Pennsylvania Awards $5 MILLION To Terrorist-Linked Islamic School Working To ‘Impose Islam On The World’ That Called America ‘Toxic’

 Pennsylvania has allocated $5 million in taxpayer funding to expand the Al Aqsa Islamic Academy, a private Islamic school associated with the Al Aqsa Islamic Society. This award has raised concerns due to the school’s statements about American culture and its educational objectives focused on Islamic teachings.

Funding Details: The $5 million will be used for additional classrooms, a gymnasium, and community spaces at Al Aqsa Islamic Academy, which aims to grow student enrollment from approximately 300 to 3,000.

Cultural Views: The school's handbook states, “Our Culture Is Toxic To Muslims,” warning families about outside influences and promoting an Islamic worldview among students. This view is intended to encourage students to develop a strong Islamic identity and spread Islamic teachings to others.

Curriculum Focus: Al Aqsa offers courses in Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh), Quran memorization, and Arabic, alongside other subjects. The focus is on forming students' character in alignment with Islamic principles.

Controversial Background: The school’s parent organization, Al Aqsa Islamic Society, has connections to individuals involved in the Fort Dix terror plot. These individuals attended the mosque and had previously volunteered there.

Expansion Plans: Al Aqsa aims for significant growth, with plans for a large project that will include a new mosque accommodating up to 2,440 attendees, as part of a $43.6 million initiative.

Sermon Issues: The mosque associated with the school has previously hosted an imam who made antisemitic remarks and called for the imposition of Islam's teachings, highlighting the controversial nature of its religious leadership.

The funding of Al Aqsa Islamic Academy by Pennsylvania has sparked debate over the appropriateness of taxpayer dollars supporting an institution with a stated intention to promote Islamic teachings and a critical view of American culture. The expansion of the school raises questions about its broader impact on the community and educational landscape in Pennsylvania.
