Imagine browsing Facebook one day and discovered a photograph of your 14-year-old daughter wearing a burqa at school.
Thats exactly what happened to a parent in Lumberton, Tex. She asked me not to disclose her identity because she fears for her daughters safety.
Her daughters world geography class was supposed to be learning about the continents. Instead, they were given a tutorial in Islam complete with authentic Muslim garments. Some of the young ladies were photographed and the image has now gone viral.
The students were told the purpose of the class was to change their perceptions of Islam. They were instructed to no longer call those who commit terrorist attacks terrorists. Instead, the Muslim terrorists were to be called freedom fighters.
They were also assigned to write an essay based on a Washington Post story that blamed Egypts troubles on democracy instead of the Muslim Brotherhood.
I am outraged, the angry mom told me. I felt my blood pressure go through my head.
The parent said she was not even aware of the lesson until she discovered the Facebook photograph.
As parents we should have been made aware this, she said. I felt like the line had been crossed.
The parents said they immediately contacted the principal of the high school who defended the program and said it was required under CSCOPE a controversial electronic curriculum system that provides online lesson plans for teachers.
The principal told me it was world geography and they have to learn this stuff, she said. I called Janice VanCleave, a vocal critic of the CSCOPE program and the founder of Texas CSCOPE Review. She said the education program is without question promoting the Islamic religion and students are not given the full story.
They are not telling students how these young women are treated in this religion, she told me. In the Islamic countries women are not treated well at all.
Last month, evidence was presented at a state hearing showing that CSCOPE offered a number of lessons about Islam.
One particular lesson instructed teachers to provide classroom readings of selected texts from the Koran.
Students were also taught that Allah is God.
CSCOPE offered no comparable lessons on Christianity or Judaism, VanCleave told Fox News.
I do think CSCOPE promotes the Islamic religion, she said. I dont think its right to be proselytizing the Islamic religion in our schools.
Shes got a point.
Imagine for just a moment the school directing Muslim children to dress up like priests or pretend to be baptized in a pool of water.
There would be significant outrage. The national media would dispatch satellite trucks to Lumberton and produce one-hour specials about anti-Muslim fervor in the Bible Belt.
Something strange is happening in Texas. Public schools are embracing Islamic values and traditions while Christian values and traditions are being given the boot.
And unless parents rise up and put a stop to the Islamification of their school system the Bible Belt could very well become the Koran Belt.
Not quite. Public school unions are doing as they are told by their national hierarchy. The left has had quite enough of Texas, and is taking it down by a method tried and true.
There is a simple and effective way to fight back, and there is NOTHING the left can do to stop it once you start.
Have a heart. /s
Solving the muzzie problem is as simple as 1,2,3.
1. Tell hunters they’re good to eat;
2. There’s a bag limit of 3;
3. They’re out of season.
My fear is that these politicians are not going to create a new Ronald Reagan, but an American Anders Brevik.
You are exactly right... Perry is part of the Bush order of succession. Aga Khan was Bush Sr’s buddy at Harvard. Small world huh?
Aga Kahn foundation builds mosques all over the world to the tune of 40,000 a year.
Aga Kahn Foundation owns a lot of the land where fighting is going on in Afghanistan. Also, half of the banks that were funneling money to Al Qaeda in the last several years.
Convenience stores in Houston (a group of 5000 muslim retailers) list the Aga Kahn foundation as their major destination for donations.
But don’t worry... he supports the peaceful version of Muslim... we will all hang ourselves before it is said and done because we all operate in such a low information zone.
Put that on a per-capita basis, and we’re no where near 8th.
