Well blind freddy would recognise that Ben-Peter Terpstra isn't a historian or understands histiography.

He is a "freelance writer" which is code for out of work hack.

Ho Hum-;

"The West gave the entire world both of these wars."

NO! multiculturalism and immigration gave the world both of these wars.

Germany was multicultural at the time of world war one and it was when the German Kaiser paid a visit to the Serbian sector as a gesture of goodwill and he was assasinated that World War one broke out. The German army was sent to the Serbian area of Germany immediately afterwards. The Serbs who had migrated originally from Russia to Germany called on their old Russian tribe for help against the German army and they got it. Russia came in on their side and war broke out between the Russians and the Germans. It had a snowball effect for reasons that are too long to go into here and other countries including England ended up becoming involved.

World War 2 was sparked by the same multiculturalism in Germany
about 41years later when the Jews who had failed to intergrate because of their religion and were numbering in the millions caused the Germans to fear that they were losing control of their country.
It wasnt anti-semitism it was ethnic cleansing of the Jewish tribe by the Germans who wanted them cleansed off German territory. The kids are being told that it was anti-semitism in the schools. Again, another example of how the schools get it wrong.

Oh obviously! Everyone can see that women are just so much more free under the world's muslim regimes than they are in the West.

What planet do the people who write these things in the school curriculum come from?. Lets start seeing things the way they really are people and not the way you would like them to be in your fantasy version of the world.

Plillip Adams was caught out by media watch for falsely claiming an interview with Helen Demadenko David or whatever she now calls herself. I consider myself a historian and I have just completed a webpage for the descendants of the much maligned Bentleys who owned the Eureka Hotel, burnt down before the Eureka Stockade in 1854.

The real story is an indictment on successive Victorian governments. The Bentley Hotel lands were stolen after the Stockade in 1859 by JB Humffray and the Bentley heirs are claiming compensation for the theft of their land by the Victorian government. Appeals are in progres to the Privy Council and with the Human Rights Commission.

James Bentley is much maligned in Australian history texts as the "murderer" of James Scobie, but he was only ever convicted of "manslaughter" after two trials, (double jeopardy abused) the second trial was initiated largely by Peter Lalor who was no democrat and he is usually praised in history texts.

It may have all been a setup to allow other sly grog sellers to trade! The Bentley family have provided me with many original documents that show Catherine Bentley actually owned the Eureka Hotel, not James and that she was never compensated for the taking of her lands. James was declared insane after the Eureka was destroyed and later killed himself. His ancestors continue a struggle for recognition of the true history and financial compensation.

I hate to disappoint you but the man assassinated in Serbia was the Austrian Archduke Ferdinand. He was a member of the Hapsburg royal family (monarchs of the Austro-Hungarian empire) and heir to the throne.

The Austro-Hungarians declared war on the Serbs. Counter mobilisations of various nations set off pre arranged collective defence pacts. The whole of Europe was at war in a very short space of time. Nothing to do with Multiculturalism.

Hitler sparked off WWII by invading neighbour Poland after previously taking the Sudetenland, Austria and Alsace Lorraine. Hitler main goal was ‘Lebensraum’ which is translated as living space. His goal was to unite the Germanic peoples in a single all powerful European superstate, with all the primary resources and land to support it.

Britain intervened, not to save the Jews, but because it had a defence pact with Poland and because the British were beginning to realise that Hitler wasn’t going to be stopped by appeasement or negotiation.

As for your pitiful attempt to pretend that Hitler was not an anti-semite, ARE YOU MAD?

Hitler didn’t want the Jews deported to other countries. He wanted a final solution to the so-called ‘Jewish Problem’. Just take a quick peak at Mein Kampf.

“ Mein Kampf makes clear Hitler's racist worldview, dividing up humans based on ancestry. Hitler states that German "Aryans" are at the top of the hierarchy and that Jews and Gypsies are consigned to the bottom of the order. Hitler goes on to say that the Jews were conspiring to keep this "master race" from rightfully ruling the world by diluting its racial and cultural purity and by convincing the Aryans to believe in equality rather than superiority and inferiority. He described the struggle for world domination as an ongoing racial, cultural and political battle between Aryans and non-Aryans”

Hitler wrote “that if only 12,000 – 15,000 Jews were gassed, then the sacrifice of millions of soldiers would not have been in vain”

So WWII, also had nothing to do with Multiculturalism.
