UK: Teacher fired for saying most suicide bombers are Muslims

"I feel it's very unjust," he said, and he's right. "Teacher sacked over religion row," by Andrew McLuskey for the BBC, with thanks to a tea-loving snail:

A supply teacher has been sacked from a secondary school following complaints from Muslim pupils.

Andrew McLuskey was sacked from Bayliss Court Secondary School in Slough after a Religious Education lesson discussing the pros and cons of religion.

Pupils at the predominantly Muslim school claimed Mr McLuskey said most suicide bombers were Muslim.

But he rejected the allegation and said the school was too quick to sack him without giving him right of reply.

"Very unjust"

He expected to complete an eight week contract at the school - but was sacked after only several days.

"I feel it's very unjust," he said.

"I think I should've been given the chance to respond to the allegations and not in effect be ejected from a job without the chance to defend myself."

The school authorities denied they were being heavy-handed and said their first priority was pupils' welfare.

But not truth, evidently.

This is the chance for the people to take to the streets in protest.

If they don't do something about this, like a very visual protest, they will be lost.

'most suicide bombers were Muslim.'

What would have been the result of saying 'most suicide bombers were MARTYRS'?

"It's what the pupils think that were in the classroom at the time. And they were very upset."

Truth hurts.

I guess 1280 ad is before the founding of the State of Israel and the Cartoons, yes? From wiki:

In 1280,[3] the Jewish philosopher Ibn Kammuna criticized Islam in his book Examination of the Three Faiths. Ibn Kammuna wrote that Muslim rulers habitually violate the provisions of the Islamic law (sharia) because "[i]f the provisions of Islam were acted upon without any alteration, the regime would be upset, and people's blood would be spilled unjustly. This is no secret to anyone acquainted with Muslim jurisprudence and with the evil and corruption the people sink into." He reasoned that this incompatibility of sharia with the principles of justice undercuts Muhammad's claims of being a perfect man: "there is no proof that Muhammad attained perfection and the ability to perfect others as claimed". The philosopher thus concluded that people usually convert to Islam from ulterior motives:

That is why, to this day we never see anyone converting to Islam unless in terror, or in quest of power, or to avoid heavy taxation, or to escape humiliation, or if taken prisoner, or because of infatuation with a Muslim woman, or for some similar reason. Nor do we see a respected, wealthy, and pious non-Muslim well versed in both his faith and that of Islam, going over to the Islamic faith without some of the aforementioned or similar motives.[4]

In 1284, the news about Ibn Kammuna's book reached the Muslims of Baghdad. The chronicler Fuwati described the events that followed: "The infuriated mob rioted, and massed to attack his house and to kill him." The local emir and the supreme judge arrived at the scene. "The amir stepped out to calm the crowds but these showered abuse upon him and accused him of being on the side of Ibn Kammuna, and of defending him. Then, upon the amir's order, it was heralded in Baghdad that, early the following morning outside the city wall, Ibn Kammuna would be burned." The crowd dispersed, and Ibn Kammuna was smuggled out of Baghdad to his son in Hilla.[5]

I hope he has got proof to back up his theories.

COUGH !

Mr McLuskey got it wrong. All suicide bombers are muslims. If you can't teach kids the truth then why bother.
Close the school down and turn it into a mosque. They can then teach the kids the "Religion of Peace"

Hopefully Mr McLuskey can get a job teaching kids who want to be educated, not indoctrinated.

When I first checked the BBC article, yesterday, the headline was 'Teacher sacked over race row'. Of course, it's the objecting and objectionable pupils who should be sacked.

And don't you just love the comments of deputy head teacher Ray Hinds: "I don't think it's important what I think," Oh bravo, fearless leader.

The BBC reporter is Paraic O’Brien. Mr McLuskey is the teacher. Paraic O'Brien's sympathies are definitely with the teacher who was not treated in accordance with proper employment policy at all. As he says at the end of the video report, 12 year olds do not dictate employment policy.

Boy,, I am glad I don't live in the UK, but scared it will happen here in OZ sooner rather than later!

Dear Granny Weatheraxe

Yes, it was good to see the BBC interviewer being sympathetic to Mr McLuskey, refreshing.

Does anyone know why they had to interview the deputy head teacher, not the head?
That deputy head looked right nasty, a sort of black version of Herr Flik out of 'Allo, allo', justs shows that political correctness is an inverted form of nazism.

