British schools don't want to offend Muslims
British schools drop Holocaust from history lessons so as not to offend Muslims.

What a bunch of BS!

I don't see any reference to them denying it happened.

So? Not all muslims deny the holocast and as for those that do... some non-muslims also deny it.

The problem is they are worried that teaching it would "offend".
Remember how popular Iran's Ahmadinejad denial was with many Muslims... That is the root of that movement in Britain.

All one can do is a facepalm...
Islam and Judaism share a common origin in Abraham, and as such, both religions share many of the same values and histories. There will always be deniers in any culture or religion...
However, what makes people join the KKK, or the aryan brotherhood, or the nazi's.
What a crock of crap indeed.

What is going on avb3? You losing confidence in one global warming hoax and looking for attention with another?

Did you read the actual report referenced?
On page 8
"For example, a history department in a northern city recently avoided selecting the Holocaust as a topic for GCSE course work for fear of confronting anti-Semitic sentiment and Holocaust denial among some Muslim pupils. "
That is a direct quote, not something out of a news article.

You keep falling for the same old hoax that keeps getting recirculated. Just like that shark on a winch that was a mako caught in Nova Scotia but gets rebranded over and over.
Your OP was from 2012.
Quote whatever site you want. Fact is your post is fully refuted and deemed a hoax.
People try to reinvigorate hoaxes all the time. Did not figure you the type to propagate it. Then try and push it.
Read the hoax link.

Hahaha. You feeling ok. You are the most gullible Internet junkie I know now. 
You quoting this as proof against the hoax proof is laughable.

Therefore you post Is false.

I take that as an apology for you dissing it and me.
If you've read the report, we can discuss this further. Go to the source... I did.

I changed my post on the factual letter seconds after hitting send. The OP is false. The holocaust is still part of the educational system and that has not changed.

Sorry.  . 1 out of 4500 schools doing something they should not is hardly a statistical advantage to getting you out of your hole. Likely that one school just had a bad day due to stresses over global warming.

Fair enough. The point is it should not happen in ANY school.

You and I both agree. The one school was wrong and it should not of happened. The fact it find not happen in the other 4499 schools is a testimony to common sense being strong in the UK.
