History students fight to use textbook presenting both Israeli and Palestinian narratives - Haaretz Daily Newspaper | Israel News

Please read this article - yet again I see a story that reinforces my hope in a peaceful future in Israel. The fact that school students, supported by their teachers and school, are demanding a more balanced history text book is so heartening. The fact that these students are in a school in Sderot - yes that town whose name has been used to justify so much - is doubly heartening.
