Saying it didn't happen wasn't an option for the defendants at that trial. It was already assumed by the court that the exterminations had taken place. If you really want to go deeper into this (and most people don't), read Arthur Butz's "Hoax of the 20th Century." Germany is one of those countries wherein it is illegal > to deny the Holocaust.

If the Church burns people at the stake for claiming that the earth orbits the sun, does that somehow prove that the sun orbits the earth? The fact that people who "deny" the holocaust get thrown in jail convinces me more than anything that the holocaust is a load of baloney. If one has truth on his side, he doesn't need to throw people in jail, get them fired from their jobs, conduct smear campaigns against them, or try to censor their books and websites. -- Men Are Better Than Women - http://www.menarebetterthanwomen.com/ |

Do you think there might be an agenda behind their tireless promotion of the holocaust? Do you think there might be an "agenda" behind the French President's plan to force young schoolchildren to pretend they are concentration camp inmates? Do you think there might be an agenda behind equating every white person who wants to see immigration reform with an evil Nazi who wants to kill six million Jews? It wasn't revisionists, or Palestinians, or Scientologists, who politicized the holocaust. Pick up any general encyclopedia from say, 1961, and you'll see that no one really gave a rat's ass about the holocaust until Jews in the publishing and entertainment industries started saturating the public's mind with it in the late 60's/early 70's. > Holocaust deniers would have to be the most dangerous and deserve to > be shut down from saying whatever they like. Free speech should only > be for people that know how to reason sensibly. Oh yeah? And who gets to decide that? You? The Simon Weisenthal Center? The only reason folks like you would like to shut up folks like me is because you couldn't debate your way out of a paper bag. You have no case. All you can do is try to silence the opposition. -- Men Are Better Than Women - http://www.menarebetterthanwomen.com/ |

Absolutely. And rightly so: bigotry should not be protected speech. The most interesting thing, though, is that everybody who questions the holocaust always turns out to be a raving anti-semite. I wonder why it is that nice, sane people never come to the same conclusion as the holocaust deniers. Guy -- May contain traces of irony.

If you really want to read a history that's a crock of shite, have a look at some of the denial stuff. Misrepresentation, misinterpretation of sources, discarding of problematic testimony, credulous acceptance of sources that back up their theory, the odd lie and made up source. But yeah, I was mildly surprised that much of the paperwork on the holocaust was missing. The killers had destroyed much of it. It almost looks like they were ashamed of what they'd done... |

The people who created the holocaust myth were actually very sloppy. They left loose ends all over the place. Read any conventional history of the holocaust with a skeptical mind and you will be amazed at how flimsy the evidence really is. The irony is that if they had just stuck to claiming that a quarter of a million Jews were worked to death in the concentration camps, no one could have ever proved them wrong. But somehow a quarter of a million people dying of semi-natural causes in the context of a war that killed over 60 million people doesn't elicit quite as much sympathy as saying half of Europe's Jewish population was gassed en masse. Personally, I believe the holocaust myth was in large part created by the Soviets in order to distract the world's attention from their own wrongdoings, which were far worse than anything the Nazis are even alleged to have done. At the Nuremberg Trials, the Soviets even tried to pin the Katyn massacre, which they had perpetrated themselves, on the Germans. Every once in a while in Eastern Europe, they'll dig up a mass grave and claim that these were holocaust victims, though it is far more likely that these were the victims of the Soviet secret police. -- Men Are Better Than Women - http://www.menarebetterthanwomen.com/ |
