So it turns out that the UN has been asking permission of Hamas to include the Holocaust in history lessons in the Gaza schools it runs. Naturally, Hamas refused. But what sort of human rights group asks the permission of terrorists to teach kids about the Holocaust? How do they sleep at night?

In the course of reporting this story, one news website wrote: “During the Holocaust, Nazi Germany murdered some six million Jews” and then – astonishingly – began it’s next sentence “However…”

I expect you’ve already guessed which website I’m referring to.

    Drat! I guessed wrong! Thought it was CiF.
    Actually, it makes one wonder exactly which history textbooks the BBC writers used in their youth.

    I don’t think that the Holocaust should even be mentioned in British schools unless it’s balanced with a mention of the Holodomor and the Soviet gulags where 50 million plus Christians died at the hands of Jews mostly. To continuously try and portray Jews as “victims” is an extremely biased view and is used to try and hide their genocidal behaviour in the Middle East

    It should be crystal clear, even to a BBC journalist, that it is not the “significance” of the Holocaust that is debated in parts of the Middle East. What a waste of a university education.
