How could this happen?
Well, because for some Israelis, a significant number of Israelis, Christian iconography is considered deeply offensive. In fact, the most offensive.
So offensive that in some Israeli religious schools, the plus sign is not used in math.
The plus sign, you know, that connotes addition.
Why? Because it looks like a cross. And that's considered too offensive for the eyes of schoolchildren.
And so an inverted T is used. That's a fact. You can look it up.
There's only one other instance we've seen of this in the world, and that's in ISIS run madrasas, where the cross was also considered offensive.
This is not true in any normal Muslim country.
They use plus signs, but not in Israeli religious schools.
So everybody is allowed to have their own religious views and to find other people's symbols.
But it might be useful for Christians in the United States to know what they are funding and making excuses for.
But of course, they don't know this.