Elephant, I don't know for definite, but their taking on supply teacher(s)mid term, and the decision to hire and fire taken by the deputy head, would suggest a high turnover of staff and a lot of sick leave. The figures for stress related illness and early retirement among head teachers explain why recruitment is so difficult. And what a mature experienced man like Mr McLuskey (an ex NUT organiser) is doing short term supply teaching instead of running a form.

I saw this on the local news here in England. It is I think quite funny the teacher in question described himself as "A Guardian reading liberal".
It is because of people like him that we have crazy attitudes like this in the UK. He almost certainly voted Lib Dem/Labour parties that support this sort of thing.
Sorry but if someone creates a monster and it bites him.

"I don't think it's important what I think," said the school's deputy head teacher Ray Hinds. "It's what the pupils think that were in the classroom at the time. And they were very upset."

The liberal agrees with the radical Moslem. Why should we blame the Moslems for these thousand of global incidents? Such blame will upset a Moslem child. This would be dissonance between mosque and school. The cognitive dissonance created between what is taught at the mosque from school is tied up in the fact that the immam has taught that killing infidels to achieve worldwide sharia is the work of allah and not a terror activity. So how dare this teacher say Moslems are committing terrorism. There is no terrorism here. All the incidents accounted for at the religion of peace.com are just religious activities!

This is how an Immam can say with a straight face there is no terrorism in Islam. The bugger actually believes it! Anyone who questions this or equates the thousands of abominable activities worldwide as terrorism is just Islamophobic. Jihadis are to be understood by Moslems as freedom fighters for Islam to establish sharia worldwide. The infidels of the West must take a stand. Either the end of Islam or start burying hard copies of books of our civilization deep underground to be found perhaps several thousand years from now when they may be of use.

"A supply teacher has been sacked from a secondary school following complaints from Muslim pupils."

Isn't the real hate, felt by these students?

Shouldn't they be expelled? Deported? Will one of them grow up to be a jihadi? A classmate?

Is someone arriving in the UK now from Pakistan or Saudi Arabia who will be a jihadi?

Turkey was once all non-Turk. Now its 99 percent Turk. By law in Turkey, you can't say why or how. That is considered an insult to Turkish national identity.


Christians and Jews in Turkey in 20th Century

"“Talaat Bey, the Minister of the Interior, has stated to the Councillor of the Greek Patriarchate that in Turkey henceforth there will be room only for Turks. While he was profuse in assurance to the Greek Minister regarding the cessation of anti- Greek persecutions, no real amelioration of the situation is perceptible.”"

Will England one day be all Muslim? Will it be renamed as Turkey was?

In a few more years, will we hear:

"In ?land henceforth there will be room only for Muslims."

Whose Ambassador will be told that? What country will speak up for the English then?

Are these students marking their territory? Isn't this the same as the Hrant Dink case?

Wasn't this an insult to Muslim identity in ?land?

Old Atlantic

That seems to be the future. Just look at what happened in other countries. Why can't the leaders see it?

If most suicide bombers aren't muslim, then what religion are they?

two simple questions with follow ups:
1) were ALL the students in the class Muslim? If not, what did the non-Muslims think? Very upset too? In agreement with teacher? Their freedom of speech curtailed?

2) Is the Teachers' Union on the case? On whose side?

Some very enlightening details bout the school concerned:

http://www.bnp.org.uk/reg_showarticle.php?contentID=1914

See the problems we have with Islam in the UK?

Our elites are going to be called to account for allowing this situation to arise. Please try imagining what it must be like for the Brit kids, the Indians, the others, in that school. Especially given the recent news about the hammer attack on Henry Webster in the school at Wroughton, Wiltshire, where the Muzbots are very much a minority.

What do our kids think of us for putting them in this situation? I've asked a couple of them: they think their adults are on the side of the Muzbots - and they are decidedly unhappy about it.

Muslims (young and old) simply can't stand hearing the truth.

The level of deceit and propaganda is entrenched in Muslim education.

The majority of Muslims are simply brainwashed and can't look objectively at the world.

Suicide bombers are simply non-existent in other religions besides Islam.

But don't tell that to the Muslims. They will intimidate you.

Check out this website:
http://victimsofallah.blogspot.com/

This is the second time I've seen this article headlined as "Teacher fired for saying most suicide bombers are Muslims".

For the sake of the facts, ket's look at the wording of the article again :

"Pupils at the predominantly Muslim school claimed Mr McLuskey said most suicide bombers were Muslim."

The pupils 'claimed' he said this.


"But he rejected the allegation and said the school was too quick to sack him without giving him right of reply."

He then 'rejected' the allegation. On the face of things McCluskey is saying that he didn't say this.

