Mayor De Blasio to Close NYC Schools for Muslim Holidays

138

Fourteen years after 911, Mayor Bill de Blasio, nee Warren Wilhelm, caved to Islamic supremacist demands and added Muslim holidays to the school calender. The only Muslim holiday that should have been added was September 11th.

The city is far too diverse for schools to observe every holiday. NYC has a huge Hindu population. Why weren’t the Hindu holidays added?

The education is sub-par as it is; the last thing NYC kids need is more time off from school.

This is but another device in which Islam is imposed on the public school. The Islamic curriculum in the public schools do not include the 1,400 years of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural annihilations and enslavements.

CNN quotes people like Islamic supremacist “Palestinian” far-Left activist Linda Sarsour, giving them the imprimatur of legitimacy, while voices of reason are silenced. The argument made by Islamic supremacists is that Muslims shouldn’t have to weigh school vs. religious observances. Nonsense. You have a holiday, you take the day. No biggie. When I was young, I took off Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur from my schools. My school didn’t give Jewish kids those days off. My family, my community never thought twice about it. But we never sought to impose our religion on others.

Their objective is much bigger than school holidays — it is to impose Islam.

 

“New York City public schools to have Muslim holidays off,” By Greg Botelho, CNN, March 4, 2015

(CNN)New York City public schools will now observe two Muslim holidays, officials announced Wednesday, making the district — the nation’s biggest — one of the few to put Islamic holy days on its calendar.

Under the change announced by New York Mayor Bill de Blasio and city Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina, there will be no class for Eid al-Adha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, starting next September 24. Another Muslim holiday, Eid al-Fitr — a festival marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan — will become a holiday for those in summer school starting in 2016.

“This is a common-sense change,” de Blasio said Wednesday, “and one that recognizes our growing Muslim community and honors its contributions to our city.”

The decision affects some 1 million students in New York City. While it’s not known exactly how many of them are Muslim, City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito said that almost 1 million of the more than 8 million people in the city’s five boroughs practice Islam and a 2009 Columbia University study found that roughly 10% of New York City public school students are Muslim.

The move isn’t a surprise, given de Blasio’s campaign pledge to alter the school calendar with Muslim families in mind.

“Muslim students and their families who observe Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha shouldn’t have to choose between an instructional day and their religious obligations,” said Farina. “This new addition will also enable a teachable moment in the classroom for our students to learn about religious tolerance and the societal contributions of various cultures.”

Linda Sarsour, executive director of the Arab American Association of New York and the parent of three public school students, said a plan in which students wouldn’t have to choose between education and faith “a win for our children and for future generations in this country.”

“Muslims are a part of the fabric of this country,” she said. “We make our country proud, and today, New York City made us proud.”

New York City joins school districts in other states, including New Jersey, Massachusetts and Vermont, that similarly observe Muslim holidays, according to a news release from Farina’s office.

And Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha join other religious holidays already on New York’s public school calendar. In addition to holidays like Easter that always fall on a weekend, students already have Christian holidays such as Good Friday and Christmas off, as well as the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.

From an article published in August:

“As one police chief told the German press, the governments may deny it, but everyone knows these no-go zones exist, and “even worse, in these areas crimes no longer result in charges.” The Muslims are “left to themselves. Only in the worst cases do we in the police learn anything about it. The power of the state is completely out of the
picture.”

His real name is Dr Rushdi Cader https://www.linkedin.com/pub/rushdi-cader/6a/a23/175 and typical of stealth jihadists, anti-semites and anti-West jihadists, he hides his real persona because he wouldn’t be able to teach law enforcement officers http://www.swattrauma.com/PRACTI-SEAL/About_Us.html If his bosses knew he was a hate preacher he would be fired.

I suppose the cruelty to animals this festival exercises has nothing to do with Islam. As well as the way animals are treated in UK Halal abattoirs.

History may be repeating itself, but we can rewrite the last chapter, with new leaders who are equipped to handle the unique threat that Islam is, and new laws to deal with islam’s racism, militancy, and sharia. But most important, reduce muslim immigration to a trickle. If we don’t, everything else would be of little value.

I don’t know how we can rewrite the last chapter. Reading about Islamic history, what I’ve come to see is that it can only get worse. There is no other option.

I do believe that its about weakening Islam by closing down Mosques, putting a ban on Halal, closing Islamic bookshops. Laws that reduce Islam the way Christianity is reduced in the Middle East.

