Vladimir Pozner about fakes
I hope that those who read this post will respond no less decisively than when they read slander
About two days ago I received an appeal. It was written in it that any reminder of the Holocaust was seized from all school textbooks of Great Britain, since this mention offends Muslims who do not believe in the existence of the Holocaust. The appeal ends with a call to everyone to send it to his acquaintances to be at least 40 million people to get acquainted with him.
Out of journalistic habit, I decided to check this “information” and called the British Embassy Department in Moscow. When they answered, I read out the appeal and asked if it was true that it claims. They answered me: this is nonsense. I thanked, but said that this is not enough for me, I would like to get an official refutation. I was asked to send them a request in writing, which I did. After an hour and a half, I received an official refutation from the representative of the government of the United Kingdom. This is the appeal: “Any Suggationness that the uke is removing references to the Holocaust from School Textbooks is Absolute Nonsense”. Nonsense " - my translation).
I do not know who in this way it is necessary to arouse hatred and distrust of one of the most democratic countries in the world, but it is obvious that someone needs it. I hope that those who read this post will respond no less decisively than when they read and sent slander - of course, not suspecting that this is slander. And I would like to advise everyone and everyone more strictly treated with similar sensational "news". In conclusion, I would like to cite the words of the Foreign Minister Boris Johnson, who was said by him just the other day: “As a government We are comitted to ensurn that society learns of the holocaust so bigotry and prejudice are Given No Place to Take Root ”. I think you can translate yourself.
