LEBANON, Pa. – Dozens of teachers and administrators in Pennsylvania’s Lebanon School District recently attended a taxpayer-funded in-service workshop at a local mosque to learn about Islam and Arabic culture.

About 50 staffers from the district attended an in-service workshop Monday led by former district Arabic translator Mohamed Omar, who “took time off from his new job as a case worker for the Department of Human Services in Philadelphia to share his knowledge of Islam with the staff, which included Superintendent Marianne Bartley and several other administrators,” the Lebanon Daily News reports.

The workshop started off at the high school where Omar discussed the differences and similarities between the education systems in the U.S. and Arab countries. Afterward, they headed to the nearby Lebanon Valley Mosque to delve into the Islamic religion and join a prayer service with the congregation, according to the news site.

“Dozens of teachers and administrators in Pennsylvania’s Lebanon School District recently attended a taxpayer-funded in-service workshop at a local mosque...”

Are these the same dolts that rant and rave about separation of church and state when a kid says a prayer in school?

Seems like they could've gotten a more informative lesson with a drive over to Somerset County.

Yes they are. And this PROVES what hypocritical PHONIES they are. The next time these bureacrats starts to fret about kids praying, the American flag, or kids drawing a picture of a gun, we the people should tell them to F$CK OFF.

I am sick and tired of this double standard bull$hit.

If I were a school board member there, I'd insist that the meeting at the mosque be followed up by a mandatory visit to Shanksville, and then to Ground Zero.

Or would that be too politically-incorrect?

Idiots like Ted Kennedy enacted laws like the damn EB-5 Visa program as far back as 1990 that provides wealthy Chinese our US citizenship plus their families get citizenship for investing 500K in a hotel in a depressed city like Portland, OR. Yes folks liberal asses have been selling our citizenship to folks we never wanted here. That is what progressive jerks think about those who have died to keep this nation free. Obama even lets them cross our border and steal our money for every handout the libs created and of course their vote is implied.

MEGA DITTOS ..!!!!!

Seems like it’s time for the pubic to get rid of this districts public education people - if they’re not elected .. then make it happen - make them explain in an election why they feel using propaganda on our children is a good thing ..??

THESE SCHOOL UNIONS HAVE TO BE REMOVED FROM OUR SCHOOL SYSTEMS - THEY ARE PROMOTING ISLAM TO CHRISTIAN CHILDREN IN ORDER TO SUBVERT AMERICA.

PARENTS .. YOU BETTER START PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT’S GOING ON IN YOUR SCHOOL.

Remember, in Eagle Point, OR, the parents got so fed up - they organized - kept all the children out of school - set up schooling in different homes - Suddenly, one day - none of the children showed up for school. Remember also - schools get paid by the FEDS for every child - NO CHILDREN - NO MONEY. It didn’t take very long before the district came crawling to the parents - and significant changes were made at the school.

THAT IS HOW YOU STOP THIS CRAP ..!!!!!!!

Was wondering the same. I’d like to see a copy of their scheduled synagogue and Christian church visits.

Teachers seemed to think the session was enlightening.

Keep on yanking the junkyard dogs' chains, Mohammed.. then one day POW! to the moon!

Islamists consider it apostasy to adopt our culture..

the only good thing about this "let us teach you about Islam" crap is that more and more people will accept Islamists internment for the duration as necessary to win W.W.III.
