Minnesota madrasa

Minnesota publicly-funded madrasa doesn't fly the American flag

Tarek ibn Zayed Academy, which receives public funds but has been accused of being an Islamic school, doesn't endorse any religion -- so says its Executive Director. Got it. But it just happens that the Executive Director and everyone else involved with this school is an adherent of a supremacist creed that disdains national allegiances, preaching that one owes no loyalty to the state, especially to the infidel state, but only to the global community of believers. Now of course, maybe the Exec Dir and his staff and all the students reject those elements of their religion, and are fervently patriotic and loyal citizens of the United States, firm believers in the Bill of Rights who -- by an amazing coincidence -- just can't figure out how to work the flagpole.

I'm sure there are already many defenders of this school who are ready to believe just that.
