Here yet again we see it. When Muslims murder infidels, Muslims are victims. When racist, bigoted “Islamophobes” supposedly target Muslims, Muslims are victims. And when Muslims fake “Islamophobic hate crimes,” Muslims are victims. Always and in every situation, Muslims are victims, to be appeased and accommodated in every possible way. Once you understand, we can all lock arms and march together into our glorious multicultural, diverse future.
“Teacher’s 9/11 lesson angers Vernon family,” by Eric Obernauer, New Jersey Herald, September 13, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
VERNON — On a day of mourning for the 3,000 people killed on Sept, 11, 2001, by Islamic terrorists inspired by Osama bin Laden, a middle school social studies teacher allegedly decided to skip that part of the discussion Tuesday and instead teach a fictionalized account of a Muslim boy being picked on because his name is Osama.
School officials thus far have been mostly mum on the matter beyond acknowledging that it was brought to their attention and dealt with internally, but one couple told the New Jersey Herald Wednesday that they are outraged and have since had their daughter pulled out of that teacher’s class.
Ed O’Rourke, a former Marine, said he and his wife, Jodi, found out about it almost by accident while having dinner with their daughter, who is in sixth grade, Tuesday evening.
“I thought it was a joke at first,” Ed O’Rourke said. “I couldn’t believe it.”
The story that the teacher had her students read, titled “My Name is Osama,” tells a made-up account of an Iraqi immigrant boy named Osama who faces taunts of “terrorist” in school by several students who tell him his mother, who wears a hijab, has “a bag on her head.” After pushing back against his tormenters, the boy is suspended from school for fighting.
The story included no mention of the ideology behind those who carried out the 9/11 attacks, which O’Rourke said should have been a part of the class discussion as well.
“It would be like, on a day about the Holocaust, doing a made-up lesson about a boy named Adolf being bullied by Jewish kids and saying we shouldn’t blame all Germans — or don’t pick on the poor kid named Adolf on the Jewish holidays,” O’Rourke said. “It’s grotesque.”
O’Rourke said he conveyed his concerns late Tuesday to Glen Meadow Middle School Principal Edwina Piszczek, who forwarded the message to Acting Superintendent Charles McKay.
After being invited to meet with them Wednesday morning, O’Rourke said he came away with a sense that they at least understood his concerns, though he received little in the way of specifics about how they planned to address it.
“They couldn’t have been better as far as letting me vent, and agreed that the timing couldn’t have been more horrific,” O’Rourke said. “They said they were unaware the teacher was planning to do this and that it fell through the cracks, though when I asked if they were planning any disciplinary action against the teacher, they said they weren’t sure at this point.”…

“by Islamic terrorists”
No.
Muslim terrorists.
Better yet: jihadists.
Lydia Church says
All the same thing.
Anyway, with these people it’s: denial, denial, denial!
Clive Stephen Delmonte says
Absolutely true !
J D S says
Of course Muslims are the victims…..They must be, because our government our schools ,universities many supposedly American organizations and every Muslim organization under the sun, says so.
So just roll over and take it and GET THIS… just heard, on Fox news, that a notorious Islamic preacher that plotted st least 15 terror attacks and recruited for ISIS is scheduled to be released from prison early in England…More proof that Muslims are victims.
WE ARE THE VICTIMS because we have no strategy to wipe out this scourge who are attacking from every venue.

The parents of ALL the American children at this school – and others – need to complain to education authorities, and loudly. This sort of pro-Islamic content is being sneaked in to many classrooms, and our children are being indoctrinated without our knowledge.
Garfield says
This kind of crap is why I homeschooled K-12.
Parents: ASK your kids what they are being subjected to at school. If it’s indoctrination….yes, COMPLAIN!
Who cares if you alienate some self righteous freaks who hate America. You don’t want them as friends anyway! as
Kids should not be brainwashed like that. Wtf.
Redbug says
WAKE UP, AMERICA……This should not be happening in America, and this teacher should be FIRED…..and NOW……

Hugh and Indiana Tom, that disgusting story is here:
https://www.cambriansd.org/cms/lib07/CA01902282/Centricity/Domain/316/My-Name-is-Osama0001.pdf
Like so many, it was a collaboration between a Mohammedan and a dhimmi–Sharifa Alkhateeb and Steven S. Lapham in this case.
From the story, one would think that the only thing that happened on 9/11 is that “Islamophobes” started taunting nice kids named Osama whose mothers just like to wear Hijab. Certainly, there is nothing in the text about Muslims slaughtering almost 3,000 Americans.
Frighteningly, Sharifa Alkhateeb is involved in officially whitewashing Islam for American law enforcement.
Indiana Tom says
Oh,every bad thing in the universe is America’s fault. We are now the evil white supremacist imperial empire of the universe. Poor little innocent Muslims. So oppressed and misunderstood.
Did you know the A OK sign is now a symbol of white nazi supremacism?

