Tel-Chai Nation

Israel, much like the fortress of Tel-Chai that Jospeh Trumpeldor fought to defend against Arab conquerors in 1920, finds itself beseiged by enemies both within and without. Terrorists, would-be friends inside and outside Israel, and even bad government officials. Here are the discussions of one proud Zionist resident on the state of the nation and abroad.


Mandatory Arabic classes were planned for Texas schools, but have been prevented

These plans by the education department in Texas were thankfully canceled. Why would it not have worked? If it was planned by the Obama administration, well then...you can only guess.

I do have to debate one thing featured in this article though:
"Part of the grant language brings in targeted instruction that will be embedded in the classes," Escovedo explained. "Algebra comes from the Arabic world. You talk about things while you’re doing your lessons. Instead of a Valentine's cake, you might make a Moroccan dessert."
I'm not sure that's true. Algebra, as it so happens, may have originated in India, and just traveled through to other places via the Arabic world. In that case, the dummy who brought this up is not a very educated person.
