Thanks to Jimmy the lgfer who first alerted me to this salient detail about the valedictorian accused of plotting to kill President Bush. The school has been in the news before.
From AP
He attended the Islamic Saudi Academy and graduated as valedictorian.
The private school’s teachings have come under scrutiny since the Sept. 11 attacks. Federal court documents in a case against another academy graduate suspected of terrorism indicate that student discussions following Sept. 11 took an anti-American bent and that some students considered the attacks legitimate “payback” for American mistreatment of the Muslim world.Last year, the school also faced criticism for using textbooks that taught first-graders that Judaism and Christianity are false religions.
