^^ copies of some handouts/homework students had to do. i consider myself pretty accepting but .. this doesnt feel right.

the line stating "Most Muslim's faith is stronger than the average Christian" really crosses a line.

Public School System Sued for Pushing Islamic Propaganda

this is going on in La Plata in a "world history" class .... this sensitive "religious" material should have a strict set-in-stone curriculum with pre-approved handouts etc. it shouldnt be up to each teacher.

im really just amazed at this line.

"Most Muslim's faith is stronger than the average Christian".

in what way is that teaching about a religion?

According to a local Los Angeles news report, a neighbor of San Bernardino massacre suspects Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik didn't report suspicious activity at their apartment for fear of being accused of racism.

.@KNX1070 reporting a neighbor did not call authorities about suspicious activity bc she did not want to racially profile #SanBernardino

This is the same politically correct culture that lead to the Ft. Hood shooting when Nidal Hassan, who had been spouting violent Islamic propaganda to neighbors on post and reaching out to Al Qaeda, was ignored for fear of "Islamaphobia" accusations.

The warning signs were all there: the justification of homicide bombings; the spewing of anti-American hatred; the efforts to reach Al Qaeda ...

But the U.S. military treated Major Nidal Malik Hasan with kid gloves, even after giving him a poor performance review. And though he was on the radar screen of at least one U.S. intelligence agency, no action was taken that might have prevented the Army psychiatrist from allegedly gunning down 13 people and wounding 29 others in the Fort Hood massacre last week.

See something, say something, is dead.

I found this out from the debate last night...these folks didn't want to get a visit from the PC Principal but they new something was wrong. Maybe could have stopped an attack.

I find it reprehensible that both the mother and the father of this dead terrorist didn't call police. They should be locked up.

on whose side? al assads? isis? extremists rebels? the moderate rebels don't really exist. not to mention it's hard to fight when you're starving and don't have a gun. it's also hard to go tell someone else they should go die for a country when that country no longer really exists, and everyone is killing everyone for no real reason at all.

If Turkey enters into war is NATO still bound by Article 5, the unified defense clause? Could the US even consider not backing up Turkey and Saudi Arabia if they decided to break with the peace process the US set up with Russia?

Next Big Future: Turkey and Saudi Arabia could send tens of thousands of troops into Syria and a possible prelude to full blown Russia-Middle East war

Since the end of WWII there has always been a way to keep from going through with a full scale world war, but sure seems like Syria/ME could set up to test those limits.

Emotional scenes unfolded at the Baghdad International Airport on Thursday as dozens of Iraqis who had sought refuge in Europe returned home.

More than a hundred Iraqis, mostly young men, landed in Baghdad on a flight from Finland.

Anybody care that ISIS is using Chlorine and Mustard Gas against multiple cities within Iraq?

Our president let this happen. Let genocide happen. Remember that folks, remember it.

He was up in arms when Assad did it...haven't heard a word from that pussy in the white house about these attacks.

That Guy · 03-11-2016, 02:13 PM

isis is a problem that is both bush and obama's fault. the problem is american's don't give a hist about foreign policy, so there's no real accountability or or push for spending a lot of effort there, and 90% of presidents come in with 0 foreign policy experience (being governors or senators). no one really votes for candidates foreign policy beyond stupidity like "we're going to build a wall."

what's your answer though? bomb them? cause we're already doing that. spend money fighting them? we're already committing billions to arm the shia fundamentalist militias and security forces fighting them (who also do bad things like torture, beheadings, etc). are you just asking for a press release?

it's not like america ignoring genocide is anything new either. when it happens in africa, the UN tries very very hard to classify it as anything else that's not genocide, cause once it's labelled as genocide, they'd be forced to do something about it.

not trying to be cynical, but either we're the world police or we're not. a lot of times when we go in to fix something, someone doesn't have the regional experience, makes a few really bad decisions, and actively makes things worse.

No your right, Bill Clinton ignored it twice. And after Rwanda, he pledge the US would never let it happen again.

The liberal media has waged a campaign to avoid it.

The Bush blame is way old by now...but I expect that from liberals. ISIS is a President Obama problem. He completely fucked it up...certainly the biggest fuck up of his Presidency. Its getting better, but not before costing lives in attacks here in the US, Europe, and Beirut with terrorist attacks. But that's selfish. We should be thinking about the hundreds of thousands lives lost in Iraq and Syria. This happened in Iraq, where we have invested so much in.

The President has been an absolute disaster in foreign politics. The world is on fire...I guess we should just sit back and let it burn. So funny how the left has completely shifted. So f*ck everybody else now? pathetic, 2 face folks these days.

Lets see, Ukraine, Europe, Syria, Iraq, Israel hates Obama...they have zero respect. The fucking pathetic Iranian deal.

Cuba has already told the President we aint changing for shit. Because they don't have respect for him. So we gain nothing and Cuba's ruling class will gain access to everything.

The President is a weak ass bitch....but you can dress it up anyway you like. Go ahead and rationalize it.

That Guy · 03-11-2016, 07:04 PM

its not a partisan problem, its a foreign policy problem. if bush hadn't invaded iraq, isis wouldn't exist. if bush hadn't fired the entire iraqi army, isis wouldn't exist, cause those people would have been gainfully employed. obama has blame to, i'm not saying he isn't, just that it's stupid to say this is 100% on obama, when he's not the reason we went there in the first place. ignoring iraq's constitution was a big mistake.

but what do you want to do? send troops en masse back into iraq? invade crimea and fight russia in a conventional war? what's the answer that we've all been missing?
