Two major ideas should be mentioned in this regard. The conflicts have been political rather than religious; in more particular terms, the struggle focuses on the issue of possessing the land rather than supremacy of religion. Second, there is confusion among Arabs between the concepts of “Israeli” and “Jew;” thus mixing the political with the religious. The bottom line is that this conflict is dominant so much so that it affects all disciplines and institutions.  \nOne of the major fields which has been influenced by such political considerations is the educational one. In this regard, although there have been humble attempts to include the topic in the curriculum, teaching the Holocaust has almost been banned, though sometimes unconsciously, in all Arab countries, viewing it as “fairytale serving Zionist propaganda”(Freidman) . Like most Arab counterparts, the Jordanian educational system has been inflicted with the banking model of education. This model, proposed by the Brazilian Pedagogue, Paulo Freire, highlights the existence of a single authority that others have to follow; rejecting any  \nform of democracy or freedom of thinking. This autocratic pedagogical ideology has banned teaching the Holocaust in the country. On the other hand, critical pedagogy as model of education, goes in stark contrast with the despotic banking system. The critical pedagogy model is based on democracy, emancipation, empowerment of students as well as freedom of thinking. In line with this liberal model, the educational arena should not be influenced by any political or religious agenda resulting in preventing any mentioning of the Holocaust in teaching (Freire) .  \nResearch Objective  \nThis paper intends to address the possibility of introducing the Holocaust for undergraduate students in my home country; Jordan. The focal concern will be on two primary challenges in the process of teaching the holocaust. First, how to convince students and/or the pedagogical authority of the necessity and significance of addressing the topic; second, how to maintain a neutral critical analysis of the topic in the midst of the tremendous antagonistic stand towards the Jews. Evidently, attempting this challenging project is not an easy task. Taking the aforementioned political situation in the country, it becomes a great adventure.  \nPublished by Australian International Academic Centre PTY.LTD.  \nCopyright (c) the author(s).
