(JNS.org) Rafael Medoff - "There's no doubt the lack of sympathy for Israel on college campuses today is at least partly the result of several generations of teenagers being educated with textbooks that are slanted against Israel," said Dr. Sandra Alfonsi, founder of Hadassah's "Curriculum Watch" division. After parents in Anchorage, Alaska, complained to their local board of education in 2004 about the 540-page Arab World Studies Notebook, the American Jewish Committee (AJC) prepared a 30-page analysis of the book. The AJC found it to be riddled with "overt bias and unabashed propagandizing," such as depicting Israel as the aggressor in every Arab-Israeli war and praising Muslim conquerors throughout the ages for their "gentle treatment of civilian populations." The Anchorage Board of Education removed the Notebook from the local high school curriculum. 2017-07-13 00:00:00Full Article
