Thomas, things are much better when you say what you mean, and mean what you say...Don't like Jews? That is o'key..But why go around the obvious..Palestinian Society is totally pathetic example of perpetual lie, half-truths and systematic abuse by PLO leadership....The rize of Hamas has less to do with Israel than with Arafat and his crownies..The war is not avoidable..

Tom. You said..." How about Israel teaching Arab kids to hate Jews? Israel barred Palestinians from using new books that were free of "anti-Semitic" content, insisting that the books with "anti-Semitic" content be used:"....

Read through the article at the web site you posted >>>
fmep.org.

And one paragraph indicated why Israel was against the use of the new text books.
....."* Oddly, Israel allowed the offensive Jordanian books to be used in the East Jerusalem schools but barred the innocuous PA-authored books, probably fearful that use of the PA books would be an implicit recognition of sovereignty."...

So it looks like You were wrong in saying that Israel is teaching arab kids to hate jews.

I really don't know anything about arab/palestinian schools
but I wonder if teaching of the quran is part of the curriculum and if so teaching arab kids to hate all who are not muslim would be well covered there.
