  • If you would like to read “God Bless the Hillel Rabbis,” mentioned above by a sensitive and perceptive explorer of CODOHWeb, I’ll be glad to send it along for our usual generous donation. (“God Bless. .. “ is a 3,100-word excerpt from the book manuscript I’m working on titled A Simple Writer.)
  • I want to thank those of you who have sent me new names of individuals who you believe would be interested in Smith’s Report. Keep ‘em coming! Names—the name of the game!
  • HELP! Check your records. If you have not contributed to CODOH or Smith’s Report in ten months or longer, your time is come. I balk at not continuing to send you SR every month, but sooner or later my native good sense will prevail.

Here’s hoping we will all have a good holiday season and a fine new year. Thank you for your interest, your good will, and all your help. I can do it with you; without you there’s not a chance.

  • 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.

  • From the Editor

    There are different kinds of revisionism, and different sorts of revisionists. That’s no news to veteran revisionists. In fact, the diversity of opinion among revisionists has been far more troubling to the wardens of opinion on the Holocaust and other historical taboos than to the revisionist movement. Ernst Zündel’s association with Jews such as Josef…

    Friend: The dog-days of August are upon us, the temperatures here in the San Joaquin Valley average 95 to 105 degrees, while the snow that we can still see on the crests of the Sierra Nevada is pouring down into the ten-foot-wide canals that bisect the city. One canal lies right behind our backyard fence…
