A New Cycle

Editorial Note

That marvelous entity, the human body, goes through a process whereby it constantly renews its cells. Old, injured, or malfunctioning cells die off and new ones replace them. After a cycle lasting approximately seven years, the human body is completely renewed; all the cells are brand new, and the body starts a fresh cycle.

The Institute for Historical Review has just held its Seventh International Revisionist Conference and, like the human body, is about to embark on a new cycle. The trials and terrorism that plagued us in the past are behind us. We have been tried, but not been found wanting. The strength of the truth has sustained us and will continue to do so.

Through the generosity of our supporters, we now have a new, secure, and functionally efficient building from which we can conduct our business, part of which is bringing this journal to you. We also have an infusion of new blood, replacing and augmenting our staff, who with their energy and ideas will rejuvenate and invigorate the Institute and its work.

The IHR stands firm in its commitment to restore historical truth by bringing history into accord with the facts, and with innovation and un-swerving dedication during this new cycle we shall make sure that the truth is heard.

    After some negotiations, John Wear has agreed to help out with running Inconvenient History. Right, now, this seems to materialize in such a way that almost all contributions are written by him. This is not sustainable in the long run, as such a monoculture is not only dangerous. It will inevitably lead to an early…

    We are sometimes asked why we devote so much effort to the Holocaust issue. No, it’s not some bizarre obsession. We do so because, by any objective standard, “the Holocaust” has come to play a very important role in our society. The wartime fate of Europe’s Jews is treated not as another chapter of history,…

    This fortieth issue of The Journal of Historical Review, capping a decade of publication (with one year's “sabbatical”) could be called the “David Irving issue.” In three separate, full-length articles the Englishman gives a masterly display of his versatility as an historian. The dogged prospector for original sources, the merciless discreditor of the forgeries on…

On closer inquiry, we concluded that this referred to Castle Hill’s German language material. Although not illegal in the US., Stripe requires…
