Hamas: Teaching About the Holocaust is a ‘War Crime’

Middle East • Views: 2,712

The United Nations, for the first time, is planning to introduce lessons about the Nazi Holocaust to Palestinian students in Gaza. In the twisted world of Hamas, however, this amounts to a war crime.

Hamas spiritual leader Younis al-Astal lashed out after hearing that the U.N. Relief and Works Agency, the main U.N. body aiding Palestinian refugees, planned to introduce lessons about the Holocaust to Gaza students. Adding the Holocaust to the curriculum would amount to “marketing a lie and spreading it,” al-Astal wrote in a statement.

“I do not exaggerate when I say this issue is a war crime, because of how it serves the Zionist colonizers and deals with their hypocrisy and lies,” he wrote.
