DAMASCUS, (PIC)-- The refugees department at the Hamas movement has denounced UNRWA for imposing certain curricula on Palestinian children studying in its schools in the West Bank.
It charged in a statement on Tuesday that UNRWA had violated the principles upon which it was established, explaining that instead of aiding Palestinian refugees it was smearing history of the Palestine cause and acquitting the Zionist enemy of the crimes it committed and still is committing.
The statement said that UNRWA was feeding the schoolchildren wrong and misleading information in an attempt to make them forget about their cause and history and finally their right of return.
Palestinian children, according to UNRWA, should learn about the Holocaust and sympathize with the Jews and should not learn about their peoples Nakba and Zionist wars of annihilation waged against the Palestinian people that led to the occupation of Palestine and the displacement of millions of its people, Hamas said.
