"How could it be argued that the creation of Israel was a long-term cause of the 9/11 attacks?"Via Tom Gross, writer:
The conspiracy fear-mongering against Jews in the UK (as elsewhere) often starts young. The above photo is from a new textbook for British schoolchildren aged between 11 and 14, published by Hodder Education, called "Understanding History". (Just to be clear, as I have mentioned before, in Osama bin Laden’s speeches and recordings in 2001 explaining his reasons for the 9/11 attacks, he mentioned many issues, such as the Saudi royal family links to America, and the conflict in Kashmir, but he barely mentioned Israel or the Palestinians.)
The question being posed shows a lack of knowledge of historical antisemitism and blaming the Jews for problems elsewhere, conspiracies that paved the way for hundreds of thousands of Europeans to commit, assist in, or celebrate the Holocaust.
These are the authors of the schoolbook: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=qi6bDwAAQBAJ

Update: Hodder have just announced they will withdraw the book from sale and remove that sentence. However, thousands of the existing books are already being used in schools.
