Education and Extremism

June 25th, 2008 by Adam

Al-Watan (via Ali Eteraz) discusses a recent move by the Education Minister of the United Arab Emirates to lessen the impact of Islamists in the education system. The recent decision transfers Emirati Islamists from the Emirates Reform Society to other ministries where they will not have contact with children. The move hopes to lessen the ability of Islamists to indoctrinate children with radical views and promote sectarianism.