Islam is ‘peaceful’ when its in a weak state. As it begins to grow, Muslims become more organised and Islam becomes more ‘radicalised’.

As the reality of Islam’s menacing intentions become more clear and obvious our better natures will rise up and meet the challenge, I really believe this. The struggle for freedom and equality has come too hard for us in America to just allow Islam’s nazi ideology to enslave us. The wounds of the past are healing slowly but surely. I’m talking about the unjust treatment of blacks, women, and minorities in general. Not to mention a shocking civil war and two world wars. Millions have died for these freedoms. We know we’re not perfect. But we’re perfect in our hopes and aspirations. Sappy it sounds, I know. I don’t care, it’s true. Call me old fashioned, but I’m still proud of my nation, with all its bumps and bruises. I KNOW we are the better people, the better nation, and I don’t care how grave the threat. I will never surrender, and I know you won’t either, not to barbaric islam–never.

ALL FAITHS DAY

Behind Christians, Jews and Moslems New York City has a large Hindu (Indian) and Buddhist (Chinese-Korean) population. Why shouldn’t De Blasio consider their religious sensitivies and close public schools in observance for Hindu and Buddhist holidays? And why stop there? Why not special holidays for Mormons, Wiccans, Native Americans, Satanists, atheists (Christopher Hitchens’ death day when he became nothing comes to mind) and Jehovah Witnesses? Taken to its logical conclusion secular leftists like De Blasio (whose real religion is Progressivism worshipping the State as God) are paving the way for all city religious groups wanting an official holiday for themselves-with this eventually spreading to Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas and Los Angeles, etc. And the cacaphony and chaos this will cause locally and nationally will be so great (with children missing too many school days) that the solution will have to be the end of all religious holidays and their collapse into a single day of celebrating all religions called:

Frankly, since it’s PUBLIC school, paid for with PUBLIC funds, it should be 100% secular – NO religious holidays off, and that includes winter break for christmas and spring break for easter. School should run all year, with only Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day and Veteran’s Day (holidays of national meaning) off. We pander too much to religion, ANY religion, in America.

So the God Idea was born during the evolutionary period of mankind known as the “Bronze Age?” Is that your theory? Meaning what? That prior to the “Bronze Age” or “Copper Age” the God Idea was unknown and yet to be invented? That during the Copper Age mankind was pure, untainted and uncorrupted by the belief in supernatural things? Is that what you believe? Does that mean then that your mission in life is to rescue mankind from Bronze Age thinking and consciousness and restore the godlessness of the wiser, older, more enlightened Copper Age? If so where then does that leave the “Iron Age” in your scheme of things? Was that even freer from the God Idea than the Copper Age? Is it the Iron Age mentality that Congress and our classrooms need to return to? Please clarify.

No,
not millions, but thousands of muslims are committing atrocities by
acting according to Islamic strictures. And MILLIONS of muslims agree
with their efforts and perpetuate this cult of death with their
propaganda, and that’s really what the Islamic faith is, propaganda.
It preaches hatred for Jews, death to non-believers, and future
supremacy over all. It’s an aggressive ideology that is ripping the
world’s peace asunder, just as did nazism about 75 years ago. Don’t

//”the verses you speak of in the Quran have a context of war and the has to be seen in perspective.”//

This is called being “essentialist”. You now presume to tell us what Islam is or is not, proscribes and prohibits, and what texts mean and how their contexts is to be seen. Much like Muslims blame counterjihadists of doing.

It presumes that Quran-Hadiths-Sira, MIG (Most Important Guiding) Texts for 1,6 billion Muslims, are essentially clear, having only one meaning.

But we might present the case that Quran-Hadiths-Sira (QHS) are not up to a standard of good enough Clarity, Completeness, Constistency, Contemporanity as our MIG texts (Constitution, laws) are.

Instead QHS are highly ambiguous, unclear, incomplete, obsolete (and immutable). This means it is all up to the interpretation of the followers

and here the difference is apparent with Bible-followers; the Islam-followers are arguably nowadays much more prone to being violent, supremacist, totalitarian, anti-Democratic etc. than the Bible-followers.

Yes, other people have often committed atrocities, in the names of other religions. And no, it is not as bad as millions of Muslims committing daily atrocities.

BUT because the non-Muslims may well have something that is a better alternative to Islam, with society and gender-relations etc, something they consciously choose over Islam when their ideals and Islam contradict.

