(Israel Hayom) Yaakov Ahimeir - Dr. Arnon Gross, formerly a senior Arabic language broadcaster at Voice of Israel Radio, read 200 Arabic textbooks to understand what Palestinian students are taught. He found that the school system drills into the heads of students that there is no entity called "Israel." And if it does exist, it should be called "the Zionist entity" that must be destroyed. He says the books clearly "demonize the Jews and Israel, and encourage the violent struggle to liberate Palestine from the [Jordan] river to the [Mediterranean] sea." The area in question here is not just the West Bank but the whole Land of Israel. Gross stresses that from year to year, Palestinian textbooks have not become more moderate - quite the opposite, in fact. The writer is editor and presenter at Israel's Channel 1 television.
