“This is just much too much!”
Politically correct = a double standard.
The title of the post is a line spoken by Maggie Smith’s character in the movie “Tea With Mussolini.” She had been dissapointed in Mussolini’s broken promises and treatment of herself and her companions in the war. I found myself repeating the same line after I read how John Klein, the Chancellor of NYC Public Schools (pictured) is planning on opening an all-Muslim public school. The school is due to open Sptember 4 of this year. The plans are being challenged, but what is he thinking?
Where is the ACLU in this? What about separation of Church and State? You can’t even display a Christmas creche in NYC public schools, yet they can open a Muslim public school? The scary part of it is who is on the advisory board for the proposed school. From the CNA article:
“Some of the school’s promoters have ties to questionable Islamic organizations, including the Council of American Islamic Relations. The group’s founder and chairman publicly stated in 1998: “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith but to become dominant. The Quaran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.”
Imam Talib Abdul-Rashid of the Mosque of Islamic Brotherhood is on the school’s advisory board. The Muslim Brotherhood website contains the ominous slogan: “The Qu’ran is our constitution/Jihad is our way/And death in the way of Allah is our promised end.” - Catholic News Agency
Let them start their own schools if they must - privately, like Catholics have done for decades.
