ONU vai ensinar sobre o Holocausto em GAZA

 

A ONU parece disposta a implementar suas próprias decisões em relação ao Holocausto e pretende incluir seu ensino nas escolas secundárias de Gaza. São não fica claro se é em todas ou nas administradas pela UNRWA que é o comitê da ONU para os refugiados palestinos, o comitê que mantém os palestinos como status de refugiados. Na nota, a ONU diz que vai discutir com a "comunidade local" e os líderes do Hamas já se posicionaram: "Ensinar isso é fazer o marketing de uma mentira..." Notou que não se fala de ensinar na Cisjordânia? Bem, Mahmoud Abbas era um dos principais revisionistas árabes do Holocausto.

A UN agency is producing a human rights curriculum which is to be proposed for inclusion in the studies of secondary school pupils. It is to be discussed with the local community within weeks.

At least one senior UN official in Gaza has said he is confident the Holocaust will become part of the curriculum adopted by local schools.

There is intense opposition from Hamas hardliners however.

Yunis al Astal, a Hamas member of the Palestinian Legislative Council, is reported to have said that including the details of the murder of six million Jews by the Nazis in school teaching would be "marketing a lie". Those responsible for teaching the Holocaust would be committing a "war crime", he added.

The UN Relief and Works Agency, which provides aid to Palestinians living in grim conditions in Gaza while governed by Hamas and under a tight Israeli blockade, insists that teaching the Holocaust to local children will help them understand the need for human rights. It will also help them to understand propaganda and "anti-semitic rhetoric".
