Nigerian teacher flees Koran row

More tolerance and gentleness toward the dhimmis. From the BBC, with thanks to Belisarius:

A Christian teacher has gone into hiding in the northern Nigerian city of Kano after offending her Muslim pupils. During an economics class, the teacher reprimanded a teenage girl for not concentrating and threw the book she was reading onto the floor.

This outraged students as it was a part of the Koran, Islam's most holy book. Police arrived to calm their protests after all the school's teachers fled.

Earlier this year Kano was the scene of bloody anti-Christian riots.

In danger

Police remain on duty at the Ace Academy secondary school and will do so until the tension eases, Assistant Superintendent Baba Mohamed told the BBC.

The name of the teacher, who had only been working at the school for two weeks, is not being released by police.

They fear that if people knew where she was, her life would be in danger.

Compare this incident to what happened to Bibles during the siege at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher a few years back: the Muslims used them for toilet paper.


The Islamists have inflicted fear in many media workers here in Canada,a local radio show
had a host that was outraged by a alleged story from Iraq that U.S. soldiers entered a Mosque that was storing weapons,some Muslims claimed that pages of a Quran in the Mosque were torn out
by soldiers and tossed to the floor.
This same host remained mute on "Fat-boy" Sadr
waging war from a Mosque,the host had also avoided comment on the rash of beheadings by
those same oppressed Muslims in Iraq.
CAIR Canada uses the threat of protesting to the Government, or actual Muslim protests at businesses to censor or control the media by proxy. Islamophobe and Racist are the new catch words to inflict psychological terror on non-Muslims or groups that CAIR hates,while CAIR wants
AL-Jazeera satellite Arabic news,CAIR endorses the ban on FOXNEWS coming to Canada because of the pro-Zionist slant to the middle East news reports.

The idea that a building or book can be elevated
above the value of a human speaks volumes about
the warnings Jesus gave on Idolatry and Baal worshipping. If Muslim and Arabs are allowed to burn and spit on Bibles during protests at U.S. Embassy's in Canada,then why should I be forced to live in fear if I offend Muslims by ripping a page from the Quran or even put bacon strips between the pages. The idea that Muslim women wear the Hijab as a free-will decision is a farce,I have yet to see a Hijab wearer Muslim remove it to show they aren't forced to keep it on.

NO CAIR - KNOW FREEDOM

This is slightly off topic, but I was rather delinquent in cleaning my cat's litter nox over the weekend. To my surprise, there was a Koran sitting there amongst the cat turds.
