Good Morning Australia!! - Holocaust denial creeps up in Europe - Ethnic cleansing survivors say their is damning evidence in Myanmar - The orange clown stabs Paul Ryan in the back - And more in your CareerSpot Global News Briefs:

Despite promises to Israel to reexamine the legislation, Poland's upper house has passed a bill to make it a crime to suggest Polish involvement in the Holocaust.  Critics say the bill - written by far-right lawmakers - whitewashes Polish collaboration with the nazi occupiers who exterminated millions of Jews in death camp located on Polish soil, as well as chopping away at free speech in the Central European country.  History shows some worked with the nazis while a number of Poles risked their lives to help hide Jews, according to the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews.  People who use the phrase "Polish death camp" could be sentenced to three years in prison.  Even though Israel has condemned the legislation as "offensive and wrong", Polish President Andrzej Duda has hinted he will sign it.  

Think it doesn't matter?  Oh, it does.  A senior member of Austria's coalition partner far-right ex-nazi-founded Freedom Party (FPO) resigned from politics after revelations that he used an anti-Semitic songbook to lead sing-alongs at a fraternity he helped lead.  Oh, and the name of the frat?  Germania, the ancient Roman name of the area of Europe populated by Germanic-speaking people, a term favored by the nazis in building their 20th century Reich.  Officials say they will use anti-hate speech laws to break up the Germania fraternity.  Austria is the first Western European country with a far-right fascist party sharing power in government. 

Oh, and don't even get me started on the former nazi torture center in Hamburg, Germany that's been renovated into luxury flats.  WTH.

Rohingya Muslims who survived the ethnic cleansing in Myanmar's Rakhine state are reporting the existence of five mass graves.  Myanmar's government has denied its troops or nationalist mobs have carried out mass murders, but does admit there is one grave filled with the bodies of what it calls "terrorists".  Human Rights watch (HRW) Asia director Phil Robertson says the new information "raise the stakes for the international community to demand accountability from Myanmar". 

A Myanmar court denied bail for two Reuters News Agency journalists who reported on the ethnic cleansing in Rakhine state.  Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo were arrested after showing up for a dinner invitation from police officers, and were charged with violating the Officials Secrets Act - even though their reporting was based on accounts that were already published in newspapers.  The Committee to Protect Journalists says the two "should be granted bail immediately and Myanmar authorities should drop all charges against them".

A UN official says a new humanitarian disaster is brewing in northwest Syria:  Government troops backed by Russia and Iran are besieging rebel-held Idlib, while Turkish forces are attacking Kurdish YPG forces in Afrin.  "We cannot have conventional warfare in what is essentially a refugee camp," said Jan Egeland, the head of a UN task force on humanitarian aid in Syria.  About half of the Syrians who live there are internally displaced, forced into refugee camps from there home elsewhere in the war torn country.

Three of Kenya's top TV stations remain off the air, despite a High Court order to end the government-imposed blackout.  Kenyan authorities pulled the plugs on KTN, NTV, and Citizen TV over plans to show live news coverage of leader opposition leader Raila Odinga's unofficial "inauguration" on Tuesday.  The interior ministry claimed broadcasting the live news was an attempt to "subvert or overthrow" the government and "would have led to the deaths of thousands of innocent Kenyans".  BS.

A fire at a transitional home for the poor in Sapporo, Japan killed at least eleven people.  The cause is under investigation.

The orange clown Donald Trump reportedly admitted that he is releasing a GOP-drafted memo to discredit the probe into Russian influence on his campaign and administration led by special prosecutor Robert Mueller.  This directly contradicted Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan who a day earlier claimed that the decision to release the memo was not related to Mueller.  The memo, drafted by Trump's flunky in the House Rep. Devin Nunes, reportedly points out alleged bias in the Justice Department and FBI, but critics who've seen it says it's nothing more than a list of Republican talking points that takes potentially classified information out of context.

Labor MP David Feeney has resigned from federal politics after failing to produce documents confirming he had renounced any foreign citizenship in 2007.  His father from Northern Ireland appears to have unknowingly bequeathed UK citizenship to Mr. Feeney.  How exotic!  His resignation will trigger a by-election in his home turf of Batman, and I apologize in advance for this: 
Na na na na na na na na Batman
But seriously, Australia has got to get this Section 44 thing under control.
