In spite of the peace talks the PA continues to educate its people to
envision a world without Israel, presenting Israeli cities and
regions as "Palestinian."
Last week, PA TV rebroadcast an educational documentary that has been
broadcast numerous times since 2007. The documentary describes the
Israeli cities of Haifa, Acre, Ashkelon, Jaffa and the Sea of Galilee
as Palestinian.
PA TV is under the direct control of the office of PA Chairman
Mahmoud Abbas.
The following is the transcript of the excerpt of the PA TV
documentary:
"The West Bank and Gaza have another section in Palestine which is
the Palestinian coast that spreads along the [Mediterranean] sea,
from ...Ashkelon in the south, until Haifa, in the Carmel Mountains.
Haifa is a well-known Palestinian port. [Haifa] enjoyed a high status
among Arabs and Palestinians especially before it fell to the
occupation [Israel] in 1948. To its north, we find Acre. East of
Acre, we reach a city with history and importance, the city of
Tiberias, near a famous lake, the Sea of Galilee. Jaffa, an ancient
coastal city, is the bride of the sea, and Palestine´s gateway to the
world." [PA TV (Fatah), Oct. 1, 2010, and dozens of times 2007 - 2010]
