I bear witness that Muhammad is his prophet.”Parents are livid that the public school in the Boston suburb of Revere, Massachusetts is requiring all students to study the prayer that Islamic terrorists force Christians to cite in order to become Muslim, lest they be killed as infidels. The school superintendent will not yield, saying that teaching Islam is required in history class.
