That said, I also think that Bush took the war to Iraq without just cause when solely based on Saddam's supposed support of terrorists behind the 9.11 plot.

Gut feeling would be to confront this teacher but you have to ask yourself if it's worth it if the teacher singles out your child for ridicule or just gives him a hard time afterwards. Are you going to raise a stink when they tell your son that Christopher Columbus discovered America though there were already tons of people here? Pick your battles and talk to your son about your side and let him make his own opinion about things and I think you'll win out in the end.
This really isn't a matter of who's right and who's wrong. We could be here all day arguing that point. The point is that as a teacher she should present all of the sides to the story and encourage the kids to think for themselves.
