How ironic that many of these same liberals who think the Holocaust was a lie equate us climate change skeptics with being as evil as Holocaust deniers
"On the eve of the memorial Day of the Israel Defense Forces, we are the survivors from Holocaust to Revival - that's the story of our country. Watch a short film and salute the glory of Israel" (partially edited for typos)
Tablet Magazine "The assignment materials cited Holocaust deniers, and represent a gross failure of judgment—and historical awareness"
"After decades spent in the sewers of anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial, I don’t horrify easily. But yesterday I learned that a school district in Rialto, California, assigned 2,000 8th-grade students to write an essay on whether or not they believe the Holocaust was “an actual event in history, or merely a political scheme.”
"Put simply, this is the greatest victory for Holocaust denial in well over a decade, if not more.
"The language of the assignment is worth reading in full:" ... Full article..

General Eisenhower Warned Us.
It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower..., found the victims of the death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.
He did this because he said in words to this effect:
'Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened'
The UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet.. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the, six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians, and 1,900 Catholic priests Who were 'murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on and humiliated' while many in the world looked the other way!
Now, more than ever, with Iran , among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets. ...
