I know I may get a bit of flak for linking to this op/ed piece by Michelle Malkin, but I think she's right. Has political correctness and the need to not offend people gotten so out of control that all sense of reality is being dispensed with, causing American institutions to hold mock terrorism drills using radical Christians instead of Islamic terrorists?
Did you know that some British schools are dropping the Holocaust from their cirriculum to avoid offending Muslims? I didn't until today.
Why should the truth be offensive to anyone?

1) So stupid. Why do they even have to give a rationale to the "terrorists" in the drills? Why not just set up a scenario that gives the basis without bringing ideologies into it?
2) I would like to see her references and resources for saying that British schools have dropped teaching about the Holocaust to avoid offending Muslims. It doesn't even make sense!
3) My word verification for this comment is iraqi. odd.
1) You bring up a good point. I guess it should be sufficient to call them "terrorists" and leave it at that.
2) References would be helpful. I can't imagine all Muslims being nutjobs like Presdient What's-his-name in Iran.
3) It's a conspiracy!