For those Americans — and true citizens of the world — who were informed and enlightened by the multicultural insights of former President Barack Obama, the empathy and educational lesson recently provided to pupils in New Jersey on the anniversary of 9/11/2001 will surely be seen with greater nuance than the deplorable perspective put forward by Mr. Spencer.
In the aftermath of the tragic workplace violence at Fort Hood in 2009, for example, President Obama highlighted the key importance of military diversity in his subsequent Saturday radio address. Thus honoring Americans who served in battle over the world, President Obama observed: “They are Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus and nonbelievers.”
“They reflect the diversity that makes this America. But what they share is a patriotism like no other,” Obama concluded.
This moral perspective was reinforced by U.S. Army General George Casey, at that time the Army’s top officer. General Casey expressed deep concerned that diversity would become a casualty of the Fort Hood tragedy due to a backlash against American Army, Air Force and Navy officers, soldiers and sailors of Muslim heritage.
“Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse,” warned General Casey.
We can therefore conclude that the teacher in New Jersey was simply putting into educational practice the important moral lessons of President Obama and his Administration. Mr. Spencer overlooked this nuanced perspective.

As always, it is difficult to know whether “Moshe” is a clueless dhimmi (as is his pose), a taunting Mohammedan, an Anti-Jihadist with a twisted sense of humor, or just a troll just hoping to get a rise out of the good people at Jihad Watch. If the latter, he is actually oddly knowledgeable about dhimmitude.
Norger says
I think he’s an anti-jihadist with a twisted sense of humor. His schtick seems too tongue in cheek to be serious.

Could be, Norger. It’s pretty deadpan humor, though…
Guy Forester says
It took me a long time to figure out his sense of humor. Sometimes he does not get it quite right in my opinion. Basically, Moshe is trying to point out the absurdity of the jihad apologists.

@ Moshe
Explain, you clown, how diverse the world would be if Islam took over and imposed Shariah! We would all be thinking exactly the same way, praying 5 times a day and muttering ‘inshallah’ every 2 seconds while planning to murder our neighbor for not being Muslim enough.
That’s Islam’s version of diversity. Is that what you want for all of us, ya five-star clown?
Georg says
I had a Bangladeshi teacher who, upon having us read a book where the protagonist laughs as the Twin Towers fall, talk at length about Muslims/Hindus being kicked or spat upon on 9/11; this at a university roughly 30 miles from Ground Zero. She never mentioned anything regarding the immorality of the attacks themselves. It was exceedingly unpleasant but a necessary education as to who is out there and among us here.
gravenimage says
Appalling, Georg.
mortimer says
O’Rourke probably discovered the tip of the iceberg. I suspect many teachers are MESMERIZED by the ABSURD PROPAGANDA of the GLOBALIST HYPER-LEFTARDS who cannot see the JIHADIST IDEOLOGY for the Islamic trees.
The Western LEFTARDED, POSTMOERNIST NEO-MARXISTS are in positions of influence and they STEADFASTLY REFUSE to learn a DAMN THING about Islam’s CORE TEACHINGS of ISLAMIC APARTHEID, MISOGYNY, KAFIR HATRED, JEW HATRED and VIOLENT CONQUEST.
The Western LEFTARDED, POSTMOERNIST NEO-MARXISTS in the school system and politics are the modern-day COUNT JULIANS who are importing and aiding and abetting the JIHAD against their own people. Some of them know not what they do. Most of them hate the society that brought them to positions of influence.

And where was this clown on 9/11/01? Dancing and handing out candy on a rooftop in New Jersey? S/he should be locked in a room and forced to listen to the tapes of people trapped in Windows on the World pleading for help. Maybe that would give the bitch (of whichever sex) some perspective on fictional “Osama’s” little hurt feelings.

