WND Ramps Up Nazi-Homeschool Link
Topic: WorldNetDaily

WorldNetDaily's Bob Unruh has stopped beating around the bush on the whole Nazi-homeschool thing. From the lead of Unruh's Dec. 23 WND article:

For parents who wish to teach their own children in the Judeo-Christian tradition, Germany today is not much better than it was under Nazi party control in the 1930s and 1940s, according to a man who lives there and is pleading for international help for his country.

The subject of Unruh's article is conveniently anonymous, purportedly "so that he is not targeted for speaking out, because he is pleading with those outside of Germany to launch a campaign to focus international attention on their actions." What was it that Unruh's boss, Joseph Farah, said about anonymous sources? Ah, yes: "usually quotes made up out of whole cloth to help make the story read better."

Also conveniently, Unruh offers no independent verification of the claims he's writing about.

We have two words for Mr. Unruh: Godwin's Law.

The whole point of that is that the Germans have OUTLAWED homeschooling and insisted on a lockstep "government school program" without exception - in much the same way that Hitler did.
