I challenge you, Skunk, to go dig up one -- just one -- shining gem or nugget of info indicating that Jews have a tendancy to rewrite historical facts [edit: well, let's do ignore the creative histories of the likes of SKG and other big-name Hollywood jews, please

]. I think you'd have to go back to current historians' ruminations as to what happened during biblical times (about the time when the church, library, and head of government were all located in one centralized managed area) to find any evidence of the sort. I've read several articles about Muslim scholars working to rewrite historical facts, but have yet to notice one about Jewish scholars doing the same. It's a cultural trait one group has that the other does not.

So the pot simply ain't black. Maybe it's a case of a copper pot calling a kettle black?
