[Charisma News] The Texas State Board of Education is moving forward on a proposal to reconfigure the state's educational standards. The proposal includes teaching high school students that radical Islam was behind the September 11, 2001, terror attack. The educational material states that students will "identify the significance of September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks motivated by radical Islam, including the roles of George W. Bush, Colin Powell, and Condoleezza Rice, the launch of the Global War on Terror in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the decline of civil liberties due to the PATRIOT Act." Students will also separately learn about the "teachings of jihad and how these teachings led to the expansion of Islam and the conquest of Christian lands including Jerusalem, Syria, and Egypt," and explain the "rise of radical Islam, including Iranian proxies, terrorism, Al Qaeda, September 11, 2001, and Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS)."...
