I've heard a lot about this story. On CNN this morning, it stated that 67% of the school students were black. At this point, I haven't decided whether I support the school or not. Looking at it from all angles, I see no direct link to Islamic Extremists or any of their organizations. However, I will always have a bit of suspicion in the back of my mind as it relates to public funds being used to finance anything that promotes separatism.

I don't understand why there needs to be an "ARABIC" school in the US that is supported by the American, english speaking public.
