  Judaism and Islam are not opposing religions. Many Arab countries, including the UAE, have small Jewish populations, some of which are growing.
  Don't mistake Arab animosity towards Israel as a country for animosity towards the Jewish people writ-large.

  According to the embassy, the content of the studies on Nazi Germany's genocidal murder of six million Jews during World War II will be developed in collaboration with Israel's official Holocaust Memorial Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, and will be included in the curriculum of primary and secondary school students.
  
  That’s progress, real progress. >
  
  Whoa. That’s actually a pretty big deal. A mostly Islamic middle eastern country working directly with Israel to teach about history that affects an opposing religion and that disproportionately affects Jews/Israel? Definitely progress.
