Opinions on this please:

General Eisenhower Warned Us In Advance!

It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.

He did this because he said in words to this effect:

‘Get it all on record now – get the films – get the witnesses – because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened’.

This week , the Uk debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it ‘offends’ the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in.
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the 6 million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests – who were murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on and humiliated while the German people looked the other way!

Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be ‘ a myth’ – it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets!

This e-mail is intended to reach 400 million people! Be a link in the memorial chain and help distribute this around the world.

How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Centre ‘NEVER HAPPENED’ – because it offends some Muslim in the US????

FREEDOM ISN’T FREE – SOMEONE HAD TO PAY FOR IT!!!

If you can read this – thank a teacher
If you can read this in English – thank a veteran.

The above info was an e-mail sent to me this am by a friend - and is exactly as I received it.

Have just googled in info - and discovered that some of what is said is questionable. However - it is still the case that Muslims are denying the existence of the Holocaust - see quote below.
"
In any case, though it is absolutely true that the phenomenon of Holocaust denial is still very much with us and especially rife in the Muslim world today (see the statements of Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad)" ...

Yes - but based on some facts. Just exagerrated! Still raised the question - what right do Muslims have to deny the Holocaust's existence - just more hate against the UK.

Just to add to what I put before - my original message is based on truth - see Analysis below. Just a matter of degree - how long will it be before this does actually happen. The case of the Christmas festival being changed - being a good example - that together with the Muslim view that 'the Holocaust was a myth' - does suggest it is likely to happen at some point in the future - if poeple don't start vocalising their objections now. Time will tell!!

"Analysis: Let me begin by quibbling with the claim that the U.K. has "banned" or "removed" the Holocaust from its school curriculum. This is false, albeit inspired by April 2007 news coverage of a government-funded study which found that - a few British schools and individual teachers had avoided presenting "emotive" subject matter such as the history of the Holocaust to their students for fear of giving offense to Muslims or otherwise generating controversy in the classroom".

It seems that as we relentlessly chip away at aspects of our Christian heritage we at the same time are building up the muslim footprint here in the UK

Agreed! I have no objections to Muslim people living in our country - and doing so without fear or intimidation. What I do object to - is their views and culture being given priority over ours - in our country. I would not expect Muslim countries to cancel one of their religious celebrations for fear of offending us - it is irrational and unreasonable. As far as I am concerned it is about control. We have to stand up and be counted.
