Not a very thin veil

Creepier and creepier. Literally, as in Sharia creep, as Michelle Malkin puts it. New York City schools are poised to begin an Arabic public school.

The big argument in favor of American public schools has always been that they are the heating element of the melting pot. NYC, of all places, is now poised to fund an exercise that not only maintains separation, but actually helps to create and advance it:

Not only did the school fail to fill all 60 seats, but it hasn’t attracted a diverse student body, DOE numbers show.  Some 75 percent of students identified themselves as “black,” according to the department. It declined to provide an exact figure, citing privacy laws.

And this:

The DOE denied her request to serve “halal” meals sanctioned by Islamic law in the school’s cafeteria. It said the school would be treated like any other public school.  Students wanting the meals permissible under Islamic law can bring them from home, Meyer said.

It’s perverse. It’s backward. It’s Sharia.
