so this is the first I've heard about this, so I went and read more about it...this seems to me every bit as bad as the US covering up indian massacres (though they don't do that nearly as much anymore), or the germans trying to convense people that the hollacost never happened...it sickens me to see a national leader turn his back on history, pretending this sort of thing never happened is the best way to insure it happens again...
