HS Students Say Pledge In Arabic: ‘One Nation Under Allah’

The principal at Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins, Colorado, is facing a hailstorm of criticism from some very angry parents and residents.

The school recites the Pledge of Allegiance weekly, on Mondays. Last Monday, a member of their “Cultural Arms Club” led the student body in an Arabic version of the pledge, replacing the words “under God” with “under Allah.”

Principal Tom Lopez denies any attempt to push an Islamic agenda, saying, “These students love this country. They were not being un-American in trying to do this. They believed they were accentuating the meaning of the words as spoken regularly in English.”

Principal Lopez doesn’t make any sense. Speaking unintelligible words in Arabic in some way accentuates their meaning? That is an extremely weak argument in defense of an ill-advised decision.

He said the cultural clubs seeks to “destroy the barriers, embrace the cultures” that exist within the high school.

That would translate into “destroy the barriers to Islam and embrace it,” correct, Mr. Lopez?

Soon they will have their own separate classes, with girls and boys separate from each other. The lunch menu will have to be changed to accommodate them. The English language will be treated as some sort of secondary language.

Haven't we learned from Britain?

Nope....Allah is a completely different connotation of god. If a Jew says it in Hebrew...not really different to me but the Muslims!....fuck that.

Who gives a flying fuck about what name the Flying Spaghetti Monster is given during the Pledge? 

Maybe a waste of time, but no more than that.  Y'all sound like paranoid freaks is what I think.

Sad happening.
Islamic groups are taking advantage of the west's inner weakness.

The problem is that someone thought it was appropriate for the kids to do this.   The person who made that decision has zero understanding of Islam and religion in general.
