The “March for Israel” in Washington, D.C., was a great response to pro-Hamas mobs. But ending the source of a rising tide of Jew-hatred requires opposing the woke ideology that created it.

The traditional Christmas mass and prayers will still take place, but without Christmas trees or festive lights.
The root of all modern-day evils for the new left is colonialism, and Israel is, they claim, a colonialist power.
Will we sell our souls to claim the moral high ground?
“This is in fact the actualization of a globalized intifada through violence,” said the president of Federation CJA of the sharp spike in antisemitism since Oct. 7.
“We knew there was an urgent need to replace ambulances that were stolen and destroyed. To know ours is part of this historic effort is incredibly gratifying,” said Pastor Larry Huch.

As the head of the Nahum Bedein Center for Near East Policy Research, I have covered the Palestinian Authority school system since the very first day that the PA began to issue its own textbooks on August 1, 2000.
Having met with and received personal authorization from Yasser Arafat to receive and review all textbooks issued by the Palestinian Authority and used by UNRWA schools in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and Gaza, the center engaged Dr. Arnon Groiss to review more than 1,000 school books issued by the PA.
Dr. Groiss, fluent in Arabic, holds a Phd in Islamic Studies from Princeton University, and a Masters Degree in Public Administration at Harvard, and served as the deputy director of Arab language services at the Israel Broadcasting Authority. In that context, asked the EU spokesman if the EU would take proactive steps to remove incitement from PA and UNRWA schools.
This is the EU response:
“The 2022 assistance package in support of Palestine was adopted on 16 December 2022. Education was not included in the incentive‐based tranche of the PEGASE mechanism. The EU remains firmly committed to promoting inclusive and quality education for the Palestinian people, including to ensuring full adherence with the United Nations values and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (Unesco) standards and norms in the field of education and in all education material. The Palestinian Authority must ensure the highest standards in fostering a culture of peace and coexistence paving the way for a future where the conflict can be solved through negotiations leading to a two-state solution.”
It continued,
“The EU has no tolerance for incitement to hatred and violence, as means to *achieve political goals *, the glorification of ‘armed resistance’ and antisemitism in all its forms. Any material that goes against these principles risks undermining peace and coexistence and has no place in textbooks or classrooms.”
The paragraph in the EU letter saying: “The EU has no tolerance for incitement to hatred and violence as means to achieve political goals, the glorification of ‘armed resistance’ and antisemitism in all its forms” was really encouraging.

Response of the EU Dept. of Foreign Affairs and Security Affairs
“Regarding your questions, the EU is firmly committed to promote inclusive and quality education for the Palestinian people, including to ensure full adherence with the United Nations values and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (Unesco) standards and norms in the field of education and in all education material. Since 2021, the EU has stepped up its engagement with the Palestinian Authority in this regard. The Palestinian Authority must ensure the highest standards in fostering a culture of peace and coexistence paving the way for a future where the conflict can be solved through negotiations leading to a two-state solution.
“The EU has no tolerance for incitement to hatred and violence, as means to achieve political goals, the glorification of ‘armed resistance’ and antisemitism in all its forms. Any material that goes against these principles risks undermining peace and coexistence and has no place in textbooks or classrooms. This position was reiterated recently in the statements published following the latest events in Jenin and Jerusalem.”
The EU and other European donors collectively support the Palestinian education sector and the provision of quality services in a wide range of ways. The EU does not fund any textbooks. There are no UNRWA textbooks.
UNRWA always uses the textbooks of the host in question. It regularly reviews the textbooks and learning materials used in UNRWA schools under its Curriculum Framework, which aims to ensure that the curriculum is in line with UN values….
My response to the EU Dept. of Foreign Affairs and Security Affairs
Concerning the claim that UNRWA “aims to ensure that the curriculum is in line with UN values”:
No EU answer to my response.