There needs to be a complete ban on teaching Islam in public schools.
Period.
Leon Degney says
THere needs to be a complete ban in Islam period.
Linde Barrera says
To abad- Respectfully, I disagree. No matter the school type, the 5 major religions should have an “overview” with portions of each religion’s doctrines read, understood and discussed, for high schoolers studying world history. That would have to include jihad in Islam. However, this is not covered. Only the bare outline of each religion is mentioned, which gives students a fake sense that “Islam is a religion of peace” when those who have studied it know otherwise.
gravenimage says
True, Linde.
And good to see you posting again.
Dj says
I agree 100%. Islam is a hideous and deadly cult, which teaches hatred and violence against non-muslims.
When will America politicians and the media wake up to the truth?
The practice of Islam should be banned by all countries worldwide.
Just look at the life of Muhammed and the history of Islam and it should be crystal clear how evil this cult is.
Guy Forester says
Unfortunately, Mr. O’Rourke will find out that he met with a bunch of bobble heads. He will most likely find they paid a lot of lip service and will ultimately do nothing. The teacher will not only not be reprimanded, but the Union will vigorously defend her right to free speech. However, she is not paid to tell the students her version of history, she is supposedly being paid to teach facts.
WPM says
Try to find the outfit who gave this progressive idiot teacher the story book and outline to give to his or her class. Try to find out what other schools and teachers have been approached by this outfit.
Rarely says
I don’t know exactly should or shouldn’t be taught in schools or how it should be taught but I strongly believe that on the anniversary of 9/11 the horrific facts of that day and the memory of the victims and heroes should be the ONLY story. Anything less would minimize the horror that was 9/11 and dishonour the victims and heroes.
For that one day the aftermath is irrelevant.
Brenda says
The school wasn’t sure they were going to discipline a this ‘teacher?’ If I was this girls father, I wouldn’t left without a promise of a full apology to the entire class by this ‘teacher’ for their lies, demand this ‘teacher’s’ classes be monitored for truthfulness and started a petition that this ‘teacher’ be fired.
Walter Sieruk says
This shows that the state of New Jersey must have some school teachers who are just a terrible as some my the School teachers in my own state, Pa. This likewise exposes just how lacks and awful the State boards are for allowing such people be become teachers.
In addition, those heinous and murderous jihad attack which occurred on September 11, 2001 reflects the teaching of the “holy book” of Islam, the Quran. As, for example, the Quran instructs in Sura 9:111. “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed…” Those jihadist /Muslims who were al Qaeda operatives by using jets as missiles on 9/11 were following the instruction of the Quran to “Kill and be killed” for the cause of Islam Nevertheless, the apologists for Islam still have the gall to make the claim the “Islam is a peaceful religion.” What an outlandishly false claim to make
Walter Sieruk says
This incompetent politically correct teacher if she was not such a PC person would be a competent well educated American teacher would,instead of going off into the Left Wing , teach the students the strong and good values and precepts of some of the Founding Fathers the United State of America .Such as some of the worthwhile wise precepts as expressed by intelligent and educated men as Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin.
So it’s therefore a good time to site the wisdom of two of America’s founding Fathers. This is because all those jihadist/Muslims who were al Qaeda operatives and who created such awful mass murder. For those malicious and murderous jihadists on 9/11 were not open to either logic of reason. Those jihadists of al Qaeda only possessed blind unquestioning faith in Islam with all its bogus promise o fa houris- filled paradise for them if they died fighting for the cause of Islam as “martyrs.” Which that evil and deluded madness Islamic mindset they had, they were dangerous to self and others by engaging in that 9/11 jihad suicide/homicide attacks . So concerning the subject of all al Qaeda, ISIS, and other likeminded Muslim suicide/homicide – bombers /attackers. They are so thoroughly brainwashed and deluded that they actually think of their murderous actions as “martyrdom operations.” This jihad evil and madness is based on the Koranic doctrine, 9:111. , of a far-fetched and nonsensical doctrine of a sex- filled paradise with many virgins, hours, in it for the use only the jihadist/Muslim male who dies as a “martyr” fighting for the cause of Islam. This weird religious/Islamic teaching is found contained the Koran in 44:56. .55:56. 78:31. This bizarre and odd, irrational Koranic doctrine is not open, to the jihadist, to inquiry, questioning. logic or reason. So this blind unreasoning kind of “faith” in the Koran is a reminder that Thomas Jefferson had written. “Man, once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without a rudder, is the sport of every wind. With such persons, gullibility, which they call faith, takes helm from the hand of reason and the mind becomes a wreck.” Likewise, Benjamin Franklin had printed in POOR RICHARD’S ALMANACK something which may apply to this topic. For Mr. Franklin had printed “The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason.”

I visited the new tower that replaced the two destroyed WTC towers. I read the names of some of the innocent people that were killed, and I wept. In my native country India, two hundred years a Muslim Sultan in the southern state of Mysore hanged 700 Brahmin men because they refused to embrace Islam.
Incidents of mass murder like this can be found all over past history.
