That is why you bring those young children here.  So you can influence them.  Those children are like blank slates.  You either influence them or the jihadists will.  It's that simple.  Besides there are thousands of good, law abiding, peaceful muslims and middle easterners in this country.  Many of them are highly educated: Doctors, doctors, more doctors, engineers, lawyers, entrepreneurs, teachers.  What modicum of knowledge I have about advanced algebra and trig, and it is not that much, I could not have learned were it not for middle eastern tutors and teachers helping me out in remedial classes.

So why not leave their best and brightest in place to influence their own country...aren't we doing them a disservice by pulling their best here?

The left is always claiming that the US is very unfair to the rest of the world...isn't stealing the best from all nations the epitome of unfair?

There is probably no way to estimate how much this country has benefited from the intelligence and brain power of ethnic minorities from the 10 40 window.  They have probably contributed to every high tech innovation from the past 50 years.

    • That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.     
    • Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up. 
    • Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived? 
    • We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
