King Fahad Academy cleared over textbooks
A school accused of using textbooks that called Jews "apes" and Christians "pigs" has been cleared of racism by Government Inspectors. The Saudi-funded King Fahad Academy, in Bromyard Avenue East, Acton, provides a "satisfactory education" according to Ofsted inspectors, who made a surprise visit to the school last Thursday. Education ministers had ordered an inquiry into the independent school after allegations of "institutionalised racism" surfaced two weeks ago. But the unannounced visit by inspectors found the school met "all the regulations concerning pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural education".

Can we now expect apologies from the Evening Standard, Melanie Phillips, Totally Jewish, Jihad Watch et al? Take a wild guess.
