Subject: Today

Today I got into my car and cried. Not a few tears, I suppose I sobbed really. After having a massive row with kids, and watching them dance around the classroom and playground in absolute ecstasy and joy over the killings in America yesterday..

'Fucking Americans, they'll get what's coming to them'
'Fucking serves them right, they've been killing Muslims for years'
'This is just the beginning Miss, it's fucking cool, I've got all my cousins coming over soon to tear this place apart, the Americans aren't going to get away withg it for much longer.'
'This is only the beginning we're going to kill a lot more fucking Americans..'
'I hope there's a war, my family's going over to fight, and then after we'll be back'

They're also telling me how much they hate the Jews, and Americans and how the British are just as bad and they're next.

The muslims are so hard done by, we've been picked on for years, and such like is all I've heard all day..

"No-one ever helps the muslims, but everyone sticks up for the fucking Americans, it wasn't even their war, the war was between us and the fucking Jews, Do you know they're digging under our main temple - fuckers. We'll get 'em".

- I talked/ shouted until I was blue in the face, but the hate that was coming out of them.. I've never felt so desperate in my life...

Subject: The scary thing.

(as if this wasn't scary enough)

Is that apparently this isn't the end of the beginning, this is the beginning of the end. I've heard the plans for riots, trashing shops, hunting the jews and anyone that opposes the Muslims viewpoint on the atrocities in America.

This is the future of the Muslim Society in Bradford, and these are their views. I've witnessed the sheer joy at the deaths of thousands of Americans, I've heard the hate in their voices and seen the hate in their eyes.

Everything is hate, everything is bloodlust, and I've never been scared to teach in a school before - but today. Today I felt everything I believe in drain out of me and I left feeling empty. Maybe that's the way to deal with it. No emotion, don't rise to it, don't challenge their beliefs - I can't change a schools/ religions view on something, and after today and just 2 kids, I'm not fool enough to even try.

But this goes against everything I believe in. Everything that makes me who I am. Everything that makes us human...
