Wayne, NJ schools chief is SORRY for painting ISIS as a terror group

Pray for the kids of Wayne, NJ: If the “adults” running its schools are any indication, they’ll grow up unable to recognize evil , let alone fight it.

We’re looking at the apology from Mark Toback, Wayne’s superintendent, after a question on a middle-school quiz identified the Islamic State as a terrorist group, drawing heat from the radical, anti-Israel group Teaching While Muslim.

The question: What is the name of “a terrorist organization that commits acts of violence, destroys cultural artifacts, and encourages loss of life in order to achieve its goal of global rule under strict Islamic Sharia law?”

The correct answer: the “Islamic State,” or ISIS.

TWM called that “anti-Muslim” — and the district folded like a cheap suit.

“The question was offensive and contrary to our values of respect, inclusivity, and cultural sensitivity,” came Toback’s plea. “I sincerely apologize.”

Next: Axing lessons about Nazis to avoid offending Germans.

Toback partly blamed software for the “offensive” question. Is he really that ignorant about ISIS that he doesn’t realize the software produced truthful info?

Or just fearful of being called an Islamophobe?

Either way, kids lose.

ISIS is a terror group bent on violence “to achieve its goal of global rule under strict Islamic Sharia law.”

And kids absolutely should know that.

If anything, the question understated ISIS’s savagery: It chops off heads and enslaves and rapes women.

It’s spread terror and caused countless deaths in Iraq, Syria and elsewhere .

A branch took responsibility for slaughtering 137 people in a Moscow concert hall just this March.

The State Department has flatly labeled its many branches terrorist groups; the US intel community’s 2024 Annual Threat Assessment predicts ISIS will keep trying “to conduct and inspire global attacks against the West and Western interests.”

Not only should no one apologize for such questions; they should be required for students.

If Wayne’s superintendent can’t see that, he needs to find a new line of work.
