US Taxpayers Pay To Teach Islam – Course Topics Include ‘How Can New Muslims Cope With Non-Muslim Relatives?’
Bob Unruh / WND
U.S. taxpayers are supporting a new government program overseas to teach students about Islam that, according to critics, attempts to convert the impressionable into becoming Muslim.
According to the Gatestone Institute, a non-partisan nonprofit that works on international policy issues and reports to the public, the new program is being run by the Czech Republic but is funded by a grant from the U.S. Embassy in Prague.
A descriptive page found on the website for the project, called “Muslims in the Eyes of Czech Schoolchildren,” attests that the funding is from a U.S. Embassy grant, the Anna Lindh Foundation, the European Commission Representation and the Prague library.
The program, according to coordinator and lecturer Klara Popovova, has the “patronage,” or support, of the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports.
The Obama administration has taken criticism for the president’s bowing repeatedly to foreign dignitaries, including the king of Saudi Arabia, and statements such as the U.S. “no longer” is a Christian nation.
He’s also boasted of Muslim contributions to American history while forcing employers and employees to fund abortion, even if it violates their faith.
The report from Soeren Kern at Gatestone notes that critics are blasting the program for having as its underlying objective the conversion of non-Muslim students to Islam.
It happens, they charge, by bringing proselytizing messages into public schools “under the guise of promoting multiculturalism and fighting ‘Islamophobia.’”
