The Language of the Future

I admire the state of Texas for many reasons, not the least of which is their unswerving dedication to the rule of law.  How the school board members managed to slip this by unnoticed is something which needs to be answered, but for now the damage has been contained.

Read carefully, and understand that the claim that Arabic will be "the language of the future" is rooted in the belief that Arabs, or Muslims will be in a prominent position of power soon, and so understanding how to speak Arabic is paramount if we want to "get along".

The language of Islam is coming, if the MISD has it's way.

Mansfield Arabic Program On Hold

MANSFIELD (CBSDFW.COM) – A Mansfield ISD program to teach Arabic language and culture in schools is on hold for now, and may not happen at all.


The school district wanted students at selected schools to take Arabic language and culture classes as part of a federally funded grant.

The Foreign Language Assistance Program (FLAP) grant was awarded to Mansfield ISD last summer by the U.S. Department of Education.

As part of the five-year $1.3 million grant, Arabic classes would have been taught at Cross Timbers Intermediate School and other schools feeding into Summit High School.

Parents at Cross Timbers say they were caught off-guard by the program, and were surprised the district only told them about it in a meeting Monday night between parents and Mansfield ISD Superintendent Bob Morrison.

The Department of Education has identified Arabic as a ‘language of the future.’ But parent Joseph Balson was frustrated by the past.  “Why are we just now finding out about it?” asked Balson.  “It’s them (Mansfield ISD) applying for the grant, getting it approved and them now saying they’ll go back and change it only when they were caught trying to implement this plan without parents knowing about it.”

Trisha Savage thinks it will offer a well-rounded education.  “I think its a great opportunity that will open doors. We need to think globally and act locally.”

Uh Trisha, what we need is to think locally and act globally.  Think about how this affects local society, then act globally to stop the creep of sharia.

The D of E doesn't say Arabic is 'THE' language of the future, it says it is 'A' language of the future. Given the tumultuous events of the past few weeks, this should be obvious to all but the most bigoted Jewish-racist-posing-as-an-American-patriot. It's encouraging to see US Zionists being so dumb as to oppose learning Arabic. Unfortunately, Israelis are smarter. They learn Arabic so they can torture information out of Palestinian prisoners.
