Teachers Union supports intifada in NY

The unions are already having a big problem because they seem to be communist rather than American, but by supporting a terrorist supporter it is actually becoming a traitorous organization. Can we send them all to the USSR?

RANDI RIPS 'INTIFADA' PRINCIPAL | By YOAV GONEN | New York News | New York City News | NY News: "But that support took a significant hit when Almontaser defended the shirts, first reported Monday by The Post, by defining 'intifada' as a 'shaking off' of oppression rather than acknowledging its widespread association with the call to violence among some Palestinians against Israelis. 'I'm glad she apologized quickly, but this is the kind of thing that you immediately say, 'No. People shouldn't have T-shirts like that. That's warmongering. That's preaching,' ' said Weingarten. 'That's something that ought to be denounced, not be explained away.' While Weingarten stopped short of calling for Almontaser's dismissal, she appealed for 'extraordinary oversight' of the school and its principal. Department of Education spokesman David Cantor said Almontaser's next-day apology should end the matter. 'She fully repudiated those statements,' he said. 'We're satisfied. We're moving on.' Ernest Logan, president of the city's principals union, agreed, saying, 'It's time to focus on educating the children.'"
