Some years ago Commentary magazine, the flagship publication for neo-conservative Jews, published an article by Milton Himmelfarb that made the simple assertion: “No Hitler, no Holocaust.” What Himmelfarb meant was that if it hadn’t been for the driving force provided by Adolf Hitler’s anti-Semitism, neither the Germans nor anyone else would have acted towards the…

The front page article in the Los Angeles Times for January 7, 2000, covered many of the general points of Holocaust revisionism clearly and fairly. On the other hand, there were a few points in the article that demand a response, and above all the claim that Holocaust revisionists are out to prove that “the…

When confronted with the horns of dilemma, pick up a handful of sand and throw it in the bull's eyes.

A libel suit filed by the British historian David Irving against the American Jewish religious instructor Deborah Lipstadt is playing itself out in a London courtroom.

Michael Berenbaum's Op-Ed piece in the Los Angeles Times, “The Growing Assault the Truth of Absolute Evil” represents a wild and irrational attack on Holocaust revisionism with little logic and lots of overblown maledictions.

Judge Gray, newly appointed to the bench in England, ruled that, although Lipstadt did libel Irving in her book “Denying the Holocaust”, these libels could not be considered as damaging Irving’s reputation, because Irving had no reputation to…

The ADL trained their sites on another Holocaust outrage, claiming that a proposed New York art exhibit would trivialize the Holocaust. The offender this time is a German artist who planned to set up an exhibit at the Whitney Art Museum in New York featuring a room bedecked with red walls, on which quotes from…

4/3/2000 To Editor, St. Cloud Student Newspaper Open Letter Since the publication of our insert, “The Revisionist” ignited such a controversy on your campus, I would like to take the opportunity to make a few comments clarifying CODOH's objective as well as our reaction to to the campus response. There are probably two elements of…

Last month, in a typically ethnocentric proclamation, the Anti-Defamation League decreed that the swastika, although a venerable religious symbol to perhaps two billion people, was an anti-Semitic symbol of hate. The Revisionist stands shoulder to shoulder with the ADL in ferreting out all symbols of hate, and therefore, as a result of our own research,…

On February 3rd the Zionist Organization of America announced that it was mobilizing a number of prominent Jews, including Elie Wiesel, to run full page advertisements in American newspapers condemning the Syrian newspaper which had accused Israel of manipulating the Holocaust for political purposes. The Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) wishes these…
