what happens in some classes...part 2

Monday morning. Another class with my (sarcasm coming) favorite teacher, the same spoken of before.
I spoke with the Rabbi last week, expressing my concerns of this teacher, as well as her adherence to the topic of her class. He assures me he will address the problem.
The first half of the class goes by fairly innocuously. Alas, this, too, will pass.

We are discussing why it is important for Jews to stick together, literally, secluding ourselves from the rest of the world (the topic of the class is the book of Genesis). Teacher explains that ‘our’ [Israel’s] commitment to the ‘annihilation of terrorism’ is what gives the US the courage to stand up to Bin Laden. Annihilation. There is a good plan for a peaceful ending. And a good word for a native English speaking teacher to use to her students, some of whom are particularly impressionable. Strike one.
Then the topic turns to the Jew’s innate attraction to the land of Israel, evidenced by even those like ‘Herzl, who turned [his] back on the Torah, on Hashem!’ who were drawn to the Land.
Just because people are Haskalah does not make them heathens. Who are you to place such judgement? Living in a glass house…
