Textbooks in Israel and Palestinia schools generally describes the conflict unilaterally and ignoring the existence of both sides, as revealed in a study.
In the Israeli-Palestinian public relations wars, it’s conventional
wisdom that the textbooks used in schools in the West Bank and Gaza
breed hatred for Israel. “They have textbooks that say, ‘If there are 13 Jews and nine Jews are killed, how many Jews are left?” Newt Gingrich said when he was running for the Republican presidential nomination. “These textbooks don't give Palestinian children an education, they give them an indoctrination," Hillary Clinton said in 2007, when she was a New York senator, based on criticism from an Israeli media watchdog
after the Palestinians produced their own full curriculum of text books
for grades 1 through 12 for the first time. In 2011, an institute known
as IMPACT-SE issued a report with similar findings.
