UK: Muslim parents suing Greek Orthodox school for banning hijab

"The school has a very particular uniform policy which is shared with parents...Her parents actively chose us and, before she arrived, we held a meeting which included details of the uniform plan....The parents actively sought our school. They must have done so with their eyes open."

Here again we see an attempt by Muslims to force non-Muslims to change the way they operate their institutions in order to accommodate Islamic law. There are numerous initiatives of this kind going on in the U.S., Britain and Europe, and their underlying goal is always the same: to establish and reinforce the principle that whenever Islamic law and Western law and custom conflict, it is Western law and custom that must give way.

"Muslim family taking Thornton Heath Greek Orthodox school to High Court over hijab ban," by Gareth Davies for the Croydon Advertiser, December 21 (thanks to Palamas):

A GREEK Orthodox school is being taken to the High Court for banning a Muslim pupil from wearing a headscarf.

The nine-year-old girl's parents were so incensed at the decision they have pulled her out of St Cyprian's Greek Orthodox Primary Academy, in Thornton Heath.

Now they have applied to the High Court in an attempt to force the school – the only one of its kind in the country – to reverse its ban on their daughter wearing a hijab.

The parents believe it would be a sin for her head to be uncovered because she has reached puberty and is in the presence of male teachers.

Head teacher Kate Magliocco said the uniform policy was made clear to the parents when the girl arrived in Year 3.

It was not until she moved into Year 5 in September that they wanted their daughter to start wearing a hijab, a traditional headscarf worn by Muslim women which represents the Islamic principle of modesty.

Her parents complained to the governing body, which upheld the ban with the support of the Archdiocese of Thyateira and Great Britain.

Mrs Magliocco said: "The school is being taken to the High Court by parents of a Muslim girl.

"They believe that, because she is nine, she has reached puberty and it would be a sin for her not to be covered because the school has male teachers.

"The decision not to allow her to wear a headscarf was taken by the governing body. The school has a very particular uniform policy which is shared with parents and, as head, I must follow the plan.

"The pupil in question came to us from a private school. Her parents actively chose us and, before she arrived, we held a meeting which included details of the uniform plan. We are the only Greek Orthodox Primary School in the whole country. The parents actively sought our school. They must have done so with their eyes open."...

Indeed they did.

The girl is growing up and may be getting a little too attractive...The fear is she will become irresistible to the kuffar male teachers, who may defile her purity by their wanton gazes, or worse...Recently a US court ruled an employer may fire an employee for being irresistible...
So it would not be unreasonable to protect the girl from all that with a headscarf or better, a burqa...

"They believe that, because she is nine, she has reached puberty ...." -- just like ...???

OK, Christmas quiz, folks! She's nine years old and was married off to a 7th Century used car salesman at the age if six.

Answers, answers .. I'll have to hurry you! :))

But as the adage goes, life's a tough teacher. It gives the test first, then the lesson.

Apparently the lesson - do not deal with Muslims - is just so very hard to learn.

Hypocrisy is a fundamental tactic on the left, and Islam is through-and-through of the left. "When I am the weaker, I ask you for mercy because that is your principle; but when I am the stronger, I show no mercy, because that is my principle."

I don't know why the parents are bothering. At nine, she's ready to be married off to Uncle Abdrool in the old country as his third wife, so she won't be in school much longer anyway.

I don't know why the parents are bothering. At nine, she's ready to be married off to Uncle Abdrool in the old country as his third wife, so she won't be in school much longer anyway.

OT. When I made my above comment about Abrdool's third wife, I began to wonder just how many Moslem men actually have more than one wife. Are there any reliable statistics on that? Is it more common in some Moslem countries, or among some Moslem ethnic groups, than in others?

It shows how degraded western culture has become that these muslims feel that they can force a Christian school to change it's dress code.
What is disturbing about all this is that in muslim subservient England,where this is taking place, they will probably get away with it.

There is no reason for a Muslim to be admitted to a private school, particularly one with a religious
affiliation. Kafirs smarten up! Muslims only join kafir organizations to cause trouble.

Parents of every Muslim student in western countries are instructed by the Islamic Dawa(Propagation)borad of thier Mosques to carry out Islamic Dawa in non Islamic schools. The parents are guided to force their children take up the matter with the school authorities by demanding inclusion of Islamic holidays,place for prayers,right to wear hijab,and formation of Muslim Union. Just go to this site http://www.dawanet.com/methods/publicschool.dawapublic.asp and see for youselves the rules for Muslim Parents to press for these rights in the schools.
http://www.dawanet.com/methods/publicschool.dawapublic.asp

Can any of the legal minds that post here explain due to the the circumstances described in this story, that the school cannot countersue for a frivolous lawsuit or something like that? It's past time these purposely pain in the butt muzz get some of theirs right back at them.