Now there is obviously something sinister about this debacle, but from the wording of the report it doesn't amount to his "Telling them the truth and they just don't like it".

Seriously. I'd very much like to hear his version of what he 'actually' said, because if he's been sacked on the basis of an unfounded 'claim' by the pupils then this raises questions quite different to those I've seen answered so far on this matter.

He should sue , he is bound to win .

Dane:

When I first checked the BBC article, yesterday, the headline was 'Teacher sacked over race row'. Of course, it's the objecting and objectionable pupils who should be sacked.

Yes Dane when i first read this article the headline read:

"Supply teacher sacked in race row"


Looks like the BBC may have "updated" the page more than once.

UK: Teacher fired for saying most suicide bombers are Muslims

Political correctness in its most pristine form! Or maybe this is just another symptom of an oppressed people (suicide bombing)?? NOT.

The teacher needs to produce the factual evidence to support his/her statement. The claim that 'most suicide bombers are muslim' can be proven/disproven by statistical analyis ( i.e. tallying the numbers)

If the statement can be proven factual then I would suggest the fired teacher go after the leaders and institutions who fired him and extract some concessions. Make them pay for the willful ignorance now and it will save blood, lives and treasure later.

I think the Muslim students baited him/her by 'innocently' asking, "Are most suicide bombers Muslim?" or something in that vein.

How much will it take before all hell must break loose? How much will it take before this insanity is brought to a screeching halt? If this carries on, then your local fascist party, the BNP will exploit this, and finally do what they've wanted to do in your country for a long time. I don't know what's worse for other non-British minorities, the threat of living under shariah or the threat of being kicked out by white supremists.

This can very well happen in America too.

Slough is a very populated Muslim area and a socially troubled spot. I bet the students were of a Muslim origin it's just a guess.

Most Nazi's were German.
Most Black people were Slaves.
More Russians soldiers died than Jews in WW2.
America built the atomic bomb.
9/11 was probably done by Muslims.
Most of the world’s terrorists are of Muslim origin.
Jesus is known as the Son of God.
JESUS...CROSS...(all been as offensive to show or say)

Are simple facts not allowed to be said? Are people turning into the spirit of Islam that you shall not offend or you will be punished? What is wrong with people these days, Political Correctness is a cover up of facts. They make such a fuss about the profiling of Muslims in this climate of international tensions at airports that the people in charge may as well check all the staff that do the profiling to be equally justified to what they are doing. It's like a fox killing your sheep, but you check the Chickens to see if they’re any evidence of them eating your sheep.

If you see what is happening I think God is letting the gates of Evil to do their work so that God will separate the good sheep from the goats because really by doing this he will get more sheep in return because as the ignorant blind are leading people astray the open minded will wake up. But this is from a spiritual point of view.

Truth will set you free. Apparently this teacher was set free.

ALL suicide bombers are Muslim.

England is living in Orwell's "1984" in which the truth cannot be spoken. Orwell's "Ministry of Truth" is where history is re-written and so is really a Ministry of Lies.

Orwell's prescience concerning the future England is amazing. England, because of Muslim immigration and Political Correctness (lies), is truly a "1984" country now.

England is a shameful shadow of its former self.

jesusisthelamb

If you'd followed the link on my earlier comment you'd know that in that school, 57.7% of the kids are Muzbots.

Darcy

Not all suicide bombers are Muzbots - the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE, in Sri Lanka) also do it.

But the overwhelming majority are Muzbots. The teacher was factually correct.

You can bet most Brit muslims believe suicide attacks were perpetrated by 'the Jews'.

The UK is aiding in its own destruction by putting up with Moslem demands, complaints, and continued immigration.

Moslem pupils should be made to conform to the host country not the other way around.

When there was all that trouble over a Muslim run dairy in Windsor setting up a mosque at the end of last year, Muslim youths from Slough travelled over to lend a hand in confrontations with the locals.

"Christians are the victims of worldwide persecution .."
"Secular Western governments, intellectuals and media organisations have played down the bloodbath because the persecution of Jews and Muslims, whether in the former Soviet Union or former Yugoslavia, was considered more newsworthy."
"The global persecution of Christianity is still in progress but in most cases is ignored by the mass media and Christians in the West."

-from Sir Henry

The smarter of these kids will realize that they will have to protect themselves and seek the truth themselves. They will not find either truth or reverance for their ideals at the hand of their elders who are sniveling cowards. May God bless them and hopefully they will find amongst them a Churchill and their youth giving them the courage to pursue the rebellion against
the lame establishment. May they be the intellectual guiding light for the working class Brits who must take it upon themselves to dethrone
the lame who control the power and to take the Islamic Death cult head on.

