The Muslim Veto

When the Left decided that the word “religion” was bad, they quickly forgot their reason for the declaration. It had nothing to do with religion and everything to do with Christianity. In fact, in Lib-Speak, the word religion is a synonym for Christianity. The trouble with that is they forgot that their own whack-a-doodle belief-set is a religion and they lost the ability to properly deal with a religion that is willing to take them on, toe to tow. They now find themselves giving ground to Muslims on their home turf.

Montgomery County Public Schools will remove religious labels from school holidays, but members of the Islamic community say the adjustments to the school calendar do nothing to gain parity and a day off for the Muslim holiday of Eid.

The school board approved the school calendar for the 2015-2016 school year Tuesday. The calendar will no longer reference specific religious holidays but rather state simply that school will be closed on dates that correspond with holidays, such as Eid, Yom Kippur and Christmas.

Saqib Ali, a former Maryland state delegate and co-chair of Equality for Eid, was not happy with the board of education’s action Tuesday.

“Equality is really what we’re looking for,” Ali said. “Simply saying we’re not going to call this Christmas, and we’re not going to call this Yom Kippur, and still closing the schools, that’s not equality.”

A few things worth mentioning here. Montgomery County is a liberal stronghold. Many of the Cult’s famous members live there. For instance, Chris Mathews lives in the whites-only town of Chevy Chase Village, which is in Montgomery County. It is not Marin County, but more a respectably WASP version of it. The same beliefs, but far less ostentatious.

The big item in that selection is the quote from the savage. The savage says they are looking for equality, which is total nonsense. Islam does not play well with other religions. That’s a fact backed by 1400 years of evidence. The savage is also doing what the Left has always done in America. That is, equate a microscopic minority with the vast majority. There are very few  Muslims in America, but they demand equal footing with Jews and Christians, who are orders of magnitude more populous.

Again, we see the similarities between Islam and Liberalism.

Of course, this just points out two things. One is the Founders made an error regarding freedom of religion. It was an error they could not foresee. They never imagined Christian Europeans surrendering to savages on their own lands so they never thought to ban the savage and his religion from America. It’s too late to ban Islam from America, something that will happen one day, but not now. Instead, we should ban all immigration from savage controlled areas. Some will slip in, for sure, but keeping these people in their 50 or so countries should be a priority.

School board members said they were sympathetic to the desire to have Eid recognized and close schools but that legal precedent in Maryland bars them from closing for religious purposes.

“We can’t close for religious holidays. We can only close for operational purposes,” like high absenteeism, school spokesman Dana Tofig said.

That explanation doesn’t sit well with Zainab Chaudry, with the Council on American Islamic Relations.

“What’s really concerning to us is that similar conditions weren’t placed on any other faith community,” Chaudry says.

In the 1970s school officials decided to close on Jewish holidays because of high absenteeism.

But school board member Michael Durso said that the schools effectively close for a religious reason: the schools had high absenteeism because of a religious holiday in the community.

Noting the attempt to move away from favoring religions by instead referring to school days off as “winter break” and “student holidays,” Durso said as long as the Islamic community’s concern for parity wasn’t somehow addressed “it comes off as insensitive, and I just think we cannot afford to be in that light”.

That drew applause from parents who filled the seats in the board of education’s meeting room.

The adoption of the 2015-2016 school calendar does give students the day off on Eid but only because it happens to fall on another school holiday, Yom Kippur.

Several school board members, Chris Barclay, Judy Docca and Michael Durso, made it clear that they want to see a permanent policy change but that discussion would continue.

Board member Judy Docca acknowledged Tuesday’s action does little to satisfy a community that’s been waiting for years to see a change.

The fact that the vast majority of people in the County now have to flush their culture down the drain to satisfy these savages who don’t belong here is never mentioned explicitly. As I’ve said many times, I’m not a religious person. I come from a culture and people who have been shaped by and inspired by Christianity and that heritage is important to me. It is important to the overwhelming majority of people in Montgomery County.

So, the people there should adopt the Islamic solution. That means beheading the school board members for apostasy and then chasing every Muslim out of the county. That way, we can all celebrate Islam together one last time and also get our country back.

Instead, look for the Muslim Veto to come to your town next, as soon as you get your first Muslim.

But school board member Michael Durso said that the schools effectively close for a religious reason: the schools had high absenteeism because of a religious holiday in the community. Next year the school board should do a survey and determine how many students are absent for religious reasons on a given Muslim holy day. If there is high absenteeism, as there is on Christian and Jewish high holy days, the board can act to close the schools on that day in following years. However, if only a few students are absent, the board must be consistent and apply the rule… Read more »

Another reason Leftists align with the Moslems is because they are fellow travelers in the quest to undermine Western values, which eventually leads to the destruction of Western Civilization. The Muslim Brotherhood has as one of its stated goals, the destruction of Western civilization from within. Leftists and Moslems both espouse a supremacist ideology where conformity is prized and expected, and questioning and dissent is not welcome. While some people are distracted by the “adjustment” of the school calendar to suit the Moslems in Maryland, skirmishes like this are occurring all over the country. And nearly every time, the Moslems… Read more »

The Left will love Islam until the Moslems reach a critical mass of population, but by that time it will be almost too late. Look at what is happening in Europe. Moslems are 8% of the population in France, roughly 5-6% in other European countries like Germany, Austria, Great Britain, 4% in Denmark. These sound like low percentages, but they are not. There are many “no-go” areas in France, where not only non-Moslems do not dare go, but neither do the police. People, like Geert Wilders of Denmark, who dare speak the truth about Islam, are arrested and tried for… Read more »

How is this “their own whack-a-doodle believe set is a region” supposed to read?

The Marylanders can’t bring themselves to face the issue head on, so they try to evade it by renaming the holidays. To face the issue squarely they need to say to the Muslims: 1 – Islam presents itself as a religion, but it functions as an invasive political tyranny. 2 – Islam never seeks functional equality, it always seeks domination. 3 – We are sensitive to the needs of the American culture, And Islam is fundamentally incompatible with it. Therefore, we will never give Islam parity with the Christian and Jewish religions in this country. Go home and practice Your… Read more »

The left doesn’t love Islam. They hate normal Americans. If Islam and normal Americans were friends, the left would instantly discover that they had always hated Islam. Note that when they do condemn anything a Muslim does, they do it by likening him to the REAL terrorist Neanderthals: Normal Americans.

I wonder if the GOP presented itself as the “Party of Islam” if the left would have a knee jerk reaction to go to war against Muslims. Would they be simple enough to fall for that?

Thank goodness the leftoids don’t try to build a church in Saudi Arabia or Iran, as that is strictly against the law in those god-forsaken places. Mind you, as useful idiots the leftoids wouldn’t want to build a church any place other than make a temple to their own unpleasant ambitions and shifty ‘heroes.’ Islam indeed doesn’t play well with anyone else but that is the whole point. In the muslim ideal there is nothing else in the world by the time they have finished. Parity? That would be all men worshipping in one direction and all women in full-length… Read more »

SO…set your keyword recognition algorithm to “Truman”, and the impending bullet point phrases in the upcoming “script” involving Iranian Nuclear
“negotiations” by the Executive Branch, WITHOUT the expertise of any “high ranking career military” that MAY have survived forced retirement, or “lateral promotion”, in the last six years.
Look for incredulous couplings with “un-American” in the same paragraphs as “peaceful energy and medical”, as well as “Iran’s Rights”.
