Paid For by UNRWA

An American teacher published a clip in which he displayed textbooks of Palestinian children and their content. In the first grade, the children learn arithmetic by counting the shahidim suicide heroes throughout the Intifadah. In the third grade, they learn that Jerusalem is not sacred to the Jews. In the fifth grade they are taught that Jews are the enemies of Islam, while terrorists and Nazi devotees are to be venerated. In the sixth grade the students are taught that a Palestinian state is meant to stretch from the sea to the river.

In the science class of the seventh grade, where they learn about Newton and the laws of gravity, they are shown artillery aimed at Israeli soldiers. The language studies of the eighth grade is based on propaganda material dealing with suicide terrorists. In the ninth grade, the history lessons are based on the Chevron massacre which claimed 67 Jewish lives affirming that it was "a legitimate and natural act of defense fighters."

This poses somewhat of a problem in defining exactly what this denotes. Against whom? Not the Jewish State since this was only declared twenty years after the massacre.

These are only several excerpted examples of the curriculum in Palestinian schools. In their roster of national heroes there is not one scientist, doctor or hi-tech figure - only shahidim and murderers. The overall message is "death is better than life."

In the clip, a student is asked what he learned at school. His reply: 'We must dedicate our lives to die as shahidim, and with the help of Allah all the Jews will die.'

Who writes these textbooks? A look at the jacket will show the initials of UNRWA.

Yes, indeed, the selfsame United Nations organization which is supposed to deal with the Palestinian refugees. This very organization whose headquarters are in Gaza have become terrorist strongholds. The UNRWA storage rooms are filled with 'humanitarian aid supplies' streaming into Gaza very generously which rarely reach the citizen population for which they were intended. They go to Hamas.

The teacher who exposed the above, appeals to the viewers and says, "You are the ones who paid for all this."

America paid for this through its contributions to UNRWA.

Trump cut off all American support of UNRWA, but the Biden administration has restored it.
