US: Critics Want Probe of Islamic School in Virginia

" Sen. Charles E. Schumer, New York Democrat, has asked the Justice Department to investigate the school, saying that Abu Ali is not the only former academy student to engage in questionable activities."

I like Schumer's work against radical islam, I just wish he would take another look at the 2nd Amendment. As long as he is trying to disarm law-abiding citizens, I can't support him completely.

Things seem to be heating up a little.

If the investigation comes up empty these madras schools will proliferate.

I really don't care how they come up with evidence, I want those schools gone over with a fine toothed comb. You can bet there's a whole bunch of sanitizing going on even as we read these reports.

Schumer knows something or he wouldn'r risk this kind of investigation. Pray the place stinks with hate literature. If this investigation comes up with a posative, others in the Senate and the Congress will jump on the band wagon and a whole new ball game begins.

Hate the Jews literature has got be in every Koran in the place. It's in the free Korans being given out by CAIR, and as far as I'm concerned that alone should put it over the top.

Misconceptions....ah yes. Of course, out of context, misconceptions, ignorance of Islam, we hear it all, and the tune never seems to change, does it?

O'Reilly reported on this school a few months ago. It's about time that the squeeze is put on these intruders of our nation. They contribute nothing. The sooner this Islamic pit of hatred is closed, the better off the country will be.

DC Watson posted: They contribute nothing.

That is just not true. In Britain, some 34% of Bangladeshis are unemployed. They are thus, all on welfare. Without muslims, the welfare allocation by government would not be taken up. Moreover, tens of thousands of social and welfare workers would be out of a job.

Then think of all the police and security personnel in the nation, and at airports, who would be unemployed. Not only out of a job but they would feel humiliated and unwanted.

NO. We need these people from the madrassas, not just for the above reasons, but so we can learn to show proper respect to them and the one single book they have.

I'm probably too late in my comment, but maybe somebody will read it. The following information, which may now be archived, is from

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/04/20/AR2005042002766.html :

In yesterday's crash of the private school bus, the driver, Abdelrazeg Abdalla, 31, of Falls Church, was charged with several counts, including operating the Islamic Saudi Academy bus on a suspended license.
Investigators said Abdalla's driving privileges had been suspended at 12:01 a.m. yesterday because of insurance-related issues. He was fired by school administrators shortly after the charges -- including citations for reckless driving and driving a vehicle with faulty equipment -- were issued....
The chain-reaction crash, in which two other drivers sustained minor injuries, occurred as the school bus ferrying students to the Islamic Saudi Academy failed to stop as it traveled south down a hill on North Quaker Lane near Duke Street. The bus struck a Honda Civic, causing a chain-reaction crash involving the bus and three cars....
Kovilik said Abdalla was hired as a driver in August after a comprehensive background check that he said included a search for any past convictions and "points on his license."
But a check of court records in Virginia revealed seven past charges, including several traffic violations for speeding and crossing a double yellow line. Several of the charges had been dismissed.
Abdalla also had a misdemeanor conviction in Fairfax for abducting his estranged wife and 3-month-old daughter at knifepoint. He had originally been charged with felony kidnapping, but friends and family -- including his wife -- wrote letters of support to the court on Abdalla's behalf, and he agreed to plead guilty in May 2003, after nearly three months in jail, to a reduced charge of misdemeanor assault and battery.
After his release, Abdalla was picked up by Department of Homeland Security officials and detained for about six months, according to court records. It could not be determined why he was detained.
A phone number for Abdalla could not be found yesterday.
Kovilik said Abdalla's firing was based solely on his driving the school bus without a valid license. He said he was stunned by news that Abdalla had a court record.
"Oh no, no, no!" he said. "I'm going to revisit this."

1. Exactly what are the hiring practices of the Islamic Saudi Academy?
2. Are children and the general public endangered by the bus-fleet operations of the Islamic Saudi Academy?
3. What is the school-license status of the Islamic Saudi Academy?
4. Who are the friends who influenced the court to reduce the bus driver's previous charge of felony kidnapping to a misdemeanor?
5. Why is anyone ever detained by Homeland Security allowed to have the responsibility for transporting children? Not to mention the knife-point kidnapping charge?

The above is grounds enough to investigate ISA. I notified Sen. Schumer a few days after I obtained the above material.