Go take a gander at dawanet. This is exactly the reason the USA, by proclamation and statute, should declare itself a secular state, free from all spiritual proselytism by anyone, period.

Targeting school age children, exactly as described in dawanet, should be a Class A felony. Spiritual religion, the supposition of a spirit world, is to be recognized as an inscribed hypothesis that has been with us for some sixty centuries without having manifested any evidence of validity or substantiation. Perhaps it should be presented as such in mandatory coursework in comparative religion in public education. If we are to be land of free choice, let it be informed choice.

Additionally, Islam itself, is to be specifically defined as a political entity whose existence and goals are inimical to the culture the West has developed and deserves to enjoy. I want codified into enforceable law that spiritual religion is ex-cathedra, and Islam is treason. And anyone and everyone who strives to coax our citizens to devote their political loyalty to an entity other our beloved country is to be prosecuted, perhaps under the Smith Act.

No more Mister Niceguy.

You gotta have a backbone to make such a declaration and stick with it. If you don't know where you're going in life (meaning having bedrock principles which will not be compromised), then any train will take you there.

France has made such a declaration, giving the resulting formulation the name laïcité.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La%C3%AFcit%C3%A9

Because the French are notorious for having no backbone, Islam is taking over France, laïcité or no laïcité.

no kidding!!!!!!!!!!

Useful link: DawaNet

The incessant agitation of pious Muslims -- Sharia Insistent Compliant (SIC) Muslims -- on all facets of a free society for free peoples mandates that the only wise solution is immediate expulsion.

Two points that came to mind as I read the story.

First, this. I think we have another definition for our Islamspeak dictionary.

'Puberty (of females)' in Islamspeak = 'having attained the age of nine (perhaps solar, but more likely lunar) years'.

(In infidelspeak, 'puberty (of females)' = 'having developed breasts, grown pubic and underarm hair etc, and established a menstrual cycle". )

From the article - 'The school is being taken to the High Court by parents of a Muslim girl.

"They believe that, because she is nine, she has reached puberty...".'

Reaching nine years = reaching 'puberty'. All those silly biological-development thresholds we infidels bother our heads about = irrelevant. If she's nine, she's a woman by definition, and old enough for wedding and bedding, because that was when Mohammed took Aisha to bed.

Second point. This is not the first time that I have come across a case of Muslim parents enrolling their daughter in a school established and run by Christians, a school whose uniform policy clearly states 'no Muslim headscarf' and which policy was clearly explained to the parents before their daughter's enrolment. This case in the UK, with Muslims sending their daughter to a Greek Orthodox school and then kicking up a stink because the school - as it had firmly stated upfront -forbids the wearing of the Islamic Slave Hood, exactly mirrors a similar case in the **Philippines**, where Muslim parents enrolled their girl in a *Catholic* school which had an identical uniform policy.

Right now it's 7.20 on Christmas morning, and I don't have time to flick through my 'Philippines' file, but when I get back from church, and after I have opened my presents, I will do just that, and provide the link for the Filipino case.

Muslims are so dismally similar and so dismally predictable in their attempts to bend us all to their will.


The word "modesty" must be replaced. It has a positive ring to it (nothing wrong with a degree of modesty), but putting a headscarf on a child to flaunt her status as a marriage-age woman under wraps, under control, does not equal "modesty". It is something much more sinister.
Any ideas? We need to send these journalists some tips about reporting on Muslim mischief.

Brinkmanship, that's it. Check how far you can go, that's their policy.

2008, a gay fashion show in Amsterdam. One of the models was dragged from the catwalk and brutally assaulted and needed to be hospitalised. His comment: It's good that people pay attention now, it had to happen.

2008, a group of mahoundians went to a mountain hotel in the Vosges (mountains in the east of France). Two of them were fully veiled. The landlady objected, as children and old people could be frightened, to no avail. She was accused of racism and had to pay a fine. Now full veils and burqas are banned in France. But it didn't really help her at that point in time.

Wherever you go in Europe you're confronted with Islam. Admittedly there are countries where you don't find mahoundians, the Czech republic for example.But these are exceptions. Europe is infested with the Islamic virus. European politicians like to accomodate mahoundians and their stooges in Europe.

