A pre-school teacher in Texas was suspended, but not fired, after her employer found anti-Semitic hate speech on her social media.

Her name is Nancy Salem. She is a Muslim student at the University of Texas-Arlington and is also a member of the very anti-Israel group Students for Justice in Palestine. Salem teaches pre-K kids at The Children’s Courtyard in South Arlington. A hate watchdog group called Canary Mission found her offensive tweets and posted them online:

“@DictatorHitler: How many Jews died in the Holocaust? Not enough”

“Have a safe trip Lulu. I love you baby girl! See you in 3 weeks! Kiss the Palestine ground for me and kill some jews!”

“How was the copper wire invented? They threw a penny between two Jews. LOLACHAUST.”

“@hanansalemxo: I hate Makki more than I hate Israeli Jews and math combined.”

Once the pre-school found out, it issued the following statement:

“Our senior management team is working to address this matter. This in no way reflects the views of The Children’s Courtyard. We strive to provide an inclusive environment for all children, families and staff members. We also expect our employees to uphold standards of personal and professional conduct.”

Parents were outraged. Joyce Pustilnik said, “You have a pre-school teacher Nancy Salem working with little children. She is preaching murder of Jews. This is not the type of person who should have any contact with children. She should be fired immediately.”

“This school should be sued,” said Eva Najman. “How could you hire Nancy Salem, an activist with Students for Justice in Palestine at the University of Texas, Arlington to teach young children that ‘justice’ for ‘Palestinians’ means killing Jews? You should be shut down immediately.”

I don’t understand why this woman wasn’t fired. Why does it seem some people are more tolerant of anti-Jew hatred than for other ethnicities? Is it because she is a Muslim and the school is afraid of being “islamophobic?” Whatever the reason, this is angering.
