Terror suspect contributed to school 'religion guidelines'

Well, this explains a lot. "Terror suspect contributed to school 'religion guidelines': Issued by Clinton, rules let students pray to Allah, but banish Christmas," by Bob Unruh for WorldNetDaily.com (thanks to Davida):

A man arrested as a terror suspect for allegedly trying to transport $340,000 from a group tied to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, and who reputedly had connections to Osama bin Laden, helped write the "Religious Expression in Public Schools" guidelines issued by President Clinton during his tenure in office.

And that could explain why students at a California school were told as part of their required classes they would become Muslims and pray to Allah – and a federal judge approved that, and why an Oregon school this year is delivering similar lessons to its students, as WND has reported.

Abdurahman Alamoudi, who was president of the American Muslim Council and a supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah, worked with President Clinton and the American Civil Liberties Union when the guidelines, launched by Clinton in 1995, were being developed, according to reports.

Those are the same guidelines that the ACLU's Nadine Strossen referred to for authority when supporting organization lawsuits to restrict Christmas celebrations and the removal of the Nativity from public display, the reports said....

"Today, Christmas and Nativity scenes are outlawed while Clinton's nominee, U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton, recently approved 'Islam: A Simulation' where children learn to become Muslim, recite the Quran, fast for Ramadan and pray to Allah including this prayer: 'In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of Creation, The Compassionate, the Merciful, King of Judgment-day! You alone we worship, and to You alone we pray for help, Guide us to the straight path,'" wrote Jen Shroder, on her BlessedCause.org website.

"The double-standard is shocking, but one need only look at our public school guidelines and who wrote them, with clauses designed to open or close doors at the will of the ACLU, to discover how our nation finds itself in such a dreadful state today," Shroder continued....

There it is again-that unholy alliance. Lefties and Islamania. We really do need a cultural counterrevolution in the US before we all end up losing our heads as well as our minds.

Here, for all of you to see, is Bill Clinton's legacy.

If the Republicans had any political sense this ruling/travesty/ACLU abuse of power would be a political ad on heavy buy leading up to the election. Parents have seen the ridiculous decisions against symbols of Christmas.

"Do you want your child converted to Islam in public school?!"

But, no. They'd rather talk about Foley until they lose the House. This controversy is pre-packaged, relevant, and plays to the Republican's strength.

Coming soon to a school near you-the Stepford Children. Well versed in sharia and Koranic verses and totally mindless otherwise.

On the bright side at least they didn't instruct kids in Ramadan rioting techniques and stoning those who violate this happy festival-yet.

All,

Everyone on JW/DW MUST foward this story (preferrably off the WND URL) to all possible recipients. I have forwarded to everyone in my address book with the request it be forwarded by all recipients. I made the comment this is a story which will be ignored/shunned by the mainstream press. It is imperative for individual Americans to take the lead in informing family and friends about this travesty.

If all 500,000 on JW/DW forward to even 20 others, that gives exposure to 10 million. This story will resonate to those in complete denial. It's one you can sink your teeth into. This scumbag terrorist and traitor, who prayed for the destruction of the USA, was invited as personal guest to the Clinton White House. That is an honor that most of us soldiers will never receive. His picture with the most corrupt President in US history (aka Bill!) should be seen by all. The epitome of the Clinton appeasement of Islam and Islamists. Additionally, the fact that our children are ACTUALLY being indoctrinated into Islam in school (by a terrorist's design) will resonate with even the most liberal deniers.

Don't let this story go. Get it out there. Send it off to politicians requesting explaination. If we do nothing but gripe on JW/DW, it will be swept under the rug. Don't let this one go. Please. I'm heading to Afghanistan very soon and I want to believe that America is finally catching on to the truth. Let's get loud and force the truth on the American people.

God Bless America

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

You'd think I couldn't be surprised at this point, but I'm stunned. I'd been following these class project cases, and was very disturbed by them. But I had no idea the guidelines were written by *actual terror suspects*.

Of course, if it wasn't for rampant, suicidal political correctness, these educational guidelines would never have been adopted or implemented by any school system in the country.

I just hope that educators will learn about this and think twice about using these "innocent" class projects again.

As usual anything but Christianity is okay. The supreme ignorance of this is hard to understand. Stop all Christian reference in our history and stop Christmas, but embrace Islam????I have been saying this to all who will listen: only when the sword is at their throats and they are forced to pray towards Mecca, will the PC anti Christian crowd understand that they have let the fox into the henhouse.

August 22,

I'm referring to all those reading or posting on Jihad Watch or Dhimmi Watch. Recommendation: If everyone sends this article to all on their address book (with recommendation to forward further) we can hit millions. This is the kind of story which even the greatest Liberal denial dhimmi can't ignore. Additionally, I'm sending a copy to my politicians for explaination. Our politicians MUST know that their contacts with Muslims will be scrutinized heavily. Bill Clinton should be extremely embarrased by his picture with this Islamist in the White House. It should become a campaign issue.

Bottom line: The mainstream media will likely ignore this story. WE must get loud and "in your face" about this sort of thing. Americans are ripe an about face from the "religion of peace" garbage. Let's bring that about face from the grass roots. Anyway, I'm heading off to combat and will not have time to read/post for over a year. God Bless all of you and continue the good work.

Here is how Clinton sold-out to Islam: http://www.blessedcause.org/clinton.htm

I've read enough on J/d watch and such to understand that the likes of the aclu and cair are in cahoots with one another. The aclu was insisting that L.A. take the tiny cross off of the cities "code of seal." Don't these dumb imps have anything better in life to do? Maybe there's starving children in the world you could focus on.
