"Islamic propaganda invading public school textbooks

Commentator and syndicated columnist Tony Blankley writing for Townhall, gifts us with a piece that is deserving of more than a cursory scan.

“The Trouble with Textbooks: Distorting History and Religion,” by Gary A. Tobin and Dennis R. Ybarra is the book Blankley assesses,  providing shocking examples of Islam being taught as the “truth” while America’s Judeo-Christian heritage is given short shrift –  with phrases such as “Judaism is a story of exile” and “Christians believe that Jesus was the promised Messiah” but that the Quran “is the collection of God’s revelations to Muhammad.”

The authors describe how American textbooks have gone so far as to outright proselytize Islam to student readers. Islam — and only Islam — is described as historical truth in numerous prominent public-school textbooks. Those same textbooks, repeatedly refer to Christianity and Judaism equally as mere notions of their believers.

They also cite the textbook “Holt World History,” where one can read that Moses “claimed to receive the Ten Commandments from god,” but “Mohammed simply ‘received’ the Koran from God.” The textbook “Pearson’s World Civilizations” instructs that Jesus of Nazareth is “believed by Christians to be the Messiah” — which, Blankley writes, “would be a fine comparative religion study observation”, if the book didn’t also disclose that Muhammad “received revelations from Allah.”

The grievance group that has become particularly adept at influencing textbook publishing is the organized Muslim lobby. The founder of the Council on Islamic Education, the chief Islamic group for vetting textbooks in the United States, refers to his work as a “bloodless revolution inside American junior high and high school classrooms.”

With the acquiescence of the National Education Association (NEA), he is sadly correct.

Blankley, former press secretary to then-Speaker Newt Gingrich, concludes “The Trouble with Textbooks” is a wake-up call to the parents of America to fight back to reinsert the truth of our history in our children’s textbooks and classrooms

Do yourself a favor and read Blankley’s article here.  Then consider purchasing the book.  Knowledge, it is said, is power."

Public Schools in Florida Teaching Muhammad is “God’s Messenger” (Geller, Atlas Shrugs)

Indoctrination in the public schools. This is, by far, the most dangerous and insidious forms of stealth jihad. Education about Islam is critical in order to prepare the next generation for the long war. Proselytizing (dawah) isn’t teaching.

History books are scrubbed of centuries of jihad wars. There is no mention of hundreds of millions of vicitims of jihad wars, land appropriations, annihilations and enslavement. Current event courses omit the vicious persecution, oppression and slaughter of non-Muslims living in Muslim countries.

During the Republican primary race for President, I exposed an Islamophiliac curriculum instituted in Texas under Governor Rick Perry. Many of the weak and spinelesss in the right-wing blogosphere attacked me mercilessly. But they were wrong. I was right. This indoctrination is poison.

    School Defends Textbook Calling Muhammad “God’s Messenger” Todd Starnes, FOX News August 3, 2013
    School officials in Florida are defending a textbook that declares Muhammad as the “Messenger of God” after critics accused an Islamic education group of launching a stealth jihad in American public school classrooms.

    The Prentice World History textbook being used in Brevard Public Schools includes a 36-page chapter on Islam but no chapters on Christianity or Judaism.

According to a copy obtained by Fox News, The ninth grade textbook declares that Muhammad is the “Messenger of God” and instructs students that jihad is a duty that Muslims must follow.

“Jihad may be interpreted as a holy war to defend Islam and the Muslim community, much like the Crusades to defend Christianity,” the book states.

The textbook published large passages from the Koran, but failed to include any Scripture from the Bible. And while the book  makes declarations about Muhammad being God’s messenger, it does not make declarations about Jesus being God’s son.

“Some believed he was the messiah,” the textbook noted in an entry about Jesus. The book noted that He was later executed, but failed to mention His resurrection.
