‘Screaming and Crying' Greet Arab School Plan
in response to reader comment: A Solution

Submitted by charles, Jul 4, 2007 09:08

if Arabic speaking ppl want an Arabic school, let them raise money and fund a private school for this purpose. if this proposal goes forward, the next steps will be based on sharia...seperate facilities for male/female for classrooms, special places to wash before prayers, a place within the school to pray, coverings for females, females treated like second class citizens, halal meat in the cafeteria. all followed by teaching Islam within the public school to convert non-believers.......
