The fact is that the Germans were evil and murdering lots of Jews and planning on deporting some to get concessions from the British. Husseini convinced the Germans not to deport any at all. Those are history facts. To say otherwise is wrong.

This was a boring and pointless article.

pulation of teaching of history. Much worse& damaging than any "mistake" our excellent PM may have committed. You see, it;'s the "graying" of everything, the relativism of everything, the "victim may be the criminal"-theories. The false assumption that there exist some form of ideal human being, able to extract itself from its own history & People. Yes, the Homo Academicus...maybe. This Narcissus is (as they all do) thrilled, enchanted and mesmerized by his own reflection in the deep Pool of Progressive Thoughts, somewhere over there, in ....Narnia. BTW: no, we're no oppressing another People and there'll be no Final Two State Solution, since THAT is the spirit of your article!

For themselves, to study exceedingly about problems of other nations, as to my understanding the author moralizes. If he/she implies also to the indifference of many Israeli Jews to the suffering of the Palestinians, he/she should lament too about the conditions of criminals in jails, whose freedom is sharply restricted.

the homo academicus has no connection to the real world.
