Canadian "Students Against Israeli Apartheid" Hooks Kids on Hatred
[National Post-Canada] Barbara Kay - The idea behind Students Against Israeli Apartheid (SAIA) is to hook kids on hatred of the Jewish state while they are still wet behind the ears in their knowledge of Middle Eastern history, and vulnerable to the sophisticated play on emotions and pity these fulltime activists with no respect for truth bring to bear. At last year's Israeli Apartheid Week on the University of Toronto campus, SAIA set up a full-day session of anti-Zionist brainwashing for high school students. Nobody but high school students were allowed into the building: no teachers, no parents, no older siblings. I can't think of anything creepier than a closed-door session to which youngsters only are invited to listen to adult fanatics spewing hatred.
