[ May 5, 2024 ]
News has surfaced that two Newton, Massachusetts public high schools required students to pretend they were Muslims from different time periods who were making the Islamic holy pilgrimage to Mecca, also known as Hajj. This isn’t the first controversy Newton Public School District (NPSD) has faced regarding their Israeli-Palestinian curriculum; in 2011, the school district came under fire when they assigned what some parents accused of being an anti-Semitic world history book. The book was later removed from the curriculum. Newton is not alone in the state’s Muslim indoctrination agenda: in 2014, only fifteen minutes away in Revere, Massachusetts, public schools were caught forcing students to recite the Shahada, or the Muslim profession of faith used to convert non-Muslims.
The “Cities: Connecting the Islamic World” assignment that was delegated earlier this school year required students to take an imaginary pilgrimage that imitates Hajj. Students were broken up into groups and each group was instructed to be different Muslims from different regions and different time periods. The students were then instructed to build tents as traditional in Bedouin culture and set up cultural artifacts pertaining to the group they were assigned. And yes, that’s the same Bedouin culture still trafficking children as young as two years old for camel jockey racing.
The Hajj is the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, set at the end of the Muslim calendar year; it will take place from August 19-August 24 of next year. If you have ever wondered what that black and gold box in your emoji bank is, that is the Kaaba, also known as “The Cube,” and it is a building Muslims chant around in the center of Islam’s most sacred mosque as part of their pilgrimage. The Hajj is special to Muslims, in part, because their beloved Prophet Muhammad set the current tradition of traveling from his home to Mecca after claiming he was told by Allah to leave his wife and son and travel the desert. Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam, and is a mandatory journey for all Muslims adults who are financially and physically capable of undertaking the trip. The journey is seen as a demonstration of “solidarity amongst the Muslim people and celebrates their submission to God.” It is the largest single gathering of people in the world.

It is important to understand that requiring high school students to participate in the Hajj is forcing them to partake in a Muslim religious activity. In the Hajj assignment at NPSD, students are required to actually take part in a practice the purpose of which is to celebrate submission to Allah.
This story originally broke from Judicial Watch and Citizens for National Security, who said they have been trying to get documents about the Newton Public School District for years and that the Newton school board and superintendent were “very uncooperative” and “non-transparent” when it came to disclosing what was in their curriculum. Because of the superintendent and school board’s difficult behavior, Judicial Watch and Citizens for National Security said they are unsure whether or not they were able to obtain all documents relevant to this matter.
Conspicuously silent on this matter are the atheists, who are usually everywhere they are never asked to be, but nowhere to be seen when Islam silently takes over the school system. Over the summer, when public schools opened up prayer rooms for Ramadan, an atheist group called it “reasonable.” This is, of course, because atheism, communism, and the left go hand-in-hand. As Ben Shapiro so eloquently put it in his op-ed about feminists praising Hugh Hefner after his death, any destruction of Judeo-Christian American values is a victory for them.

There is no end to the dirty tricks that muslims will try and pull in their lies and deceit to force people to submit to islam. After these students have preferred the satanic rites of islam, in the future, they will be held to be accountable for their actions as muslims, completing with the same criminally insane murdering mullahs that instigated this abuse. Atheist and grovelling chicken are synonymous.

“There is no end to the dirty tricks that muslims will try and pull…”, because they know that our dirty political left approves of dirty tricks. These ‘criminally insane murdering mullahs” are supported by our criminally insane murdering left. PS: Hope you don’t mind me using your words – after reading them, I had no reason to leave my own comment – lol.

What I want to know is where are the parents of the affected children in all this? Not a thing with which I disagree happens in the Peel District School Board school attended by the grandchildren in my custody without me challenging it. That nobody else does a thing about what is occurring doesn’t bother me one iota. I long ago resigned myself to the reality that their’s is “the Canadian way” – like rolling over and playing dead!

Re: Rod Porter remark – After reading what was going on in the school, that was my first thought….’where are the parents?’ No school should be able to force any type of religious participation on any child at any age. Are they doing the same for the Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist and Christian religion?

“In the Hajj assignment at NPSD, students are required to actually take
part in a practice the purpose of which is to celebrate submission to
Allah.” “Required.” Well, that is one small step away from imposing forced conversion and requiring students to pray five times a day. Are their parents all asleep. What is going in with the people of MA?
“The students were then instructed to build tents as traditional in
Bedouin culture and set up cultural artifacts pertaining to the group
they were assigned.” That’s because tents are the only things in 1400 years, the filthy muslim could ever figure out how to construct, besides a better hijab. They are more preoccupied with taking from everybody else to be concerned with self-preservation.

Katie, your references to CAMERA in this article are quite confused and some are flat-out wrong. CAMERA is anything but pro-Muslim, and in fact some of your article notes this, e.g., “CAMERA published a book, (not the same book used for the Hajj assignment) detailing their issues with Newton schools, entitled, Indoctrinating Our Youth: How a U.S. Public School Curriculum Skews the Arab-Israeli Conflict and Islam.” As the title implies, this book exposes how the Newton School district indoctrinates youth with anti-Israel propaganda.
Had you followed your own link to “Wikipedia’s Jew Problem,” you would know that the article attacks Wikipedia for their anti-Israel bias, and does not, as you imply, traffic in anti-Semitic stereotypes.
Finally, I’ve no idea where you got the idea that CAMERA refers to themselves as “God’s Muslim Warriors.” That is flat out untrue. To the contrary, CAMERA has a long track record of exposing Muslim and Islamist bias against Israel. They could more accurately be described as “Israel and the West’s warriors.”
Such sloppy reporting does a disservice to those of us who need truth in the battle against Islamism. I hope that this web site can do better in the future.

