The number of schools in the Middle East that ignore or deny the Holocaust is horrible, but many American and European public schools teach little to nothing about it as well. And people should be taught about the 55 million killed in WWII, 40 million at the hands of the Nazis. 5 Million Russian POWS, 2 million killed in Prisons, 22 million Russians killed in the war. 400,000 Americans were killed. 19 Million Chinese killed. 4 Million Indonesians killed. 800,000 French killed. These are things people should learn in school. (Above: Russian POWs, all killed).
Comments on the matter from Facebook
- Aj Sims we barely teach about the genocide within our own country so while it is horrible it's happening here as well
Sam Metsfan very very true. and we teach very little about many other genocides, even modern ones like Bosnia and Rwanda.
