Copenhagen schools banning Jewish children
2009-01-07
A number of school administrators have come forth in recent days to confirm that they recommend Jewish children should not enroll at their schools.
For their own safety, of course. Why the police couldn't protect them I have no idea ...
According to school administrators, law enforcement officials and social workers, the on-going conflict in Gaza has led to heightened tensions between Jews and Arabs - particularly Palestinians - here in Denmark.
I think there's heightened tensions between Jews and Paleos most everywhere ...
Yeah, wouldn't want the children of apes and pigs to offend them. Maybe you can rent some cattle cars and set them up in some kind of annex?
And although few headmasters of schools have faced the situation, most of those at schools with a high percentage of children of Arab descent say they try to prevent Jewish parents from enrolling their children there.
Since these are 'public' schools ...
Would it be okay if they wore those gold stars sewn onto their clothes? So you'll know who to "protect".
On Monday, headmaster Olav Nielsen of Humlehave School in Odense publicly admitted he would refuse Jewish parents' wish to place their child at his school. The comments were made following an incident last week in which two Israeli citizen's were shot and wounded at a city shopping centre. Police believe the incident was a reaction to the Gaza conflict.
Olav likely approved of the shootings ...
Other headmasters have now come forth to support Nielsen's position, adding that they are putting the child's safety first.
Ah, it's for their own good. I guess that makes it okay then.
At Caroline Skole in Copenhagen's Østerbro district, video cameras watch over the playground and entrances of the school, which is surrounded by a 2.5 metre-high barbed-wire fence. One parent whose child goes to the Jewish school said thinking about the extra security can be disturbing at times, but she felt it was necessary.

Rabbi Bent Lexner called the headmasters' concern 'theoretical. In reality, Jewish parents would never try to enroll their child in those schools.'

#22  So, say I had a problem with redheaded kids and liked to beat them up. Would Mr Nielsen ban the redheaded kids for "provoking" my bad behavior with their presence?

I guess America doesn't have a monopoly on idiots running the school systems any more.

#19  Europe never changes and the Jews apparently still want to live there.

Western Europe is over guys. Come to America or Israel because the rest of it is going to the muzzie dogs.

#18  All the schools in the EU should have video courses starting in elementary school showing the holocaust followed by discussion. If a takes a cop with a truncheon sitting in the classroom to make the Muslim students behave during those classes - so be it.

#17  Like the Rabbi said, no Jewish parent would want their child going to one of those filthy, third rate, shitholes anyway.

#16  It would be wonderful to see the Queen escort a young lad or lass to the school for enrollment to make a point. If my recall of Danish history and society are correct, it would send a very powerful message that wet-pant school administrators and paleo-trogs could not ignore nor challenge except at their own dire risk.

#15  I've a few second or third cousins there (I've a few second/third/fourth cousins pretty much everywhere interesting). I hope they draw the proper lesson. Bottom line, any society that doesn't treat its Jews as equal citizens deserving equal protection under the law... doesn't deserve to have any Jews with all they bring wherever they live.

#14  Scooter has the right formula. It is the mooslams that have a problem with dicipline not the Jewish students.

#13  I side with the Rabbi. If there is rising violence present in the Danish society, it will certainly be present in the public schols. The school administrator may be purporting to take he moral high ground to the congradulatory noises of his peers, what he is really admitting is that he is a defacto prison warden of a penitentiary of which he admits he has no control. No decent parent would subject his child to shanking at recess.

#11  The Danes were the only EUros to stand up on the correct side of the Mohammed controversy. They have been staunch allies in the GWOT. This sounds like leftist academics trying to subvert the public will and implement their own leftist policies. I'll wait a day or two before hammering the Danes, though not their educationists.

#9  Maybe they could still attend.... but wear arm bands or something.

#8  Two thoughts - first, in the shooting at a city shopping center: how did the shooter know his victims were Israelis? And secondly, why do I hear a very cultured, pleasant voice saying, "So you see, the barbed wire around the facilities here at Auschwitz really is here to protect the residents..."?

#5  Yeah. They've been waiting a long time to do something like this, and now's the time. They must feel great about it, making it policy and all.

#3  How about they ban the Muslim students, since they are evidently incapable of civilized behavior -- hmmm?

#1  Excellent inline comments Steve.

Of course actually enforcing the rule of law never crossed the administrator's little bitty minds.
