well, now that the rules have been defined perhaps we can get on with the game.

Fire this teacher. Run him out of town on a rail. This isn’t about teaching—its trying to instill his ideas into the students. Muslims are not Freedom fighters—they harm there own image and all that is good with their bloody actions. What will he do next? Have them wear Bomb Vests? I bet there is a great deal of Anti-Semitic diatribes in his lectures too. If a Nazi said there things he would be fired but because he’s “Cultural” is OK. In Texas no less! Things got to change!

Very informative website about CSCOPE. Warning: your blood pressure may rise as it’s obvious the program is teaching acceptance of Islam and rejection of Christianity:

http://www.txcscopereview.com/

Your tax dollars pay for this and the program is being used for what seems to be a longterm plan to indoctrinate your children into Islam most likely for a cultural takeover without so much as one shot fired. I’m willing to bet that a look into the program founders, administrators, and board of directors will turn up some strong ties to some educational foundations set up as Islam propaganda fronts

Are they going to force Muslim girls to walk around in miniskirts and halter tops, to help them understand what it is to be a kafir?

There is no red states anymore. Even Texas is a communist state. We are dead.

I’m all for forcing kids to wear burquas for a day. Most believe the BS that Islam is just like any other religion. Once these kids are forced to wear what Islamic women are forced to wear, their “perception of Islam” will change — for the worse. The lesson will backfire.

CSCOPE was put together by leftists for school districts to bypass the State Board of Education.

Thank you for the full “scope” on this propaganda tool. I’ve been watching the Texas goings-on for awhile now, and glad this krap is being exposed.

Parents have been thoroughly brainwashed to trust the schools know better than they do how to raise their kids
