Help Stop Islamic Infiltration Into Washington's Public School System

Dear Concerned Citizen/Parent,

On August 22nd, The Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) sent a letter to all 295 school districts requesting special accommodations for Muslim children during Ramadan and other holidays in addition to requesting speaking time during show and tell to teach all children about Islam and Muslim holidays.

The letter alerted educators to the possibility that there might be students fasting and to notify parents if there were any problems, which is completely appropriate. It also went on to ask for special accommodations for them to not have tests or assignments during this time. We find this special accommodation out of the ordinary and unacceptable.

The request to have CAIR speak at a show and tell is unequivocally unacceptable as CAIR continues to be an unindicted co-conspirator in one of the nation's largest terrorism trial, the Holy Land Foundation trials in 2008. These trials resulted in guilty verdicts on 108 charges of funneling more than $12 million to the terrorist organization, Hamas. Later that year the FBI cut all ties with CAIR. Four Congressmen called for an investigation of CAIR for violating federal laws regarding their non-profit status and this year, another congressman called for an IRS investigation.

CAIR has questionable ties to terrorism and should not be allowed anywhere near the children of this state.

In addition to this blatant attempt to get into our public schools to teach Islam, our Washington State textbooks are filled with inaccurate accounts of history regarding Islam and actually teaches the 5 pillars of Islam along with the Shahada prayer (when said, technically makes one a Muslim). How would most people feel if our students were taught Christianity or Judaism and the “sinner's prayer” in public schools?

Furthermore, activities involved in these lessons have included, taking Muslim names, facing Mecca and performing the prayer positions, as well as art projects including the 5 pillars and jihad. Field trips are taken to mosques where the children are being proselytized, segregated and led to participate in prayers. Would this be acceptable if children were taken to a church, preached at and then led to the altar to pray? Not in a public school. But Islam is getting a pass.

We need to know what our kids are being taught in the public, tax-payer funded schools, so to allow you to hear and see for yourself what is being taught and hear from students and parents, we are inviting you to a
