I was reminded by something I read recently of the old point that there's nothing in Zionism that precludes the acceptance of a Palestinian Arab state. The trouble is, Palestinian Nationalism does preclude the existence of a Jewish one. Evidence is this repeated indoctrination of the kids to consider cities definitively inside of what everyone (except they) considers part of Israel, as a part of something called "Palestine."
Palestinian Media Watch: Palestinian TV children's quizzes teach that there is no Israel:
Palestinian children are taught through formal and informal education to see a world in which "Palestine" exists and replaces all of Israel. Two children's quizzes broadcast last week on Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority television show how the PA routinely teaches its children to identify all Israeli cities as Palestinian cities.
In the two quizzes on PA TV, children were asked to identify "Palestinian" cities. The suggested answers were exclusively Israeli cities: Haifa, Jaffa, Acre and Tiberias.
The following are the transcripts of the PA TV quizzes:
Quiz 1: Haifa, Jaffa and Acre are "Palestine"
Host reads clue: "Where is Palestine's most important port, in Haifa, Jaffa or Acre?"
Child: "Jaffa."
Host: "Is it correct?" [Checks computer.]
Host: "Bravo!"

This may be particularly disturbing to Israelis who actually live in Haifa, Jaffa, etc...

Quid pro quo, no? You know, those Yids are always talking about taking everything from the Nile to the Euphrates, right? I hear they teach that to every yeled in the gan.
(Du calme, David! It's sarcasm. And those nasty Hebrew words are just bastardizations of standard Palestinian high-classic Arabic.)
Its disgusting the amount of hate they teach those
kids. Its shows how horrible things are in muslim
countries. The west at some point has to see this
threat or in my view we are doomed. I am somewhat
skeptical that enough people are willing to look at this in a serious manner are but we have to be
hopeful and keep fighting.
And the UN through UNWRA teaches that the Holocaust is not a human rights issue.

Karen Abu Zayd, the Commissioner-General of UNRWA, sounded very much like a Hamas official when she said at a press conference, “I can refute allegations that the UN school curriculum includes anything about the Holocaust … we focus on human rights in curriculum … and the murder of six million Jews and five million other undesirables…is not a human rights issue.”
You will note that she groups the Jews with "other undesirables".
The link got screwed.
