Orthodoxy Criticized

Critique and counter-critique is one of the hallmarks of a scholarly attitude, so it goes without saying that revisionists are taking their opponents’ arguments and responses seriously. Hence, this section addresses the theses of several orthodox scholars on the Holocaust which have evoked revisionist responses. Although most orthodox scholars insist that revisionist arguments are not even worth looking at, a number of them have in fact breached the taboo and have not only looked at revisionist arguments, but have actually deigned to criticize them in one way or other. The revisionist responses and rebuttals can be found here as well.

The Lies and Deceptions of Deborah Lipstadt

Today, on May 4, 2017, U.S.-American professor of Jewish history and Holocaust studies Deborah Lipstadt will lecture at 7pm at the McCormick Foundation Forum of Northwestern University. CODOH tried to place an ad in the Daily Northwestern, but that was rejected. We tried to find someone to inconspicuously leave several CODOH leaflets at that venue, but…

Lipstadt, Alternative Facts and Northwestern University.

There is a certain amount of irony in Professor Deborah Lipstadt's lecture on "Alternative Facts;” given the amount of misinformation surrounding the Irving v. Penguin Trial. What was the Trial Really About? Lipstadt and her supporters have loudly proclaimed that the trial “proved the Holocaust.” That is not accurate. Judge Gray specifically stated: “It is…

Anti-Gentiles Deny the 5 Million!

Leading Jewish Holocaustians recently attacked President Donald Trump for issuing a statement on International Holocaust Remembrance Day that did not specify that the victims were Jews. The result is that the public has been informed by Deborah Lipstadt that the Holocaust is by definition an exclusively Jewish matter, and by Yehuda Bauer that the old war propaganda…

Brief Note on “The Central Database of Shoah Victims’ Names” and the Number of Dead Reported therein

Abstract Inspired by another paper, this paper briefly probes the Yad Vashem database of Holocaust victims. It turns out that the database contains many names of survivors, and that individuals are listed in it twice or even numerous times. The article “How to increase the number of Holocaust deaths”[1] incontrovertibly exposes real and serious problems, but those…

How to Increase the Number of Deaths in the Holocaust

Abstract In 2013, Italian police forces raided the homes of numerous participants of the U.S. Stormfront blog. The background of this raid was a discussion about the veracity and reliability of entries in the victims’ database of the Israeli Yad Vashem Holocaust Remembrance Center, among other things. To verify these claims, Italian blogger Olodogma looked…

The Bankruptcy of Yad Vashem or How to Reach 6,000,000

Abstract In early 2005, Yad Vashem, the official Israeli institute charged with managing the memory of the extermination of the Jews by the Germans, made publicly accessible a database of victims of the Shoah. At that point, it contained approximately three million names of “Jews who perished in the Shoah.” The long-term goal is to…

Zyklon-B Deliveries to Auschwitz

Abstract Already during the Nuremberg postwar trials, the huge amount of Zyklon-B deliveries to the infamous Auschwitz Camp were seen as evidence for homicidal activities on a large scale in that camp. Revisionists, on the other hand, have maintained that this insecticide was used only to combat vermin in the struggle against epidemics. In a…

Denying Denial

[ Editor’s Note: The Ernst Zündel trial, where both David Irving and Fred Leuchter were witnesses, is something I had a front row seat on, having known Ingrid and Ernst for a long time now. The Holohoax Lobby went down in flames from that court case, as it got massive publicity. Sure… the Lobby folks…
