emain home, and appropriate action would follow an investigation.
Student Katie Piranio told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Sublette said
during a Nov. 25 class that history books were inaccurate and Nazis in
World War II lacked the technology to kill millions of Jews. Sublette did
not immediately return a message left by The Associated Press seeking
comment. The Review-Journal said she did not answer when a reporter
reached her Thursday and asked if she had denied the Holocaust
happened.
Sublette said she was not in a position to respond and would have to talk
to her principal. Sublette is a full-time gym teacher. The district says she
was teaching a 30-minute weekly class designed to prepare students for life
after high school.

not have the technology to kill so many people. Students say the
comments have contributed to a rise in anti-Semitic jokes and threats
against Jewish students. School District police are investigating a
threatening text message. The school is considering ways to address the
controversy, including inviting speakers and organizing special assemblies
on Holocaust education, officials said.
There are now blatantly open and direct social programs with a Holocaust
message pushed into Australia’s communities, especially into farming
communities because rural Australia is having a difficult time with natural
disasters such as floods, drought and bush fires. All too often the
accompanying economic and financial tragedies are accompanied by a lost
