Back in May, Israel Insider published a story about a commercial on Palestinian television aimed at children: What do Palestinians teach their children?

The official Palestinian television channel has repeatedly broadcast a new commercial, aimed at Palestinian children. In the commercial, twelve-year-old Mohammed al-Durra, who was killed in crossfire at Netzarim Junction in October and subsequently became a symbol for Palestinian martyrdom, is seen waving. “I am not waving goodbye,” Mohammed’s image says. “I am waving to tell you to follow in my footsteps.”

In the background a nationalist song is playing. The lyrics state, “How pleasant is the smell of martyrs and the land, a land enriched by the blood pouring out of a fresh body.” Young children in the commercial put down their toys and pick up stones. The message is clear.
