And that is a travesty and a huge injustice to all the people who either lost their lives or loved ones in all the situations that you mentioned! I WILL NEVER FORGET!!My wife told me this morning that the teachers are not allowed to discuss the events of 9/11 in the classrooms, because it offends the Muslim children. I can only guess that teaching about the Civil War will offend the Southerners, teaching about the 1st and 2nd World War will offend those of German and Japanese heritage, etc., and the list goes on. History class as we, the elder generation know it, has been sanitized, sterilized, and re-written to the point that it is no longer history, but a fictional accounting of the past.
Last evening, on Jeopardy, the final question of the show, "what was the earliest recorded autopsy report in history found to have 23 puncture wounds, however, only one was fatal?" I knew the answer right away, however, not one of the three contestants even had a remote idea, and all 3 didn't even make an educated guess. I knew the answer as soon as the question was asked. History hasn't been taught correctly for over 40 years!
How in the hell would teaching kids the truth offend Muslims most dont know if their afoot or horseback screw them if they complain send them back to the middle east, this country has got soooo soft on $hit just like thatMy wife told me this morning that the teachers are not allowed to discuss the events of 9/11 in the classrooms, because it offends the Muslim children.

I think i have surpassed the limitations for moving to the US. We were going to do this years & years ago and follow when the wife's sister moved over to CA.To all the folks who lost their lives in vain that day...
To out-of-control political correctness..
Sooooo, when you gonna move here Gav??
BOOM, got ya.We need to have a We Remember ceremony where we extoll American virtues, celebrate the American culture, our religious heritage, where we have very powerful messages delivered by on fire Assembly of God and Southern Baptist evangelical figures, prayers for all of us from mainline decent Catholic clergy as well, and we have a mid day barbecue of steak, burgers and dogs, watermelon, potato salad, corn on the cob, ice cream, your choice of beverage, then the day's entertainment would offer American sports, i.e. baseball, Nascar, NHRA drag racing, featuring the U.S.Nationals SS/AH class run offs, then fireworks stands would open up, selling small cardboard mosques, domes, spires and all, with a fuse emanating from the top. After all this eating and sports, a few We Remember motivational speeches, and as the evening approaches, families would set their mosque on the sidewalk out from of their house, and light the fuse. Oh, yes, each mosque would contain an M-80 . This would remind the world of two things- 1. How to handle all enemies, both foreign and domestic, and 2. We remember and won't forget. Take that, liberals!!!
P.S. on above- For your viewing enjoyment, look up a YouTube video titled Taliban's Last Campfire. Excellent viewing!!
This is just so wrong and no wonder there is no respect today / understanding on what the actual truth is. Now imagine if this was the other round and US and or NZ students were in an Islamic State school, do you think they would stop teaching something cause it might "upset" the Western students! Like hell they would.My wife told me this morning that the teachers are not allowed to discuss the events of 9/11 in the classrooms, because it offends the Muslim children.
