Some people love to read op-eds just because it’s an opinion by some guy or gal they like or dislike. So here we go…

    We are sometimes asked why we devote so much effort to the Holocaust issue. No, it’s not some bizarre obsession. We do so because, by any objective standard, “the Holocaust” has come to play a very important role in our society. The wartime fate of Europe’s Jews is treated not as another chapter of history,…

    ““My goal in this war,”” thundered Winston Churchill in his widely-quoted speech of May 13, 1940, “is victory, victory at all costs.” As history records, the cost was very high indeed. As a consequence of his policies, Britain did not win the Second World War. It merely ended up on the same side as the…

  • A New Journal and a New Era

    Between the beginning of 1980 and the end of 1992 (with a one year suspension in 1987), twelve annual volumes of the familiar quarterly Journal were published. In the 5,800 pages of these 46 issues, we have been proud to present hundreds of articles and essays, including first-ever publication of articles of major importance by…

    We begin this issue with another IHR exclusive. Published here for the first time anywhere are copies of inmate death certificates from the long-hidden Auschwitz camp death registry volumes. These documents, which remained inaccessible in Soviet archives for more than 40 years, disprove the widely repeated myth that all Jewish inmates in Auschwitz who were…

    In 1988, when Fred Leuchter carried out the first forensic examination of the alleged wartime extermination gas chambers at Auschwitz, Birkenau and Majdanek, and then testified on his findings in a Toronto court, the American execution hardware specialist did not realize that by doing so he was condemning himself to years of insults, threats and…

    This issue of The Journal of Historical Review, the forty-fourth, completes Volume Eleven. Its two feature articles, Dr. Andreas Wesserle's passionate critique of George Bush's “New World Disorder” and Dr. Charles Lutton's survey of half-a-century's study (and evasion) of the facts beyond the December 7, 1941 “Day of Infamy,” signal an advance and a return,…

    This issue continues, and completes, the JHR's exploitation of that marvelous godsend from the Klarsfelds and their monied supporters, Jean-Claude Pressac's Auschwitz: Technique and Operation of the Gas Chambers. Pressac's massive study is the first attempt by Exterminationists to come to grips with the Revisionists' technical arguments against mass murder at the Auschwitz crematoria. As…

    This Fall 1991 issue of The Journal of Historical Review begins with two more nails in the coffin of what Editorial Advisory Committee member Dr. Wilhelm Stäglich has called the “Auschwitz myth.” The first, Brian Renk's expos e of what has seemed to a number of Exterminationists as the long-sought “smoking gun” (“dusty document” would…

    In this issue of The Journal of Historical Review we are proud to publish, for the first time in English, the Second Leuchter Report, which has just appeared in a French translation, in the premiere issue of Revue d'histoire révisionniste (B.P. 122, 92704 Colombes Cédex, France). Just as Fred Leuchter's minute investigation of the remains…

    This fortieth issue of The Journal of Historical Review, capping a decade of publication (with one year's “sabbatical”) could be called the “David Irving issue.” In three separate, full-length articles the Englishman gives a masterly display of his versatility as an historian. The dogged prospector for original sources, the merciless discreditor of the forgeries on…
