Islamic Saudi Academy and the ISNA Schools

A Saudi-funded school in Washington, D.C. is on the rocks for promoting hatred. From that article:
The 11th-grade textbook, for example, says one sign of the Day of Judgment will be that Muslims will fight and kill Jews, who will hide behind trees that say: 'Oh Muslim, Oh servant of God, here is a Jew hiding behind me. Come here and kill him,' " the article said.

It goes on to quote several students of the school who say they are taught in Islamic studies that "it is better to shun and even to dislike Christians, Jews and Shiite Muslims."

One teen, who recited by memory parts of the Quran, told the Post he's taught by academy teachers that it's OK for Muslims to hurt or steal from such "kaffirs."
And Canada?
Saudi-funded as well, the ISNA runs both an elementary school and a high school in Toronto. Is that same grade 11 curriculum taught here, as in DC? Is there anyone here who reviews these things, as they apparently do in the States? Or do we just take the ISNA on their word that they're clean and "progressive"? (The actual word for themselves, "progressive" -- though, I could have sworn adhering to a literal interpretation of a medieval text wasn't the most progressive thing in the world). Regarding the Arabic texts, the school in DC, no doubt thinking that no one would check, said they were "clean":
What about the Arabic texts? He doesn't read Arabic. But the Saudi Embassy, which controls the school, assures him they're clean.

The nonprofit Freedom House recently translated a sample of those cleaned-up official Saudi texts and found they're still indoctrinating students to wage jihad against the infidel to "spread the faith."
When the advocates for Islamic schools in Ontario say that worry of them is "unfounded," are they speaking the same way the Saudi embassy was? As I said in my last post, watch out for taqiyya.

*UPDATE*

Similar phenomenon in Britain, from Gates of Vienna: "a new survey conducted by think tank Policy Exchange that reveals a message of hatred for non-Muslims found in within a significant number of Britain’s mosques."

  1. You do realize that the ISNA, for propaganda purposes, has put up the Canadian white convert and willing Jihadist tool Ingrid Mattson as its figurehead president?

  2. That's great anon.

    Ingrid Mattson Courses Taught:

    The Qur'an and Its Place in Muslim Life and Society.

    Whose syllabus includes Islamist: Sayyid Qutb, 'In the Shade of the Qur’an'

    Sayyid Qutb is described in Wikipedia as: "His extensive Quranic commentary Fi Zilal al-Qur'an (In the shades of the Qur'an) has contributed significantly to modern perceptions of Islamic concepts such as jihad, jahiliyyah, and ummah. In the West he sometimes described as 'the man whose ideas would shape Al Qaeda.' "

  3. Good digging gals/guys.

    Hating the West and Westerners was a hobby-horse for Qutb. This hate many Muslims have taken up as a philosophy, like some sort of 19th century anti-Semite politics.

  4. Another day, I was busily typing away at my laptop computer once the front doorbell rang. My youthful neighbor boy was anxious to notify me that our dog had chased a little one robin into our yard pond. He imagined I would like to know.

  8. Wherever you go
    Whatever you do
    I will be right here waiting for you
    Whatever it takes
    Or how my heart breaks
    I will be right here waiting for you

    I took for granted, all the times
    That I thought would last somehow
    I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
    But I can't get near you now

  12. As the original article outlines, a school cafeteria, Bluff's, started to offer halal foods. Ahmad Jaballah, an MSA executive, criticised the move, saying, “This initiative was brought forth solely by Bluff’s without ever consulting the MSA or Muslim students.
