DieHardBrownsFan Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 Immigration Islam Common Core Guns High School Forces Kids to Recite Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic, Prompting Outrage by Top Right News on March 19, 2015 in Education, Islam 739 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter E-mail Reddit by Gina Cassini | Top Right News In the latest outrage involving schools indoctrinating children in Islam — with the full encouragement of the Obama Administration — a New York high school made students recite our national Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic. They even forced the kids to change “one nation under god” to “one nation under Allah.” Pine Bush High school was already embroiled in a scandal when it allowed rampant anti-Semitism to go on — the school was even sued for its failure to stop the blatant hate against Jews. And now it is forcing kids to say the Pledge in Arabic. Is this still America? An effort to celebrate national Foreign Language Week by reading the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic Wednesday has polarized Pine Bush High School into angry factions. The morning’s regularly scheduled announcements included the Arabic reading of the pledge. According to students, the announcement was greeted by catcalls and angry denunciations in classrooms throughout the school by students who felt the reading was inappropriate. The reading became the subject of angry talk throughout the school and a cascade of tweets both from students who criticized the reading and those who supported it. Thankfully, many students rejected it and complained, although some have told Top Right News that they have heard they could face disciplinary action for doing so, which is typical of the Leftist facists who run our public schools and teachers unions. Many parents were also outraged, and went to the media, along with complaining to the district. Stunningly, the school’s president of the student assembly and senior class president, Andrew Zink, insisted that saying the pledge in Arabic is “the right thing to do.” The principal must be so proud of his Progressive foot soldier falling in line. THIS is your government schools, folks! Stand up now, or be hammered down by Sharia. The school in New York isn’t the only one that has forced kids to recite the Pledge in Arabic. Back in 2013 a Fort Collins, Colorado school also became mired in the Pledge in Arabic. Sharia mind-control has spread like wildfire during the Obama Era, as we have reported extensively. Last month, I reported on a Common Core school assignment that forced students to make Islamic prayer rugs, and recite Muslim Prayers, and a U.S. Marine dad who was banned from school after protesting an assignment that blatantly promoted Islam. TRN has also exposed a Nation of Islam pamphlet telling 3rd graders America’s Founding Fathers were racists; a high school girl forced to produce propaganda promoting Islam to younger students; and Boston-area father pulling his son out of classafter he was subjected to Islamic indoctrination without even being notified. If your child’s school presents an unbalanced view of Islam, let me know at: Tips@TopRightNews.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted March 19, 2015 Report Share Posted March 19, 2015 the left is undermining the American collective culture. It's what the left does. They tear down, then put into place their own marxist agendas. mentally ill stuff. NY city, or just NY state? Common Core is just another means to the leftists' end.

blowe Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Well, it would be pretty dumb to count to 10 in Spanish but say "seven" on the way. You are looking at it objectionably, and while I get that there is emotion involved in praising a god that others praised at the very moment they attacked our country. You can't rule out emotion always. There is no way in hell I would ever say one nation under Allah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 You guys realize Christian Arabs call God "Allah," too? This is just another right-wing fake outrage story.

calfoxwc Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Os, stop already with the knee jerk reaction. You apparently missed the part: " a New York high school made students recite our national Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic." ARABIC. Why the refusal to see the picture for what it is? It's a pro Muslim, pro arabic, twist. And, this is also part of the picture: " I reported on a Common Core school assignment that forced students to make Islamic prayer rugs, and recite Muslim Prayers, and a U.S. Marine dad who was banned from school after protesting an assignment that blatantly promoted Islam." That is why the outrage. And I'm sick and tired of spanish. Spanish on recording when you call companies, spanish on so many labels of products. STFU already with the studidass spanish.

