Those who do not learn from the past...

In a rather predictable move, some teachers and schools in the UK are refusing to teach certain inconvenient historical truths--namely the Holocaust and the Crusades--in an effort to appease the Muslim community, who are taught in their mosques ideas contrary to popular historical interpretation.

Well blow me down. If this type of behavior wasn't becoming commonplace in Europe, I'd be more aghast. The essence of politically correct behavior has always been to sacrifice truth at the twin altars of tolerance and multiculturalism, which is why it is ultimately doomed to fail. The question is will it fail because good people wake up and recognize it for the idiocy that it is or will it take the future Imam of England to decree it so?
