Debbie Almontaser, principal of Khalil Gibran International Academy, the controversial public Arabic school set to open in Brooklyn (about which Daniel Pipes has much illuminating background here), has resigned -- just days after her dissembling explanation of "Intifada" t-shirts. http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/017721.php | Remember the NYC Madrassa built and funded by tax payer dollars? Well they appointed as the principle a woman who supports an intifada in NYC, she has since resigned but this just proves EXACTLY what we've been saying all along. |

I can see why she resigned, as the controversy would have affected the school.
What exactly does this prove? |

She should have been fired and gotten that black mark on her record...though it wouldn't have mattered to the next islamist terrorist organization that wanted to hire her.
