British Teaching Tool for Kids Compares Suffragettes to Terrorists

If you could ask a terrorist six questions, what would they be? That's just one of the exercises suggested in Talking About Terrorism, a controversial teaching resource published in England just weeks before the Manchester Arena suicide bombing.

RELATED: Controversial UK Teaching Booklet Invites Children to Write Letter to a Terrorist

The booklet teaches that some people commit mass murder because they believe they're being treated “unfairly and not shown respect.” It offers historical examples of “terrorists” whose ideas were deemed extreme, but later turned out to be progressive --- you know, like women campaigning for voting rights at the turn of the last century.

The Suffragettes used violence and were called terrorists. Today many people think of them as brave women and admire their struggle for the right to vote.

"I would think in a place like Europe, Britain in particular after last week, maybe you may teach terrorism with things like, wow, people who kill other people are bad --- especially when you kill the most innocent among us," Doc Thompson said Tuesday, filling in for Glenn on The Glenn Beck Program.

Enjoy this complimentary clip or read the transcript for details.

DOC: Doc Thompson in for Glenn Beck today. Thank you so much for joining me. I'm joined also by Brad Staggs. You want to follow him on Twitter. It's The Blaze Brad and Brandon Morris if you want to follow him on Twitter and today we're using the #whatIlearnedtoday. But we're also going to be using the #KidsTerrorismBooks. You think of some old titles that maybe kids books that they've read over the years, and you have suggestions. Kids terrorism books because over in England, they have a new teaching resources for kids for how maybe he teach kids about terrorism.

BRANDON: Right.

DOC: I would think in a place like Europe, Britain in particular after last week.

BRANDON: Yeah.

DOC: Maybe you may teach terrorism things, like, wow people who kill other people are bad.

BRANDON: Are bad. Right.

DOC: Especially when you kill the most innocent among us, as well. Stuff like that. But that's not how it is, Brandon.

BRANDON: No, it's not. It was released just before the Manchester attack. But at the same time, this is a teaching tool for teachers who it basically encourages them to tell their students to write a letter to a terrorist, ask them six questions. If you could ask a terrorist six questions, what would then?

BRAD: Wow.

DOC: Okay. Wait a minute. Write a letter to a --

BRANDON: Write a letter to a terrorist.

DOC: Will these be delivered or just posted? Because if you say, hey, write a letter to a terrorist, then we'll track it.

BRANDON: This is about writing a letter to your congressman like we were encouraged back when -- no, write a letter terrorist.

DOC: Dear Mr. Terrorist, why are you blowing me up?

BRAD: Why do you want to kill me?

BRANDON: Yeah, so they're -- they're also saying -- this is contained in the pamphlet that they hand out. Use violence in recalled terrorists, the guide suggests. Many people think of them as brave women and admire their struggle for the right to vote.

DOC: What?

BRANDON: So they're basically saying one man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist idea.

DOC: And they were mentioning the suffrage.

BRANDON: Right. Comparing the people who fought to right for freedom is the same as going around killing children.

DOC: If I remember right, the Ariana Grande concert in 1911, I think that's where the women blew up the --

BRANDON: That's right.

DOC: And killed some 20 some people; right? Saying right to vote.

BRANDON: She was going crazy on that --

DOC: And Susan B Anthony, the suicide bomber. You remember her. She was with the vest and all of that.

BRANDON: She said votes for women and then killed them all.

DOC: What are you --

BRANDON: This is the stupidest -- don't get me wrong, England can be a very backward country when it comes to certain things like free speech and whatnot. This whole entire going forward the sympathy for terrorist thing, which is just infecting Europe to the point where.

DOC: I get throughout history people have practiced civil disobedience. I get that. Sometimes they cross the lines. Sometimes people do things that broke the law. Maybe even a little bit violent. I've never condoned those.

BRANDON: Right.

DOC: But even so, there is a huge leap from that from even clubbing somebody in the street to blowing up children at a concert. I mean, that's insane. That bleep is light years ahead.

BRANDON: And you know what? These are the -- this is the same radical Islamic extremist that believe raping a woman in the street because she's wearing -- this is a game to them. I think it's called Vada Rush or something like that. I mean, raping a woman in the street because she looks like a westerner. That's a game to them. They're going to compare that to the suffrage?

