| 'Anti-Semitism being taught in Spain schools' | |
| 2010-03-01 | |
| Israel on Sunday lodged a formal complaint with Spain, charging that anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism are being instilled in elementary students across parts of the country. The Israeli embassy in Madrid has received dozens of postcards addressed to the Israeli envoy - from students ages 5 and 6 - including hand-written messages such as "Jews kill for money," "Evacuate the country for Palestinians," and "Go to someplace where someone will be willing to accept you." According to sources in the Foreign Ministry, this is an organized campaign by officials outside the education system in Spain that have been given permission to work with the students. The Foreign Ministry had originally planned to summon the Spanish envoy to Israel, Alvaro Iranzo, to rebuke him. However, in an effort to prevent a diplomatic crisis, the ministry decided instead to discuss the matter with him via telephone. Naor Gilon, the Foreign Ministry's deputy director for Western Europe, spoke with Iranzo on Sunday and said, "Israel feels strong discontent over the postcards sent by school students and views the matter with utmost gravity." The Spanish envoy explained that the postcards were a private initiative, and not one that is part of Spain's education ministry.

| #1 Three ideas who apply not only on Spain and antisemitism but to liberal teachers indoctrinating your children. 1) Those teachers are diverting tax payer's money on advancing their political agenda. They should be forced to refund their whole salary (including payments to social security made by the state) for every month where they have engaged in political activism 2) Those teachers have betrayed the trust of the children parents. They thought that the time spent at school was spent in walking the first steps on the roads who leads to engineer degrees and good jobs. 3) Adults abusing children this way and taking advantage from the children weakness and of their own status as adults and teachers is the political equivalent of pedophilia. The only difference between the conventional pedophile and the political one is the nature of the satisfaction searched by the adult but both display the same lack of any moral limit in order to reach their ends. Fourth observation less directly related to America: Since 1975 many Spaniards feel strongly about occupation of West Sahara and expulsion of the Saharaouis by Morocco who is plundering its natural resources. I notice that those socialist and communist teachers don't feel concerned about the Saharaouis or about the fate of Blacks in Sudan, they seem only concerned by people who try to blow maternities and have sworn to complete Hitler's job. Just a coincidence. |
