Interesting that Google could not come up with a definition of Holocaust but could come up with a Wikipedia definition for Naqba – the displacement of some Arabs when Israel was established – because Wikipedia does have an entry for “The Holocaust”. Why could Google find one definition but not the other?

There is a reason why many of us don’t trust Google Search – although I will admit to using Google Scholar. As for trusting Wikipedia? Well, learning that it is better than Google is faint praise indeed!

The real issues seem to be:
a) increasing population longevity; and
b) poorly controlled Medicare costs

Just for destroying history - or even attempting to do so - they should be sentenced to a LONG period in jail. Such misbehaving people have no place in society. I have real reasons that I would want “regime change” but none of them include demolishing our past, in whatever form it is shown. At some point it was important; tearing it down now is simply intellectually wrong.