BRAD: Again, we're going to assign logic to the place where there is none.

DOC: The Suffragettes are fighting for women rights, female rights. You're justifying the way they treat women, which is cover up, you can't drive, you can't vote.

BRANDON: Exactly.

DOC: When you take progressive ideology, which is also this extremist ideology, and you lay out their values side by side, they do not run parallel, they conflict. They are in conflict because the ideas are failed. And that's a perfect example of it right there. So also, write a letter to a terrorist then. And then there are other ideas that you -- questions you should ask them.

BRANDON: No, they didn't say what questions you should ask them. Just if you could ask any terrorist six questions, then you should. But it's supposed to be structured in a question and answer format just talking about terrorism to kids. That's the whole point of it. And there -- like the whole point is to make them seem more human.

DOC: Okay. There's a failure if you think you can actually have a conversation with a terrorist like this because they're so far gone, it doesn't matter. Anybody that could do this, they're out of their minds. And then if there is a question, you could sit down and ask them, it's one question. And that's it. Why are you being such a dirt bag? That's it.

BRANDON: Okay. So one of the things, it teaches one reason why people commit mass murder. Which, by the way, they call a type of work. Is because they believe they are being treated unfairly and not shown respect.

DOC: And this is, again, a teaching tool.

BRANDON: This is a teaching tool for kids.

DOC: Okay. Well, this is the reason -- if it's a teaching tool in a new book, kids terrorism books. Get that. Use that #KidsTerroismBooks. You have to suggest a title via Twitter. Brandon, I get that there are many people who lead people to this. It's not just I want to be an extremist.

BRANDON: Right.

DOC: First of all, there are a lot of people that are just crazy.

BRANDON: Yes.

DOC: They're just nuts.

BRANDON: Absolutely.

DOC: There are some driven by extremist ideology. Some of that if you take it back a step comes from their poverty and lack of education. This is true. This is all over the Middle East. These people have been brain washed not for generations, for millennia. I'm serious. For thousands of years. Every generation going back as far as you can count has been brain washed a little bit more. And it's built on control.

BRANDON: Right.

DOC: It's poverty that forces some people into doing bad things.

BRANDON: Here in America, you can see the exact same thing. Where is crime highest? In low wage areas with zero education.

DOC: And without education. But we still don't justify what they do. And that's what's lost here on this. I can have a is discussion with the crazy people who wrote this book and suggest we talk to kids about this because those are valid points. We can sit down. I agree. And there's a way to handle some of that. Where are you in this teaching tool starting with that's wrong. It's bad. They must be punished. At times, they must be stopped with force. Because that's part of the equation as well.

BRANDON: Yes, exactly. I completely agree with you on that. After every terror attack, you have this entire slew of people going in and a saying, well, they have their reasons. Not all Muslims. And they are correct. But at some point in time we have to realize that this call for peace and prosperity and love, love -- no, it won't. Sometimes you have to stop things with a bullet.

BRAD: They want you to die, and there is no way you can negotiate with someone who's starting point is wanting to kill you.

BRANDON: Exactly. And they have been trained from birth to want to kill you. There is no convincing them otherwise.

BRAD: Nope.

BRANDON: This is their -- this is in their blood. The only thing they're going to understand is a bullet. That's it.

DOC: Unfortunately, the economic situations in these poverty-stricken countries and the lack of education leads to a lot of these people being rulable. That they are easily ruled by dictators. It sets it up. And then when you tie in the religious factor, their faith to it where you can claim as this leader that you are anointed by god to treat people poorly, you know what I mean? It's easy to control. Again, it's learned behavior. It's just what you know. There are cultures that eat disgusting foods. It's because you do at birth, and it's just what you know.

BRANDON: Right.

DOC: There are reasons we do things in America. Have football on Sundays or whatever, it's just ritual. We do these things. There must be both sides of the equation. I believe that we must meet some of this terrorism with force, with strength. But I believe we also have to understand and help as much as we can. Educate, deal with the economic situations.

BRANDON: A lot of these people do get into terrorism because they don't have any other option.

