"Professor Brown acknowledges the accuracy of the quotations in CMIP's 1998 and 2000 reports, and also confirms that the new PNA textbooks are not peace-oriented. However, he does not accept CMIP's methodology or interpretation of the books. " "Although Professor Brown alluded to the use of Egyptian and Jordanian textbooks by the PNA during the period that Israel was responsible for education in areas now under PNA rule, he neglected to mention that these were reprinted after the material offensive to Jews and Israel had been removed. The PNA chose to adopt the older, un-censored, versions containing the offensive material – and it was this fact that CMIP was highlighting in its 1998 report, while querying the PNA decision, and not, as suggested by Professor Brown, holding the PNA responsible for the content of books not produced by themselves. Incidentally, these original versions are still in use today for those grades for which new Palestinian textbooks have not yet been introduced. " edume.org
