Apparently, Muslims in New York are upset that the new principal of the city's public "Arabic-themed school" (Madrassa) is a Jewish woman, Danielle Salzberg. "It's like somebody spit in our face as Arabs," said Zein Rimawi, a "Muslim activist."
I don't see what all the fuss is about. If you think that public tax dollars should go toward educating students in a public Muslim school, then you give the government control over that education.
You want to pick your own principal? Then use your own money...