DOC: Right. But we need to make sure this of you that are screaming for this after Manchester and what is likely going to come to America, whatever six months, a year, we'll see another terrorist attack. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. That you also get there has to be a level of force. And the problem is a lot of people that are soft on terrorism do not understand that. They only want to go into the sympathy mode. You're missing out if you don't understand that I get that. Overnight last night, there were two separate car bombings in Baghdad. One outside of an ice cream parlor that killed 27 people. It was a car bomb that went off around people just getting ice cream and killed 27 people.

BRANDON: No headline. This is the if I say time I'm hearing.

DOC: And there was a second one in Baghdad same day in a busy day during rush hour killed 12 people. Both of them wounding dozens other. They killed 39 people in two separate attacks. We had 22 people killed in the Manchester, and we know about it. I agree with we identify Americans first. We identify the west secondly, and it just goes from there. Because we understand them. Our cultures are closer. We understand them more. But if you cannot look at the attacks that happened in Baghdad because those people are different and say that's a problem as well, these attacks happen all over the world. A lot of times in the Middle East, and we don't even pay attention to it. If you're upset that those children were killed, if you look at other terrorist attacks, and you really empathize or sympathize with the people that are killed and say this is horrible, people were killed, then you have to say it about those people as well, even if those people are Muslim. Even if you don't understand those people. The true fact is that ISIS and the extremist Muslims out there that are killing people are killing more Muslims than anybody else by far.

Exposing the dangerous roots of queer theory

In this explosive conversation, Glenn Beck and Liz Wheeler expose the disturbing roots of gender ideology and queer theory — and how these radical ideas are directly targeting children. From the shocking origins of queer theory, where pedophilia and child pornography were openly defended, to Planned Parenthood’s new role as one of the largest distributors of transgender hormone therapy, the truth is undeniable: this movement is not about freedom or equality, but about dismantling families, corrupting innocence, and profiting off of our children’s pain. What we are witnessing is nothing less than a satanic ideology dressed up as compassion — and it’s spreading like wildfire through schools, culture, and medicine. Parents, you need to hear this. The time to protect your children and fight back is NOW.

Here’s how INTENSE JFK’s Presidential Fitness Test was

President Trump recently signed an executive order to reinstate the Presidential Fitness Test and the media is in a frenzy. But Glenn and Stu look back at the history of these tests, including JFK’s version of the Test that seems IMPOSSIBLE for modern Americans. But Glenn has a secret reason for why he’s confident in his pull-up abilities…

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: What is the -- what is the new physical -- the president's physical fitness, you know, plan?

STU: Well, the thing that RFK Jr and Hegseth were rolling out the other day. I don't know if it was the full test or anything, but they were issuing a challenge to America, to be able to do 100 pushups and 50 pullups within five minutes.

GLENN: That's crazy.

STU: Thank you! That struck you as also crazy.

I don't think there's ever been a time in my life, that I could do that. Let alone now with shoulder problems. And much too much weight.

GLENN: All right. But that was before I needed this walker.

STU: I don't think there was a time in my 20s or my teens, that I could do that. But that -- in five minutes? Fifty pullups?
GLENN: Both of them in 5 minutes.
STU: Yeah, both of them. So it's not like 100 pushups in five minutes. It's both tasks within five minutes.

GLENN: No. No. That's not true.

STU: RFK Jr. is just doing it in jeans.

GLENN: Yeah, well, RFK, he's -- he's a weirdo. I mean, he is. Come on. When it comes to fitness, he's a weirdo.
STU: Yes.
GLENN: I mean, he's done this his whole life. He's like 800 years old. He can still do it.

STU: Yes. Depressive, I will say.

GLENN: I don't know. He's a sex machine.

STU: Oh. That's been a problem for him. Yes, that's been an issue in his life. Yes.

GLENN: Okay. All right. Go ahead.

STU: Separate from the president's physical fitness test.

GLENN: Right.

STU: But, I mean, they don't, they don't really think we're going to do that, right?
Like, I mean, how long would that take you to do?

STU: I think for me, it would take a good month. I think a month, I could probably get two pullups a day. That would get me around, a little over 50. So I could do that. Plus, the pushups. A solid month, I could get that done.

GLENN: You could do more than two a day. You could do more than two a day.

STU: You know, Glenn, I've got to say. I think -- I will throw a number out there. No science behind this, so just as a guestimate.

