Should Groups Accusing Israel of Apartheid be Allowed into Schools?

On today’s edition of Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten expresses his approval of the Education Ministry’s decision to ban the organization B’Tselem from speaking in Israeli schools, after the group decided to accuse Israel of being an Apartheid State. While some believe Israeli youth should be exposed to all views in order to decide on the issues for themselves, Josh asks, “where is the line?” Should Arab terrorists, neo-Nazis, or others be allowed into schools in the name of freedom of speech? At the same time Josh says that accusing Israel of Apartheid is an insult to those who experienced true Apartheid in South Africa. Plus, for the first time since the establishment of the State, Aliyah has been put on hold for a week, as the government has ordered the closure of Ben-Gurion airport in order to stifle the various corona virus mutations, which have made their way into the country.

How Does One Mistakenly Pass Out Textbooks Calling for Jihad?

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, the United Nations agency responsible for helping so-called “Palestinian refugees,” known as UNRWA says it “mistakenly included” children’s school textbooks for PA kids, which praised jihad and called for Israel’s destruction. Josh isn’t buying UNRWA’s claims of a mistake pointing out that UNRWA schools have been inciting against the Jewish State for decades through their teachings and textbooks. He says that perhaps the only mistake they made was not including enough Jew/Israel hated in their books, as they continue to keep their residents in squalor while blaming Israel for their population’s woes.
