Palestinian School Magazine Calls for "Armed Struggle" Against "Israeli Monster"
(Jerusalem Post) Lahav Harkov - Demonization of Israel and incitement to violence are rampant in Waed, a magazine published by Fatah's youth movement and distributed in Palestinian Authority schools, a new study by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) found. The magazine glorifies terrorists who murdered Israelis as heroes and anticipates a Palestinian state that will replace all of Israel, including the removal of Israelis from the land. Waed claims "the liberation of Palestine will only be achieved through armed struggle." The magazine falsifies history, tying today's Palestinians to a "Canaanite Palestinian Arab" people that settled the land 5,000 years ago, when, in fact, Arab migration to the area began in the seventh century. A coin with ancient Hebrew script is called ancient Palestinian currency. "The education transmitted to children via Waed will be the driving force for Palestinian hate and terror for another generation," PMW concludes.
