The Israeli-based Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education (IMPACT-se) has demonstrated that British taxpayers continue to pay for Palestinian educational materials despite the fact that pupils are routinely taught incitement, hatred of Israel and glorification of terrorism, according to a Jewish News report. For example, as recently as September last year, Palestinian school students studying under the auspices of the PA as well as in UNRWA (United Nations Relief Work Agency) schools in Judea, Samaria and Gaza were still learning maths by adding up the number of ‘martyrs’, including those who have led suicide bombings on buses and shopping centres.
In the last five years Britain has spent an estimated £105 million on Palestinian education professionals, including on the salaries of teachers who write the textbooks, but it does not monitor the content of those textbooks or the views of those writing them, despite the fact that the funds Britain transfers are officially contingent on “curriculum reform” which requires the PA to take action against “incitement to violence, including addressing allegations of incitement in the educational curriculum”.
THANKS SO MUCH,, IT MEANS THE WORLD TO US IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES
