(Times of Israel) Elhanan Miller - The Hamas government in Gaza accused UNRWA on Tuesday of unlawfully printing and disseminating school textbooks dealing with human rights in a way that offends Palestinian cultural sensitivities. Education Ministry spokesman Mu'tasim Al-Minawi said, "The vast majority of examples [in the books] refer to [Mahatma] Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Helen Suzman, the Soweto Uprising, the Magna Carta and Apartheid," and focused on "peaceful resistance as the only way of achieving freedom and independence." Al-Minawi charged that the entire curriculum is dedicated "to domesticate the psyche of the Palestinian pupil, fostering negative feelings toward armed resistance." The ministry called on UNRWA to stop teaching its current human rights curriculum and called on all teachers to refuse to teach the material, which "contaminates the minds of our dear students." 2014-02-14 00:00:00Full Article