I would say 40 percent of the population can't do any pullups. Maybe 30 percent. Thirty percent of the population can do exactly zero pullups. Precisely zero, so an infinite amount of time would be a correct answer for a third of the population.

GLENN: I think you're -- I think you're being -- I think you're being a little too optimistic. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. I think it's closer to 40 or 50. Maybe 60 percent.

STU: Right! Pushups are one thing. I mean, I think almost anyone can do a pushup. One --

GLENN: You can do a pushup. Yes. Yes.

STU: Singular pushup. And if you can do one, you can wait long enough, to do a second one.
And at some point, the hundred gets done. That's not the case with pullups. Pullups, you can sit there and think about how much you want to do a pullup for a really long time. But that doesn't make a pullup happen. If you've got a certain amount of weight on you. You're not doing a pullup. It's not occurring.

GLENN: I have no idea, how many pullups I can do.

STU: I have an exact number of pullups, you can do.

GLENN: Do you? You think so?

STU: Yeah. Yeah. I have the exact number. I have to calculate -- AI has been running a report on me. It came up with zero.

GLENN: Right. Right. Really?
I can do. I mean, this is so pathetic. Listen to this. I bet I could do three. You know, you could do three.

STU: In a row? Proper form.

GLENN: What do you mean in a row?

STU: I mean, holding on to the bar, without letting go, you're doing three. There's no way. I don't think so.

GLENN: I think I could do. Well, with proper form, I don't know about that. I don't know about that.

STU: I'm not saying it has to look pretty. You have to get your chin up above the bar. It can't be one of those things, where you're a quarter of the way up there.

GLENN: So I can do one and rest for ten minutes. I could do another one.

I think I can do that.

STU: If you -- I'm not saying, you jump up, and you pull yourself up as you're pulling up. Full hang --

GLENN: See, you may not know this.

But you know what, I've done the DNA test. Have you ever done the DNA test that tells you all about your genes and everything else? Mine came back with something remarkable, and I have to share. You might feel bad, next.

STU: Coming up next, Glenn attempts live pullups on the air. Stay tuned!
(OUT AT 8:29 AM)

GLENN: You know no idea what who you're dealing with. No. You don't have any idea who you're dealing with here.

I got my DNA test back like 10 years ago. And we all -- we all took it, because we were looking for things. And so we all took it. My DNA test came back, and everybody in the family, their test made total sense. Like, oh, yeah. That makes...

Then we read mine. We have to find -- I have to find. See if Tania has it still. We should have had it framed. I swear to you, they -- they mixed me up with somebody else.

Somebody else is like, wait a minute. I'm this pathetic? Mine came out and said, you have the muscular structure of a -- of a -- something like a -- an elite athlete. You have the abilities and agility and everything else of an elite athlete. And I'm like, there's not a chance. I don't have any of that!

I don't even know if I have muscles. I have to check once in a while, and go, do I have muscles still?

Doctor is like, I don't know. Can I? Ask just press against my hand on the leg. I don't know.

You know, I don't know how to do that exactly. So --

STU: You sure it said elite athlete and not elephant? I mean, if they misspelled it.

GLENN: It was.

I was having eye problems at the time.

STU: No!

GLENN: I mean, we read it. And I was like Tania, I believe that for Tania.

Maybe they switched me and Tania. Because Tania is really strong. She'll kick your butt.

She works out every day. All of that. Me? Never. Never.

And it kind of makes me wonder, when I get to the other side, and the Lord went, okay.

So what did you do with your life again?

Because I gave this incredible body, and you wasted it the whole time.

And I'm like, you should have been more clear, okay?

You should have been more clear. I -- maybe I could have played basketball. But I tried once. And it was embarrassing. It was embarrassing. It was like sixth grade. And I'll never live -- I don't even want to think about my time on a basketball court. Okay? So don't -- don't start with me. You should have made it a little clearer. When I first started to do stuff. And I think that's fair. I think that's a fair argument. In my defense. In my defense, Your Honor, God, you should have made it a little more clear.

STU: Yeah. I mean, if they really wanted us to do this, then the 11th Commandment is 50 pushups, and -- or, 50 pullups and 100 pushups, right?

Like, put it in a commandment if you really want us to do it. You have to be more specific, we're Americans.

GLENN: Okay. So let me give you the top of the list for the JFK Presidential Fitness Test. Okay? This is what you had to do in high school. In high school.

