Texas Yearbook Stirs Outrage With ‘Palestine’ Page Downplaying Attack
5th May 2024
A Texas high school yearbook has sparked outrage among the community, particularly its Jewish members, for including a “Times of Palestine” page that notably glosses over the ramifications of a Hamas terror assault on Israel, which claimed the lives of over 1,200 individuals, the N.Y. Post reports.
Houston’s Bellaire High School, which has a large population of Jewish students, features a section labeled “Times of Palestine” in its 2024 yearbook that omits crucial details regarding the Oct. 7 attack. The account provides a perspective of the Israel-Gaza conflict by an Arab student.
The page emerges amid tensions surrounding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and includes the page ostensibly as an Arab student’s narrative “of the Israel-Gaza conflict.”
Major urban areas are dominated by Democrats, even in red states like Texas. Austin is the poster child for this situation, but Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and San Antonio are just as bad.

The term, “large population”, would be more meaningful if it stated that probably 90% of the Jews in Houston live in Bellaire. Much of the area was originally covered with small, single family houses, but as it aged those houses were bought out, torn down, and huge houses built on the lots. My sister lived on one of those streets and she had the only house on the street with Christmas lights. The school district is full of liberals and full of the same quality of teachers found in most districts these days. Ironically, the Jews in the area are often lean way to the left and supported the same system that allows this sort of behavior. You reap what you sow, and the seeds of liberalism breed nothing but disaster.
