Iran released vile textbooks instructing children to destroy ‘Great Satan’ US and Israel

Iran released vile kids textbooks featuring disturbing images of President Trump and asking children to solve math problems calculating how long a missile will take before striking Israel, The Post has learned.

The twisted tomes, entitled “We Defend Our Iran,” were released some time last year after the regime’s humiliation in the 12-Day War and also include images of intercontinental ballistic missiles launching out of a student’s backpack and other graphic war imagery.

The books, which are distributed to children in elementary, middle and high school students in Iran, were recently obtained in pdf format from the official Iranian education ministry website by Israeli nonprofit Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education (IMPACT-se).

“These textbooks show a deliberate effort to promote violence, antisemitism, and hostility toward the United States… the threat is real and the evidence is in the classroom,” IMPACT-se CEO Marcus Sheff told The Post.

The textbooks were released sometime after Israel launched a 12-day-long aerial campaign against the Islamic Republic, which also saw the United States bomb Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities Isfahan, Fordow and Natanz in Operation Midnight Hammer.

The textbook repeatedly refers to the United States as the “Great Satan,” and includes a lesson for elementary school students to calculate how long Iranian missiles would take to land in Israeli cities, according to the organization.

“The names of several powerful Iranian missiles are written below:

• Research the meaning of their names.
• Write the name of each missile along with its meaning on the classroom board.
• Write the speed of each of them in kilometers.

Based on the map in Lesson 5, can you calculate how long it takes for each of these missiles to reach Israel?” the lesson read.

Other images show rockets launched directly at a Star of David and a picture of Trump with missile-shaped marks on his cheek.

The textbook gloats about a 2016 incident, in which 10 United States Navy Soldiers were arrested at gunpoint by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps after straying into Iranian waters.

It also features a picture of Israeli cities being crushed by a giant Iranian army boot, and claims the ceasefire that ended last year’s “12-Day War” was proof Iran was the victorious power in the conflict.

School textbooks in the Middle East often feature virulent antisemitic propaganda and anti-Israel sentiment.

Palestinian school textbooks were found to contain violent antisemitic propaganda, according to a 2021 European Union study.
