NJ district suspends teacher that told Muslim student that he doesn't 'negotiate with terrorists'

[left-of-center2012]

A New Jersey school district has suspended a teacher after a Muslim student claims he was called a "terrorist" by a teacher in front of his class. In a statement, the Ridgefield School District said it had suspended the staff member involved in the incident, adding that it has "absolutely no tolerance for any sort discrimination (sic) against any student or staff member."

According to WABC-TV in New York City, who first reported the story,
17-year-old Mohammed Zubi says he was in math class at Memorial High School in Ridgefield when he asked his teacher a question.
(The teacher) responded saying, 'We don't negotiate with terrorists,'" Mohammed told WABC.
NorthJersey.com reports that
the teacher later approached Mohammed and told him that
he "didn't mean it like that."

Mohammed and his family later brought their concerns to the New Jersey chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. "We are very concerned about these allegations and urge the school district to take appropriate corrective measures following a swift and transparent investigation," CAIR-NJ Executive Director Selaedin Maksut said in a statement. "This type of insensitive language by an authority figure is unacceptable because it perpetuates stereotypes of Arabs and Muslims."

In its statement, the Ridgefield School District added that it "fully intends to pursue any and all legal remedies against the staff member."

1. Your title is inconsistent with the first paragraph

The title says the teacher "told Muslim student that he doesn't 'negotiate with terrorists'", with no hint that it is an allegation from the student (which may or may not be true).
