Names. Clippings. Mea Culpa

By Bradley R. Smith ∙ June 1, 1997

NAMES: They’re still the name of the game. If you know someone you think would be interested in receiving a free copy of Smith’s Report and my essay, “The Holocaust Controversy; The Case for Open Debate,” please send me his or her name. Every new subscriber is important, even if it’s only one. CLIPPINGS: Please continue to send relevant press clippings, particularly, but not exclusively, from sources I am unlikely to see in my daily round. Don’t think the other person will do it. He won’t do it. MEA CULPA: I want to apologize to those of you who had to wait so long to receive materials from the Tinbergen Archives which you ordered for me. It was not Tinbergen's fault, but mine. My right-hand woman, Robin, left in February to have a baby and after she returned in April she could only work about ten days before she had to leave for good. Those of you who ordered from us were caught in the middle. We have everything pretty well cleared up now (I’m still working on the sets of back issues of SR but am almost there) and will be back on course in about ten days. Again—it wasn’t Tinbergen; it was me.

[Your contribution helps sustain CODOH and CODOHWeb and our growing audience, which stretches from occupied Berlin to occupied East Jerusalem. We can do it with you, but how could we do it without you?]

  • 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.

    In July, Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone commented that Hitler’s actions during World War Two should be put “into context.” This comment along with the assertion that “Jewish domination of the media” has prevented an honest discussion about the Holocaust landed the “JFK” director in hot water.

    I didn’t know Charlie Kirk. I never watched, let alone attended any of his podcasts or debates, and I have not read a single piece of his writings. In fact, until a few days ago, I didn’t even know his name. As far as I could figure out, he did not use his right to…

    For the fourth issue of last year’s Inconvenient History, a Greek revisionist submitted four papers, all of them reviews of various books, although one was a mere brief scrutiny of false claimed made by one author (Lawrence Rees).

    When I published my first revisionist book as a one-man-publisher back in late 1998 while still residing in England,[1] it took only a few months to get a very positive feedback from a well-known revisionist in the U.S., who was not only excited about such a fine study being written and published, but who also…
