AS VIOLENCE IN TERRITORIES PERSISTS, WE CONTINUE TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION BACKGROUND INFORMATION PUBLISHED BY THE IDF CENTRAL COMMAND IN COOPERATION WITH THE IDF SPOKESMAN'S UNIT EDUCATIONAL MESSAGE TO KINDERGARTEN CHILDREN IN GAZA : "KILLING JEWS - A RELIGIOUS RITE" PA FAILS TO PREVENT ON-GOING INCITEMENT AGAINST ISRAEL AND ENCOURAGES MASS ACTS OF TERROR A Palestinian boy aims a toy rifle during a rally against Israel by Palestinian children in Gaza. In May the Hamas held a demonstration in the center of Ramallah, during which a model of an Israeli bus was burnt as an act of support and encouragement for the perpetration of major terror attacks against civilian targets in Israel. The bus was set alight by a Hamas activist who was wearing a burial shroud featuring the words : "Al Aqsa troops, Suicide bomber no. 7". Palestinian security forces allowed the demonstration to be held and took no steps against the organizers or participants. At an end-of-year ceremony at Hamas-run kindergartens in Gaza, the children performed a play with messages such as: Praise the Jihad against Israel and the Jews, an oath for the release of all Palestine and the murder of Jews is encouraged as a "religious precept". Alongside 1650 children, Hamas leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and a senior movement official - Ahmed Bahar attended the demonstration as well, and called on the teacher to continue educating the younger generation on values such as "the love of Jerusalem, the love of Palestine, love of the Jihad and love of the struggle". The PA which is conducting a violent confrontation with a clear pattern of terrorism, allows the terrorist organizations (including Fatah, led by Arafat himself), to enlist popular support by way of the "armed struggle" and is educating generations of hatred for Israel and the murder of Jews wherever they are.
