UK Publisher Pulls Textbook Following Complaints of Anti-Israel Bias

British educational publisher Hodder Education has withdrawn a secondary-education textbook following complaints of anti-Israel bias.

According to Britain’s The JC newspaper, a report by UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) said there was “misleading and confusing content” in the textbook, written by Steve Waugh and John Wright, and titled “Conflict in the Middle East 1945-95.”

Issues of concern included calling early 20th-century Jewish immigrants “settlers,” despite them entering legally and living on legally purchased land.

The source also refers to ancient Israel “Palestine,” which was not its name until the Roman conquered it in the first century BCE.

UKLFI stated it was informed by Hodder that the publisher had “decided to remove the book from sale and will reconsider its future” after UKLFI claimed that the book “frequently refers to Jewish terrorists when their actions were against military targets.”

“It is very important that children learning about this complex subject are taught in a balanced and accurate manner,” UKLFI director Caroline Turner told The JC. “We are pleased that another misleading and inaccurate school textbook, purporting to teach about Middle East history, is being withdrawn and reconsidered.”

This follows the withdrawal in February of another Hodder Education title, “Understanding History: Key Stage 3: Britain in the Wider World, Roman Times–Present,” which suggested that Israel may have been a “long-term cause” of the 9/11 attacks.

Denying The Jewish People’s Connection To Jerusalem Would Be Laughable… If So Many Nations Didn’t Believe It

In December 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump decided to implement the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995. He recognized Jerusalem as the official capital of the State of Israel, which calls for Jerusalem to remain an undivided city, and ordered the federal government to relocate the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem—a move timed to help celebrate Israel’s 70th birthday. The UN General Assembly then countered with the “Status of Jerusalem” resolution—which passed 128 to 9, with 35 abstentions—denying the Jewish people’s connection to Jerusalem and the Temple Mount.

Global Tensions Expose The Vast Contrast Between Human Hope And God’s Promises

In the Bible, hope is closely connected to waiting. Not waiting in the sense that we are still uncertain about the outcome, but steadfastly waiting because we fully expect the outcome God promised in His Word. In other words, man’s definition of hope carries doubt. God’s does not. As such, Biblical hope is a sure foundation upon which we may base our lives, believing that God always keeps His promises.

Prophetic Pieces: As Putin Ups The Ante In The Arms Race, Russia Considers Providing Refuge To Top Iranian Leaders

Prophetic events in the end times right now are casting their shadows over the Middle East like never before. Preparations for the Gog Magog coalition prophesied in Ezekiel 38 and 39 are increasing and intensifying. Written 2,500 years ago by Ezekiel, these chapters prophesy an end-time invasion of Israel led by the nations of Russia, Iran, and Turkey. Two significant developments showcase that the prophetic pieces are falling perfectly into place.
