Everything Is Going Our Way Now

By Bradley R. Smith ∙ March 1, 1996

Everything is going our way now. The great censorship confrontation on the Internet (it began with pornography and quickly moved against Ernst Zuendel’s Web-site and revisionism) and the coalescing of free-press organizations to fight against President Clinton’s “Communications Decency Act” (which is considerably more complicated and dangerous than is yet understood by the public) will work to our favor. The readership of our publishing site on the World Wide Web is growing steadily, as is the site itself. Richard Widmann and David Thomas are handling all the technical and much of the editorial work for the site. The CODOH advertisements are beginning to appear in student newspapers, students are volunteering to help distribute flyers on campus. I know the Other Side is monitoring everything, ready to pounce the moment something starts to get out of control, but then so am I. In short, it’s the best of all possible worlds.

“The Holocaust Controversy: The Case for Open Debate” is enclosed with this report as a leaflet. This is the text of the full-page advertisement that ran in some of the most important university newspapers in the land. This 1996 updated version of the leaflet announces the CODOH World Wide Web-site, as well as the availability of 46 Unanswered Questions about the “gassing chambers.” I encourage you to send copies of this leaflet to radio, TV, the print press, college papers, and to individuals who you think might be interested in revisionism, or should be. Help me get out the news of CODOH’s Internet Web-site.

We have a new concept for The Campus Project, which has become doable in a way it never was before. We have a very modest advertisement to run in student newspapers. Because it’s small, it’s inexpensive. But the ad announces a publishing site that is anything but small. The information on the site is available to everyone in America, Europe and indeed to everyone on the planet who is computer literate or has a friend who is. That includes nearly all college and university students anywhere in the world, their professors and those who administer the professors.

David Irving’s introduction to his soon-to-be published Goebbels: Mastermind of the Third Reich, is available on the CODOH Web-site. As is David Cole’s 46 Unanswered Questions About the World War II “Gas Chambers.” Students and everyone else can print out articles and press clips on “Zionism, Stalinism and the Holocaust,” “Gas Chambers and Gas Vans,” the “Thought Crimes Archives,” Nuremberg and Other War Crimes Trials.”

The Internet has a tremendous reach, and it’s cheap! A $100 contribution pays for the new CODOH ad in one student newspaper once a week for five weeks or more. $200 pays for it to run for 10 weeks or longer. If you want to run the ad at a particular campus, tell me which one and we’ll take care of it. (Those of you who have already offered to pay for the ad to run at a particular campus will hear from me within 15 days.) We’re at an important turning point. This time when we open the door to the campus and media, it’s going to remain open. There will be no way for the Other Side to close it. It’s a new ball game.

  • Bradley R. Smith

    Bradley R. Smith was born in Los Angeles on February 18, 1930. At 18 he joined the army and in 1951 served with the infantry in Korea where he was twice wounded. After three decades of a variety of professional activities, it suddenly hit him: In 1979 he read a leaflet by Professor Robert Faurisson, "The Problem of the Gas Chambers." Then, Arthur Butz’s The Hoax of the Twentieth Century did it for him. He understood from the beginning that he would address the censorship, the suppression of independent thought, the taboo against publishing and debating revisionist arguments—not the arguments themselves. That has remained his position. In 1989, Smith founded Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) dedicated to defending free speech and free inquiry into the Holocaust question. He handed over CODOH's helm in late 2014. He passed away on his 86th birthday, February 18, 2016. Read a series of obituaries here.
