Dear Dr. Lipstadt: I have just finished reading D.D. Guttenplan's The Holocaust on Trial. There is one passage in the book that really struck me.

Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland, Jan T. Gross, Princeton University Press, Princeton and Oxford, 2001 Although erroneously charged with “denying” the Holocaust, revisionists have for years actually only sought to redefine “Holocaust.” In the standard historiography, “Holocaust” is defined as the systematic destruction of over six million European Jews by…

Over the last year or so, a slogan created by the French Holocaust revisionist, Robert Faurisson has gotten some derisive coverage from those who disagree with him over the size and character of the Shoah.

There is a saying attributed to the U.S. President Lincoln, that the law may declare a steer to be a cow but the law can not make it give milk. Similarly a building may be declared a gas chamber but that does not make it work for gassing people. The U.S. has used the same…

I run ads in college newspapers encouraging students and professors alike to take seriously the great ideal of Western culture, intellectual freedom—even with regard to the Holocaust controversy. Because I argue for an open debate on the Holocaust you are told that I’m anti-Semitic; yet I invite Jews everywhere to join with me, in a…

Jean-François Steiner's 1966 book Treblinka purports to be a factual account of what happened at the German concentration camp during the Second World War. It was, he says, based on the eyewitness testimony of 40 of the 600 inmates who escaped during the August 2, 1943 prisoner uprising. In the Afterword, Steiner explains that in…

You know, I was warned early on that there isn't any money to be made in Revisionism. That didn't really bother me, since I was hired on as a clerk, secretary, hired right-hand. I was grateful for the job. But tonight, as our Constitution is still under fire, our President-Elect is still being ignored by…
