- JimmySpaza, on 05/10/2008, -4/+17Shame! What ever happened to simply telling the truth?
- alanhlake, on 05/10/2008, -4/+12In an American government school? Truth? Whazzat?
- rjwusa, on 05/10/2008, -4/+10Silly Jimmy! Don't you know the National Education Association and it's hard left teachers ARE telling the truth? Their truth and nothing but their truth.
- sfacets, on 05/11/2008, -0/+5History is written by the victors, so the truth is variable.
- notbysight, on 05/10/2008, -2/+14Globalist educators and text books paint a smiley face on the Islamic world so the young readers can feel comfortable with the acceptance and invitation of Islamic nations to join the future global community in their upcoming generationm, down playing the Islamic doctrines.....called social engineering.
- Kaffir, on 05/10/2008, -2/+14When the Fox is in the Hen House, you've got real problems, my friends! Not all Muslims are "radical" but how can you tell the "radical" from the "moderate"? It's even more difficult, because when you read the Qur'an for yourself, you see that in truth, it's the "radical" Muslim who is the REAL Muslim! He is the one who is being true to the Prophet Mohammad, not the luke-warm, non-practicing Muslim. The same can be said of many who claim to be "Christians" - but they never attend church. They have never opened a Bible, let alone read it. So it is with "radical" Muslims, and the Qur'an. They are totally sold out to this Evil religion, begun over 1,000 years ago, which swept across all of North Africa, and on into Spain, where it took the Spanish over 500 years to kick the Muslims out! Islam is a prosolytizing religion, aiming to conquer the entire world, by gentle persuassion, or by much harsher means: the Sword of Jihad. The mosques are going up all over the world, funded by petro-dollars and petro-euros from Saudia Arabia. The Muslim Missionaries are targeting our most precious commodity - our children, for conversion to Islam (which, by the way, means "Submission") and its wicked deity, Allah - which origianally was the Arabs' moon god, especially revered in Meccah, at the Kabbah (a tent that housed the pantheon of gods worshipped by the old nomadic Arab tribes of ancient Arabia, known as Bel by the Babylonians, and other names by others in the region).
If Christians did the same thing the Muslim missionaries are doing today with these textbooks, there would be a hue and cry all across the Liberal landscape! But, it's not Christ and the Bible being taught here - it's Islam, and it's false prophet, Mohammad - the Prophet of Doom! - nippinawassee, on 05/10/2008, -2/+13Great post Kaffir... and here we are all indoctrinated to being politically correct.. can't say anything against islam because that could be a hate crime - can't explain the horrors that accompany this push to shove islam down the christian's throats - because that would be politically incorrect... and could be twisted and construed as a hate crime. Our own legislators, our own justice department, our own political leaders throughout the United States have set us all up to fall right into line with the islamic farce. and WHY? the islam 'religion' has found a home with the ones here in this country who want to overthrow the entire government - reparations, etc. have continued on to be more - to take over the United States and promote their newfound religion - islam... but still the citizens who have been molded into the complacent liberal herd don't wake up... you suppose when they feel the knifeblade sawing at their neck, they'll THEN wake up and say: what happened to OUR country? Yep - it's OUR country - not the country of the illegals, not the country of the thousands of islamics 'supposedly fleeing from the viciousness in their own countries'. Why don't people realize that they've played on the stupidity and gullibility of the American public NOT TO MENTION the political leaders? Once established here, with their own churches, their own businesses, there's only one step more to taking over America... once the home of the free...
- DWposts, on 05/10/2008, -1/+12If we lose the children, we literally lose the war. It’s a brilliant strategy for a passive takeover. I agree with everything Kaffir says, multiplied by ten. We should be shouting from the rooftops that we have been infiltrated by murderers. If these words seem harsh, or God forbid, “intolerant,” just read the Koran for yourself.
We (the U.S.) wrongly consider Islam to be a religion. It is far more – it is a violent geopolitical force with an insatiable appetite for domination. It is a brutal culture of death, a primitive, barbaric way of life. It is a cancer on the world, a deadly virus that will not stop until it is exterminated. Based on the delusional rantings of the drug addicted pedophile Mohammed, it is global political, military, civic, and cultural disease.
There are many reasons to call Bush an idiot, but at the top of the list is referring to Islam as a “religion of peace.” In the West peace means peaceful and/or cooperative coexistence, to Islamic nations peace means resting after the entire world is conquered, subjugated and converted to Islam.
Wake up, dhimmi, while you can still offer resistance to preserve your way of life. Pray that our leaders wake up as well and stop letting this deranged cult of murderous fanatics influence us in any way.
A good beginning: Support the development and implementation of alternative power technologies that will free us of all ties to Islamic countries. Prevent the investment of Islamic foreigners in the US and the establishment and funding of new mosques and schools. Send home and block entry to all of the Muslim students and visitors from Islamic nations that are not absolutely essential for the necessary cooperation of governments. Do not do business of any kind with Muslims, and investigate thoroughly any charity that you donate to, to insure that you are not supporting Islamic organizations.
Digg me down all you like, maybe even set a new record. I will not be silent while I see such a grave threat to my country.- Kaffir, on 05/12/2008, -0/+5I am right there with you, DWposts! Good post.
We need to err on the side of caution, to fail otherwise would mean disaster for our children and the future of not only our country, but of all of Western Civilization. God bless America, and all godly men and women!
- Kaffir, on 05/12/2008, -0/+5I am right there with you, DWposts! Good post.

