Liberal lunacy in the classroom: 9/11 was just like bullying or something

It's enough to make your blood boil. Ten years later teachers are sanitizing and whitewashing 9/11 in a paean to "sensitivity." Yes folks, the kumbaya crowd has successfully watered down the deliberate slaughter of 3,000 people into indecipherable gibberish suitable for multicultural audiences of all ages.

A new curriculm guide being distributed here in Caldwell lets us know that we weren't "attacked," rather "a group of men who did not like our country did a very bad thing."

Yeah, and Pearl Harbor was just a misunderstanding.

The guide is a collection of over 100 lessons for grades K-12, customized for the maturity and suitability of broaching these topics at each grade level. Along with lessons directly on Sept. 11, it contains lessons that discuss related historical events, bullying, racial profiling, how to work past personal fears, the use of music and art to heal, and the different walks of life that make up life in America.

Geez Louise! We. Are. At. War. W-A-R. War. Say it, "war." 9/11 wasn't about "bullying" or "racial profiling." We don't need "healing." We need victory. We need our children to understand the stakes, to be taught the price of defeat, to know the name of our enemy.

Can you imagine the world we'd be living in if this mentality was prevalent after Pearl Harbor? For starters their idiotic curriculum guide would be printed in German and Japanese. Sadly the lessons of The Greatest Generation are lost on the social justice indoctrinators walking the halls of our public schools. Instead of "V is for Victory!" our kids are bombarded with mealy-mouthed victimology claptrap.

That's the windup, and here's the pitch:

The idea of the curriculum is to better educate the children of this state on the difficult issues of terrorism and hatred, because through greater understanding comes solutions to ending them.

Oh, so it's "understanding" that they want. How about understanding the goal of global jihad? It's not hard to find, Imams preach it from the minaret of every mosque day in and day out.

Their goal is to conquer the entire world and establish an Islamic Caliphate. They will settle for nothing less. Since we stand in their way, we must die.

Sorry if that's too direct a notion for your sensibilities. But it's the truth.

As for "solutions?" I'll let the great Sir Winston Churchill say it for me:

… We shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!

Never Surrender! It is our personal duty to defeat Islamic terrorism. Yes, duty. I know that's an old-fashioned word, but one that we well nigh need to rediscover. Let's inspire our children! Tell them about the heroes of 9/11, men like Todd Beamer and Fr. Mychal Judge. Remember the words of Barbara Olson, who asked simply, "what can I do?" She wasn't pondering any feel-good notion of community service; she was ready and willing to step into action against the forces of evil.

Should our children aspire to anything less?
