UN is funding summer camps honoring terrorists

By Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch, July 25, 2003

Palestinian Media Watch has been reporting on the repeated Palestinian Authority naming
of children’s camps this summer after terrorists, including suicide terrorists, and it seems
from the mention of “UNICEF” in the PA papers that the UN is a significant supporter of these
camps.

The summer camps, are often named after specific terrorists or just the general term
“Shahid”, meaning “Died for Allah”, the term the PA uses to honor the terrorists, as well as
others who died in the conflict with Israel. A girl’s summer camp was named after Wafa Idris, a
woman suicide terrorist.

Beyond the act of naming the summer camps for terrorists, the camps include activities and
lectures designed to present the terrorists as role models and heroes for the children, such as
visits to their families, discussions about them and more.

The camps are under the auspices of the Palestinian Authority Ministry of Youth and
Sports and UNICEF is singled out and thanked in news articles for their financial support of
the camps.

The following are some articles mentioning UNICEF or describing the activities, from among many
other similar articles:

  1. “Yesterday the activities of the scouts’ Shahid camp in Dir Al-Ballah were
    officially unveiled … under the supervision of the scouts’ authority in the Youth and Sports
    Department … and with the support of UNICEF. 140 scouts of both sexes took part in the camp
    …”

  2. In the Ibn-Al-Hitham elementary school in Nablus, activities at the “Shahids of Chattin”
    summer camp drew to a close. This had been organized by the Youth and Sports
    Department, in conjunction with the Chattin division scouts’ club, UNICEF and the national
    committee for summer camps. In honor of this event a grand ceremony took place …

    Al-Issui gave a speech on behalf of the Minister of Youth and Sport in which he recalled
    the Shahids for Palestine, after whom the camp was named. During the ceremony there were
    artistic interludes presented by the Shahid Mahmad Al-Tzabar choir, along with the Shahid Abu
    Jibran Group and the group the two Shahid brothers Kemal and Tissir Abu-Shahab
    …”

  3. “Yesterday, activities ended in the camp named after the Shahida Wafa
    Idris, for girls in the city of Kalkiliya. The camp was founded by the Scout general administration
    in the Ministry of Youth and Sports. The camp was under the supervision of the Scouts in the
    Kalkiliya Administration and about 100 girls from the organizing committee of the city’s Scouts
    participated.

    … to UNICEF for its support of
    the camps.”

  4. “The Palestinian Union for Culture, Sciences and Development continues with the
    activities of the fifth round of the summer camps (which) bears the title: “The Shahid
    Al-Amarin.” [150 boys and girls aged 12 and 13 are taking part in this camp.]

    Yesterday the camp’s participants went to the home of the Shahid Jihad
    Al-Amarin, where (they were greeted by) the Shahid’s wife, children and family. During the visit
    there were speeches praising the virtues of the Shahid Jihad Al-Amarin, who was assassinated a
    year ago by the forces of the occupation.

    The Shahid’s wife expressed her joy at our people’s loyalty to her husband, stating that
    the Shahid Jihad followed a national mission. During the visit the Shahid’s wife was presented
    with the camp’s shield.”
