Muslim students in Brooklyn school wrestle with war
Nidal Abuasi principal of Al Noor School guides 600 students from kindergarten to 12th grade as missiles fall on Afghanistan. He urges critical thinking about the war and urges loyalty to country without abandoning faith, while teachers discuss Islam and politics with teens torn between birth nation and heritage schools. The school, founded 1995, is the largest Islamic school in New York with about 60 percent Arab and 40 percent South Asian students.
