The Classroom is the Battlefield
We thought October 7th was the wake-up call.
But the real wake-up call came a month later — in the hallways of American schools.
Children who had never heard of Hamas were suddenly shouting for a Jewish genocide as casually as calling out a TikTok dance. Teenagers who couldn’t find Israel on a map felt very sure it shouldn’t exist. And college students the “best and brightest” were blocking bridges and chanting for the death of Jews with the smug confidence of people who believe they are morally superior.
Where did that certainty come from?
It wasn’t born in Gaza.
It was planted in middle school social studies.
The next war won’t start with rockets.
It will start with curriculum, vocabulary, and who sits on the school board.
While we were sleeping, they wrote the script
We didn’t lose control of the narrative in October 2023 we lost it years earlier when schools quietly replaced Jewish history with a “decolonization”........