Thirty-four pullups. Bar dips: Fifty-two. What's -- because I believe I did that. A long time. And I don't recommend it.

STU: It's not a barhop.

GLENN: Oh, it's -- oh, bar dips. Okay. Okay. All right.

Bar dips: 52. Handstand pushups: Fifty. What are handstands?

STU: Oh, my God. Handstands.

GLENN: I can't even stand on my hands. Is that I'm doing a handstand and a push up? Because that's not happening. You're not human.

STU: Yeah. You're balancing yourself on your hands. Your feet are above your hands on the wall. Like a wall. And you're doing --

GLENN: Oh, so you're balancing yourself. That makes it a little easier. Still impossible.

But a little easier.

GLENN: Impossible. You could do precisely zero of those.

Aright. So you had to do 50 handstand pushups.

Or one arm -- 30 -- no, sir.

Twenty-six one-arm burpees in 30 seconds. Is that a one-armed push up?

STU: No. Well, you're bracing your yourself like you're about to begin a pushup in a burpee with only one arm, which that's not that difficult.

But then you're doing. Then you're like, you move your feet towards your hands. And then you jump up in the air basically. And then you do it repeatedly.

GLENN: No, no, no. That's ridiculous. No.

STU: There's a law of gravity. You're not supposed to violate it. If it was a recommendation of gravity, then maybe jumping would be appropriate. But it's not. Follow the law.

GLENN: In 48 seconds, you had to do a 3300-yard shuttle. Now, I've been to the airport. I think I've done a 3300-yard shuttle, but it depends on who is driving. You know.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Rope climb. Try this. Rope climb. Twenty feet, hands only! Sit start.

STU: That's what I remember from the president's physical fitness test. And I remember looking at that rope, like, no chance I could get up that thing.

GLENN: I remember looking up at that thing. Humiliation. Humiliation is coming my way. I'll never kiss a girl, because that ain't happening. I'll get maybe 10 feet up. Maybe. Maybe.

STU: And you were right for 24 years from that time, approximately.

GLENN: Agility run, 17 seconds. Extension pressups, what? What?

I'm sorry. Why am I so tired reading this?

Extension pressups. What's an extension pressup, 8-inch? You had to do 100 of them.

STU: Let's see. Exercise. An exercise for low-back pain involving lying on your stomach and pressing your upper body up with your arms while keeping your hips relaxed and down on the mat.

GLENN: Oh, I could do that know. 8 inches.

STU: The last part of it, relaxing down on the mat.
GLENN: That's what my doctor says I should be doing. What?

STU: I can do relaxed and down on the mat. That part of it --

GLENN: Yeah. I could do that -- I'm the only guy. I took yoga for a while, like three weeks. My wife is like, yoga. You could do yoga. Let's just do yoga together.

I did. And the yoga instructor said to me. Because we were doing a plank.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: And she came and all I remember her waking me up. And saying, I think you're the only person I've ever -- ever taught that fell asleep in yoga. And I'm like, it's just so relaxing. Just let me sleep. Let me sleep.

STU: That's interesting, that you did yoga. Is there any footage of that? Any video that we could post? That would be good for --

GLENN: No. There's not. You had to do pegboard. Five trips of pegboard. And I think that's when you have the two pegs.

STU: Yes, it was a board.

GLENN: You have to take it out, and put it up, right?

STU: This is American Ninja Warrior. No way.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

STU: This is amazing.

GLENN: Try this one: You had to do a 45-second handstand. I've never been able to do a handstand. Never!

STU: Never.

GLENN: And I'm an elite athlete. I'm an elite athlete. Try this one: A man carry, 5 miles.

STU: What? What do you mean a --

GLENN: Five-mile man carry.

STU: Is a man carry as obvious as it --

GLENN: I think it is.

STU: You're carrying --

GLENN: If I'm going to carry that man, you have to carry me that man for five miles.

I'm not sure, I can't carry any man for any miles. I mean, if I am -- if I am a firefighter, count on burning in the house. You're going to burn in the house. Because I can't carry you out. I can get in there and go, yeah, I will have to leave you.
I will have to leave you here. I can't help you, sorry.

It's also getting really hot in here. I have to go. You had to do a five-mile jog. An obstacle course.

