history of Halocaust?

Is anyone else upset that the British want to take the halocaust history out of their teaching curriculum. I think this is an outrage.

    As long as no one denies that it occured. It, as well as many other historical "halocausts" should still be aknowledged but there's a time for it to go to the "back pages" ,too. The present has enough pain and suffering without adding the past. I have no wish to be unfeeling but ....It's over and done with. Spilt Milk. Get on with life , as it is.

    Sad if true but looking at many history books used in US schools it appears that anything positive about the US is being removed, terminology and opinions are primarily that of the anti-American left (not all liberals are anti-American) but there is that faction and the primary teaching is based on political correct topics and ideas instead of actual history. When there is more coverage of the Niagara Falls Women's Suffrage meeting the there is of the American Revolution or American Civil War it makes you wonder what is going on and referring to the Vietnam Conflict as the American War of Aggression against North Vietnam (that is a header in my daughters history book and also a direct line description used by the communist to describe the war). So it is not England alone this is happening in-it appears that those that can't get power through the vote are going to indoctrinate the children to be there next generation of voters then they can win in a few election cycles.

    As the World War Two vets pass into history, the ultra liberals and certain groups would like the murder of 6 million Jews to go away. Problem is, it wasn't only Jews. Pol's, Christians and many other groups were also slaughtered by the Third Reich and is a part of what our troops found as they liberated Europe.

    We the people need to keep the pressure on our elected officials and tell them, " history should not be rewritten just to be politically correct."

    Their is no such plan the history of WW2 as taught in British Schools contains the relevant data,

    This "question" is being placed on the net as misinformation posted by fascists of the B.N.P.

    Maybe they're concerned that over time, people see so many similarities between what the Brits have done (for more than three centuries now) and what the Nazis did. Only the Brits won the War and they wrote the history.