And non-Muslims may want to defend themselves and loved ones and their preferred societies. And in a case of danger to these it is considered reckless, negligent of duty to “relativist”, and, against all information and common sense, deny and ignore danger. By democratic citizens. If the situation were reversed, then the Muslims would be concerned, wouldn’t they?

People like you and Neville Chamberlain will in such cases, when it is too late, be blamed. Are you prepared for that?

Suna, religions deserve NO respect. None at all. What respect does Islam warrant exactly? In fact, I’d treat all religions the same: Out of our schools, out of our government, out of public life altogether. Religions should be STRICTLY limited to homes and places of worship. That’s it, that’s all.

Now, Suna, let’s petition the NY school board to include ALL freaking religious holidays as days off. You do agree right? Now, we are offending Buddhists, Sikhs, Jews, Taoists, Shintoists, American Indians, etc… I hope you do not stand for that !

Regarding your comment at Loon Watch to DrM, do you know his real identity? He blogs anonymously at his own blog preaching hate against everything, western, http://drmaxtor.blogspot.com
which is his own blog. Since 2007 he has been a heavy contributor at
Loon Watch. Some say he is the founder of Loon Watch.

His real name is Dr Rushdi Cader
https://www.linkedin.com/pub/rushdi-cader/6a/a23/175 and typical of stealth jihadists, anti-semites and anti-West jihadists, he hides his real persona because he wouldn’t be able to teach law enforcement officers

http://www.swattrauma.com/PRACTI-SEAL/About_Us.html

Dr Maxtor AKA DrM real is the founder of the Umma Clinic in California. He was deported from Israel along with other doctors.
http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/2002/588/re5.htm

If his bosses knew he was a hate preacher he would be fired.

//”Admittedly the most muslims are attacked by these terrorists more so than “kuffars” but still lets hate all iof them.”//

That is such a strawman argument! Not at all what Pamela Geller is saying!

But we can hate a bad religion can’t we? and we can regard a religion as a person’s choice, can’t we? Islam seems to have MIG (Most Important Guiding) Texts, that in part are directly to our own MIG-texts (constitution, laws, values), ideals, like democracy, freedom (of speech among them), human rights, golden rule. Or at least a part of it’s followers think and act that way.

Don’t bother so much about hate, please. Or do, but then not only the hate OF our side, but also the hate AGAINST our side, in Islamic countries, even in the Quran itself. When you detest Pamela, why don’t you detest MOhammed? Just because the latter lived earlier and has more followers? Please don’t measure with double standards.

We say; either let them all at it with the “hate”, because hurting FEELINGS (on the internet that is) is allowed. Just put the red line at hurting BODIES and inciting to that.

Great idea; lets celebrate and pander to the ideology that caused the biggest atrocity in the city ever, if not the whole country.
Funny how as a society we’ve got to the point where patriotism is demonised but a religion whose sole purpose is to have everyone be the same is celebrated and pandered to.

This is a spiritual war. Christians are filled with the Holy Spirit, Muslims are filled with àn evil spirit . This war will not end until Jesus Christmas returns. The only thing that came save a Muslim is the love and salvation of Jesus Christ. We will be in this battle until He returns. Socialists follow a different spirit as well, their god is government and self-pleasure. They places themselves above God Almighty, just like satan, the real god of all who follow these various spirits, they are full of pride. No country that turns against Yahweh will flourish. If you want to know the real truth behind our country’s continuous fall from grace, read “The Harbinger” and “The Mystery of the Shemitah” by Jonathan Cahn. What you will learn is that there is only one God Almighty and He decides what nations rise and which nations fall. Then do the right thing and call on God our Creator and turn your life and eternal salvation over to His Son Jesus Christ, and the scales will fall from your eyes and He will show you the truth behind all things. In Jesus’ name I pray you at least take time to research this. Peace is only found when you completely turn to Him. The time of organized religion is fading, now is the Holy Spirit filled ones who follow only Jesus Christ time to step out and follow Him and Him alone. Boldly.

The scales have not fallen from your eyes if you believe Jonathon Con.

Reality 101…

1st the veil was rent in two, BY GOD. – Matthew 27:51

Thus because of the importance of the veil – -> No More Judaism

People (like you) didn’t / don’t believe that,

so, a short time later, the DESTRUCTION of the Temple, also by God.

No veil

+

No Temple

=

Judaism is become a false religion.

Making the words of Jon the Con, lies.

