Monitoring group: School textbooks in Turkey call Jews and Christians ‘infidels’
[IsraelTimes] Curriculum radicalization began under Erdogan following failed 2016 coup attempt; Israeli-Paleostinian conflict described as a religious war against Moslems.

...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
have been revised to refer to Jews and Christians as "infidels," according to a new study.

Whereas previous textbooks referred to members of those religions as "People of the Book," textbooks such as "Fundamental Religious Knowledge," a publication released after 2017 that is part of the mandatory curriculum in Ottoman Turkish elementary schools, have switched to calling them by the pejorative, according to the study published Thursday by the IMPACT-se watchdog group.

today.

The changes coincide with radicalization in Ottoman Turkish schools following the failed 2016 coup against Erdogan, leader of the Islamist Justice and Development Party, according to Marcus Sheff, the CEO of IMPACT-se.

"Schoolbooks have been weaponized in Erdogan’s attempts to Islamize Ottoman Turkish society and to hark back to a nostalgic age of Ottoman Turkish domination," Sheff wrote, adding that his group has identified "increased demonization of Israel and antisemitic aspersions."

One book, "A Contemporary Ottoman Turkish and World History," states that Israel is seeking to "reconstruct Solomon’s Temple" on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. Another accuses the Alliance Jewish schooling network and the Maccabi sports association of working against the Ottoman Turkish national independence movement.

Israel’s conflict with the Paleostinians, who are referred to as "Moslems," is described as a religious war where Israel is the aggressor.
