If you contributed to CODOH or Smith’s Report before 30 August 19%, and have not contributed since, your time has come You’re help is appreciated, and will be used as productively as possible.

The last issue of Smith’s Report (#47) reported, prematurely and incorrectly, that Robert Faurisson was fined “over $4,000 for violating France’s Fabius-Gayssot law…” He writes to say that the fine imposed at sentencing (October 23) was actually $20,000. Fortunately, the threatened jail time was not imposed by the court.

We have 30+ pages of documents and correspondence between Carlos Porter and the German court. Some are comic, others are interesting without being in the least amusing. All are informative and make a fine portfolio— and a fine excuse for you to contribute to the work we are doing here. As a thank-you for your contribution I’ll send you the 30+ pages of Porter court documents. With your help, I can do it. Without your help?—not a chance.

Thanks,
Bradley

  • Bradley R. Smith

    Bradley R. Smith was born in Los Angeles on February 18, 1930. At 18 he joined the army and in 1951 served with the infantry in Korea where he was twice wounded. After three decades of a variety of professional activities, it suddenly hit him: In 1979 he read a leaflet by Professor Robert Faurisson, "The Problem of the Gas Chambers." Then, Arthur Butz’s The Hoax of the Twentieth Century did it for him. He understood from the beginning that he would address the censorship, the suppression of independent thought, the taboo against publishing and debating revisionist arguments—not the arguments themselves. That has remained his position. In 1989, Smith founded Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) dedicated to defending free speech and free inquiry into the Holocaust question. He handed over CODOH's helm in late 2014. He passed away on his 86th birthday, February 18, 2016. Read a series of obituaries here.

    The name of the game is names. Without an increasing number of subscribers to Smith’s Report, many of whom become contributors as well, I’m a dead duck.
