But note the news was fake anyway, hence they probably have nothing against maths and infinity. It was fake just like the fatwa promoting excision was. I wonder who is trying to spread that anti-ISIS propaganda: they could do a batter job by not spreading fake news, we have enough with real ones.

From TFA:

Editor's note: An earlier version of this story contained reporting about ISIS and education. CNN has concerns about the interpretation of the information provided and we will update the story when we can verify what is happening.