Proof?

ok…

Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? – Acts 15:10 KJB

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. – James 2:10 KJB

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. – Galatians 3:24 KJB

But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
– Galatians 3:25 KJB

Dear Ape, there was no discussion of the law, you replied very angrily, I pray you turn to Jesus and repent and be filled with the Holy Spirit. Jonathan is a Christian who God has used to reveal the judgment coming upon America because we have turned from the Christian roots our country was founded upon. We are electing officials who are turning our country further from God each day, thus bringing us under further judgment. The scales I spoke of are blinding unbelievers into thinking government or some leader can change things. God reveals things to His prophets before they happen in hopes of us listening and repenting and returning to Him. It is not too.late for you or our country to repent. I pray you and our country do so today. Read your Bible, its all there.

Then there are the ones who actively plot to kill Americans that are here in record numbers too…so to recognize these beastly blood soaked “religious holidays” where beating yourself bloody or cutting the throats of animals to watch them suffer is considered a religious holiday is about as unamerican as it gets… This mayor should be hung for being a traitor! Pam, how did this monster get elected ??? Certainly there couldn’t be THAT MANY MUSLIMS IN NYC THAT VOTED HIM IN OR ENOUGH TO SWING THE VOTE??? Say it ain’t so that they’re becoming a powerful voting block ?! What the hell is wrong w New Yorkers?! They watch this mayor disrespect the police, race bait w Al sharpton and with his own narrative … Now openly pandering to muslim masters ?! I would think of any city NYC would protest this just in principle to 9/11? We’re in bigger trouble than I thought..

Those statistics being thrown at us by the criminal attorney general and compliant MSM about race, arrests and Ferguson PD are in reality unremarkable and just what would be expected for a municipality being reportedly 64 percent black.
We know that blacks commit all manner of crimes from minor to serious and violent, excluding so-called white collar crime, at disproportionately higher rates. So if blacks are 64 percent of Ferguson it’s no surprise they comprise 80-some percent of arrests. This is simply a statistical analysis of a police department doing it’s job — that is, protecting the lives and property of a largely black community.
If blacks in Ferguson get pulled over at a higher rate that whites, that again is the result of the police department doing its job, enforcing the rules of the road, which blacks are, not surprisingly more likely to violate, by driving erratically and under the influence of drugs and alcohol,, to failing to keep their licenses, registrations and insurance in force, to driving mechanically unsound vehicles, in addition to the PD’s responsibility to keep illegal guns out of the hands of criminals and in so doing enforcing a de facto “stop and frisk” policy of the kind that reduced violent crime significantly in New York — before the fool and weakling De Blasio put a stop to it.

They don’t count. I’m starting to think that the Biblical flood wasn’t a raising tide of oceans but a flood of people who displaced previous inhabitants and utterly erased the former from memory. 40 days and 40 nights have often been a metaphor for 40 generations. Muslamists have.shown to be more effective in erasing prior cultural inhabitants than what mankind had ever witnessed before in its entire history, much of which has been lost forever…

“and honors its contribution to the city [of New York]”. You mean like the “contribution” muslamists made to the city on 9/11/2001? Where muslamists contributed to the horrifying deaths of about 3,000 people? Give me a break… More islamification of American children. Work out the numbers, 1 million out of 8 million people comes out to be 12.5% and that’s well over the threshold established by muslamists to consider the land they occupy to be muslamists land holdings. What started as a trickle will quickly become a deluge. A plague of locus have nothing on what islam does to those they conquer whether through all out warfare or political subterfuge.

Really disappointing and alarming. Moslems make up only 1%–ONLY 1%, people–of the NY City population, which means 99% either don’t care or find it offensive. With 17% listed as secular, Blahbio should’ve instituted Seinfeld’s “Festivus.” THAT would have been more fair…. AND more popular!

No religion in public schools. None. Eliminate ALL deference to religion in public education. This would eliminate any and all religious teaching and field trips and holidays. If parents want religious instruction, send your children to religious schools and/or home school them. (All kinds of Christians, even of modest means, are ditching public for private and home schooling.)

Just another example of extravagant spending on the part of a Mayor and Council that is intent on bankrupting their city. Implementing holidays is a very costly move and yet again the tax payer is left paying the bill for a man that is out of control with the public purse. If muslims want their holidays off- then take them off nobody would care. They haven’t earned the privilege of having America recognize any of their religious holidays. For that matter they have given Americans more reason not to recognize anything pertaining to their religion than the other way around. Contrary to what our President may think we are at war with the ideology of Islam and muslims represent everything our country has fought against since the beginning.
