This. Half the world could be dying of war and starvation but we must focus on remembering the Holocaust. Does anyone else besides Jewish people matter to some of you?


I get your point but trauma can make people self-centered. Jews are a traumatized population.

They are not the only traumatized people FFS.


True. But the only group in the last century where 6 million of its members died because of attempted systematic state-sponsored genocide. .


And now many members of that group act as if they have earned the right to kill up to 6 million other people, most of whom had nothing to do with their Holocaust, with no questions permitted. It is absolutely repulsive.

To address recent ethnic cleansing of Palestinians world requires remembering ethnic cleansing of Jews. Never again should mean never again for anyone, not just for one group or the other. Islamophobia should be as unacceptable as antisemitism.


Agree with you. 💯 percent. Unfortunately it’s a morally consistent position that many Jews are unable to understand right now. That’s why any position of compassion for Palestinians is called out as antisemitism.

I can't imagine a school that has been around as long as Nysmith that would not be measured in its response when claims of anti-Semitism are made, especially in this political environment. Expelling the students seems like a radical thing to do - there must have been some reason. So - I take this complaint with a grain of salt and look forward to the school's side of the story before prejudging.


Likely but not necessarily. Students protesting against Israel's ethnic cleansing were treated ruthlessly so you never know.

That the family said they don't trust the school to educate their children, why would the school then keep them? What exactly do you think should have happened here (not sure what they are trying to get exactly from the lawsuit, other than attention and a big payday)?


It’s definitely telling a lot about how the school targets children, thus ensuring compliance from parents. That’s the only clear lesson to be learned.


Let’s all just jump to wild conclusions. Facts be damned.

For those of us who canceled our WaPo subscriptions in light of Bezos’ censorship perhaps someone could use a gift link or summarize what was said?

What did the parents do that makes them colossal bullies? What suggests they are misrepresenting what happened?


So, you don’t want to fund the weapons because bezos controls the editorial page, and you want the paper to shut down even though you are desperate for the reporting the journalists do? Make it make sense.

You’re just cheap.


Well you sound like a nutter. I’m not desperate for the reporting WaPo writers produce. Their journalistic integrity is in tatters, which is why so many journalists left rather than face being compromised.

Happy to pay for real journalism, which is no longer available from WaPo. I was curious about what inspired the post calling the parents bullies. Not enough to renew my WaPo subscription tho.

Well it originally required students have a certain minimum IQ and be classified gifted. They don’t require that anymore.


Like that couldn't possibly be gamed...from its inception this is a school that's catered to parents who desperately want their kids to be seen as special snowflakes. Toxic leadership, obnoxious parents, and kids left in the crosshairs.

Actual question - how does a 7 year old game an IQ test?


They don't, but it evolved over time from an IQ test to a test as to whether or not the parents' checks cleared. Parents very much wanted to believe that their kids were special and paid to have "for the gifted" in the title of the school. Eventually, the business model became untenable so the hard criteria became markedly softer.

And now they target families whose kids didn't get into AAP. There's a school in Herndon that they compete with for that, forget its name.
