Why Knowing History is Important

http://shoebat.com/2015/04/11/for-the-first-time-in-eighty-five-years-the-koran-is-being-recited-in-the-hagia-sofia-one-of-the-holiest-churches-in-christian-history-that-was-forced-to-be-a-mosque/

As I saw this headline, I thought immediately to when my kids and I were studying the Hagia Sofia in history this year.

If we hadn't covered that, would this headline mean anything to them? To me?

I don't think so. Studying history is so important to make sense of conflicts we have today.