If this article doesn't portray the fact that British Clulure is on its deathbed, I don't lnow what will.

WallyUK:

And did not the native British youth take them on?

muslims have always scared me, i had a recent conversation with my brother, he used to be BNP. he asked why i was always angry about the islamic threat and stated that i must have some internal psycological problem. and you know what he is right. when i was about 9-10 years old, i watched a program, and this scary non looking english bloke was on english t.v. claiming that muslims will one day claim secessionism from the UK. but the thing that has really, i guess, messed me up is the fact that all british school kids are taught that the UK has never been successfully invaded since 1066 by King William the Norman. so what i want to know is, what's happening in the UK now? and if this is an invasion, then what are we gonna do about it?

but answering the post, i guess the only way we can reverse this is by throwing it back in their faces, ie claiming reverse racism, anti-christianity, using our liberal court system (though they are against us) and just reporting all islamic threats be it on the main stream media or what we witness on the streets. im sure that if that teacher grew some balls and stated that he was physically abused by all the kids and he will go to the cops, press then im sure he'd have at least another teaching job somewhere else. my favourite response to anyones complaints is ( has anyone seen sexy beast and don is kicked off the plane) well use that, works a treat each time. grow some balls people. we are fighting pussies at the end of the day.

Dsinc, McLuskey is right and you are wrong. Not all suicide bombers are muslims. Sikh suicide bombers, for example, killed Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi. The first female suicde bomber was a Vietnamese who exploded on a French ship in the 1950s.

I may be a little paranoid but it struck me that the BBC may have been used as a Da'wa tool via the highly popular "Muzzy in Gondoland" English language learning series. It makes children believe that Muzzies BELONG to Gondoland, ie the UK.

"Muzzy in Gondoland "
Muzzy in Gondoland is a cartoon adventure for children that makes learning English fun. Big Muzzy is a green monster from outer space who arrives in Gondoland and meets Bob, the Royal gardener, Princess Sylvia and the king's evil adviser, Corvax.

You have got to be kidding me. A green monster called "Muzzy"????

"England is living in Orwell's "1984" in which the truth cannot be spoken. Orwell's "Ministry of Truth" is where history is re-written and so is really a Ministry of Lies.

Orwell's prescience concerning the future England is amazing. England, because of Muslim immigration and Political Correctness (lies), is truly a "1984" country now.

And 2 + 2 = 5.

The truth cannot be spoken? See the thread on JW today about three plain-speaking articles/reviews in the Observer yesterday, including a review of Robert's book. Even the left are speaking the truth, it seems.

The true Brits, (non Muslim ones) are waiting for our new leader, someone with the guts to save our country. Get rid of a few junk laws (human rights, immigration, asylum, social security for non Brits, EU control etc') and bring in a few new ones such as repatriation, mosque banning, re-establishment of British Culture and way of life.

When we have such a political party, watch out, there will be some changes around here, Muslims will be going home!!

defender of the realm, not being critical of you just gonna state that if your party ever got into power then the EU, as they did with Austria, will boycott and place heavy political and economic pressure on the UK to force a change of government to which they see as toeing their party line. democracy doesn't exist in europe.

Muslims hate the truth....

Haha! I am from Slough and felt first hand what is happening there.

Funnily enough my friend still lives in Slough in the same road a load of Hindus got arrested for hoarding fertilizer and explosive mechanisms...

Oh silly me they were Muslims!

Slough is like an outer London Bradford or Birmingham.

Most? More like all.

Here is the opposite end of the story, just like to say that according to these two Islamic and school scenarios one is sacked for being technically true about facts the other is sacked for wanting to do things right but when you combine Islam and education your heads role.
'Oh' what was used at this school is a little more barbaric than saying mainly Muslims are suicide bombers because that is shameful to admit and Christians are 'pigs' is right. But then again it might be in the Koran so they are technically religiously right. But technically this is not democratic to this society and separatist to society they live in.

Mr Cook claims he was sacked after he reported pupils cheating to exams board Edexcel.
"It was unlawful to sack me for whistle-blowing in these circumstances. A Saudi national would not have been treated in this adverse manner."

--------------------------------------------------
An Islamic school is poisoning the minds of pupils with lessons in hate, a former teacher claims.

Colin Cook, 57, says textbooks used by children as young as five at the King Fahad Academy in Acton describe Jews as "repugnant" and "apes" and Christians as "pigs".

