US Congress to hear report on UNRWA's misuse of US funds to incite hate
|
[Ynet] A report detailing the connection between the education received in UNRWA schools in the Gaza Strip and the October 7 massacres carried out by Hamas in southern Israel will be presented to the US House of Representatives on Wednesday.
The 123-page report was released by the Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education, known as IMPACT-SE, an Israeli NGO that analyzes school textbooks and teaching curriculums to determine whether they conform with international standards derived from UNESCO's declarations and resolutions, with the aim of preventing the radicalization of children and encouraging tolerance, pluralism and peaceful conflict resolution.
According to the report, titled "UNRWA Education: Textbooks and Terror," education takes up 58% of the budget of UNRWA, the United Nations' agency for Palestinian refugees. It says that UNRWA operates 183 schools in the Gaza Strip, catering to more than 286,000 students, and those schools use the Palestinian Authority's curriculum, which is taught across the Gaza Strip, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
The report said that, despite reforms in 2016, the PA's textbooks "have remained openly antisemitic and continue to encourage violence, jihad and martyrdom, while peace is not taught as preferable or even possible. Extreme nationalism and Islamist ideologies proliferate throughout the curriculum, including in science and math textbooks."
