Education: New York Public School Textbooks, East Jerusalem Texbooks under scrutiny. Please forward...

bs"d

BH Good people are addressing serious problems in the Educational Textbooks of children here in NY. Kudos to those involved in  introducing legislation to regulate textbooks material, Assemblyman Brian Curran (Lynbrook-21st A.D.)  Assemblyman Dov Hikind (Brooklyn-48th A.D.)  Rubber Room Romance Author Cindy Grosz and  Curriculum Watch Leader Dr. Sandra Alfonsi.  Parents, at least in America, assume that textbooks are educationally sound.  But that isn't necessarily the case. Kids nurtured on false and hateful ideology grow up quickly and translate their knowledge into hateful, antisemitic, racist actions.  We don't want our children nor any other children to use such textbooks as part of their curriculum.   This is very important legislation. Kol HaKavod!

We see how hateful textbooks translate to violent acts of terror.  In Israel it is no wonder that Israeli's are being fatally stabbed by Arab teens 13, 14, 15 even younger. It started with their education at a young age. They were educated on Palestinian Sesame Street and UNRWA Camps.

Kudos to ILF (Israel Legal Forum)!
