5 Manila schools now teach Arabic, Muslim values

Muslim students of five public elementary and high schools in Manila are now learning the Arabic language and Muslim values.

Mayor Alfredo Lim said asatidz or Muslim teachers are handling the Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education (Alive) program that began last month at the Santiago Elementary School, Avanceña High School, Apolinario Mabini Elementary School, Aurora Quezon Elementary School and Baseco Elementary School.

The city government has deployed 18 asatidz to teach some 1,040 Muslim students in the five schools.

Areas like Quiapo have huge Muslim communities.

“This is in recognition of the multifaceted personalities and cultures of our young people, particularly our Muslim students. We have the schools to nurture them and the asatidz to teach them basic Islamic values,” Lim said.

Asatidz were trained by the Department of Education on English language skills, lesson planning and teaching strategies under the Beginning English for Asatidz (BEA) training program.

The BEA program equips the asatidz with the knowledge and skills to teach the Arabic language and Islamic-values in public schools with a significant number of Muslim students.

Dhimmitude in the making. What the hell is wrong with people, these days? Has some nefarious, malevolent personage or group managed to develop a tasteless, odorless, dumbass gas and release it over the entire world?

Honestly, it looks more and more like we will ultimately simply roll over for the Islamofascists and just hand over the keys to the kingdom of freedom.

Pathetic appeasement and apologies won’t stop the jihad in support of the global caliphate. It’s not going to change the muzzie playbook, the quran, or their blind belief in their pedophile prophet of the seventh century. They are commanded, they are taught, and they believe that there are only three ways to deal with the kafir, the infidels: Convert them, Enslave them, or Kill them. There is no in between ground on this one, folks. I don’t like the choices. So, I’ll choose freedom. Freedom from their antiquated mindset and false belief system that has been responsible for the majority of international unrest in the past 25 years or more. Freedom from their enforced conversion to a pagan cult that abhors free choice and free will.

Lock and Load.

Have they decided that the War on Terror is lost in the Philippines?

I don’t have a problem with them learning Arabic. That’s very useful these days (if you work for the government). Learning Muslim “values”? That I have a problem with. Enough with the religion of peace PC crap. It’s time we told the truth.
