A popular textbook in English for second language to students in the UK has been found to have a serious anti-Israel bias.
“I teach English as a foreign language in a further education college in Nottingham, England. I came across the attached map and couldn’t believe my eyes!” Liz Wiseman told Israel Today.
The textbook in question is “Skills in English Writing Level 1”, which includes a map of the Middle East on which Israel is nowhere to be found.
While Wiseman acknowledges she was not obligated to use this particular textbook, it is one of the more popular and mainstream English Language Teaching (ELT) textbooks published by one of the more popular and mainstream ELT publishers, Garnet Education.
Garnet Education bills itself thus:
“Garnet Education is an independent English Language Teaching (ELT) publisher, specialising in English for Academic Purposes. We produce award-winning ELT books, multimedia resources and tests for students of all ages, from kindergarten to university.”
This is far from an isolated incident, which is motivation for drawing attention to this particular case. It is not only in the Middle East where students, both adults and children, are being taught that Israel has no right to exist. The more students around the world are fed this brand of propaganda, the more remote prospects for true peace become.

My comment:
There is multiple evidence that Jew-hate in Europe is on the rise. This is just one of them.
The United Kingdom is a former occupier of Eretz Zion, the ancient homeland of the Jews. It is a disgrace that the colonialists and occupiers in London support a on Islamic terrorist-movement that wants to destroy the state of Israel.
Mark 13:19
because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again.Matthew 24:20
Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath.
The Bible speaks about persecution and horrible times for Jews, as we approach the second coming of Jesus. We are now at the entrance of these days of pure evil and endless hypocrisy.

Islam has infiltrated Great Britain and France and other nations. Sharia law is being accepted. Hatred for Israel is on the rise. We are at a precipice throughout this world. Christ will soon return.
How come they don’t have Jordan as occupied Palestine bearing in mind its 77% of the former Palestine?
What the world is doing is setting up their own destruction and that includes many so called churches. some of which say they stand with Israel and want to devide HIS LAND. Israel will stand forever and I will rejoice with them..they are my heart and G-d’s too. HE is coming with redemption as HE stands on the MT Of Olive which will always and forever belong to the JEWS. like we say…how odd that that they hatae the JEWS and then tell us they love the JEWISH JESUS…They all need to read the word themselves like G-d told us to as none of us will have an excuse. so called preachers will get double punishment..We know Yeshua is coming very very soon ! G-d bless Israel and the Jewish people , they are my heart forever. I will do anything for them..Shalom
The public educatin system has mastered the art of teaching revisionist history and humanistic/socialistic values and situation ethics even in their math books by the “incidental” things they put in the margins of the books a lot of times. They stopped teaching accurate history a long time ago.
We’re used to seeing those kind of maps in the middle East, but that they appear in an English textbook…! That just shows how far it has gone.
I smell the early (or not so early) stages of nazi Europe…
Oh, yes. Tell a lie to 99 people and 100 people believe it. That was the credo of the Hitler regime.
