New Jersey teachers, "Educators for Palestinian Liberation", are advocates for terror and sad Nasrallah is dead
Educators for Palestinian Liberation aren't shy about their extreme views, rejecting "normalization" and lionising "armed resistance".
Educators for Palestinian Liberation call themselves ‘principled’ educators who uphold “Al-Thawabet”.
What is Al-Thawabet?
“Where liberal western personalities attempt to hog the narrative and zionist propaganda machines work overtime to infiltrate the Liberation Movement with traitors and normalizers, we stand to refuse and reject all forms of treachery and uphold the principles upon which our Palestinian heroes (both of past and present) have sacrificed their lives for”
…apparently Educators for Palestinian Liberation don’t know you’re not supposed to end a sentence on a preposition or they would have helped rewrite this bit…
To Reiterate - these teachers say “Yes to armed resistance” and no to liberal Western norms
….Perhaps they might “fight towards a free Palestine” rather than “plight”…but they sure are continuing the Palestinian plight with these extreme views.
“Liberation will be achieved only when the land is cleansed of every single settler alongside the traitors and the spies”
Indeed - for the followers of al-Thawabet, extreme groups like Jewish Voice for Peace are too conciliatory - they are considered “normalizers” and “Zionist infiltrators”
Educators for Palestinian Liberation - New Jersey-based teachers uphold the “principles” and “mission” of Al-Thawabet. And they are teaching your kids.
Educators for Palestinian Liberation have ties to TeachingWhileMuslim and Thuraya Zeidan of Decolonize the Classroom (both previously covered in this substack)
They follow each other on instagram and Educators for Palestinian Liberation even link to the TeachingWhileMuslim website.
TeachingWhileMuslim and Zeidan present as legitimate resources to learn about the Palestinian cause, diversity and multiculturalism - they are hired to give talks and provide resources to schools - and yet, their views are extreme.
The Educators for Palestinian Liberation website, under resources, provides links to organizations like Samidoun and WithinOurLifetime
Samidoun has ties to terrorist organizations like the PFLP and has been banned from operating in Germany.
WithinOurLifetime - an anti-Zionist, pro-Hamas, “protest” movement advocates for the end of Israel “by any means necessary” and which has led many of the violent, disruptive protests in New York since October 7th and which also produced a map of Jewish organizations for their followrs to harrass.
8 Rules of War: The Educators for Palestinian Liberation - teachers in New Jersey - posted these rules of war to their instagram page. Very educational.
“Forget about the ethics and impartiality of journalism”
“Every Palestinian is on the front lines of the battle for Palestine, so be careful not to fail in your duty”
Finally - in case you thought this was just about Israel or the “zionist entity” - Educators for Palestinian Liberation are here to disabuse you of this notion - you must be anti-imperalist, anti-capitalist. It is not enough to be anti-zionist, you must be for “decolonization”
These Extremist teachers - who support and advocate for terror, who reject “normalization” with Israel, who reject liberal Western values - are in classroom in New Jersey, teaching your children. Be vigilant about what goes on in your child’s school.