Ah! England needs a Churchill right now, not the crop of dhimmis that appear on the political landscape. Arise, arise, Englishmen, and crush these islamic virmin.

UK: Muslim parents suing Greek Orthodox school for banning hijab

Here again we see an attempt by Muslims to force non-Muslims to change the way they operate their institutions in order to accommodate Islamic law.
.............................

Yes. And they didn't let on over the last two years that this is what they intended to do as soon as their daughter "reched puberty".

And—as others have already noted, "puberty" here is *nine*.

Do I believe that this little 5th grader has actually reached puberty in any measurable manner? I do not. When puberty occurs at nine it is both rare and a serious medical condition.

This is not about maturation—this is all about the perversity of Islam.

And note their grotesque implication that the Infidel male teachers are apt to become attracted to a *nine-year-old child*. This is something Muslims do—*not* healthy Infidels.

Here's a sick quote from a pious Muslim, one Al Jibali:

"By the age of ten, it becomes an obligation on us to force her to wear Hijab, and if she doesn't wear Hijab we hit her".

Do these vile Muslim parents expect the school to apply this kind of enforcement?

And their imposing Shari'ah on a Greek Orthodox school might give them an extra frisson of supremacy—even over that of any other Infidel—since Greece was under the Mohammedan boot for *centuries*, and Muslims have always wanted to reconquer her—just like with Spain and the Balkans.

More:

The nine-year-old girl's parents were so incensed at the decision they have pulled her out of St Cyprian's Greek Orthodox Primary Academy, in Thornton Heath.
.............................

If that were the end of it, the school might consider themselves lucky. But of course, with Muslim supremacy, it's never over...

I don't understand how a PRIVATE SCHOOL can be forced to accept someone whom they obviously wouldn't want and who would so obviously not fit in never mind not wanting to be forced to accept a student a student refusing to wear uniform attire required by the school. What is it I am not getting?

And Merry Christmas to the other Aussie and Kiwi JW readers.

It's still Christmas Eve here in the US, and I'm making traditional Christmas Eve tamales.

A nine year old whose reached puberty, lucky for her the messenger of islam is no longer hanging around !

Don't know about UK laws, but if something like this occurred in the U.S and the muslims won, it would set precedent; at least in the district where it happened.

With the current wave happening across the entire world, muslims having everything go their way, we can expect them to win with this.

It seems ridiculous at first glance that a religious school would accept a student of another religion. What happened to the rule of becoming a member of a religion in order to attend a religious school? Answer: islam and its rule of everybody bow to our false god.

correction: bow to THEIR (muslims) false god.

And it is just so evil to say a nine year-old child needs to cover up. Projection of muslim male thinking onto the men of the infidel.

Pedophilia is just so very evil and ugly.

Unfortunately, many people do not believe in educational freedom. Particularly teachers' unions and state education bureaucrats. As far as they are concerned, only rich families should have the freedom to choose a non-state a.k.a. independent school. Poor families and their children can either serve the state education powers, or go to hell.

The whole concept we in the U.S. have of State "school boards" voting on the content and structure of education is a majoritarian approach that should have no place in the way people create curricula and schools. We don't vote on what newspapers we can read or what religious views we have. We shouldn't be voting on an intellectual and cultural matter like education, either. It should be a matter of parental choice. Unless the State can show a "compelling justification" for intervening in the school system -- for example, imposition of health and safety laws would be a reasonable intervention, as would outlawing any teaching to children of racism -- but apart from those two exceptions, the State should stick its nose out of the content of education, and restrict itself to making sure every family can afford a reasonably priced tuition. The First Amendment's freedom of expression threatens to become a sham if the State controls formation of belief.

Of course, Islam presents a huge conundrum for free societies, and thus makes the above idea problematic too. Islam shelters its totalitarian political goals inside of a religion, and thus in the U.S. it becomes difficult to restrict Islam's totalitarian ambitions. In a school system less controlled by the State, more Islamic children would be indoctrinated in Islam, and to varying degrees would be taught totalitarianism and supremacism. But the fact that Islam has means to infiltrate open social systems and slowly transform them into closed systems is no reason for us to cooperate in the suppression of fundamental freedoms. Educational freedom -- apart from the "compelling justification" exceptions mentioned above -- should be permitted, and let the chips fall where they may -- again, with the exception of the compelling justifications mentioned above.

