Education or Indoctrination? Executive Summary is Available

Here is another draft I forgot to complete and post.  Just another reminder of how BHO aided the enemy.

__________

ACT! For America's 'Education or Indoctrination? The Treatment of Islam in 6th through 12th Grade American Textbooks Executive Summary' is published and well worth reading.
__________
This Executive Summary represents a summary of the findings of ACT! for America
Education’s analysis of the treatment of Islam in thirty-eight, 6th through 12th grade
American textbooks that date from 1999-2011. The full Report reveals a pattern of
historical revisionism, omissions, and bias in the presentation of all aspects devoted to
Islam in these textbooks. These aspects include its theology and doctrines, its role as a
world religion, its on-going struggle with Western tradition, and its intrinsic anti-Semitism.

Since the mid-1990s, the number of units devoted to Islam in world history textbooks has
significantly increased while the number of pages allocated to Judaism and Christianity
has conspicuously decreased.1 This disparity raises the question as to whether the
inequality represents what would amount to the validation of Professor John L.
Esposito’s unsubstantiated claim of the existence of a “Judeo-Christian-Islamic tradition”
for America.2 What’s more, the predominant place given to Islam in these textbooks
highlights the issue of proselytization in the classroom, an issue raised by parents in
Byron County, California when they claimed that their children were being indoctrinated
in Islam.3

Methodology
The Report investigates the treatment of Islam in thirty-eight, 6th through 12th grade
American textbooks that date from 1999-2011. The Report begins with the Rationale for
the project and proceeds to an examination of the origins of efforts to influence American
education, including an examination of Saudi Arabia’s plan for influencing American
education, funded with billions of dollars from the mid-1970s until present time.5 The section examining Saudi Arabia’s plan contains material from doctoral dissertations,
published in this country from the early 1980-1990s. The selections included in the full
Report are representative samples from hundreds of historically flawed dissertations that
were approved and then recognized as sources of reputable research by major
American universities, thereby becoming instrumental in furthering the implementation of
Saudi Arabia’s plan to influence all levels of American education that had as its objective
the influencing of American foreign policy with respect to the Middle East.
According to Dr. Robert D. Crane, a scholar and a prolific writer and expert on subjects
ranging from law to economics to international affairs and Islamic jurisprudence, and a
co-founding board member and former Chairman of the Center for Understanding Islam,
“Mansuri has rewritten the required textbooks on religion for 37 of America’s fifty states,
thanks to unlimited funding by America’s first homegrown Muslim billionnaire, Safi
Qureshey. Selecting the appropriate textbook is no longer a problem, because once
California adopted the set of textbooks that Shabbir prepared for the various grades, the
publishers had to adopt it in order to make a profit.”6

Mansuri is credited as saying that “he is waging a `bloodless’ revolution, promoting world
cultures and faiths in America's classroom” and that the “CIE has warned scholars and
public officials who do not sympathize with its requests that they will be perceived as
racists, reactionaries, and enemies of Islam.”7 However, there is nothing about
Mansuri’s background on the earlier CIE websites or on the current IRPCV site that
would render him as qualified to rewrite textbooks.
