How true is this statement - asking those in the UK?

This was in a recent Email forward:

> This week, 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..

Is this something that is really being debated?

    The email going around is a hoax. Check this out:

    There has been a debate about it,even Snopes basically admits that,though it was not decided that it shouldn't be taught.The fuss started when ONE School's History Dept did stop teaching about it,precisely because of Muslims reaction to the subject.Another school skipped teaching about the crusades,because it conflicted with what muslims were taught in their mosques on the subject.

    So,No UK Schools are not avoiding the subject,YET. But there is a precedent for the belief that they were,or might avoid the subject.

    confident that is genuine. Supermarkets & shops have a 'seem 25' coverage which ability if the cashier thinks which you do no longer seem 25, then they could desire to identity you. It was 21 yet became raised, i assume this became through fact 21 is extremely a confusing age to gauge merely via staring at somebody (some human beings could seem 21 whilst they are truthfully 17 & some 22 3 hundred and sixty 5 days olds could seem youthful). while you're youthful i think of that is much less complicated just to hold identity consistently, merely incase.

    The Holocaust is a part of History whatever the Muslims say. This is England - we should not be dictated to by a religion that is not part of our tradition. What next? replace our law with Sharia?

    I have never heard of this and it couldn't happen. With all the evidence available you would have to be looking to rewrite the whole of history in order to delete it. Incidentally, I rather think that Muslims were classified as "Non-Aryan" under the Nazi rules and would thus have been eligible for the same fate as the Jews.

    No this seems to be made up,no such debate is taking place but we are tippy toeing around when dealing with muslims

    not really its the first i have heard. i follow the news daily especially about our government. im muslim and i dont recall muslims claiming the holocaust never happened. or the fact that we get offended!!

    i dont know if its true but they shouldnt remove it as its part of our history and it will offend those that fighted to stop it from happening also it would offends the jewish community because thats who it happened to and i think if i was in there shoes i wouldnt want people to forget what was inflicted to them

  • 'Israel' (ICC) has an extermination policy targetting Palestinians, they may have been aware of Albanian Christians being death marched in the last century but I guess they shrug it off, if they can't teach maybe it's balance (as Tim Hunt is famed for saying).

    I suspect it's yet more garbage from the anti Muslim brigade.
