Ditch Holocaust day, advisers urge Blair

'Advisers appointed by Tony Blair after the London bombings are proposing to scrap the Jewish Holocaust Memorial Day because it is regarded as offensive to Muslims. They want to replace it with a Genocide Day that would recognise the mass murder of Muslims in Palestine, Chechnya and Bosnia as well as people of other faiths.'

And

Louise Ellman, Labour MP for Liverpool Riverside and a Holocaust Memorial trustee, said: “These Muslim groups should stop trying to evade the enormity of the Holocaust.”

Well said Mrs Ellman. The fact that many Muslims don't give a rats ass about the holocaust or even deny it's existance should not give anyone the right to abolish the memorial for the worst genocide in existence. It is yet another facet of the 'I'm a victim' mentality that seems to prevail these days in the Muslim communitry. I am so damned angry. Where will this stop?

Though if they want to play that game, how about mourning the massacre of about 1 million Armenians?
