Taking a History class in the UK is the most depressing thing ever.
Up to year 9 all I learned about was The Blitz, The Holocaust, and the horrible details about how gas peeled people's faces off and made them vomit their own lungs up. For some reason I ended up taking a History GCSE, and it's even more depressing! We started off with World War One- trench foot, bodies being eaten by rats, starvation. Then we moved on to The Rise of Hitler- need I say more? THEN we had to learn about Vietnam, and how napalm burns young children. THEN of course, we move on to the USSR 1945-1990. It is the most depressing country on earth.
In short, I'm glad something has been removed from this depress-o-rama, but this seems to have been taken out for all the wrong reasons. I think after what muslims did to the London Transportation System we shouldn't really bother about pissing them off anymore.
