Students Told to Call 9-11 Hijackers ?Freedom Fighters?

Feb 26, 2013

By Todd Starnes

An Advanced Placement World Geography teacher at a Texas high school who encouraged students to dress in Islamic clothing also instructed them to refer to the 9-11 hijackers not as terrorists ? but as ?freedom fighters,? according to students who were in the class.

Students at Lumberton High School were also told to stop referring to the Holocaust as Genocide ? instead they were told to use the term ?ethnic cleansing.?

John Valastro, the superintendent of the Lumberton Independent School District, told Fox News that the teacher did absolutely nothing wrong.

?What is more dangerous ? fear and ignorance or education and understanding,? he asked. ?From our standpoint, we are here to educate the kids.?

Valastro said the teacher involved is a 32-year veteran who was simply following state teaching guidelines.

?I don?t think my freshman-level teacher was trying to politicize radical Islam or anything like that,? he told Fox News. ?I don?t think our teacher has..to my knowledge ever converted a single student to Islam.?
A Texas mom became outraged after she discovered a Facebook photo of her child wearing Islamic garb.

A Texas mom became outraged after she discovered a Facebook photo of her child wearing Islamic garb.

The Islamic lessons in the small public high school generated national attention after a photograph of four female students wearing burqas surfaced on Facebook.

April LeBlanc?s 15-year-old daughter was one of the students in the photograph. She told Fox News that many parents in the district feel betrayed by school officials.

?My biggest thing is not the burqa,? she said. ?That was the key to opening up the rest. It?s scary how far they dove into the Islamic faith. It?s scary what they taught my daughter. Who?s in charge of this? How did our superintendent let this slip through the cracks??

LeBlanc said the students were told that they could no longer use the terms suicide bomber or terrorist. Instead, they were instructed to use the words ?freedom fighters.?

?This teacher taught her that a freedom fighter is when they give their life for the Holy War ? and that they?re going to go to heaven,? she told Fox News. ?They were saturating these kids in Islam and my daughter is an American Christian child.?

Madelyn LeBlanc told Fox News that it was clear her teacher was very uncomfortable lecturing the students.

?I do have a lot of sympathy for her,? the 15-year-old said. ?At the very beginning she said she didn?t want to teach it but it was in the curriculum.?

Her mother added that it was her impression that the teacher did not agree with the quote about calling the terrorists freedom fighters and laced her lecture with sarcasm.

During a lesson on Judaism, LeBlanc said the teacher told the class, ?Students, I?m supposed to be politically correct and tell you that the Holocaust was not Genocide. It was an ethnic cleansing.?

    READ: STUDENTS DIRECTED TO DRESS IN BURQAS

LeBlanc said her daughter kept detailed notes of every classroom lecture and as she read the transcripts she became disturbed.

?Really,? she asked. ?They can?t call the Holocaust Genocide? I was more upset with that than the lessons on Islam. It made me sick.?

And then came the comparison between the 9-11 hijackers and the freedom fighters.

Madelyn said a young man sitting beside her was stunned.

?He was shocked that we had to call them that,? she told Fox News. ?He laughed and asked the teacher, ?Is that a joke? Are you serious? Why do we have to call them that? That makes it sound okay (what they did) And it?s not.??

Madelyn said the teacher didn?t know how to respond.

?She said it was something we have to learn for the end of the year testing,? she said. ?I?m sure it was very difficult for her to do.?

Madelyn said the lesson about freedom fighters made her feel ?terrible.?

?That made it sound like what they were doing was okay,? she said.

The superintendent also defended the lesson on freedom fighters.

?The whole idea behind this particular lesson ? do you call yourself a freedom fighter or Islamic jihadist ? or whatever it is you want to be called ? you?ve got to put things in perspective,? the superintendent said. ?We?re trying to teach the kids to discern for themselves that one thing can be called many different things.?

Valastro said it?s important for students to understand context.

?We might see it as terrorism, but from the Islamic side they might call it jihadist or freedom fighter,? he said.

The superintendent said he was not aware of the specific comments made about the 9-11 hijackers ? but conceded there was only one side to the attack.

?I do agree it was a terrorist attack,? he said. ?But in several classes across this country, you?re going to have a make-up of students from all over the world in your class. We teach it as an act of terrorism ? whereas they are teaching it to their kids as a revolutionary event.?

Fox News has learned that the lessons were not part of a controversial statewide curriculum called CSCOPE. That program has generated massive criticism for being pro-Islam and anti-Christian.

Janice VanCleave, a vocal CSCOPE critic and the founder of Texas CSCOPE Review, said that may be the case ? but the fingerprints of CSCOPE are all over the AP class.

