Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

its not just the sanitization, its the role reversal and the over and over again nature.

In order to be politically correct, they have to find a muslim who was a semi world travler to illustrate the idea of traveling around, they spend far more book time on the near east than the far east or europe in the same time period
and the children are just plain sick of Islam and Africa. Europeans conquer, Islam brings civilization. Is midevil Florence more important than kings of congo in 1657 or how many people were enslaved by the moslem invasion of India?

Did you know that there were 75? great cultures and kingdoms in africa between 1400 and 1800 and all of them were destroyed by western colonialists who did something to some one to make a neighboring chieftain invade the kingdom? No responsibility at all for the neighboring cheiftain who did all the killing.
