I'm sure that the libs here in the US are scratching their heads about now and wondering why they didn't think of this first. Holocaust denial will be next on their checklist.

	Schools are dropping the Holocaust from history lessons to avoid offending 
	Muslim pupils, a Government backed study has revealed. It found some 
	teachers are reluctant to cover the atrocity for fear of upsetting students 
	whose beliefs include Holocaust denial. There is also resistance to tackling 
	the 11th century Crusades - where Christians fought Muslim armies for 
	control of Jerusalem - because lessons often contradict what is taught in 
	local mosques. The findings have prompted claims that some schools are using 
	history 'as a vehicle for promoting political correctness'. The study, 
	funded by the Department for Education and Skills, looked into 'emotive and 
	controversial' history teaching in primary and secondary schools. It found 
	some teachers are dropping courses covering the Holocaust at the earliest 
	opportunity over fears Muslim pupils might express anti-Semitic and 
	anti-Israel reactions in class.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7D939781-796E-4A1C-B615-0D9536ED52B7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
