From PBS Learning Media for grades 9-13+...

Dying to be a Martyr

The Middle East conflict and terrorism are issues we hear about almost daily in the news. This lesson will use video segments from Wide Angle's "Suicide Bombers" (2004), Internet sites, and primary sources to examine the roots of the Middle East conflict. The video contains interviews with young Palestinians who participated -- or intended to participate -- in suicide bombings. These young Palestinians share the personal, religious, political and emotional reasons behind their participation in these suicide operations.

This lesson could be used to review information about the three major monotheistic religions and their connections to Israel, to relate post-World War II policies to the current political state of the Middle East, and/or to get students to understand the roots of the terrorism that threatens the world we live in.


PBS is normalizing this criminal activity.

We don't need to explore the roots anything regarding this. We just need to stop this activity by any means necessary. What's next - a study on Boko Haram to elementary school students about why they are choosing more young kids to do suicide bombings?

Further down - it gives guidance on Introductory Activity...

Show your students the image of the Dome of the Rock. Ask them what type of building it seems to be (a mosque). Ask your students which religion worships there (Islam). Ask your students if they know the significance of this building for Muslims (the Dome of the Rock is the site at which Muslims believe Muhammad ascended into heaven).


Your tax dollars at work... give me a break .

It's a push to get future Americans to accept Islam and let it take over. The Obama admin has absolutely infiltrated the entire public sector with Muslim Brotherhood agents that are behind this normalization of terrorism crap.

Yes, because we wouldn't want people to be educated and understand why other groups feel the way they do, right?

Facts and education are the biggest threats to right-wing politics.

What they do is barbaric and internationally illegal. The why doesn't matter one bit. Are there documentaries or lessons available on why serial killers do what they do? Nope, the information is about WHAT they did, not WHY they did it and to try to get people to understand them.

I think it is a good idea to try to understand and know our enemy.

Only RightNuts believe covering their eyes and plugging their ears solves problems.
