ELI WIESEL'S ATTACKER CONVICTED

In February of 2007, just after making a speech in San Francisco, Holocaust survivor and internationally-acclaimed author Eli Wiesel stepped onto an elevator at his hotel to return to his room.

Seemingly out of nowhere a man stepped forth who began to shout obscenities at Wiesel, accusing him of helping perpetrate 'the lie of the Holocaust.'

Wiesel, who was 78 at the time of the attack, was left traumatized by the incident.

The man who was arrested and charged with the attack received a guilty verdict today in a San Francisco courtroom. His sentencing will take place later in the summer.

At the trial Wiesel testified that he thought he was being kidnapped by his attacker.

Holocaust No Longer Taught in U.K. Schools

Washington, DC (TLS). Are you prepared for yet another story that will get your blood boiling? Look no further than Great Britain, where school teachers are deciding not to teach about the Holocaust for the fear of 'upsetting' Muslims.

For decades the Holocaust was considered one of those absolutes in education--an incident in history that MUST be taught so as to provide a constant reminder that even the most civil of societies can turn barbaric when collectivism becomes the norm, particularly when that collectivist society has decided that certain groups of human beings are deemed to be lacking in any inherent value.

No wonder Jews are increasingly afraid to live in Europe.

But this is not all. These particular teachers in England have also decided not to teach about the Crusades. The reason? They have a real fear that teaching about the circumstances leading up to the Crusades (Muslim barbarism) will incite Muslim students to violence.

My friends, this is what political correctness is doing to education and to entire societies. It is nothing less than an outrage.