One sees all the time how, even where the state system if utterly failing, some hypocrite politician refuses to allow school choice, especially if it includes independent, non-state schools, and yet sends his own children to such schools, because he can afford to do it. As far as he's concerned, poor and middle class families can go to hell. When it comes to the First Amendment, he doesn't care if the freedom of expression of belief is made a sham because State officials and State school boards control the formation of belief.

The fact that we in the U.S. call state schools "public," and independent schools "private," is a travesty of language and benefits only the criminals who run the teachers' unions. And as far as I'm concerned they are criminals, because they sacrifice children's healthy development in order to maintain as much political and economic power for themselves as possible.

In my 1:01 pm comment, second to last paragraph, the words, "if utterly failing", should read "is utterly failing".

...............................

Actually, somehistory, I went to an Episcopal school in the mid-1960s, and we had a couple of Jewish kids attending. The only difference was that the Jewish kids didn't observe morning chapel—they spend that time in the library.

After the school closed—the only Episcopal school in San Francisco at the time—we considered Catholic schools, and were warmly welcomed although we were not Catholic.

I believe the main difference was that students of other faiths who attended religious schools at the time *respected the rules of the school*, and would not have dreamed of imposing their own changes on the schools, and suing them if they could not.

I imagine the same still holds true for most families attending schools of other faiths—but not Muslims, of course.

Their aim is to "Islamo-form" wherever they go, and force all Infidels to accept Shari'ah norms.

This is outrageous. This Greek Orthodox school is defying the will of the mighty mythical Allah and his self-proclaimed 'Prophet and Messenger.'

Basically, this is the idea I was referring to, as the only religious schools with which I am familiar either require that all students be of that faith or adhere to the 'laws' of the religion during school hours with the knowledge that if they do not, they are out. None would have even considered lawsuit as most parents realize that religion is supposed to be 'free' and that a school teaches according to their religious belief, that being the reason for the school in the first place. To ensure that each child learn according to the belief chosen by the parents, the child would attend that kind of school. Others, not having the belief, but having nothing against it, enrolled their children because of the quality of education and better behavior of many religiously schooled children.

I chose my university based on my belief and finding a school that closely agreed with what I believe (re: abortion, etc.)so all assignments would be possible for me without having to compromise.
But, islam insists that everyone bend to the will of a false teaching. It isn't over yet.

As in the UK, so also in the Philippines.

Muslim hijab jihad against non-Muslim educational institutions.

First, against a Catholic school which has a no-headscarf uniform policy:

Philippines: Catholic School Says No to Hijab

"...the school, run by the Congregation of the Religious of the Virgin Mary, who incidentally wears veils, said in its letter to the council that it could not "deviate" from its Catholic leanings.

'It said that students from other religions were welcome to enrol, but must strictly follow the school's no-hijab policy.

"Rules and regulations are explained to them, particularly the non-wearing of the hijab or veil", the school said.

"This is part of academic freedom in connection with which the school has the right to choose whom to teach", it said..".

And against a University which has sensibly banned - for security reasons - the wearing of the Mohammedan Female Slave Mask.

Another Zambo school joins veil ban


"...Another private school here has come under criticism for banning Muslim women from wearing “niqab,” a veil that covers the entire head except the eyes.

Yasser Apion, chief of the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos legal division, said about a dozen Muslim students had not been able to take their classes because of the ban at Universidad de Zamboanga (UZ)..".

I hope that British jihadwatchers have written to this school - St Cyprian's Greek Orthodox Primary Academy, in Thornton Heath - supporting their right to determine what uniform may be worn on school premises, and supporting their hijab ban.

Perhaps the school should be put in touch with Gavin Boby's 'Law and Freedom Society'.

The focus of the LFS is on the lawful use of existing Infidel regulations to head off the building of mosques here, there and everywhere.

But it may be time for the creation of a separate branch of the Society to deal with this kind of 'lawfare': Muslim attempts to force non-Muslim educational institutions which have a clear no-hijab uniform policy, to change that policy by means of a mixture of whining and threats.

Send the Principal of the school, Kate Magliocco, a copy of this classic article on the meaning of the Mohammedan Female Slave Rag.

Outlaw the hijab
N. Maruani
07/08/2009 20:54

'The veil, argues an Iranian-French writer, reflects a refusal to integrate.

Maruani, summarising the views of Chahdortt Djavann, writes -

'She [Djavann] writes that the veil cannot be presented as a personal choice, disregarding centuries of Islamic history.

'She adds that it is inappropriate to probe the motivations of every young girl wearing the veil when what is at stake is a political agenda.

