'Intifada NYC' Principal Sues NYC


Gee, never saw this coming.
The founding principal of the city’s first Arabic-language school has filed a lawsuit in Federal District Court against the city’s Education Department, Chancellor Joel I. Klein and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, claiming that they violated her right to free speech and “conspired to deny her the opportunity to regain her position as principal” of the Khalil Gibran International Academy, in Brooklyn. The principal, Debbie Almontaser, resigned under pressure this summer, following a furor that erupted after she was quoted in The New York Post defending the use of the word “intifada” on a T-shirt sold by a Brooklyn-based organization of Arab women. Last month, Ms. Almontaser said she was a victim of a smear campaign by conservatives and would apply to get her job back. But Education Department officials said they would not consider her application among the 25 others that were submitted at the time.
Waaaah!
