"Some of my friends are Jewish" - OISE's inane approach to Muslim anti-Semitism in Canadian schools

From The Ontario Institute in Studies in Education:
...Such engagement must be done politely, sensitively: “You do not have to bluntly tell the student he or she is wrong or ignorant. You show an alternative viewpoint, ask about what other views are, make them think about it, respond to negative remarks by bringing in simple examples.” For example, when a student made an inappropriate remark about Jews, Monica responded, “You know the head of school is Jewish. Now would you say things like that of him?” And, “Some of my friends are Jewish.”...
It's no surprise that their teaching approach to dealing with anti-Semitism sounds asinine given that they have teachers LIKE THIS at OISE.
