The lessons learned from the Holocaust, regardless of the circumstances (who was involved) can be applied to any group and the consequences for not standing up to injustice and atrocity is clear.
Why would any Muslim want to have this piece of history and its lessons removed from the curriculum and what the youth can and should learn from it. Would they not want the world to stand up and stop such an event if it was happening to them? History has a funny way of repeating its self when you forget the past and I'm not sure anyone should want this forgotten because next time it just may be them.
The Jewish faith was the recipient of this particular event but this type of action is not just confined to one faith and I just can't for the life of me figure out why you would take this out of the schools?
I agree someone needs to stand up and say the only response that is appropriate "No, the Holocaust is a fact and we are going to teach it." End of discussion.

EXACTLY!
I spent a couple years in Bosnia with K4 and believe me I had seen first hand what an attempt at a Complete irradication of a specific religious group is all about. Granted at the time it was the serbian guard that were mass culling the muslim sects,I dont want to forget that as well.
I find it curious that we never get credit in the Muslim communities for helping bring to an end the slaughter of Muslims by a Christian fanatic and get branded infidels and are subject to irradication ourselves because we dont believe what they do. If we took that out of a curriculum there would be mass rioting and suicide bombings.
It just makes me sick.All the double standards make me sick.
I think I am just getting tired of it all. Noone in my family owned slaves so why the fuck do certain people in the USA want an apology?You aint going to get one so fucking move on!
Why do I have embrace everyone elses diversity while I watch my own culture get diluted and thrown into the toilet for the sake of political correctness??
I'm 39 now and only untill recently have I actualy become aware that I should be ashamed of who I am because of my Nationality and skin color. So what if I'm white? I can be proud of that and not be racist! So what if I am an American? I am proud of that as it is my identity and wouldnt trade it for the world! Why should I change to adapt to everyone elses ways.
I like who I am so fuck anyone who wants me to change to suit their own pathetic ways.
Time to pack up the 109 and head home from this socialist trainwreck of a goverment here in the UK back to where it is at the very least OK to be me.
