When the staff of the Georgetown Voice decided to run the CODOH advertisement titled, “A Revisionist's View of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum,” it was perfectly aware that the ad would cause controversy and bruise the sensibilities of some. The Voice moved deliberately. After substantial preliminary discussion, it placed the issue before the newspaper's general…

Dear AnswerMan, I believe I read a few weeks ago at one of the Revisionist sites that the Auschwitz gas chamber was 'reconstructed by the Poles in the 1960s and that an authority on the Holocaust had testified to this fact.

Dear Answer Man: Herschel Grynszpan murdered a German diplomat in Paris in 1938. The response in Germany was the Night of Broken Glass. The Germans occupied Paris in 1940. This murderer was transferred to German custody. Although one might anticipate an immediate execution of the Jewish assassin of a German diplomat, this did not occur….

Dear AnswerMan, Since you deny that the Holocaust happened, why don't you accept the label Holocaust deniers? Sarah Delillo AnswerMan Replies: Answerman has already responded to the first part of your question, under the post, “Did the Holocaust Exist?” The second part of your question turns on the revisionist rejection of the term, Holocaust Denier….
