And Islam promises its followers that
those who become suicide bombers, killing themselves and others, will
go directly to Allah's paradise where they will be given 72 virgins
for unbridled sexual pleasure for all of eternity.
There are many verses in the Koran that must be memorized in this
Public School course and students are taught to pray, "in the name of
Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful" and to chant, "Praise to
Allah, Lord of Creation."
There are 25 Islamic terms that must be memorized, six Islamic
(Arabic) phrases, 20 Islamic Proverbs to learn along with the Five
Pillars of Faith and 10 key Islamic prophets and disciples to be
studied.
"Can you imagine the barrage of lawsuits and problems we would have
from the ACLU if Christianity were taught in the public schools, and
if we tried to teach about the contributions of Matthew, Mark, Luke,
John and the Apostle Paul?" teacher Elizabeth Lemings lamented. "But
when it comes to furthering the Islamic religion in the public
schools, there is not one word from the ACLU, People For The American
Way or anybody else. This is hypocrisy!"
Even more disturbing; students are to pretend that they are
Muslims, wear Muslim clothing to school, stage their own Jihad via a
dice game, and pick out a Muslim name (to replace their own) from a
list of thirty.
ANS asked some of the students what they thought about this course.
All of them felt that "it was fun," while others described Islam as "a
pretty culture." This included a pastor's son! Joseph Lemings, 12,
said, "the Jihad was like playing a video game," even though the true
violent nature of Jihad was well concealed.
Lemings is disturbed by the "fun" description. She sees it as a
tool, not only to engender sympathy and support for the Muslim cause,
but for recruitment. "This is not just a class of history of examining
culture," she said. "This course is entirely too specific. It is more
about indoctrination."
Lemings, upon learning of the course on Islam, approached the
principal of Intermediate-Excelsior School of Byron, Nancy Castro,
requesting the right to teach Christianity in the manner that Islam is
taught and for the same length of time.
Castro has not responded to her request. Lemings later received,
roundabout, information that the only way she could do this would be
to teach the Christianity class (as a Christian Club) after school
hours where students would come of their own accord. Otherwise, she
would violate the law of (selective) Separation of Church and State.
Excuse me?
In an interview with Nancy Castro, the principal of the schools in
Byron, she stated to ANS that the Islam course (hidden within "History
of Cultures") reflects California (educational) Standards that meet
State requirements.
When asked about the intensity of the Islamic course, Castro stated
that the course "is not religion, but Ancient Culture and History.
And," she pointed out, "the text is a State Adopted textbook. We do
not endorse any religion, we just make students aware."
She stated that the textbook is now in use throughout California.
When asked if she would allow Christianity to be taught the same way
that Islam is taught, Castro stammered before saying that Christianity
is already taught in the History and Culture class, "which," she said,
"actually starts in the 6th grade."
She said that this class started a year ago. The Christianity that
is taught is brief, taught as a myth, and strictly negative. This is
how it is portrayed in the textbook.
Lemings had stated to ANS that there were many, many parents who
protested this course on Islam, especially after September 11th (
which, coincidently, is when the course began).. Nancy Castro
contradicted this account.
Asked if there was any response from parents about this course,
Castro answered, "Oh a couple of parents called to express concerns,
three to be exact."
Peggy Green, Superintendent of the Byron Union School District did
not return calls by press time.
The Muslim's intentions are clear and the public has been
continually notified of that fact. In nearby Fremont, where the
majority of the over 150,000 Muslims living in the Bay Area reside,
Omar M. Ahmad, chairman of the board of the Council on
American-Islamic relations said this at the Flamingo Palace banquet
hall: "I urge Muslims not to shirk their duty of sharing the Islamic
faith with those who are on the 'wrong-side'."
He said that Muslims should not assimilate into American society.
"If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the
message of Islam, Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other
faith, but to become dominant. The Koran should be the highest
authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth,"
he said. These quotes were published in the" San Ramon Valley Herald"
on July 4, 1998 (ironically on our Independence Day), 3 years, 2
months and 7 days before September 11, 2001. And like everything else,
Americans and church leaders didn't pay any attention to it. In the
same article, Ahmad stated: "Everything we need to know is in the
Koran." And bear in mind that the Koran clearly states that Muslims
are obligated to kill Christians, Jews and all other infidels.
So why would the American Public School System and the politicians
want to further the Islamic faith, push to have it become the One
World Religion and nix Christianity?
Simple. Christians cannot be enslaved. Islam, an oppressive
religion of control, cruelty and fear does enslave, which can keep
people subdued. This is precisely what the future leaders of the One
World Order want to achieve. And the misinformed, make nice,
politically correct crowd seem eager to help them accomplish it.
But the greatest driving factor in all of this is money. There are
the profiteers and politicians who stand to grow in unspeakable wealth
and power by cooperating with the Arabs and finding favor by helping
them and their pagan religion take control. They have no compunction
in selling us out, and our freedom, to accomplish their goals. These
greedy, self-serving investors stand salivating on both sides of the
oil pump.
*********************
From Jen Shroder: I have hope and appeal to President
Bush and all politicians willing to help, please, return to us our
parental rights and religious freedom. The textbook discussed
has reigned in California since the beginning of Clinton's leadership.
I pray God impress upon President Bush and many more politicians to
right these incredible wrongs, and work to restore America to the
nation she once was.
