“Unchecked Abuse of Palestinian Children”
by Zionistupdate
November 7th, 2009

The indoctrination of Palestinian Arab children to hate and seek to destroy the Jews living in this area is, again, nothing new. It is an ongoing violation of Israel’s agreements with the Palestinians that the rest of the world is content to ignore.

Nevertheless, every time I am presented with the latest example of this wicked treatment of impressionable young minds, my anger rises afresh.

What got my blood boiling this time was Sunday’s report by Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) concerning the newest episode of the Hamas children’s program Tomorrow’s Pioneers, which was previously hosted by Farfur the Mouse, who earlier this month was shown being beaten to death by an Israeli security agent.

In the episode broadcast over the weekend on Hamas’ Al Aqsa TV, Farfur’s replacement, Nahool the Bee, tells his young audience that together they will “liberate the sad Al-Aqsa [the mosque that occupies Jerusalem’s Temple Mount] that is waiting for us. Yes, we will liberate Al-Aqsa from the filth of the criminal Jews, who killed my grandfather, and killed Farfur.”

Later in the show, a young caller says she wants to be a journalist when she grows up. Nahool encourages her to “photograph the Jews when they are killing Farfur and the little children.”

In a previous episode immediately following Farfur’s “martyrdom,” the show’s other host, a young girl named Saraa, confirms for a three-year-old caller that the “Jews” were in fact behind Farfur’s murder, and that they are “criminals and enemies” who must be expelled from the land.

PMW noted that the number of young Palestinians calling in to the show to assail the Jews is evidence that the indoctrination efforts are having the desired effect.

What I want to point out is the constant use of the word “Jews” instead of “Israelis.” Hamas, Hizballah, Iran, Syria, etc all constantly state that they have no problem with the Jews per se, but rather with the “Zionists” and the “Zionist entity.”

These children’s programs paint a different picture, though. They are teaching children to hate the Jews as a people, to view all Jews as blood-thirsty murderers and thieves. It is the same indoctrination that has been going on for centuries, and which paved the way for the Nazi Holocaust.

In addition to reiterating the utter dismay that I feel as a father when I see children the same age as my young son being taught such things, I would also like to again point out the thorough hypocrisy of the international community. If Israel was allowing any of its citizens to broadcast such venomous hatred against the Palestinians or Arabs in general, the international community would be in an uproar.

So, why is no one stopping this from happening in the Palestinian-controlled areas? The world pretends to care so much about solving the Israeli-Arab conflict, yet is not lifting a finger to prevent the Palestinians from training millions of children to perpetuate it indefinitely. Truly, we live in a sick and twisted world.
