TX Teachers' comments about Holocaust OUT-OF-CONTEXT...

The NEWSMAX crawler/tag says: "TX SCHOOL TEACHERS TOLD TO BALANCE HOLOCAUST BOOKS WITH "OPPOSING" PERSPECTIVES"

CONTEXT MATTERS!!

WHEN one hears the FULL CONTEXT of the discussion, one understands that this Teacher is really one of the decent ones. She WAS NOT defending the Holocaust nor saying one should - for example - "DEFEND" (legitimize) the NAZI "perspective" and offer "viewpoint(s)" that may even go so far as the Mullahs in Iran that even try to DENY the Holocaust... BUT, instead, the Teacher indeed saying that sadly there are indeed some ANTI-SEMITES who she directly says "the topic has come up" in conversations. This isn't really about THE HOLOCAUST, but leftists that want the new TX LAW about DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES (as opposed to the LIBERAL LEFT REWRITING OF HISTORY ANTIAMERICAN PERSPECTIVES being taught in Schools MUST BE COUNTERED) IN SCHOOLS LAW over-turned and therefore use this (mostly) STRAWMAN (certainly not widespread) argument!

LET ME TAKE THIS ONE STEP FURTHER... It is GOOD that this controversy has arisen, and we NEED HONEST DISCUSSION. Most of us agree that HISTORY is not being taught (at least, honest History, not Howard Zinn Lefyloon rewrite propaganda) in Schools AND THE WHOLE STORY needs be taught.

In this case: THE PROTOCOLS OF ZION and the whole ANTI-SEMITE manure propaganda IS IMPORTANT TO SHOW STUDENTS as the BASIS and lead-in to TEACHING THE HORRORS OF THE HOLOCAUST and that it COULD HAPPEN again to the JEWS or ANOTHER GROUP OF PEOPLE AS SCAPEGOATS for "supposed ill's of modern day!" As the saying goes: Those who do NOT know the past, are doomed to repeat it. Well, maybe not absolutely doomed to repeat it, but TOO IGNORANT to be able to Learn from the past, if they are not taught it, to be FOOLED INTO ALLOWING IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN! It didn't START with the BoxCars and Concentration Camps, the whole History that led to those MUST BE TAUGHT so as to never be repeated.

The LEFT, of course, uses this PATHETIC EXTREME EXAMPLE, distorts it, to try and undo a Law they do not like. A Law that protects and insists our Children need and must have/get a WELL ROUNDED EDUCATION!

Likewise in MICHIGAN, Justice Warren and State Senator Pat Colbeck worked tirelessly to get PATRIOT WEEK legislation passed, as part of needed EDUCATION REFORMS to insist, put into Law, that our Schools have at least ONE WEEK of Education on our Founders, The Constitution, etc.... IN PROPER CONTEXT, NOT the warped Howard Zinn leftist twisting of our History and our Founding Documents. The Left, of course, HATES IT. They Fight every step of the way ANY TEACHING OF HISTORY AS IT WAS, rather than as they prefer to TWIST IT!