Pupils have allegedly been heard saying they want to "kill Americans", praising 9/11 and idolising Osama bin Laden as their "hero".

There are fears that it could become a breeding ground for terrorists with Mr Cook warning: "The school could produce a dangerous harvest."

Its sister school of the same name in Bonn has been singled out by the German intelligence services as a meeting place for activists linked to terrorism.

Mr Cook, a Muslim convert, taught English at the school for 19 years until he was sacked in December last year.

He claims he was fired after blowing the whistle on the school for covering up cheating by children in GCSE exams and is bringing a tribunal claim for unfair dismissal, race discrimination and victimisation.

He also alleges that when he complained to school management about the content of the curriculum and questioned whether it complied with British laws, he was told: "This is not England. It is Saudi Arabia".

He said that the school was "very good" until the majority of British teachers left in 2005. He said: "Since then, there has been a move towards a pro-Saudi agenda.

"It is clearly racist and very divisive. I understand now why the pupils express anti-Western views at school. It is deeply immoral to put such ideas into the heads of young children.

Mr Cook's solicitor Lawrence Davies said: "Faith schools are legitimate but they must not be used to propagate a racist agenda. Every faith school must be properly inspected. And those that promote the terrorist mindset must be called to account."

Mr Cook, a father of three, was earning £35,000 a year and is seeking £100,000 in compensation.

The school denies all his allegations and claims he was rightly dismissed for misconduct. Opened in 1985 for the offspring of Saudi diplomats in London, it is named after the former Saudi king and funded by that country's government.

But the overwhelming majority of its 750 pupils are now the children of British Muslims. The school - which teaches pupils up to the age of 18 - devotes around half of lessons to religious education and teaches almost all classes in Arabic, with boys and girls following different curriculums.

In the past, parents have claimed that the school is teaching British children fundamentalist Islam while giving girls an inferior education.

Ofsted, which inspected the school in March 2006, made a series of criticisms of its performance and refused to give it full registration as an independent school.

It warned that while the quality of teaching was good, there had been "major changes in staffing" which led to disruption, and told the school to improve the curriculum.

In papers submitted to Watford employment tribunal, Mr Cook says that most of the school's teachers are Saudis who speak little or no English.

Mr Cook's lessons formed part of a British curriculum while a second Saudi curriculum was taught in Arabic. Mr Cooks claims that textbooks used on the Saudi curriculum, which are published by the Saudi government's ministry of education, prove that the academy "is institutionally racist".

He said: "The textbooks apparently state that the Jews are cursed. Pupils are asked to ' mention some repugnant characteristics of Jews'."

Mr Cook said pupils are taught that religions including Christianity and Judaism are "worthless". He said: "The teachers on the Saudi curriculum presumably either endorse this racist viewpoint or teach it without complaint."

(how were there teachers influenced I bet it was that Chineese religion)

Mr Cook claims he was sacked after he reported pupils cheating to exams board Edexcel. He said that staff allowed pupils to refer to their own, heavily annotated course books during an English language GCSE exam.

(Were they desperate to learn English was it not taught enough there?)

He said: "The Academy knows that cheating occurred. The boys who did cheat and those who probably cheated were not investigated or sanctioned.î Mr Cook was fired in December after being accused of gross misconduct.

(were they taught somewhere to lie to your enemies)

He said: "It was unlawful to sack me for whistle-blowing in these circumstances. A Saudi national would not have been treated in this adverse manner."

(It would have been politically inncorect to have accused a Muslim)

The school claims that Mr Cook was rightly dismissed for misconduct connected to the exams procedure. His tribunal is due to take place later this year.

(It was Mr.Cooks fault the infedel.)

This checking the chickens has proved wanted criminals have used people's weakness of political correctness profiling in fear of complaints. So here for example is the result.
http://www.express.co.uk/news_detail.html?sku=921

'Hours after the Daily Express exposed how a police killer fled the UK disguised as a Muslim woman, the Home Office admitted there is no automatic check on those in full-face niqabs.'

It does not mean it will go on forever it's just right now in this time in history it is a must.
I like how they check me out at airports and my 70 year family members of true European decent but are too politically correct minded to dare touch a Muslim covered up with only eyes to see according to this story. But who knows maybe I don't know every story but this makes an exaple to ponder.

Rolling On The Floor Laughing

Oh I get it. Sorry Allat, yes my creativity is a bit of humour mixed with madness hope it brightens up the place anyway. This notion of chickens also applies to everything in life and society for being blind about the obvious for the sake not being called racist or something like that.
