Here is an adorable girl in Gaza who is attending a school that teaches hate.
She doesn't hate Jews now. But in a few years she will be indoctrinated to want to give birth to martyrs.
This tweet seems to have hit a nerve among the haters.
Good.
They know it is true and therefore are responding with "whataboutery" - or justification for hate..
Her school had an assembly on Saturday claiming that the 1969 fire at Al Aqsa (by a deranged Australian Christian) was the first step by Jews to destroy the mosque. Pure incitement to hate Jews. facebook.com/permalink.php?โฆ
To those who still don't believe me, here's a story from a Gazan about what he was taught in schools about Jews.
A quick lesson on psychology, anti-Zionism and antisemitism.
It has been known for quite a long time that people tend to make decisions based on emotion and only afterwards back up their decisions with what superficially passes for logic.
1/
Studies have consistently shown that people will trust facts that confirm their biases and reject those that prove them wrong.
2/
Antisemitism has been around forever, but since the Holocaust it has been socially unacceptable to be publicly antisemitic. But the Holocaust didn't change people's natures; it just made it shameful to be on the same side as Hitler.

@KenRoth@hrw Speaking of, international legal scholars recognize that settlers have human rights, too - IN N. CYPRUS. For some reason @KenRoth doesn't believe that Jews have human rights. Quote from the Encyclopedia of Human Rights Vol 1. elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-onโฆ
@KenRoth@hrw Int'l law is against "transfer" of citizens to occupied territory. Transfer in every other context in Geneva means forcible transfer, based on a Nazi practice. Jews who move to Judea/Samaria do it voluntarily.
Forcible transfer of Jews OUT of their homes in J&S may be illegal!
"Ethnic Food Festival, what kind of food do you offer?"
>"Chinese."
"Great! Fill in this short form.
"And what kind of food do you offer?"
>"Israeli."
(furrows brow) "Can I see your menu? I want to make sure you aren't appropriating Arab food."
1/
>"Um, what?"
"No falafel, hummus, pita, things like that."
>"But I make Israeli food!"
"No such thing. And we can't have you without also having a Palestinian food vendor."
>"Why, exactly?"
"Also, if you are Israeli and Jewish, were you in the army? That would be a problem."
2/
>"This is insulting. I'm now an American citizen."
"Even so. How many Palestinians have you killed?"
>"Now wait a min..."
"Of course, you have to be far away from the wonderful Syrian food area."
>"Why were they allowed..."

The vaccine debacle shows again a fundamental difference between the Israeli and Palestinian mentality - and why peace with Palestinians is impossible.
1/
Israelis want to find solutions to problems. Ideally, the solutions are win-win โ both sides get what they want and everyone is ahead of where they were previously.
2/
Israel had vaccines that were coming close to expiration. Palestinians were way behind in vaccinating their population, and their vaccines โ which they ordered many months ago โ were delayed.

There are more reporters in Israel/Pal territories than anywhere else.
And ALL of them look for dirt (real or imagined) from Israel, while nearly NONE of them spend any time trying to find anything negative about the corrupt, criminal Palestinian Authority.
EVERYONE KNOWS THIS.
I have a story tomorrow morning about an egregious abuse of power by the PA over the past month that has not been reported anywhere. Where are the reporters?
Consciously or not, the media colludes to make Israel look bad and to give passes to the PA. Consistently. Constantly.
This has real world consequences. It is essentially a conspiracy to ensure that the world sees Israel as evil incarnate and the Palestinians as victims of Zionist aggression, with no faults and no agency.
This utter failure of the media to report fairly causes antisemitism.
The irony is that never in history has any war where the terrorists deliberately place their targets among civilians resulted in a lower civilian to fighter ration of deaths. IN HISTORY. And most of the civilians were killed because they were near high value legitimate targets.1/
Under Geneva, civilians do not shield legitimate targets, unless their loss is not proportionate. The rules on proportionality depend on the opinion of a "reasonable military commander" given intel at that moment.
So as regrettable as this was, it was legal and part of war. 2/
Israel is literally the model for avoiding unnecessary civilian deaths - and it is vilified as some sort of monster, when its critics cannot point to any time in history that an army did better at avoiding civilian casualties.
1000 heavy bombs - and few of them killed anyone.3/