?With or without the lessons, the class was using required information set by CSCOPE and required by the superintendent,? she said.

VanCleave said she was personally disgusted to learn that Texas school children were being taught that the 9-11 hijackers were freedom fighters.

?This has to stop right now,? she said. ?Texas superintendents and school board members are to blame for CSCOPE being in Texas schools. Anyone of them that promotes the use of the title of freedom fighters for those who destroyed and killed so many on 9-11 need to be removed from our schools today.?

VanCleave said school administrators who support CSCOPE are ?working to destroy Texas education and teach our children untruths.?

One controversial lesson actually instructed students to call the Boston Tea Party a terrorist act.

?The Boston Tea Party (participants) were freedom fighters,? she said. ?The 9-11 hijackers were terrorists.?

Valastro blamed the controversy in his district on outsiders.

?The unfortunate thing is we have a group in Texas that has politicized our curriculum,? he said. ?It?s unfortunate this teacher is getting beat up in the middle of this so people can make political points.?

As for the Boston Tea Party ? the superintendent said it goes back to perspective.

?We were revolutionaries, but on the British side of the ocean we were destroying their content and they saw it as a terrorist attack,? he said.

LeBlanc said she was especially bothered by the lack of emphasis on other religions. She said there were hardly any lessons on Judaism and none on Christianity.

?I wondered how it was okay for them to go so in-depth into a religion from the other side of the world but it was not okay for them to be like that with Christianity,? she said.

?I try to stay open-minded,? she said. ?I don?t want my daughter to be ignorant about the world. My kids watch the news with us. We make them aware. I don?t even mind the high school teaching these things.?

But, she added, there was no balance.

?They can talk about how important Mecca is ? but why aren?t they talking about how important Christianity was to the founding of the nation,? she asked.

LeBlanc and other parents said they feel betrayed.

?We trusted these people,? she said of the school system. ?It scares me. I feel like our school is being infiltrated. How can this not be a sign? We?re talking about Lumberton, Texas. We?re talking about a small town with Christian churches on every street corner. Right in our small school this is going on.?

Hmmm...? Re: Air Force Contract -

The LAS bid process received strong support from political leaders and members of Congress from many states, including Florida, Nevada, Colorado, Texas and Oregon," SNC said in a press statement on Friday.  ???
"We appreciate the many members of Congress and other officials who supported a fair and open competition. We are particularly grateful to the many Florida state officials and members of the Florida congressional delegation who assisted in establishing a production facility in their state that will result in the creation of new jobs, bringing prosperity to their communities."

New York City Allocates $500K to Fight Feds on Deportation
By Steven Nelson
July 17, 2013
http://www.usnews.com

Immigration advocates are thrilled that New York City is footing the bill for a pilot program to provide free legal representation to people fighting deportation.

The City Council allocated $500,000 in June for the pilot program, with Speaker Christine Quinn ? a candidate for mayor ? taking the lead in shepherding the funds into the fiscal year 2014 budget, advocates say.

"There really was no controversy because the statistics bore out the injustice," Angela Fernandez of the Northern Manhattan Coalition for Immigrant Rights told U.S. News.

Non-citizens living in the U.S. without legal permission aren't guaranteed a free lawyer in non-criminal deportation cases.

Immigration law is "as complex as tax law," Fernandez said. She pointed to a research conducted by federal judge Robert Katzmann that found defendants without attorneys prevail less than 10 percent of the time in immigration cases.

"If they have access to a high-quality deportation defense attorney, their chances of prevailing is 67 percent," she said.

The Vera Institute of Justice, a legal advocacy group, will administer the program and approve grants to experienced non-profits whose attorneys specialize in immigration defense.

Fernandez said is costs up to $4,000 to defend a person during the course of immigration proceedings.

"The stakes are pretty high," said Brittny Saunders of the Center for Popular Democracy. "Folks who are detained, in many cases on minor infractions of immigration law, have no right to counsel ... so they're going up against federally trained attorneys."

Fernandez and Saunders agreed that the pilot program - officially called the New York Immigrant Family Unity Project ? is the first publicly funded endeavor to defend immigrants against deportation, and they hope it will become permanent.

Quinn's office confirmed to U.S. News that the program was funded in the city's recently approved budget.

The immigration advocates, attorneys and Quinn are scheduled to discuss the program during a Friday event at Yeshiva University's Cardozo School of Law

KOMO-TV reports that the city's Office of Civil Rights instructed city workers in a recent internal memo to avoid using the words because some may find them offensive.
