Did they really bring up how the Arab massacred the Israelis during the partitioning when they talked about the 6 day war? If that was what you meant you should have said that, but you didn't so I don't believe it, to me it looks like you just wanted them to talk about Israeli atrocities there and not what the Arabs did to them before. If you meant they should have brought up the preceding conflict when talking about the 6 day war you wouldn't just have mentioned what Israel did there. So the only way I can read your post is that you wanted the coverage to be one sided. But maybe you were just unclear and you meant "I wanted to hear about how the conflicts escalated and arabs massacred jews which lead to jews massacring arabs and then repeat in an ever increasing spiral of violence", if so can you please clarify that is what you meant here and say you should have been clearer in your original comment? | ||||||||

My point is that the coverage I received in highschool civics WAS one sided in which jews were shown as heroes fighting to create a country against all odds and all the countries around it wanted to destroy them because they were jews. The very institutions that we created to educate them against propaganda have themselves been used to instill propaganda. In this case, the very real islamaphobia and dehumanization of arabs that runs at the core of american culture. | ||||||||
