UK Telegraph: Muslim Students Taught How To Amputate Thieves’ Hands – From Saudi Textbooks

With thanks to Gates of Vienna.

 Muslim students at private schools in England are being taught to cut off the hands and feet of thieves – from textbooks that come complete with diagrams of where to make the cuts (photo above).  The story published in yesterday’s UK Telegraph reports that the BBC links the schools to the Saudi embassy.  Predictably, the Saudis are officially denying any connection to the material.

 The educational enrichment provided to the kids includes assertions that Jews are planning to take over the world – and of course the regular, standard vanilla Muslim assertions connecting the evolution of Jews from apes and pigs – or vice versa.

 I make no mistake here -  the Brits invited this infectious doctrinal malaise onto their shores with years of a leftist policy permitting unregulated immigration that is based upon the theory that all cultures are relative and equal – we can all get along if we just tolerate each other a bit.  The problem is that it is everyone except those within the World of Islam who must do all of the flexing and tolerating.

 Here’s the link to The Telegraph’s report, along with some significant excerpts:

 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationnews/8150247/Muslim-pupils-learn-to-cut-off-hands-of-thieves.html

 “Up to 5,000 pupils attending weekend schools across Britain are being exposed to textbooks claiming that some Jews were transformed into pigs and apes, and that some offences could be punished with stoning. One book for six year-olds warns that those who do not believe in Islam will be condemned to “hellfire” in death.

Another text for 15 year-olds teaches that thieves who break Sharia law should have their hands cut off for a first offence and their feet amputated for a subsequent crime. Teenagers are presented with diagrams showing where the cuts should be made.

Tonight’s Panorama on BBC One will claim that the books were discovered at a network of 40 private schools teaching the Saudi Arabian national curriculum. The programme claims to have uncovered evidence apparently linking the schools to the Saudi embassy. Officials at the embassy deny any link…”

But there’s more.

“…The Saudi Ambassador told the BBC it was “dangerously deceptive and misleading” to discuss some of the texts outside of context…”

Now, that looks pretty sinister to me – the “dangerously” part of the ambassador’s statement.  Dangerous in what context?  Dangerous to whom?  Interesting stuff from the ambassador from a nation where thieves hands really are cut off and adulterers really are stoned to death.  Anyone else getting weary of the Saudis’ duplicity?  Anyone getting wary of our American heads of state showing such deference to the Saudi royal family?

How’s about we better re-think our immigration policies pretty quickly.
