Muslim College opens in United States


Let’s just get to the bottom line: Here is an update courtesy of Al Jazeera. In August 2010, I posted about the Muslim college being opened in Moonbat City, Berkley, Here . What the video isn’t telling you:

Bottom Line: Zaytuna currently offers two majors, a choice of Islamic law and religion or Arabic language. Zaytuna held its first classes this summer — intensive study of Arabic to prepare for classes in the fall.

“The incoming students at Zaytuna College must pass a proficiency exam – – not in English – – but Arabic. Those who fail must enroll in the school’s “Arabic Intensive Program. … At the completion of their Islamic training, students, who specialize in Islamic theology, must pass an exit exam in tajwid – – the proper recitation of the Koran.

And behind this College? One is Zaif Shakir This is the same CAIR who said it was right for Muslims to attack Fort Bragg. Read here from Bunkerville we posted last November Cair Speaker said ok to attack Fort Bragg

Radical Islamic cleric Zaif Shakir, a frequent guest speaker at CAIR events, tells his Muslim audiences: “Jihad is physically fighting the enemies of Islam to protect and advance the religion of Islam. This is jihad.”

Acceptable targets of jihad, he says, include U.S. military aircraft. Shakir once told a Muslim audience.

Zaytuna College is a new four-year college in Berkeley, California. Zaytuna is seeking to become the first accredited Muslim college in the United States. The name comes from the Arabic word for olives. (Like I care.)

The process of full accreditation could take several years. That will make it easier for students to get financial aid, and to have their education recognized by employers and other schools. Right, we will be supporting terrorists.

 

Script from the video:

A Muslim college in the United States is the first of its kind, its mission is to join Islamic scholarship with the Western academic emphasis on free inquiry and developing critical intellectual capacities. Zaytuna College in Berkeley Californi is a fledgling institution with only 31 students, operating out space rented from a Baptist seminary. Al Jazeera’s Rob Reynolds reports from California.

    How ironic that this Shakir character would fall under Obama’s version of the NDAA detention mandate.

    —————-
    Stop me if I’m wrong but if the college does not have full accreditation, the students aren’t eligible for Federal financial aid, no?

    Doesn’t matter, I’m with you. Learning Arabic definitely constitutes terrorist training.

      I am with your point. There may be so called non profits who would be willing to give aid other than Federal I suppose if I wanted to split a hair, but I dont.

    Bunkerville, this is in reply to your statement on z’s board that we’re broke.
    She’s in a snit and couldn’t deal with basic economics so I’ll see if you want to reply. I assume that since “we’re broke” you wish to balance the budget.

    In national income accounting, savings come out of the existing money pool. Trade deficits also come out of the existing money pool. In the modern world, new money is generated by debt. If individual savings are growing, meaning individuals are not taking on new debt (for this purpose, corporations are in the class of individuals) and you run a trade deficit, then government (being the only other player) must create debt to enable the trade deficit. To actually have steady or increasing individual savings with a balanced government budget, you must have a net positive trade balance.

    The biggest importer of foreign goods, and thus the biggest single contributor to the negative side of the balance sheet is WalMart. Thus, WalMart must go to a different business model (or go out of business) if we force a balanced budget while millions of baby boomers try to save something for retirement.

    So now you understand why the Repubs rushed to destroy the budget when Clinton had balanced it and was planning to pay down the national debt. It would have forced business to come back to the US and rebuild – the ultimate Republican nightmare.

    Let me know how you propose to get out of this bind.

      For the most part, I doubt the GOP or Dems think that far or are that cerebral. They vote soley based on personal self interesst, on behalf of the lobbyist of the day who has filled their pockets the most. There is a crude word for it, but I will spare my readers.

    And then when you couple this with that school (in Texas I believe) which had its students recite the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic (not omitting God this time because it was Allah) and you have to think the indoctrination is well under way.

    “Islamic twist” … isn’t that what it’s all about. Even though those students mean well, the foundation is still what it is – based upon and in the Islamic traditional belief system. No Christian school like this would be allowed in the Islamic Nation as your post yesterday reports.

    And our Muslim leaning President thinks training jihadist in the “homeland” is just fine. Insanity in the asylum. What more could we expect?
