As Ramadan comes to an end, it was not enough for a member-at-large on the Fairfax County School Board to simply say Eid Mubarak in celebration of the festival. Abrar Omeish used it as an excuse to weigh in on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as Israel fights to defend itself against Hamas terrorists.
A parent from the school district brought this to Townhall s attention, noting it as an example of her concern for publicly partisan school members.
As the parent noted, the post comes from Omish s public Facebook page, where she campaigns and discusses business as it pertains to the school district. As of Thursday night, the page has 5,042 likes. The parent shared that the post is flaming community outrage and maybe causing some in the community to feel isolated. She also offered her take of who is to say which side is correct and then teachers and students may get into tussles during class that will distract from the lessons.
The government’s internment of Japanese Americans was a grave violation of civil rights May 13, 2021 I By BRITTANY HUNTER
On February 19, 1942, just two months after the Japanese military attacked Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066. The emergency order “relocated” 120,000 Japanese Americans to internment camps in the Western United States. The internment order would not be lifted until 1945.
Of those individuals held in the internment camps, over two-thirds were American citizens who were treated as foreign enemies because of their ethnicity. The remaining one-third, while not yet citizens, were immigrants hoping the United States would offer them the chance to pursue the American dream. These were not enemy combatants they were neighbors, moms and dads, and children.
