FWD: Al-Gebra latest threat
FWD from a friend: Al-Gebra latest threat
'There are three sides to every triangle'.

from the Internet
A teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a compass, a slide-rule and a calculator. At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-Gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.
'"Al-Gebra is a problem for us," the Attorney General said. "They derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values." They use secret code names like 'X' and 'Y' and refer to themselves as "unknowns", but we have determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country.
As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every triangle'.
When asked to comment on the arrest, President Obama said, "If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, he would have given us more fingers and toes." White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the President. It is believed that the Nobel Prize for Physics will follow.

What follows is an extremely graphic account from a survivor of Al-Gebra indoctrination tactics. Reader discretion is advised.
Yes, I concur that this is a profound and dangerous form of terrorism. I was subjected to Al-Gebra torture four times and barely survived. It was the repeated demands to "solve for 'x'" that nearly drove me irretrievably mad. I bear the invisible scars of the mental torture.
As they screamed "three sides... three sides... three sides to the triangle... Say it! Three sides" I kept trying to explain that there are really four sides to a triangle (three sides and the base). They accused me of being a fraction of the Plane Geometry movement, even as they demanded that I admit to "three sides"...
Send the Al-Gebra practitioners to the International Criminal Court in The Hague for the inhumane treatment of student prisoners!!!
