Minnesotans Taxes Funding Madrassa.

Must make everyone in Minnesota happy knowing their taxes are going to a state funded madrassa. When checking the TIZA website I came across a jobs list. It stresses the importance of fluency in English. The last paragraph states; "Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy can process H-1 visa applications on behalf of qualified applicants." Hmmm

"Metro Charter School Accused of Teaching Islam"

A Star Tribune newspaper column has prompted a state investigation into a charter school. A substitute teacher said a school in Inver Grove Heights is blurring the line of separation of church and state.

Being a charter school Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy, or TIZA, is supported by tax dollars. The teacher told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS the presence of religion she observed at the school took her by surprise.

TIZA Executive Director Azad Zaman insisted the school follows with state and federal laws. "TIZA does not endorse any religion," he said.

However, TIZA Academy is sponsored by Islamic Relief USA, based in California.

Interesting tidbit on this:

State law requires the school to fly an American flag during school hours, however no flag flies outside of TIZA Academy.

Zaman told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS he didn’t know how to work the flagpole.

Doesn't know "how to work the flagpole"? I say he is speaking taqiyya.

Hot Air seems to agree TIZA Headmaster: We're too Incompetent to Operate a Flagpole
