Where Our Taxes Go – To Build Madrassahs!
Will the CZ Master Association's Hoffman Report recommend Coto residents learn Arabic?
July 26, 2007
A public school, some argue is simply a madrassah,
is set to open in Brooklyn NY shortly.
Consider that the school's principal designate is Dhabah
Almontaser. Almontaser
a self-described 9/11 denier, speaking to a
group of sixth graders in Brooklyn's PS 51 Almontaser
stated, "I don't recognize the people who
committed the attacks as either Arabs or
Muslims."
Further, Almontaser , according to PipeLine
News, believes that American foreign policy was
responsible for the 2001 attacks:
"Today
I believe that the terrorist attacks can have been
triggered by the way the USA breaks its promises with
countries across the world, especially in the Middle
East and the fact that it has not been a fair mediator
with its foreign policy."
In an interview with National Public Radio on July 13, 2006
she likened the American response to 9/11 to that of
totalitarian excess:
"right here in this
community...we stated to see people literally
disappearing....the police came and took them in the
middle of the night and we were like what is going
on..."
Proponents of the school claim that the focus is not to
promote Islam, but rather teach students Arabic.
So, when students can no longer legally say “one nation
under God” when reciting the Pledge of Allegiance,
when Christian students are no longer allowed to pray
in public schools arguing “separation of church and
state”, yet public schools are ordered to make
special arrangement for Muslim prayers, when there is
a national morbidly-obese epidemic due to lack of
funding for physical education and nutrition, now
students can be ready to meet the challenges of the 21st
century by learning Arabic – using our tax money!
Wondering whether the CZ Hoffman Report will also recommend Coto residents learn the language

For years we have argued that civil liberties afforded
