Wonder why schools breed American-haters? Heres why.
A Leftist protester in Portland recently announced that the goal of the riots that have recently swept the nation is the abolition of the United States as we know it, to the applause of her audience (which included not just miseducated children, but a middle-aged priest who should have known better). Rioters around the country, who are overwhelmingly young, middle-class Americans, have made abundantly clear their incandescent hatred for the United States. In the midst of all this, the California Department of Education has given us a vivid illustration of how we got here. It has developed an Ethnic Studies curriculum that would make Josef Goebbels proud.
The Jewish News Syndicate (JNS) reported Thursday that more than a dozen California school boards have adopted resolutions in support of the states proposed ethnic-studies model curriculum, despite it have come under fire for containing anti-Semitic and anti-Israel content, and not addressing issues of anti-Semitism or including Jewish Americans.
Its all happening under the cover of darkness, deception, and coronavirus distraction, thanks to a group called Save CA Ethnic Studies. A letter to the California Department of Education (CDE) protesting the curriculum states: School board members asked to vote on the resolution are not shown the original draft curriculum, and not informed about the enormous outpouring of criticism it engendered or that a CDE process is well underway for the curriculums redesign.
The letter adds that school board members are led to believe that in voting for the resolution they are showing support for AB-2016 and affirming the importance of ethnic studies classes in general, rather than endorsing the highly controversial draft curriculum that was condemned by dozens of state leaders and tens of thousands of Californians.
The curriculum could have been devised in the editorial offices of Der Stürmer. According to JNS, the proposed curriculum section on Arab American Studies Course Outline contains a number of passages concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, such as Direct Action Front for Palestine and Black Lives Matter, Call to Boycott, Divest and Sanction Israel and Comparative Border Studies: Palestine and Mexico.
As if that werent enough, the curriculum also includes studying national figures such as Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) [pictured together above], the late Columbia University professor Edward Said, Womens March leader Linda Sarsour, the late radio personality Casey Kasem, actress Alia Shawkat and the late White House correspondent Helen Thomasall of whom are associated with anti-Semitic and anti-Israel rhetoric, and in the case of the congresswomen, a push to enact legislation punishing Israel.
Even in California, this far-Left propaganda has aroused controversy. Nevertheless, despite the ongoing debate over the ethnic-studies curriculum, at least 13 school boards in the state have recently passed resolutions affirming their support for the ethnic-studies model curriculum draft: Hayward (April 22), Castro Valley (April 23), Albany (April 28), San Francisco (April 28), West Contra Costa (May 6), Alhambra (May 19), Oakland (May 27), South San Francisco (May 28), Jefferson Union (June 2), Jefferson Elementary (June 17), San Mateo Foster City (June 18), El Monte Union (June 24) and Santa Rosa City Schools (July 8).
Nor is this proposed curriculum remotely singular. The commitment to multiculturalism that has now taken over K-12 education in America has been a godsend for Muslims in particular who are anxious to use schools and textbooks not just to preach hatred of Jews and Israel, but to proselytize for Islam. Worried about appearing insufficiently tolerant and inclusive, too many public schools and individual teachers have succumbed to an organized campaign by U.S.-based Islamic organizations and their primary benefactor, Saudi Arabia, to present a view of Islam that whitewashes its violent history and intolerant doctrines.
Combine this with the deeply-rooted Leftist bias of curriculum material, and it is no surprise that American children graduate from all too many high schools, colleges and universities hating not just Israel, but their own country and heritage. It creates a population that is rife for insurrection. What were seeing now is the outcome of years, indeed decades, of this hard-Left, anti-American indoctrination. When the Left took over our educational system, what other outcome did anyone expect?

Oh no, not Casey Kasem of American Top 40?
And American Jews will continue to support democrats, especially in NY.
I’m not anti-Jews, Catholics will do it too!
The violence and terror in the streets of our cities today is similar to the era of counter-culture riots, lawlessness and insurrection that prevailed in the late 1960s to early 1970s.
ANTIFA and BLM are the modern day versions of earlier counter-culture terrorist organizations like the SDS, Weather Underground, Black Panthers, Symbionese Liberation Army, etc.
What followed that earlier era is that as many of those America haters, insurrectionists, rioters, looters, arsonists, bombers and killers aged they moved into
politics, the education system, government, and some businesses, transforming them into arms of the ultra left democrat-socialist movement.
This new generation of rioters are the offspring, actual or spiritual, of that earlier generation of anti-Americans.
After all, they were raised, ‘educated’, mentored and indoctrinated by the America hating leftists of that earlier generation.
And, as this new generation of America haters age, many will follow that earlier pattern
They will become the elected officials, teachers, professors and business leaders of tomorrow, and as their mentors did, they will come to dominate
some segments of America and continue to destroy the nation from the inside.
Until leftists are driven from the education system there will be no end to this destructive cycle.
And the crazed IDIOTS busy protesting and tearing down statues and faithfully chanting “RACISM!!” are like dry tinder, with which horror like this curriculum will catch and rage across the country, brainwashing another generation with hatred they don’t even understand. Get off your a@@ and vote for Trump! Vote for conservatives wherever they’re running.
O.M.G.
Seems as though everything, everywhere, is coming to a head like a gigantic boil.
What will lance it? I guess Trump getting re-elected.
I can’t imagine a more stark inflection point for a society. Everything — everything! — really is coming to a head. We either go this way, or we go that way. America is going to be very different soon. Hopefully better.
This is not a regular election. This is a choice between good and evil, it is that simple.

I don’t believe the average person understands a fundamental fact about how our country is governed, which is that the Congress of the United States has the ultimate power to enact laws that will either ensure the security of our country or destroy it. So before it’s too late, those elected legislators MUST be held to strict account for its protection and preservation.
These moron have invoked the curse and wrath of Almighty God upon themselves.
