On the second thought, I think that Ami chose the lesser insult (shorthanded to PHT) then me, healthily thinking patriots, because I was actually insulting patriotism, and that is not nice.

That said, the policy of allowing trolls to exists but refusing to feed them seems inhumane. It is better to try to turn a discussion in a creative direction. Ami, trolls are already pathetic and you want to starve them to boot?

And the trolls indeed seem morose at best (“pathetic” is judgmental and thus debatable). None defended the answers that the children learned! And none offered a positive dream for the future, except for some grim version of survival.

Last word: Ami, you are too testy. Compared with average commenters in JPost and ynetnews, right wingers here are moderate and made some effort to offer good arguments. As the (relative) moderates, they have their limits, like defending the designers of the hasbara course for the children.

Sure. Hasbara is a method of dealing with reality by obfuscation and falsification. As I observed before, you did not even try to defend the answers given by the children except for the claim that a quiz in Jordan or Lebanon would have symmetric results.

Putting PHT version together, teaching chidren b..t is a part of struggle and not teaching children b..t would constitute an unwarranted advantage conferred upon the enemy, thus jeopardizing physical existence of the Jewish state, and personal safety of the Jewish people.

btw, ever notice how the progressive left and the religious are similar in their responses? You all use a different set of words, but they are in fact interchangeable:

and you all have the same intolerance…..just different sides of the same coin.