You had to swim prone for a mile. You had to swim underwater for 50 yards, any strokes, two minutes. Deep waterfront, hang float, with arms. What? What is a deep water hang float with arms. Wait. Wait.

It's a deep waterfront hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes.

What kind of al-Qaeda PE class was this?

STU: Who has access to -- who has access -- like, you're in the middle of the country, you may not have a deep water body nearby. This is -- are you sure this is an actual test?

GLENN: This is the actual test. This is the actual -- what is a deep water front hang float with arms and ankles tied for six minutes? Can you look that up?

STU: A deep water hang float is an aquatic hang float done in the deep end of a pool with the aid of flotation device, such as a noodle or belt.

In this position, the flotation twice supports your upper body, while your legs and torso hang freely beneath you.

That can't be what it is.

GLENN: You can do that.

Deep-end of the pool.

STU: Can you bring a margarita?

GLENN: Man, this test is no big deal.

What! No way. No way!

Here's the last thing on the test.

A vertical tread in an 8-foot circle for two hours!

No way.

STU: Vertical tread in an 8-foot circle?

GLENN: So you're in the water and you're treading water in a circle for two hours. Two!

STU: This is not -- what?

This is not the test.

GLENN: It is. Now, I told you, this is the top of the test.

This is the top of the test.

So this is for the ones who could do all the other tests.

This was the top of the test. The bottom of the test is not that much better. Here's the entry, okay? Let's see. Pullups, 2/6/10. I don't know what that means. Pushups, 16, 24, 32. Bar dips, four, eight, and 12. Situps, 30, 45, and 60. Broad jump, 6-foot, 6, 6, 6. And 6, 9.

To jump 6 feet? I don't even know if --

STU: That one is possible, yes. Glenn, I know it sounds incredible. But, yes. That one is possible.

GLENN: Sounds incredible. You know, I think we should have the average person Olympics. I really do. I really do.

STU: Oh, I would watch that.


GLENN: I would watch that every time.

You see them coming. And you're like, hmm. That one -- three feet. I'm giving him 3 feet. 200-yard shuttle. Agility run. Rope climb, 18 feet, hands only. 880 yards in three minutes. A mile in seven minutes. Pegboard, six holes. A 50-yard swim. Forty -- 40, 50-yard swim in 36 seconds. Man carry, 880 yards. No, thank you! No, thank you!

Look at -- look at what we've gone down. That's the bottom of it. And I don't think most Americans could do that.

I couldn't. Well, I could. Because I'm an elite -- I have the body of an elite athlete.

STU: No. You could not. Now, of course -- let's just say, this is supposed to be for a high school kid. Right?

So this is the prime of your athletic life. Could you do some of these things? Probably.
GLENN: Go into high school.
Go into any high school, and ask them to do this. There's no way. And all of the kids would be.

STU: Well, that's kind of what the reaction would be.

GLENN: Don't get me wrong. I would have been there too. And my parents would have said, suck it up. Just do it.

So nothing has really changed.

STU: That's been the reaction to this proposal too, of bringing this back. Right? The media is covering this. Like, it's going to embarrass children.

You know, I mean, I do remember it being like, I can't do that. I'm not going to the top of that rope. That's not happening.

That's sort of life. Right? Sometimes you can do things. Sometimes you can't do other things.

GLENN: That's why you have to learn how to injure yourself.

You know, how many stairs can I throw myself down, to not do serious damage, but enough to get me out of PE.

STU: Yeah, you have to fake an why are. You have to learn from LeBron James. Act like you got hit in the eye. And fall down like you were just stabbed over and over again, like you were in an athletic competition.

GLENN: There's no way. There's no way.

Claire's warning: The dark side of gender care EXPOSED

Claire Abernathy was just 14-years-old when doctors told her parents she’d take her own life without hormones and surgery. They promised “gender care” would save her life. Instead, it left Claire with irreversible scars, broken trust, and a lifetime of regret. Her mom was told she was required to comply. No one ever addressed the bullying, or trauma Claire endured before being rushed into medical transition. Now, years later, both Claire and her mother are speaking out and exposing how families are misled, how doctors hide risks, and how children are left to pay the price. With federal investigations now underway, their story is a warning every parent needs to hear.
