Abstract

The author discusses the challenges facing teachers when discussing the ethical importance of Just War principles and stipulations in the school classrooms in warn-torn Palestine. He adds that the classroom discussions will have to insist on defining terrorism not by identity of the perpetrator or the types of weapons used, but by moral criteria and standards. He asserts that scholars have social, political, and moral responsibilities for what they conceptualize through various means.