- witness1of2, on 05/10/2008, -2/+112 Thessalonians 2:9-12 explains clearly what's happening. It's the work of Satan, the counterfeit. He will use every kind of wicked deception to fool those who are on their way to destruction because they refuse to believe the truth that would save them. So God will send great deception upon them AND THEY WILL BELIEVE ALL THESE LIES. Understanding that the word 'Peace' in Islam means TOTAL subjugation of the whole world and NOT the 'Peace' western civilization understands will go a long way in understanding the threat Islam presents...until that happens true Islam is at war.

- hugothecommie, on 05/10/2008, -2/+10Hold onto your guns my friends. Never let the liberals get them. If they come to get them, hide them. The left in this country are bed with the Muslim radicals. Our next commander in chief will be a Muslim. He will literally let Iran and the rest of the middle east go nuclear. Once they can eliminate Israel, they can then go after the rest of Europe. Unfortunately we are going to have our own problems here when the left regains the White House. Racism will be out of control. The leftest doctrine promotes hate and racism as always. If you don't think so you haven't been paying attention to the Democrat primary. They have managed to gain control of our learning institutions and begin the process of indoctrinating our children towards socialism. Our history is being removed from our text books. The only thing that will keep us free will be the gun owners. If they ever get our guns, we are finished as a free nation. Remember liberals that read this quote, "A Government big enough to give you every thing you want, is a Government big enough to take everything you have."
- Batmamma, on 05/10/2008, -1/+9In Europe muslims are out breeding the Europeans 7 to 1. They know they must have a majority for control in a democratic nation. They know the way to further their agenda - in our children. They do it with their own children. They use our own freedoms to their advantage. Their precious book tells them a lie is okay if it is for the purpose of jihad. Anyone who is not a muslim cannot have the same rights. How can any person with a heart and mind not see the hatred presented in the quaran? Wake up complacent America and see the "fox in the hen house" (well put Kaffir). The mosques are going up all over and they are looking for recruits. They are gaining their majority in Europe and the crime rates are rising. By the time it's can be clearly seen in America, it will be too late. If this is not a religion of hate, then where are those who cry out that their faith has been hijacked by criminals? "Because they hate" by Brigitte Gabriel (might not be spelled right - sorry) is an excellent first hand account of what these people are capable of.
And make this comparison, if you will: Judeo Christian faith vs. Islamic faith. Then ask yourself, who is in direct contradiction to Christ? Why was mohammed afraid when "Gabriel" visited him? Haven't angels ALWAYS offered reassurance to not be afraid? Who has been trying since the beginning of time to thwart God's plan? If you know the answers then you know who allah is. - goldcountrygal, on 05/10/2008, -1/+9fwelch said: "Seems like their trying to indoctrinate the school children". Seems? This Muslim masquerade had been going on for almost ten years! The indoctrination is now a given. Wise up parents. Government schools are no more "free" than they are truthful. If you have children in these "schools", you are more culpable of destroying your child's mind and soul by the very fact that you ALLOW them to be taught by the state in the first place. www.cftie.org is loaded with good info on the Islamic problem in the TCI curriculum. Read it and then decide that this is the day you're pulling your child out of public school!
- fwelch, on 05/11/2008, -1/+7Home schooling is the only way to go. The problem here is if the state approves it. Here in California they are trying to get parents licensed to teach their own kids. The government wants the Teachers Union to teach the kids. No way in my book.
- kelly, on 05/12/2008, -1/+5Don't forget private Christian schools are an option

- LifeguardMom, on 05/10/2008, -1/+10A friend of mine, a teacher, showed me one of these textbooks. She is homeschooling her kids next year.
Can you imagine textbooks in 1945 glossing over Pearl Harbor?
It's a travesty what is being passed off as schoolbooks today. God help future generations. - bioya1, on 05/10/2008, -2/+9It wasn't fully explained in the article but I'll bet that those who control these historical views are clueless liberals. Who else would look at radical Muslims and argue that they are neighborly and kind to strangers? These are the same people who overlook the fact that Muslims believe its OK to lie to non-Muslims. Scarier yet, and no doubt, these same people probably support B. Hussein for prez.
- 10QGZus, on 05/11/2008, -0/+9God help this country. Our public schools are a joke. They don't teach, they indoctrinate. Kids don't learn, they are brainwashed.
Homeschool your kids now! It's the only way they will learn the truth about our country's history, and the history of the world. - sfacets, on 05/11/2008, -2/+3Buried for the comment. What's wrong with you? Get an education.
- shanson13, on 05/12/2008, -1/+4From where should this "education" come from? Public indoctrination centers?

