Palestinian Textbooks Still Deny Israel's Existence

According to the findings of the fifth survey by the Center for Monitoring the Impact of Peace (CMIP) on the new school textbooks published by the Palestinian Authority, Zionism is depicted as a racist movement with a strong connection to Western imperialism.

The infamous Protocols of the Elders of Zion is treated as a historical document, described as the confidential resolutions of the first Zionist Congress.

There is no recognition of any Jewish holy place as such.

Similarly, Israel is not recognized as a sovereign state. Its name does not appear on any maps where, in some cases, the name "Palestine" appears instead.

The city of Jerusalem is portrayed as exclusively Arab.

The facts that the Jews constitute the absolute majority in the city today, have done so for some 120 years, and that it serves as Israel's capital are ignored.
