Could use a few more Davids in these times.

Here’s a fun fact. The Holocaust Education Trust and the government website boasts that the only historical topic that is compulsory (by law) to be taught in schools in England is the Holocaust.

English schoolchildren don’t have to learn anything about English history (which could be somewhat disturbing if the truth were told!).

In their words “ Within higher education there is a rich a vibrant research culture around Holocaust studies. There are a number of highly respected scholars working in UK universities, and students can further their learning about the Holocaust through various courses. For postgraduates there are degrees directly focused on the Holocaust, while a growing number of research students are studying the subject”.

Must make for an interesting job interview. “Can you help our business to grow?” “No. But I do know how to extinguish it “…

That's how you know the *real* bad guys were English, regardless of all the bad things Germans, Zionists, Russians and Americans did.

They do like to employ diversionary tactics. Let’s not bother telling our kids about the well documented atrocities committed against Jews in medieval England. Obviously that doesn’t count as real history. For a bunch obsessed with accusing others of holocaust denial it’s somewhat ironic that they are the quintessential colonial genocide deniers. It’s not just not cricket old chap!

Thank you for bringing a great human being to the attention of those who haven't had the opportunity to read his work. David has a special place in my heart, for opening my eyes not just about the real story of WWII, Churchill, and Hitler, but doing that, it allowed me to realize that if they've lied about this subject, what else are they lying about? I question everything thing now, and have been for close to 30 years. Here are a couple of wonderful reads/listen works from the Unz Review.

Because of David's work, I have become a big proponent of revising our histories. Not a denier but revisionist. I believe we are in the mess that we're in is because of histories we've been taught, and not the real history. If we were taught the real history of Hitler, and the start of WWII that the conflict in Ukraine could've been avoided?

Maybe not, but at least the lessons would have been learned and chances of avoidance would've been greater.

Honestly in a way I look at the Unz Review as. The original Substack.
