Muslims playing the jewish game

Muslim group protests school calendar

A Muslim group is reportedly demanding that a school system in Maryland remove Jewish holidays from its calendar.

The Towson Times reported that The Baltimore County Muslim Council battled the Baltimore County school system for three years over adding two Islamic holy days, Id al-Fitr and Id al-Adha, to its calendar, which would make them vacation days.

When the request was not submitted to a vote, the Muslim council demanded that the Jewish holidays on the calendar be dropped, calling it an issue of equity, said the Times.

I love this last bit:

The Times quoted him as adding that the decision to have Jewish holidays adopted as vacation days was economic, since it is too costly to hire substitutes for all the observant Jewish teachers.

Factoid: The U.S. Congress observes more jewish holidays than Christian ones (or at least it did last time I checked).
