In the name of political correctness, some schools in the United Kingdom decided not to teach Holocaust history because it might offend "Holocaust deniers." (read: Islamofacists--oops did I offend someone?). You read that right. It has come to the point where we cannot offend deluded crazy people. Never mind that the Jewish population might be offended and that the Holocaust is a fact that was proven in a court of law in America. The good and bad should be taught in history irregardless who is offended. There should be no historical revision and should be taught without bias. Facts are facts. If you do not teach the evil of history then there is a good chance that the evil will be repeated. How would the descendents from slaves in America would like it if some American schools did not teach about slavery before the Civil War? You know the answer to that question.
On a side note, a Burlington, New Jersey school has a hostage drill that portrays killers as Christians. They are holding drills just in case the school is held hostage by some armed mentally-disturbed parents. For some reason they are thinking that these people would be Christians. Let see. Who held the hostages in an US embassy in Iran during the 1980's? Was it Christians? No, I don't think so. The answer is crazy Muslims. Also, who held a journalist hostage and chopped of his head? Again, crazy Muslims. Who just recently captured UK navy ship and just today released them saying they did that as an Easter gift to the Brits? Once more, Islamofacists. Are you detecting the pattern? Besides using Christians as an example in a mock drill is setting up wrong expectations for the students. You don't need to signal out any kind of group to do a hostage drill. That is not necessary.
What is the lesson you can learn from these schools? Offending Muslims bad, offending Jews and Christians is okay. All Islamofacists are shooting guns in the air celebrating.
