Dear Harold, It’s bad enough that countless colleges and universities have accepted hundreds of millions—perhaps billions—in grants from Saudi entities. It’s bad enough that the textbooks used in public schools are typically laced with egregious errors, omissions, and outright historical falsehoods on the subject of Islam. (See the ACT! for America Education report here.) Now we learn that, according to multiple media sources, the Tucson public schools are going to accept nearly a half million dollars from the Qatar Foundation, which the Daily Caller story below reports has “strong ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.” A few years ago a congressional staffer told Brigitte Gabriel and Guy Rodgers (ACT! for America Executive Director) about a college that had been accepting Saudi money for years.

Two Tucson schools, Safford K-8 Magnet School and Cholla High Magnet School, will be the recipients of the terror-infested cash, according to Tucson News Now.
