I guess you could say that they do fight...freedom.
So calling someone a terrorist or freedom fighter depends on whose side you are on. That’s not news. From the german and japanese perspective they were in the right. That’s not the issue. The issue is that as an AMERICAN we should have a different perspective and NOT GIVE A S**T about our enemies perspective. A man that blows up little kids is evil. PERIOD. It doesnt matter how he rationalizes it. Tesching people to see the other guys perspective can be useful but only to a certain extent. There are some things that we must say are unacceptable by any standard and that those committing those acts must be stopped.
Well, if we have to look at other perspectives, let’s not call the Holocaust “ethnic cleansing,” let’s call it “Semitic removal.” Yeah, that’s a good, non-offensive term. And we’ll call Stalin’s enforced famine on the Ukrainians “food conservation” so as not to be judgmental. Mao’s slaughter of millions of Chinese landowners...hmmm... we’ll call that...”wealth redistribution.” (/s)
Wonder what the College Board has to say about this?
TAR & Feather John Valastro and the so called teacher, out of town, on a fresh split rail!
Sounds to me like the teacher isn’t the problem. The problem’s the superintendant and whatever bureaucracy is in place that would force her to teach that treason to American studnets. Forcing American students to refer to islamic terrorists as Freedom Fighters is obscene. That should be punished by the people of that community.
None of this is in the state curriculum the Texas Essential Knowldge and Skills (TEKS) so when the teacher says “it’s in the curriculum” the logical question is WHAT curriculum?
If she’s teaching in Texas she has to follow TEKS or she’s breaking the law.
Now I’m going to go out on a limb here and accept the quote from the principal that they were showing the “Islamic” side, and that he is accurately quoting the curriculum.
Thank you, Principal for clearing that up. Islamics consider it to be their heroic religous obligation to slaughter thousands of innocent people to advance their cause. Lesson learned.
Now can we get on with extirpating this execrable mob of bloodthirsty savages?
“What is more dangerous – fear and ignorance or education and understanding,” he asked. “From our standpoint, we are here to educate the kids.
What is more dangerous is telling our children lies. They are terrorist not freedom fighters. Their religion denies freedom.
This teacher should be fired an never allowed near children again
