As I constantly exhort Good Oil readers, homeschool your kids. Not only will they be smarter (homeschooled children often score 15 to 25 percentile points above public school students on standardized tests), but they’ll know whether they’re boys or girls. The sad fact is that, as things stand, a public education (and often an expensive private education, even at supposedly ‘Christian’ schools) is a one-way ticket to ever-declining academic results and a couple of decades of relentless indoctrination.
I’ve written often that the Long March through the Institutions conquered the schools first and almost completely, but that’s not the only oleaginous ideology coming for your kids. If the communists and drag queens don’t get your kids, the jihadis will.
A new report documents how Qatar has spent over $65 million quietly reshaping what American children learn, from kindergartens to universities, building an ideological pipeline so carefully constructed that most people never noticed it was there.
This is the warfare no one is talking about. And it has been running for 15 years.
And it’s being waged by an organisation so insidious it’s banned in many Muslim countries.
In 1991, the Muslim Brotherhood wrote a confidential internal memo outlining a long-term strategy for the “Islamization” of Western societies. Not through violence, but through what they called “soft jihad”: systematic infiltration of schools, media, and civil society, with radical ideology wrapped in the language of human rights, diversity, and culture, so that any criticism could be instantly dismissed as racism or Islamophobia.
They called it, in their own words, civilizational jihad. Not my words, Theirs.
Qatar is the financial backbone of this soft jihad. The Brotherhood recognised that, in the modern West, the sword is unnecessary and counterproductive. The real battlefield is cultural. The goal is straightforward: to gradually replace liberal democratic values with Islamic law – sharia, with all that that entails.
With an investment of just $65 million, the Muslim Brotherhood has bought the American public school system cheap.
First graders receiving a 43-page textbook dedicated entirely to Qatar, ending with a test designed to build admiration for the country. A Brooklyn elementary school displaying a map of the Middle East where Israel doesn’t exist, replaced with the word “Palestine.” Qatar Foundation International proudly posted the photo on their own X account. Teachers flown to Doha, trained on specific ideological frameworks, and sent home to train their colleagues, a deliberate scaling model designed to multiply reach without multiplying cost. University centers infiltrated to distribute curated materials to future educators, journalists, and policymakers, funded in part by American taxpayer money through federal grants.
This is not a series of isolated programmes. It is a pipeline designed to shape moral intuitions at the earliest possible age.
And here is the part that most people miss: this campaign is not for the benefit of Muslim communities. They’re already in the tent and wholly brainwashed. Instead, it’s aimed at the kufar. The target is the infidel majority, whose sympathies, votes and silence are what the movement needs to advance.
By the time your daughter is 12, she may already believe that the women fighting for rights in Iran are the aggressors. That the gay teenager fleeing Gaza deserves to stay there. That Western democracy is the world’s villain. Not because she was told. Because the story was built into her education, piece by piece, before she had the tools to question it.
And the story she will learn has no nuance. No complexity. No “on the other hand.” There is one oppressor and one victim, and those roles never switch, never evolve, and are never questioned. The moral universe she inherits will be pre-assembled, hermetically sealed, and resistant to evidence. That is not education. That is indoctrination with better branding.
The Muslim Brotherhood has learned a crucial lesson from authoritarian regimes of the past. The Soviets and the fascists did not announce their propaganda openly: they called it ‘educating the young’. The jihadis have studied that playbook and added a crucial upgrade: wrapping it in the language of progressive values. Diversity. Justice. Liberation. The packaging is designed for people who consider themselves open-minded, but whose brains fell out long ago.
Every liberal democracy that values women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, freedom of religion, and freedom of speech has a stake in recognizing this threat clearly, and early, before the foundation has already been laid.
Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood are counting on the fact that we won’t look too closely until it’s too late. The question is whether we’re ready to start taking notice.
And whether we’re still going to keep sending our kids into the school-to-jihad pipeline.
