STUDENTS DEFEND TEACHER DISCIPLINED FOR CALLING ISLAM ‘IDEOLOGY OF WAR’


After backlash following a report by KHOU 11 News on a Texas high school teacher calling Islam an “ideology of war,” students worry the teacher has resigned.
Breitbart News earlier reported about the school district disciplining the teacher after it learned he had passed out a pamphlet in his class describing Islam as an “ideology of war.”
Students and community members have come to the teacher’s defense. A petition with more than one thousand signatures has circulated calling for the school to bring back the teacher.
Peyton Green, a student who is a senior at the Texas high school, was in the class last semester. She said he used the same handout then, but there was no backlash or scrutiny from any students or administration.