- TYRONEBR549, on 05/11/2008, -2/+7And the drums keep getting louder and louder.
- LadyAmerica, on 05/11/2008, -2/+7As do the hoofbeats (Rev 6:1-8)!
- TYRONEBR549, on 05/12/2008, -2/+4AMEN!
- shanson13, on 05/12/2008, -2/+4I'm ready to be caught up in the clouds to be with Jesus...how about you?
- LadyAmerica, on 05/12/2008, -0/+1Well, I don't believe the Bible teaches a pre-trib rapture, but a post-trib one (we will be caught up at Jesus' return in glory in the clouds). But, yes, I am looking forward to that day when I will be with Him:
"Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." (Matthew 24:29-31 KJV)

- Brumbar, on 05/11/2008, -0/+4Hey, way wrong here!!! You can't have jack about Christianity in Schools, that is unless it's being blasted, or subjects of the not so good things that happened in Christianities past are dredged up and examined microscopically. Now they are singing opuses to the virtues of Islam? The hypocrisy is not exactly intangible here.
- LadyAmerica, on 05/11/2008, -0/+4This is SEDITION and/or TREASON! Perpetrators should be arrested!
- shanson13, on 05/12/2008, -1/+5"Keep in mind when looking at this particular book scholars from all over California (reviewed it)," he said.
There's one of the major problems here...based on what I see from our schools out here, California scholars are almost exclusively liberal God-haters. No wonder this indoctrination continues to accelerate.
Parents please wake up and LOOK at what your kids are being taught in the public institution of brain-washing formerly known as the public school system. Bring your kids HOME and guide their education yourselves if you can...if not, then at least enroll them in a private school where you can have some say over their curriculum. Get them out of the Godless, liberal, politically correct, corrupt and in many cases just plain evil public system. Come soon Lord Jesus! God bless you all, and Father, please protect our children from this evil. - alkajazz, on 05/12/2008, -0/+5I remember being taught the history of Islam in High School. It was so convincing that I converted. I'm not sure when teaching human history became indoctrination. Not telling your kids about Islam isn't going to make it magically disappear. If your kids suddenly convert to Islam just because they read a very watered down summary, then it goes to show how strong the Christian belief is. Damn that indoctrination center......
- GWBARNHOUSE, on 05/12/2008, -1/+2I read about Islam from a school library book when I was thirteen. It was not in a text, it was not required. This was fifty two years ago. The account was entirely factual, not like the misinformation and lies contained in the text books in question. Much later in college I studied comparative religion and recently I have read accounts and articles about Islam. Islam means submission and sharia law oppresses the individual. This is contrary to everything American.
- eir574, on 05/13/2008, -0/+3"Islam means submission and sharia law oppresses the individual. "
And how do you explain those Muslims who either don't live under sharia law or who don't want to, but are in countries where it's forced on them?
- eir574, on 05/13/2008, -0/+3"Islam means submission and sharia law oppresses the individual. "
- LadyAmerica, on 05/12/2008, -2/+2You mean you liked "conversion by the sword" by which the followers of Mohammed subjugated all of the Middle East, much of West Asia, Spain, and other areas as well? Islamic history is replete with slaughter, rape, oppression, and forced conversions, as taught in the Qur'an, ahadith, and sunna. You chose Islam because of this?
- alkajazz, on 05/13/2008, -0/+2I was joking?
- LadyAmerica, on 05/13/2008, -1/+1I hope so! Next time maybe use the /s tag for sarcasm.

- ccso8462, on 05/12/2008, -0/+2Home school your kids and keep your powder dry. It's a matter of survival.
- GWBARNHOUSE, on 05/12/2008, -0/+2See reply to alkajazz above. I am bitter and I cling to God and guns. Everything about Islam goes against our Constitution and laws and our ideas freedom and liberty. The issue is that the followers of Islam won't come here and live in peace. It is their idea to stir up trouble. They claim that they want the historical truth known but the truth is that for fourteen hundred years Islam has never, never lived at peace with its neighbors. The problem is that Islam is stuck in the Dark Ages. Any criticism evokes violent reaction. The worst dissimulators of lies is CAIR.
