This ought to go over well.
Biden's State Department Launches Multimillion Dollar Push To Fight Climate Change, Teach Gender Studies in Iraq The Biden administration is prepared to shell out up to $12 million to teach Iraqis how to fight climate change and appreciate "gender diversity," an effort it says will help strengthen democracy in the Middle Eastern nation.
President Joe Biden's State Department on May 15 posted a grant solicitation offering three universities in Iraq up to $4 million each to develop programs to help fight climate change and advance gender equity. Recipients must develop "fields of study, course offerings, and/or majors" centered on "gender issues" and "the adaptation to and mitigation of the impacts of climate change," the grant offering shows. Additionally, the State Department wants Iraqi universities to develop recruitment programs for students who will work toward advancing "greenhouse gas reduction" and "other areas of study related to climate change."
Programs approved for funding must also have "progressive curricula" and "strengthen the diversity of the student body of American-style Iraqi institutions of higher education."
Iraq isn't the only majority-Muslim state where the United States has attempted to use taxpayer dollars to impose progressive ideas. A 2021 government report found that the United States spent over $787.4 billion on advancing gender equality in Afghanistan, with limited success. Trying to integrate women into anti-Taliban militias, a U.S. Agency for International Development official reported, "caused revolts" among fighters, and despite American efforts, female political participation declined between 2004 and 2019.
When asked how the grant advances America's interests in the region, the State Department told the Washington Free Beacon that "We know that more inclusive governments are better equipped to address global challenges."
"Diversity, equity, and inclusion," the department's statement continued, "are not only a matter of human rights and fairness, but when present together promote stability, prosperity, and security."............