I was surprised by what she wrote about CAMERA as well, their website doesn’t indicate anything about God’s Muslim Warriors and I thought their organisation’s goal was to correct lies and propaganda being spread against Israel by the enemedia.

Republicans are so desperate that elections are coming up that they are putting a bill on the table to terminate the Dept of Ed. If that miracle were to occur, then it would be entirely up to us, as usual, to make sure we elect the right State legislators because they will have the power to determine curriculum and we already know too many are pro ‘the religion of death.’

The tools of Islam, our educators, should be fired; it will not come to pass. This nation is awash with those with their heads buried deeply into the fathomless end of their favorite orifice. Our children are being subjugated to Islam by subversives, those we trust in educating our children. Pathetically, most educators, if not all are allied with the totalitarian, autocratic tenets of Islam, Marxism.
If those with whom we have placed our trust in making this Republic great again do not commence in the dismissal of these so-called educators; this Republic will fall to the leftist/Islamist’s toxic pestilence.

Atheist are usually Marxist, Socialist, and Communist which believe in totalitarian form of government. Islam is also a top down
totalitarian system so “birds of a feather, flock together”. That is why Atheists always side with Islam. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Pamela, there’s a serious mistake here. Camera is a pro Israel; pro Jewish organization. They would never refer to themselves as gods muslim warrioers (except as irony). And Wikipedia;s Jewish problem deals with the antisemitic bias of Wikipedia. David Duke and the Electronic Intifada have major influence in that anyone-can-post encyclopedia.. Camera would also not support Newton’s anti Israel/anti-Semitic curriculum..I have hesrd these people speak and spoke to one over the phone. Camera’s goal is to correct media distortions of Israel and expose antisemites such as Ashley Banfield.

This article has to be edited. It reads like CAMERA is a taqqiya shop. It’s the opposite. It’s a pro-Israel organization that monitors lies and propaganda seeping into school curricula and mainstream media reports on the subject of Israel.

Where are the atheists now! They can protest a cross, but not this! Have the parents done anything, like get these people fired, or all get together and keep their children home until something is done, isn’t it unconstitutional? Does the school have reinactments of pilgrimages to Bethlehem or Jerusalem?

What happened to separation of church and state?Why are schools teaching our youth muslim religion?Why was God taken out of everything?This county was founded on Christian values.Obama set the standards and opened the borders and encouraged muslims to come and infiltrate our government,cities,schools.They want to kill infidels-Christians-and believe they will be rewarded in an afterlife for killing Christians.It must be stopped.They are here.I followed 2 muslim men around in a store.They were discussing guns in a foreign language.When they noticed I was watching they tried to go around the aisles and lose me but I followed them all the way out of the store.My husband was embarrassed but I may have stopped a mass shooting.As long as people are too embarrassed to do anything,all is lost.We must stand and fight back against muslim.It is not a religion of peace.It is a religion of religious persecution of non-believers,that is not peace,it’s murder.

I had the pleasure of graduating from one of these fine Newton establishments. I was among the Goyim (non-jews) at the 80+ % Jewish school. My classmates were generally fine and decent people and I left with great respect for my Jewish classmates. What really grates me to this day though is how many of the Jews will not stand up against this sort of activity. This sort of indoctrination is directly targeted at the Jews, and Christians for that matter and neither are standing up and shouting against it.

This article really missed the boat by lambasting CAMERA. I don’t know how Ms. Jones got her wires crossed, but CAMERA is one of the oldest, most respected, PRO-ISRAEL websites, dedicated (as their name says) to “Accuracy in Middle Eastern Reporting in America,” to counteract Muslim agitprop, “Pallywood,” and other false anti-Israel propaganda. The referenced “Wikipedia’s Jew Problem” article is PRO-Israel and points out how Wikipedia is being plagued by ANTI-Israel trolls who maliciously vandalize Wiki websites that make any reference to Israel. Let’s set the record straight on that, please.

Remember these are high schoolers. Young, strong with an ideal. The slums are allied with the antifarts and the BMer’s or black supremacists. All young, getting more and more organized. These are the types that moved through the streets and attacked the Jews in 1930’s Germany. Those people lacked any compassion, borderline sociopaths (look at the uptick in autism) They can’t even respond to a “Good Morning”, they hold to group think, mob mentality. They want their “utopia” as long as you become irrelevant and they run the show. Marxism never worked in the past because the “right” people weren’t in charge. We know how to do it they say. They convict us in mass because of your color, the way you dress, what you say or don’t say, the way you think, what you read or don’t read. Hmmmm maybe just maybe they may require a permanent mark or a number to PROVE you are part of their group. Almost sounds Biblical doesn’t it.