'Djavann explains further: **"The veil has never been innocent or innocuous. It has always signified the submission of women to men and the denial of legal rights to women in Islamic countries." ** {my emphasis - dda}


'...ADDRESSING THE growing phenomenon of veiled women {that is, veiled Muslim women - dda} in Europe, Djavann points out its centrality to Islamist propaganda:

"The political, ideological and psychological impact of the veil goes far beyond its appearance... If this weren't the case, why would the Islamists make it their main focus?... **It constitutes a constant call to order by Islamic law..." ** {my emphasis - dda}.

To be blunt: this Muslim girl wanting to wear her Slave Rag inside a Greek Orthodox school, is analogous to a child of Neonazis enrolling in a Jewish school and demanding the 'right' to wear a Swastika armband and SS or Gestapo death's-head badge.

Or like a child of white supremacists enrolling in one of the historic colleges founded by advocates of higher education for African-Americans, and demanding that s/he be allowed to wear the KKK hood and robe on campus.

Now, back to Maruani's discussion of Djavann on the Slave Rag:

"As the Islamist system {sic: as Islam, the sharia of Islam - dda} covers women's heads, it only sees them as genitals, Djavann argues.

'Hence she calls the veil "pornographic on the symbolic level.

'DJAVANN ESPECIALLY condemns the veiling of little girls, calling it abuse because it makes them internalize at an early age that they should be ashamed:
"Don't we hide what we are ashamed of?... Since childhood, these veiled girls feel guilty..."

'In addition, the girls are a "constant threat to Islamic morals: A girl could bring about a crime, be slaughtered by her father or brothers to cleanse their sullied honor. Indeed, the honor of men is cleansed with girls' blood!"

'The veil may mean several things, Djavann explains.

'It may mean that the woman has become the property of a man;

** it may also mean - in the case of young girls - that they are being marketed as sexual objects, ready to wed.** {my emphasis - dda}.

' Referring to those French intellectuals who consider the veil in schools to be the expression of teenagers' quest for identity, she says:

"The veil does not result from an identity problem. It is an attack on the woman's body... The act of burying the body of a woman under a piece of cloth is extremely serious, similar to genital mutilation. Veiling a minor is abuse... There is a need for legislation to ban the veil, at least in schools."...END EXCERPT.

All of which points the Principal of St Cyprian's School may find useful to have up her sleeve as she confronts these whining, threatening Muslims and the cringing dhimmis who will carry water for them.

The Muslim Female Slave Rag is the most ubiquitous and seemingly-innocuous symbol of the Sharia and of the demand that the world shall submit to Sharia, the Mohammedan Gang Code. It is equivalent to the Black Flag of Jihad. It marks the wearer as a Mohammedan Gang Moll, and therefore by implication identifies all women and girls in the vicinity who are *not* wearing the Rag, as ...Lawful Prey, as Un-Owned Females (sort of like unbranded calves or cows in the old Wild West) who may be seized and used and abused at will by any Mohammedan male who feels strong enough to get away with it.


The J/C roots of our 'secular' states have given us the highest standard of living and greatest measure of freedom in human history. The suggestion that we adopt the methods and laws of fascist states in driving religion out of the putlic square, given the history of such things (100,000,000 plus murders in approx a century), is probably one of the most pathetically stupid suggestions anyone can make. On par with suggesting we adopt islam, the only difference is islam commits mass murder and guaranties the degeneration of any culture at a slower rate then state enforced atheism. 'jake-a-runi' (the name suggest someone less then 7 years old....) should consider that state enforced atheism should be the first religious spiritual proselytism to be banned. Especially the pathetic low church version he is so intent on shoving down peoples throats.

One issue regarding this case that hasn't been discussed is that the family are taking the school to the UK's High Court. High Court time doesn't come cheap. It's unlikely they will receive Legal Aid, although with our pro-Islamic social service, you can't be too sure. Unless they are very wealthy it's unlikely they will be able to afford this themselves.

There was a similar case a few years ago, where Shabina Begum took Denbigh High School in Luton to court because they wouldn't let her wear a full length gown.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/3808073.stm

Thankfully she lost (apparently overturned later on) and I hope these parents do as well.

Her action was funded by Hizb-ut-Tahrir, of which her brother was a member.

Are they funding this families case?

The sane and reasonable response to this families request would be that if they find life so oppressive and restrictive here then perhaps they would be better suited to one of the many Islamic theocracies where she can wear what she likes, provided she doesn't leave the house unless accompanied by a male relative and doesn't mind getting married to her 67 year old cousin she's never met.
