Look under Laws against denial of Holocaust. It is illiegal in Germany to deny the Holocaust. Why would German schools go into detail over Holocaust, American schools dont go into deep detail over the massacures of Indian tribes, forcing them to move hundreds of miles from their homelands. Besides countries usually do not push into their youth's minds how they have erred in the past, otherwise the population would drop to 0.
