This is what’s being taught at Palestinian schools run by the UNRWA:
Children were given mathematics problems using martyrs from the First Intifada to formulate equations, told to “defend the motherland with blood,” and told the lie that Israel dumps radioactive and toxic waste on purpose in the West Bank in order to harm Palestinians.
Despite resounding bad publicity, UNRWA hasn’t let up. It continues to glorify jihad terror and antisemitism.
Murder, martyrdom and pure anti-Semitic hate are deeply embedded in the history and culture of the Palestinians. By all indications, this hatred will continue to be supported by the UN, while Israel will continue to be demonized.
“U.N. Palestinian Schools Continue to Teach Anti-Israel Hate,” Breitbart, February 17, 2021:
Palestinian schools run by the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees — to which the Biden administration has promised to restore funding — still teach inciteful content against Israel. Lessons include condemning its recent peace agreements with Arab countries, erasing Israel from all maps and glorifying terrorism, a new report by an Israeli watchdog showed.
In January, the Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education (IMPACT-se), an Israeli watchdog that analyzes Palestinian textbooks, found that the new textbooks produced by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) were “rife with problematic content that contradicts stated UN values.”
Children were given mathematics problems using martyrs from the First Intifada to formulate equations, told to “defend the motherland with blood,” and told the lie that Israel dumps radioactive and toxic waste on purpose in the West Bank in order to harm Palestinians.
UNRWA, which serves millions of Palestinian refugees in the West Bank, Gaza, Syria, Lebanon and elsewhere in the Middle East, promised that the issue had been resolved and that the material in question had not been in use since November.
However, on Wednesday, the watchdog released a new report showing that school material distributed after November continued to glorify violence.
IMPACT-se said:
A spelling exercise created by UNRWA condemns peace and normalization agreements between Israel and Arab states. Another exercise describes “pieces of corpses” being dispersed throughout city streets to teach grade 9 spelling. Israel, a UN member state, is solely referred to as “the Enemy” or “the Occupation” and is erased from maps of the region.
Senior government officials from donor countries accepted UNRWA’s assertion the material was no longer being used without conducting independent inquiries into the matter.
Germany, UNRWA’s largest donor, said it “welcomes the fact that UNRWA has independently uncovered the problem and reacted promptly.”
UK Minister for the Middle East and North Africa, James Cleverly, stated, “UNRWA has reported that these materials are no longer circulated and are not used in current lessons. The issue was rectified by November 2020.”
IMPACT-se CEO, Marcus Sheff, called on donor countries to ask “much more pointed questions of UNRWA if they want to stop financing this ongoing hate-teaching.”
“UNRWA’s promises about removing the[hateful] content have been repeated in good faith by governments around the world,” he said.
“Sadly, as this research shows, this is simply not the case,” he added.
The Biden administration last month said it would reinstate aid to UNRWA, which the Trump administration cut….

it is monstrous that the appalling lies told by the descendants of the arab employees of 19th-century zionist jews – so-called “palestinians” – are being consciously ignored by leftist propaganda organizations pretending to report news. they are as poisonously antisemitic as the pious ummah for whom they provide political cover.
it is tempting to be as hateful as the left, and attack them the way they attack both jews and conservatives, but instead, when talking with leftists, ask questions. ask for evidence of specific instances of “colonialism,” “hate” crimes, and “war crimes.” unless U have the evidence immediately available, don’t confront them about their lies; instead, do some research on the lies they told U, then go back and ask them to explain your evidence. the trick is to appear inquisitive and subordinate; they think of U (a conservative) as a stupid stinking fool, but it boosts their ego to think that U want to learn from them. Keep them in that frame of mind, and U have a chance of putting them in the position of confronting their own ignorance. rather than rushing into confrontation, let the truth do your arguing. if U appear as a friend to the leftist, he may in the end accept U as a friend, and eventually become an ally of the truth. it is the left that believes in the infantile behavior of thugs. free men use the truth as a weapon to recruit lying thugs into becoming truthful conservative.

A good strategy when dealing with the Left.
It’s a strategy that I oftentimes use – with varying degrees of success…

UNRWA schools continue to glorify jihad terror and anti-Israel hate
……………
Horrifying–but no one should be surprised by this.

UNRWA “schools” are nazi muslimo school and they will never change. They should be forbidden and if they continue with the nazi propaganda they must be executed like the nazis in Nurenberg trials

I direct my question to Marcus Scheff, IMPACT-se , if he isn’t already doing so in blunt but accurate terms. He should publicly query European donors of UNWRA if their past Anti-Semitism and current problems with it is an obstacle to their mission? Monitoring compliance of UNWRA is a simple matter. Send unannounced 2-2-Person teams to a random, UNWRA run school and audit the texts in use in the classroom and on site, within the school. How tough is this mission? Look up their purchase orders from publishing houses to see what they are ordering and go there to collect samples in order to examine them. This is basic follow through on the donor nations if they are serious about monitoring UNWRA and their educational material.
As far as President Biden is concerned, if he offered to once again fund UNWRA without a Quid Pro Quo, i.e. no storage and use of military ordnance at UNWRA Schools, an Open Door to inspect anytime school materials at UNWRA run schools K-12, examine curricula, open accounting ledgers for inspection by donor nations without preconditions, and many more then Mr. Biden is just going back to the failed policies of yesteryear and will yield the same results, another generation encultured with the venom of hate, intolerance and unamenable to making Peace.

But of course, to Biden and his ilk, these are not *failed policies*. They inculcate hatred against the Isralies and promote volence, hatred and war. For leftists, this is A Result!
