The US-backed regime in South Korea is outraged at high-school textbooks that tell the truth about the 63-year US occupation. The Ministry of Education demands that offending passages be censored because they “undermine the legitimacy of the South Korean government…. A textbook of modern history should be written in a way that does not hurt our national pride.” The US Ministry of Education has the exact same policy, of course, for its far dumber high-school history books, but is less honest about it.
