Harvard Heroism

By Bradley R. Smith ∙ October 1, 1992

Last updated on

John Demjanjuk, railroaded to Israel on bogus charges of murdering upwards of a million Jews in gas chambers at Treblinka, though now seen almost universally as innocent of that ludicrous charge, may still be strung up by our allies who run the only democracy in the Middle East. How has such a scenario come to pass in a state founded by such caring people? The usual way. Jewish “survivors” gave false eyewitness evidence to the court. In all likelihood their inventions will soon be set in concrete at Yad Vashem, along with the thousands of other false eyewitness testimonies about German atrocities against Jews on file there and remarked on by Yad Vashem's archives director Shmuel Krakowski.

Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz must be panting to be there on the big day. He lusts for Demjanjuk's hanging so deeply that he has written that even if Demjanjuk is innocent of the crimes he has been convicted of at Treblinka, it would be proper to hang him anyhow because there is good reason to believe he did something naughty at Sobibor. In Dershowitz's imagination, it wouldn't be necessary to try him for those crimes. In my minds eye I can see our Harvard lawyer now, struggling to control his bowels as the noose is fitted around Jon Demjanjuk's neck, shaking his curly head up and down and grunting “Yes! Yes!”

A correspondent sends me a clipping from the Chicago Tribune about an Israeli prosecutor traveling to Moscow in search of at least one real document placing Demjanjuk at Treblinka. My correspondent writes: “The Russians need money so badly, the KGB is ready to provide the Israelis with documents proving John Demjanjuk is actually Eva Braun. Indeed, an enterprising ex-agent recently posted a hand-lettered sign in front of KGB headquarters in Moscow announcing:

“Clearance Sale!

Declassified State Secrets!

Three Forgers—No Waiting!”

Another sign, our progressive friends point out, of how freedom and capitalism corrupt men's souls with greed for wealth. In the old days, when the commies were running things over there, the KGB cooked their holocaust documents free of charge.

  • 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.
