"The land that was stolen from us

There is absolutely no difference between official Palestinian Authority and Hamas TV programming for children when
it comes to not recognizing Israel's existence and envisioning a future
without Israel: Both Hamas and Mahmoud Abbas' PA actively teach
children to ignore Israel's existence, emphatically reject Israel's
right to exist, and anticipate its eventual destruction and replacement
by "Palestine."
This message was taught three times in the last month on a PA TV children's program, Best Home, and on a Hamas children's program, Tomorrow's Pioneers
last Friday. The joint Hamas-PA message to children is: Israel has no
right to exist, its destruction is inevitable, and all of Israel will
eventually be replaced by "Palestine."

One time, the PA TV moderator held up a drawing of a map of Israel and the Palestinian Authority areas and said:
"Can you see the map of Palestine? All of it will return to us, Allah willing. All of this map will return to us."

Another time, the PA TV host said:
"Who told you we
will forget Haifa, Jaffa, Acre and Jerusalem? We will never forget them
- we won't forget any of our beautiful cities occupied by the
occupation. We will return to them one day. They will return to us one
day, my children friends." [Official PA TV, May 2, 2014]
A third time, the PA TV host said:
"I want to tell
you, my children friends, that the land that was stolen from us - the
occupied land - will return to us one day... (adding later) the Ramle
district (i.e., central Israel), our stolen lands, our occupied lands to
which we will return one day." [Official PA TV, April 25, 2014]
A Hamas TV program educated children to reject Israel's existence by asking a
young girl questions about capital cities in the Middle East. When
asked about Israel's capital, the girl made a sign with her hand
rejecting the existence of such and responded: "There is no Israel -
Palestine." The host responded, "There isn't. You're so clever,
sweetie."
Child host: "What is the capital of Palestine?"
Very young girl: "Al-Quds [Jerusalem]." ...
Child host: "What is the capital of Jordan?"
Girl: "Amman." ...
Child host: "And Egypt?"
Girl: "Cairo."
Child host: "Cairo, good. Israel?"
Girl [makes gesture of negation with her hand]: "There is no Israel - Palestine." ...
Host: "There is no Israel - only Palestine. Superb."
Nahul the bee: "It doesn't exist, doesn't exist. Excellent..."
Host: "Speak up, speak up. Tell me again, does Israel have a capital?" ...
Girl: "There is no Israel - Palestine."
Host: "There isn't. You're so clever, sweetie."

Recently, Palestinian Media Watch documented another instance of incitement on Hamas children's programming in which a young Al-Aqsa TV host and a cuddly puppet on the show encouraged a child to "shoot all the Jews."
Click to see more examples of the PA and Fatah denying Israel's right to exist and replacing it with "Palestine."
The following are excerpts of the three episodes of the PA TV children's program Best Home that teach children that all of Israel will be replaced by "Palestine":
Sabrin, young singer: "We
are going [abroad] to send a message to everyone, that there are
Palestinian children, that we are still alive. Some people abroad think,
'No, they're dead. There's only Israel, there's no such thing as
Palestine.' No, we say that Palestine exists, and Palestine will return
to us, and there is no such thing as Israel.
PA TV host: "Bravo!"
Sabrin: "There is something called the occupied lands."
Host:"Bravo, bravo, bravo!"...
PA TV host, holding up a drawing of a map: "Alma
has brought drawings with her, a map of Palestine - can you see the map
of Palestine? All of it will return to us, Allah willing. All of this
map will return to us. The key (i.e., symbol of Palestinian ownership of
all of the land Israel). It's upside down. All of this map, friends,
will return to us. Right, Alma?"
Girl: "Right."
Host: "All of it is ours, right?"
Girl: "Yes."
Host: "Even if they took it from us, we will take it back one day, right?"
Girl: "Right."

Boy recites a poem: "I swear, my homeland,
I will not forget Beit Shean, Acre and Tiberias (i.e., cities in Israel)
Can I forget Lod and Ramle? Can I forget the golden Jaffa (i.e., cities in Israel)?
Can I forget Jenin of Al-Qassam (i.e., leader of Muslim terror group)?
Can I forget Arab Jerusalem?"
PA TV host: "Fantastic,
fantastic, fantastic! Bravo, bravo, bravo, bravo! Who told you we will
forget Haifa, Jaffa, Acre and Jerusalem? We will never forget them - we
won't forget any of our beautiful cities occupied by the occupation. We
will return to them one day. They will return to us one day, my children
friends. I want to take this opportunity to send a greeting to all of
our friends in the 1948 lands (i.e., Israel), our occupied lands."
[Official PA TV, May 2, 2014]
Girl reads a poem: "Many polytheists have conquered Jerusalem...
And now its original inhabitants cannot enter it.
Alas for the refugees who were banished
from the cities and villages of Palestine
that is called Israel today."
PA TV host: "Bravo,
bravo, bravo... I want to tell you, my children friends, that the land
that was stolen from us - the occupied land - will return to us one day.
We will continue to defy the occupation and will continue to stand firm
against the occupation until our land returns to us and Jerusalem is
ours... Do you know where our friend Yahya is from? Tell them."
Boy: "From the Ramle district."
PA TV host: "From the Ramle district - our stolen lands, our occupied lands to which we will return one day. We will return to them, right?"
Girl: "Of course."
