Palestine, anti-Semitism and school education.

EU working definition of anti-Semitism includes the following examples ''of the ways in which antisemitism manifests itself with regard to the State of Israel taking into account the overall context could include:

• Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.
• Applying double standards by requiring of it a behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation.''

3. What is written about right if Jewish people for self-determination? If anything.
