As a country, Poland over the last few centuries has sort of faded in and out, like the light of a firefly. But when it flares into existence, it has distinguished itself at an activity engaged in by repressive (read: all) states everywhere: the detention and torture of political prisoners for information and useful confessions,…

The self-glorifying "history" that every government crams down the throats of the young people they all force to attend school mostly goes ignored by its targets. Exceptional students take the trouble, for various reasons, to learn the material, and of these, a few take it seriously, absorbing some form or other of its ideological import….

The Institute for Historical Review recently distributed this link to a review of the fraud perpetrated by author Alex Haley in his famous Roots book and television series. The difference between Haley and Holo-fraudster Elie Wiesel? Haley never got a Nobel Prize. And why not, considering?

One of my favorite things about b&bs is the books one finds in the great majority of them. These books aren’t today’s best-sellers; they might not even have been best sellers in their own day. Like books in general, most of them are rubbish, and/or, being fiction, are of little interest to me. But some…

Holocaust denial is ideologically motivated. The deniers’ strategy is to sow seeds of doubt through deliberate distortion and misrepresentation of the historical evidence. Teachers should be careful not to unwittingly legitimise the deniers through engaging in a false debate. “How to Teach about the Holocaust in Schools”, International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance The passage above has…

Carmen Bretin Lindemann Even though the Holocaust took place entirely in the northern hemisphere, eastern half, its reach now spans the globe, and has at least since 1960, when Israel’s Mossad snatched Adolf Eichmann from his self-imposed exile in the southern hemisphere, western half (Argentina) and smuggled him to Israel, where a gallows awaited him….

It will require a war—a big, long war, the kind that causes millions upon millions of deaths and uproots and disperses many millions more besides. You can’t have a Holocaust without these things. But first, let me clarify exactly what I mean by a “Holocaust.” I’m not talking about whatever happened to so many of…

These documents, devoid of any real meaning, are the focus of yet another Holocaust sensationalism. Austria's largest newspaper, the tabloid Kronen Zeitung, published this breathless report (in German) on 6,300 census forms recently found inside an interior wall in a mansion close by the Parliament building in Budapest. The forms, circulated in four districts of…
