so do they teach new immigrants any 'real' history?
Speaking as a new immigrant, I can say with some certainty that the answer to that is 'no'.
Now, if you'll be so kind as to point me in the direction of the nearest welfare office, I'll be on my way.

RE; DNA sampling.
How long, and under what circumstances, is the sample kept? And who is it available to?

the study of history has become and end in itself, rather than a possible path to understanding.
And there has also been some quite fascinating discussion of abstract concepts, for example Simon's arguments that the seeds of fascism are present in every society and every individual, and must be guarded against. I would also argue that at least this point relates directly to the point of the original post, and so is entirely on topic.
For my own part, I was, and am, interested in exploring the idea that the seeds of the Nazi's own downfall were contained in their philosophy from inception. Exploring this abstract historical-political idea necessarily involves bean-counting and hair-splitting. I'd hope that I'm able to 'snap out of it and link all that stuff back into the broader picture somehow', as Kyle says. It's also probably off-topic, but that's the direction the discussion took.
