hmmm... i don't see in this article where it says that... but.. regardless of that, i think this particular incident should not have been blown up to make it appear to be an action particularly against muslims -- it is obvious this teacher should have been removed even before this incident, for general inability to function in a professional position. i think CAIR would have done more good by pointing out that islam is against all types of bias and bigotry, and is against any and all disrespect of any person for any reason. they could have put this whole thing back into perspective by emphasizing that it was about a rotten person who acted against all sorts of people. i think to make this one part of the teacher's behavior any different from all the other offensive things this person did is to make it seem that the concern of muslims is for muslims only, which i think creates barriers and makes the ones already there that much harder to ....vaporize. charmi
