Poll: 40% of Israeli Arabs believe Holocaust never happened

You can think the moon is made of cheese in the privacy of your own home, what is disputed, and vigorously, are those who seek to marginalize and demonize using holocaust denial as the basis of their argument. Anti semetism is alive and well.

It is! I saw it on Wallace and Gromit.

The people who think the Holocaust never happened are probably the same people who think the Earth is flat and it is the centre of the Universe, oh and Man never landed on the Moon. Ignorance.

With the exception of their unscientific belief in the innate genetic superiority of the 'Aryan' race, Nazis were quite scientific in their outlook. They're not ignorant, just dangerous.

I think Danno's trying to put himself across as open-minded and is making the assumption that people (who have yet to be identified) who question the numbers must have some reasonable factual basis for doing so.

That's what happens when a country decides to rely on religious opinion as to what is and isn't good science.

It was just amazing how well quoted that guy was (across national TV news). And there was absolutely nothing to his story - other than that he believed that "something bad" would happen.

It's terrible and probably has at least as much to do with the problems in public schooling as anything else, my inflammatory comment not withstanding

I'll see if I can find it on google. It was pretty funny.

It was very funny (but I wouldn't want that guy teaching my kids).

Seriously:

If I walk out of the office - I will either get hit by a bus or not hit by a bus. Therefore my chances of being hit by a bus are 50/50!

I saw the hadron peice, absolutely no credibility. I thought it was on the daily show and they had John Oliver interview the hadron physicist and the nutty professor (not eddie murphy).
