Children Taught All of Israel is Palestine
(Jerusalem Post) Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook - If you want to know what's really at the heart of the Palestinian conflict with Israel, go to Palestinian children. Children interviewed on PA TV last week state without reservation that Israel has no right to exist, and that the goal for which they're willing to sacrifice their lives is Israel's destruction. "Tel Aviv, Jaffa, Haifa, Acre, Ramle. All these cities belong to Palestine," one youth explained in a December 25 broadcast. Children are taught that all of Israel is part of Palestine. Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei is on record as rejecting the idea of Israel as a Jewish state. "President Bush said that Israel is a Jewish state, which is a cause for our concern. This should not have been said," he told Al-Nahar and Al-Hayat Al-Jadida on June 15, 2003.
