On Friday morning, September 18, 2015, the third grade classes at the Beverly J. Martin School in Ithaca, NY, heard a presentation on “human rights” by Palestinian activist Bassem Tamimi and local anti-Israel activists, led by Ariel Gold....the Tamimi event was an anti-Israel propaganda event. At least one third-grade student suffered nightmares and a Letter of Reprimand was issued to the school principal for attempting to cover-up the nature of the event....
After over a year of investigation and litigation, including a court order under the NY Freedom of Information Law, Legal Insurrection has obtained a partial video of the Tamimi Event. That partial video shows how, after the main portion of the presentation was over (for which there is almost no video), the third-grade students expressed strong hostility to Israel and were encouraged to do so....
Tamimi urged the third graders to become activists and freedom fighters for Palestine.

City of Evil bump
It’s always been liberals who say, “You’ve got to be carefully taught to hate.” I thought it was a warning. Turns out it was just instruction.
Wait until they find out that the word Palestine itself derives from “Peleshet” from the Hebrew, a name that appears frequently in the Bible and has come into English as “Philistine” meaning invader.
Excellent observation, Lady
I wonder if in their heart of hearts they know this anti-Jew stuff is baloney, and just out of hate they grind the grudge anyhow.
Ithaca=Ipecac
They’ll remember but not exactly when they grow up and find out the real truth. What’s scary is how liberalism has taken over public schools.

Faux-liberalism has so inundated our scene that it simply gets called “liberalism.”
This hides the real McCoy from both faux-liberals and conservatives.
We too need to remember history. The term liberal appeared as a method of philosophy that allowed for liberty, rather than being rigidly doctrinaire, in searching for answers for truth and beauty, believing these matters could defend themselves. The liberty is gone now, and the truth and beauty have been exchanged for hateful lies and ugliness.
‘local anti-Israel activists, led by Ariel Gold’
One would suspect that Ariel Gold is Jewish. I REALLY don’t get anti-Israel Jews. Christians are so supportive of Israel, how does any Jew reject it?
This invites an obvious line of exhortation!
For some Jews, and many Ithaca Jews, leftism is the one true religion.
Because Christianity isn’t even about a land but rather about God everywhere, and then Christians learn that God in fact still cares about a certain land (and then mostly agree).
Jews who wanted to turn historical Israel into trash are a story as old as the bible.
Some come from a place of hating the Jewish identity because the Jewish identity is hated worldwide, while the religious ones think it's against Torah for Israel to exist without Mashiach, or Israel is really the whole world.
The simple fact is Jews aren't welcome in any other nation except Israel.
BINGO... AND liberals tend to project onto others what they're doing... it's how we know what they're up to.
