When I first learned of the debate between IHR Director Mark Weber and Skeptic magazine editor-publisher Dr. Michael Shermer, I was delighted that a member of the “accepted media” had finally agreed publicly to confront Holocaust revisionist arguments.

Half a century before the “Holocaust” term came into widespread use, and 15 years before the incessantly repeated “Six Million” figure of alleged wartime Jewish victims was ordained at Nuremberg, both were uncannily cited in an influential New York Jewish weekly. This was in the October 31, 1919, issue of The American Hebrew, probably the…

Dr. Bernard Lewis, a leading specialist of Middle Eastern studies, is no stranger to academic controversy. But the pugnacious Jewish scholar never imagined that one day he'd find himself obliged to defend his view of history in a Paris court, much less that he'd be publicly compared to French “Holocaust denier” Robert Faurisson.