LogicIsForSquares Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 It was foreign language week at a school. I don't quite get the outrage but rage on I guess. I am no fan of Islam or any religion for that matter but I don't presume that every kid learning a foreign language is being indoctrinated. Girls who take french don't immediately wear berets and quit shaving their pits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLD Woody Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 We aren't at war with Islam. We aren't at war with everyone that speaks Arabic. Like Logic said, it was foreign language week. They probably did a bunch of things in a bunch of different languages. They weren't being "indoctrinated" with any of them. This is fake outrage for outrage sake. How dare American students learn about other cultures though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mohican Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Anything to discourage saying the pledge is a good thing. I have developed a problem with saying the pledge in any language. The pledge isn't a declaration of patriotism. http://www.cato.org/publications/commentary/whats-conservative-about-pledge-allegiance "From its inception, in 1892, the Pledge has been a slavish ritual of devotion to the state, wholly inappropriate for a free people. It was written by Francis Bellamy, a Christian Socialist pushed out of his post as a Baptist minister for delivering pulpit-pounding sermons on such topics as 'Jesus the Socialist.' ' It was an indoctrination, especially in rural areas and the south - to think of the the United States as a indivisible nation and not a Union of States. "One Nation, and we won't think about anyone ever wanting to leave, ever again. Forever" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can disagree on issues but loyalty to your own country is never an issue. If you can't be loyal then leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohican Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 those of us (myself badly at times) that follow the Christian faith should have an issue with saying the pledge http://www.redletterchristians.org/the-pledge-of-allegiance-2-reasons-why-christians-should-not-say-it/ #2 Jesus also teaches that men cannot serve two masters at the same time. When teaching about worldly treasures, Jesus says we should be more concerned with the things of heaven and God’s kingdom than those of this world. “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other.” (Matthew 6:24) We can’t give our loyalty to two masters and be pleasing to both. Whether the choice is between God and money, God and man, God and a government or nation, the choice is always the same, one or the other. It seems that Jesus is saying ‘you can’t have your cake and eat it too’. In light of this it just doesn’t seem possible to me to give my loyalty to God, and then try and give it to a government at the same time. Jesus also said ” My kingdom is not of this world”. Jesus has a kingdom, and just like an earthly kingdom , I can’t be loyal to two kingdoms at once. It would be impossible to be loyal to the USA and Iran at the same time! It’s the same with being part of the kingdom of God. Jesus calls us to be loyal to his kingdom, and if we have given our loyalty to God’s kingdom, how then can we try and give it to America or any other worldly kingdom? To sum up: Pledging allegiance to the flag equates to making an oath of loyalty to an earthly kingdom. Both acts are condemned by Jesus. I’m ready to stop pledging loyalty to the United States or any other kingdom other than the kingdom of heaven. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mohican Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Interesting but I just consider the pledge as symbolic of loyalty to one's country which any citizen should be loyal to their own country. You can disagree on issues but loyalty to your own country is never an issue. If you can't be loyal then leave. "If you can't be loyal then leave". I used to think like that, but starting in the the Bush II Years and then with the Obama presidency I have been rethinking that position. It depends how you prioritize things. What is loyalty? How much loyalty do I owe this country - I was born here, and did not make a conscous effort (unlike a legal immigrant) to become a citizen. So my citizenship is a matter of birth. So I have to ask myself - what do I owe to the United States? If we enter more wars that I know are unjust, immoral then do I owe loyalty? Should I pay taxes to fund that, and should I willingly feed myself into the chipper shredder? If I think Gay marriage is immoral, should I support a government that circumvents religious safeguards and forces people to comply with the immorality? Or can you love your land, and it's people and not support the government? Should my loyalty mean helping my neighbor get his livestock out of a burning barn, or helping force someone to provide a service they know is wrong? And as for leaving if I don't approve of the actions of the government, why should I? I worked my ass off to get my property. Why leave? and where would I go to? so the "if you're not loyal just leave argument rings more hollow each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 So.... as a Christian, you can't be loyal to your own local football team, either, I take it. And certainly, you can't be loyal to anything. In fact, you should be disloyal to everything except Christianity..... it isn't even funny or entertaining. It's....something else not good. I'm loyal to my country forever, but the US is not my "master". Liberals, and other silly people, gloss over, or misuse words to make "special" points. In the original Hebrew and/or Greek, the various words denoting "master" mostly reference "teacher/leader". Not "I love and am loyal to country, favorite team....etc." In the early days, when I went to church, the church was not my "master/leader" and neither was the pastor. Those were a means to the end - learning more about God, about Jesus, via God's Word. Therefore, when I understood about tithing in original Hebrew and Greek, it wasn't the same as members paying a flat 10% of their gross income. Well, one fine day, I happened to stop in and talk to him about it. He got a bit incensed, and told me that was just the way it was. I said, if not justified by the original Hebrew and Greek, why do so many churches have that same tithing policy? Well, he looked at me smartly and said "because it works". I said "well, robbing a bank "works", but it is wrong."......and he got red in the face, formerly censored me to leave the church and not come back. So, I left, and didn't. But he ended up studying that subject, in the original Hebrew and Greek, and one day called, humbly apologized, and said he was wrong. They changed their policy. You can be loyal to your country, team, city, family, freedoms, cracker jacks, whatever for the most part...per whatever "bibles" apply to you. And God's Law has nothing to do with obeying traffic laws, or gov laws. Those are societal/governing laws. God's Laws are per salvation, as I see it. https://www.biblegateway.com/resources/encyclopedia-of-the-bible/Master "sigh" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calfoxwc Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Mo, it isn't a matter of disagreeing. I disagree with all sorts of stuff, but I'm loyal to my country. and this board, etc. My country is not policies, My wonderful, outstanding marriage - I am 1000000 percent loyal... but we disagree on which side of the sink put the dirty dishes, and how long they should be allowed to remain there..... Liberals miss the point of things. If you want to fundamentally change what you are a part of, then you aren't loyal to said part. Therefore, you should leave that part. I do not want to fundamentally change America - I dearly love my country. Do I agree the way Obamao is doing ANYTHING, the marxist sumbeech bastard.....? NO. His policy is not my country. Bush never tried to "fundamentally" change our country. You disagree with some of his policies, oh well. Liberals always? tend to think emotionally on issues. That's why they make little analytical sense, and get all twisty-twisty into knots about things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your race, religion, political party, sexual orientation? And in cases of territorial loyalty which include your football team is there any logical reason?

That was Benedict Arnold who is now reviled in our history. Steve ****************************************** Somehow, I see that as wrong and annoying.....the Founding Fathers were victimized by an army of the King of England, who was trying to destroy them and/or tax them out of existence, in a new area that wasn't a country yet. But, the King claimed it as theirs. That they were British citizens is fine, except they were not in Britain. It's a fallacy that the King owned the colonies because the territory was inhabited by British citizens. That's ignorant. Russia took Crimea for that half-assed reason. The terroritorial boundaries of England hardly included the colonies of what would become America. And Chris, when I disagree with me, 99 % of the time, I know I'm right.

calfoxwc Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 My loyalty to America and our Red, White and Blue is 100 percent, always and forever. Until America is no more because they threw out our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and changed our flag to a hammer and sickle. But then, it wouldn't be America anymore. America would be gone. Then I'd still be loyal to the dream of getting it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
