Every summer, Palestinian Authority (PA) summer camps actively indoctrinate children with the PA’s hate and terror messages.
One of the fundamental motivations for Palestinian hate and terror has always been Palestinian denial of Israel’s right to exist. Even after the Oslo Accords, when it spoke to its own people, the PA has presented all of Israel as “occupied Palestine,” Israeli cities as “Palestinian cities,” and presented the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and PA map of the world, in which “Palestine” replaces Israel, as an achievable goal.
This summer, refusing to recognize Israel’s existence in any borders and anticipating a world without Israel, is a major theme of PA summer camps.
Anticipating a World Without Israel
The PA summer camps present children with a future world without Israel in many ways:
To make sure that the message is perfectly clear, all the following Israeli cities are named and presented as “Palestinian” cities: Haifa, Jaffa, Tiberias, Acre, Ashkelon, Lod, Beit Shean, Safed, Nazareth, Be’er Sheva, Jerusalem, Ramle, and the Negev.
The following are examples of visuals used in the PLO summer camps that the PA uses to create an atmosphere of a world without Israel:

Text on the below balloons are mostly Israeli cities: “Acre, Haifa, Ashkelon, Jerusalem, Ramle, Be’er Sheva (i.e., all Israeli cities). Ballons also have names Hebron, Jenin, and Tulkarem.”

One summer camp even painted the PA map that erases Israel on Palestinian children’s bodies. The top picture shows a Palestinian camp counselor in the summer camp painting a girl’s face in the shape of the PA map of “Palestine” in the colors of the PA flag.

In a classroom in PA summer camp in Jerusalem, children are taught that “Palestine” includes all of Israel. “Palestine,” The Mediterranean Sea, Sea of Galilee, and Dead Sea are all marked on the map.

These maps and messages reconfirm the PA ideology that Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) has exposed, which shows the PA’s goal is Israel’s destruction and replacement by a state of “Palestine”.
This also reconfirms other children’s education PMW exposed in Fatah’s Waed educational magazine for young children:
