A classroom in Antwerp, Belgium, has been described as a site of indoctrination, featuring decorations such as chains of invented national flags, a large flag near the blackboard, and projected images of the invented flag and keffiyehs. A lecturer reportedly told young students that the keffiyeh is a "symbol of resistance."
The presentation included a series of "shrinking" maps, from 100% down to 15%, allegedly illustrating how Israel "swallowed" land. The lecturer claimed that "since 2023 it is no longer possible to find a map, because the situation has become even worse."
Slides also depicted the "Nakba catastrophe," stating that 532 villages and cities were destroyed and 750,000 were expelled. May 14, 1948, the day Israel declared independence, was presented to students as a day of disaster.
The lecturer reportedly stated, "Every year we go out into the streets in Antwerp and around the world, because we must not forget this day. We are still living with the dream that one day we will return." The article interprets this as a call for return, suggesting it is not a history lesson but indoctrination of Europe's next generation within school walls, referring to it as "Western Islamization."
