Media, schools, and governments are not only shaping our point of view but actually distorting values, history and reality to a large degree.
Today's headlines present the Ukraine revolt as "democracy-minded" and their leadership as "freedom fighters".
The actual reality is that the movement was hijacked a while ago by ultra-right and Neo-Nazi groups. But they are basking in the "freedom fighters" brand and being showered with praise and promises of financial aid by the West.
Today's headlines also abstained for as long as possible from mentioning that the attackers who knifed a number of innocent people in China were Muslim terrorists. When they did, it was only by implying that they were resisting China's oppression. Well, everybody knows about China, so it's not hard to paint every resister as a "freedom fighter".

The following column by writer Giulio Meotti describes how this late-20th and 21st century narrative is reaching a new level of cynical and malevolent historical falsification.
What we need to add to Mr Meotti's column is that the Arabs from Palestine were not only collaborators with the Nazi regime, but their leader, the Mufti of Jerusalem, played a leading role in the design and implementation of the Final Solution - the Nazi extermination of Jews.
The Mufti lived in Berlin, met with Hitler, and worked closely with top Nazis in the plan that aimed at the extermination of all world Jews, starting with those in Europe, and following with those living in the Middle East.
The Mufti of Jerusalem was so deeply involved in Nazi Germany that he also created an SS division of Muslim soldiers recruited from Eastern Europe and elsewhere, and that was so brutal and sadistic in their killings of civilians that even German SS were shocked.
The Mufti should have been tried at Nuremberg, but for some reason Allies let him escape to the Middle East where he would make himself useful by training a new generation of Arab Nazis. Two of his pupils were Yassir Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas - past and present leaders of the Palestinians.
Palestinians revere Hitler to this day, fly Nazi flags, the Hamas army in Gaza makes the Nazi salute at military parades, and the one thing that all Palestinian factions share is Hitler's dream of the destruction of the Jews.

In France, Muslims are Freedom Fighters, Jews are Nazis
This is how history is skewed and the present is falsified.
By Giulio Meotti
In 1943, the French-Nazi forces arrested a French Resistance group called the “Manouchian Group”. Half of its members were Jewish and they were executed on Feb. 21, 1944. Seventy years ago.
Benoît Rayski, a French historian, recently went to speak to students at a vocational high school in Mantes-la-Jolie (north-central France) about that famous anti-Nazi group.
Before the historian entered the class, the school’s officials asked him to refrain from mentioning that they were Jewish. It would be preferable if they were described as “immigrants” and “foreigners”.
Why such self censorship? Because French officials don’t want Muslim students in France to know that Jews died fighting the Nazis.
They prefer that they think those Resistance fighters were immigrants, just like the Muslims are.
“You know, with Palestine and all that ... “, said the teacher. So in France, Jewish heroes who were called “terrorists” by the Nazis cannot be mentioned today, while the Islamic terrorists who are fighting the Israeli heirs of those eleven Jews are labelled resistance fighters.
The United Nations Special Rapporteur on the “Palestinian territories”, the self-hating Jew Richard Falk, compared Hamas terrorists to French resistance fighters during World War II:
“Imagine the situation being reversed as it was during the Nazi occupation of France or the Netherlands during World War II”, Falk said. “Then Resistance fighters were uniformly perceived in the liberal West as unconditional heroes, and no critical attention was given as to whether the tactics used unduly imperiled innocent civilian lives. Those who lost their lives in such a resistance were honored as martyrs.
Mashaal and other Hamas leaders have made similar arguments on several occasions, in effect asking what are Palestinians supposed to do in the exercise of resistance given their circumstances, which have persisted for so long, given the failures of traditional diplomacy and the UN to secure their rights under international law”.

Back in the early 1980s, French president Francois Mitterrand was accusing Israel of using Nazi methods.
And let us not forget to mention two famous French personalities: Stephane Hessel, a member of the French Resistance, who presented Gaza as the epicenter of global injustice and Hamas as a pacifist charity, while Jacques Vergès, who was one of France’s best known lawyers and a former French resistance fighter, defended Palestinian terrorists.
A few months ago, the famous, government-subsidized Jeu de Paume contemporary art museum in Paris featured 68 photos of Palestinian suicide bombers. And in the museum’s accompanying brochure, the curators of the shameful event compared the Palestinian Arab terrorists with the French resistance which fought the Nazis.
In 1969, a newspaper of World War II French veterans of the resistance movement condemned Arab terrorist activities which it charged were “Nazi-Inspired”.
“La Voix Internationale De La Resistance” published the text of a statement adopted by the Action Committee of the Resistance, a body representing four French resistance groups, and condemning “the Nazi inspiration of the Arab extremists". The group challenged the likening of the “terrorist and racist action of the Palestinian commandos to the French resistance”.

But since then, lies have become mainstream. This is how it goes in today's anti-Semitic France: the Palestinian terrorists who slit the throats of the Fogel children are hailed as “resistance fighters” and “liberators”, while the Jews are demonized as “occupiers” and “Nazis”.

THE NAZI ORIGIN OF THE PALESTINIAN MOVEMENT
Haj Amin Al-Husseini - The Mufti of Jerusalem during the 1940s - in conference with Adolf Hitler discussing the best and most efficient way to exterminate all Jews. Although the Mufti was an active leader in the Nazi extermination of the Jews, he was never tried for his crimes.
73% of Palestinians agree with the Muslim Hadith
calling for the murder of all Jews
“Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.” — Sahih Muslim 6985

As you realize, this Muslim hatred against Jews dates from the very birth of Islam - way before there was a "Palestinian-Israeli conflict". It's in the very basis of Islam. This genocidal dictate may not have been always followed, but Jews in Muslim lands have always been at the mercy of their rulers.
