Re: Actual Palestinian School Textbook Quotes
 

Jeez, Chris, you read ALL the quotes...and the best you can say is that they are mere "complaints"????

Talk about spin...you are the top spinner I have ever encountered.

Re: BBC, TIME Magazine, ADL articles and quotes.
 

The defeat (which was what the book said, not destruction) of Israel and her allies is not the same as killing trespassing infidels. My main point was that I had been given only one example of an actual schoolbook teaching such a thing, not several.

Re: State sponsored suicide bombings by children
 

Are you saying all or arab schools, gov'ts, societies, etc... promote and financially support terrorism against Israel and the west? Or is it only some factions of the arab world that promote terrorism?

Re: State sponsored suicide bombings by children
 

My own belief is that it is not all but that it is quite widespread.

Very nice find, thanks, that's what we were looking for. Some examples of what is taught in the curricula of other Arab schools would be nice too. Looks like we've got it pretty well covered, notwithstanding the objections of the obstinate.

Well, I'll leave you to debate with these four horsemen of the apocalypse.

Thanks.

I've had my fill for a while too, I'm going out walking and to wonderful Mystic Market West.

"He [Arafat] has endorsed to two single women who blew themselves up." Really? What words of "endorsement" did Arafat actually use and why doesn't your source cite them?

Because the Arafat's "endorsement" is propaganda spin (it probably relates to an alleged Fatah demonstration by Palestinian girls). Here's how Arafat actually "endorses" suicide bombing:

"No degree of oppression and no level of desperation can ever justify the killing of innocent civilians. I condemn terrorism. I condemn the killing of innocent civilians, whether they are Israeli, American or Palestinian."

Lol. Nice description. I must go too though, I'm having dinner with my wife for a monthly anniversary. I wish I could say it was to my arabic class, but that's on Mondays. No attempt to encourage me to kill trespassing infidels but I'm sure they'll be along soon. Interesting by the way that the State Department report noted the IDF propensity for needlessly killing unarmed Palestinian civilian "tresspassers" (eg people trying to get to their work, breaking 24 hour curfews etc); one of those funny coincidences I suppose.

Hiho, Pestilence!
