Official PA TV teaches children
that Israel will come to an end:
"All of Palestine will return to us"
By Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
Despite assurances from Palestinian Authority leaders that they support a two-state solution and want to live side by side with Israel, the PA continues to teach children that Israel will come to an end.
Showing a drawing of a map of "Palestine" which included all of Israel together with the PA areas, the host on official PA TV stated that "all of Palestine will return to us":
Official PA TV host to girl:"Hold up [your drawing of] the map of Palestine. How nice! Allah willing, all of Palestine will return to us and we will enjoy its breathtaking views."
PA Minister of Education Sabri Saidam recently illustrated this same message - that all of Israel is "Palestine":
The picture shows Minister Saidam participating in the program In the Minister's Seat on official PA TV together with a young girl, Sidra Al-Shawamreh. The minister is holding a plaque of honor featuring the PA map of "Palestine" that includes all of Israel.

Abbas' Fatah Movement also disseminates the message that all of Israel is "Palestine" as seen in this drawing of a tattoo with the title "Jordan and Palestine":
