US: Saudi-funded text books say "Muslims discovered America"



Via.

did you know that Muslims discovered America? Or that Jerusalem is an Arab city? That's just some of the "history" that students in America's K-12 classrooms have been taught in recent years--with the help of taxpayer money.
A new report by the non-profit Institute for Jewish and Community Research finds that American high school and elementary textbooks contain countless inaccuracies about Christianity, Judaism, Israel and the Middle East.
The Institute examined 28 of the most widely-used history, geography and social studies textbooks in America. It found at least 500 errors.
One book ignored the Jewish roots of Christianity, saying the faith was founded by a "young Palestinian" named Jesus.
Another stated as fact that the Koran was revealed to Mohammed from God.
Yet another said ancient Jewish civilization contributed "very little" to to the arts and sciences.
Muslims discovered America, my ass. Cristopher Columbus with Castillan Catholic Queen Isabella's money discovered it. No Muslims on board, sorry, King Abdullah. Jesus was, not "a young Palestinian", but a Jew who descended from King David. Etc. etc.

What a bunch of illiterates. Modifying history to please their own political plans... and students "learning" history from King Abdullah's hot dreams, instead of using serious History books. By the way, I would like to know how are Spanish-Muslim history books written.

A lie repeated a thousand times becomes true. Wasn't something like that what Goebbels said?
