Fruit of a poisonous tree
Arif Mohammed Khan describes a "hate culture" against India to be found in Pakistani textbooks.
One factor that has played a crucial role in creating this culture of hate is the educational policy of the government of Pakistan pursued since 1977. The officially prescribed textbooks, especially for school students, are full of references that promote hate against India in general, and Hindus in particular.
A cursory glance at Pakistani school textbooks - especially the compulsory subjects like Pakistan studies and social studies - gives an idea of how history has been distorted and a garbled version prescribed to build this mindset and attitude.
Read the whole thing then steel yourself for the fruit of this poisonous tree. Further news - including photographic evidence - of the Bombay jihadis foul work has emerged over Christmas. Many of those massacred by the jihadis had been tortured, sexually abused and mutilated and then summarily executed; the victims of this abuse including a rabbi and his pregnant wife, two of the only Jews in a country that is home to more than a billion souls.
These images are all over the dextrosphere. You owe it to yourself, to your children and their children to find them. I started with Five Feet of Fury.
