Holocaust Denial: Where The Problem Lies

"NOP also found a tendency for British Muslims to believe some, well, strange things. 45% thought that 9/11 was a conspiracy between the USA and Israel. 36% thought that Princess Diana was murdered to stop her marrying a Muslim. More seriously, only 29% thought that the holocaust occured, 2% denied it happened entirely, 17% think it was exaggerated (which is the stance proposed by most of today’s holocaust deniers), 24% said they had “no opinion” and 23% didn’t know what the holocaust was." [ Yes, that's right: ONLY 29% were certain that the holocaust occurred. THAT WOULD BE 19% THAT BELIEVED IT DIDN'T AND SOME 47% SUFFERING FROM EDUCATIONAL FAILURE AT BARE MINIMUM. Now there's a community that I would flee like a banshee if I only had a single neuron in my head. And note the 45% who believe that 9/11 was a BusHitler conspiracy. It turns out that there was recent poll in the U.S. that said only slightly fewer here believed it: 36%. And as you might expect, the breakdown on this was that 51% of Dems and -- almost as frightening in its own way -- 20% of elephants did! Think about that a little more: British Muslims are wacko about 9/11 and our Dems have an honest contest in progress to out-do them! Our political parties really are big tents filled with scary folks. Oh... And our vaunted independents came down at 33% so that's no refuge either... So forget that last "comforting" post about holocause denial and sweet dreams... -ed. ]
