Students Told to Call 9-11 Hijackers Freedom Fighters

[QUOTE="Ace6301"]If you assume they had this planned, and given how successful it was and how much preparation would have gone into this we must assume it was planned for some time, then it's clear the plan was to maximize the profile of the attack and not to maximize casualties. It's just a simple fact that they could have killed many more people. Could they have caused more impact though?PWSteal_Ldpinch

They could have attacked the statue of liberty which would have been a more symbolic blow to the image of the United States and would have resulted fewer casualties. In any case I'm done with this argument since it has devolved to pure conjecture without you or Worlock providing any statement from Al Qaeda that supports your argument.

The Texas-bashing here only goes to prove that OT is full of more ignorance than any state.  

Only thing I took out of this stupid story is the hilarious way in which it just shows how ridiculous people sound when they think any form of increased tolerance towards other view points is an attack on their own. Not saying I think anything in the article is justified, but I love how increased teaching and acceptance of Islam is automatically labelled anti-Christian or attacking Christianity. Pretty hard to relate to a group crying for tolerance of their own beliefs when they are so blatantly intolerant of others.

How about Nazi day where they go around refering to jews as (fill bad word in here) and do the Nazi salute all day?  Where do you draw the line in the sand?  How about a KKK day where you walk around in white robes and refer to klansmen as "race protectors?"

It could reasonably be argued that all of the 9/11 attacks were aimed at legitimate military targets ...

This was obviously true of the Pentagon.

It was also true of WTC1, where Boeing(a part of the military-industrial complex) was one of the tenants.

It was true of WTC2, where missile manufacturer and defense contractor Raytheonwas one of the tenants.

It was true of WTC7, where the tenants included the Department of Defense, CIAand US Secret Service.

There would have been few civilian casualties on 9/11 if these military targets hadn't been placed among civilians, so as to use the latter as human shields.

What's hilarious here is that the teacher and principal assumed other people from "different backgrounds" (Middle Easterners/non-Middle Eastern muslims) reagrd the 9-11 terrorists as freedom fighters...Also, what is "Islamic garb"? The burqa is not required for women to wear, only the Hijab (head scarf) when in public or in the company of non-relatives of the opposite sex. Muslims around the world wear different styles of clothing depending on the culture or region they're from...

[QUOTE="Laihendi"]The fact that politicians have a problem supporting vouchers for education proves that they are more interested in funding the schools themselves than the process of being educated. They are more interested in supporting institutions than in giving children an opportunity to learn. The answer to the question of what to do about funding public education/schools is very simple: stop funding them with stolen money.Laihendi

 not as such, no.

[QUOTE="Laihendi"][QUOTE="Aljosa23"]The irony here about you accusing public officials of not caring about giving children an opportunity to learn yet you support private education that only the rich can afford is hilarious. I'm also starting to think you're really just an elaborate joke/troll character.

That is not accurate at all. Do you have a credible source to support that claim?Laihendi

[QUOTE="Laihendi"]That is not accurate at all. Do you have a credible source to support that claim?Ace6301

That is just another picture. It doesn't mean anything if you don't have a credible source to back it up with. I could make a phony pie chart to support my claims if I wanted to, but I won't because I would rather have a serious discussion.Laihendi

you are truly awful at trying to decipher ulterior motives

[QUOTE="Ace6301"][QUOTE="Laihendi"] I live in the US. Anyways, I have done research on this person and he has worked for the UN and he wrote a book called "Economics of Poverty, Inequality, and Discrimination" which are all liberal talking points. He also works at NYU, which is where Obama's Secretary of the Treasury Jacob Lew worked for many years before being appointed by Obama. I am not saying that he is politically motivated, but it would not surprise me at all.Laihendi

Since when is Argentina a socialist country?

[QUOTE="Laihendi"][QUOTE="Ace6301"] Why would any of that bother you? You exclusively post biased websites. Also what State? Ever left it? Ever left the country?worlock77

What is your opinion of this style of "teaching?"

kingkong0124

Anyone who murders thousands of innocents is not a "freedom fighter," they are a terrorist (and similarly with calling the holocaust an "ethnic cleansing" instead of genocide). It doesn't matter what country they're from. If I were the principal I would tell this teacher their services were no longer required.chessmaster1989

You obviously haven't been to America if you think the wealth distribution is anything like that.Laihendi

i've never heard of such a thing
