More peace-loving peace and love from the peaceful, loving, tolerant Palestinians. "Palestinian children learn: English is the language of the enemy," by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik for Palestinian Media Watch, October 18:
Hamas children's program, "Tomorrow's Pioneers", last week included a part in which children learned that it is important to know English because it is "the language of their enemy."Following is the transcript:
Child host: "What do you want to be in the future, Allah willing?"
Child caller: "A teacher of the English language."
Host: "Why do you want to be specifically an English teacher?"
Child: "To teach children the language of their enemy." [Child host smiles.]
Host: "Very nice. A great field. It is not enough for us to know our own language... We also want to study the language of our enemies, to know how to have contacts with them, and so that we can convey the message of Palestinian children..."
Nassur: "Like me! Just like I know the Zionist enemy's language."
Host: "Really?"
Nassur: "Hebrew."
Host: "Okay, speak [in Hebrew]."
Nassur: "I can't." [laughing].

Glad to know what Hamas thinks of all of us who speak English.
If Muslims want to learn to speak the language of the enemy, may I suggest Aramaic?
Verily, the enemy of hatred is love, ignorance is knowledge, and evil is righteousness.

Free English lesson: An oxymoron is not a smart imbecile.
A few questions for "open-minded" Muslims to consider here.
Put me down as a native speaker of English and an inveterate enemy of all that Islam intends for the West. I find it very satisfying that English could well be the language that gives the Arabic speaking world the greatest fits it's ever encountered. Right now I'm feeling awfully proud.
Perhaps some one should send this video off to the President
and the Secretary of State.A copy should also be sent to
Fox. They seem to be shying away from things like this. How
many shares of Fox do the Saudis own?
ENEMY ...
booga booga booga ...
Who needs to teach them letters and numbers when you can teach them to demonize the neighbors?
I think it was Golda Meir who said that peace will come when the arabs love their children more than they hate the Jews.
Palestinian Children's Television - another oxymoron from the desert.
