I'm not sure if the re...@ Roberto Muehlenkamp,<br /><br />I'm not sure if the real identity of the "Debating the Holocaust" author has been revealed yet, so I'm going out on a limb here with a couple of ideas. Couldn't it be that the book's author REALLY IS the econ prof at UAZ? Perhaps he's just denying the queries to avoid harassment, and at the same time "hiding out in the open." That technique could work quite well by throwing people off the trail and sending them on a hopeless excursion to find the real TD; every direction away from the cloaked source is the wrong direction. May not be too likely a tactic, but it's possible.<br /><br />OR<br /><br />Do you suppose <a href="http://www.sandiego.edu/business/faculty/bio.php?id=65" rel="nofollow">this person</a> could be the author of the book instead of the prof. at UAZ? It's a related field.

Almost ...Let's just simplify this for a moment. Almost all professional historians will stake their career on the facts as presented by the US Holocaust Museum, Yad Vashem, the US National Archives, and Nizkor; the German Records Collection, Wikipedia and virtually every other major Holocaust research organization agrees with the figure. They all state that about six million Jews were murdered in the Nazi genocide against the Jews, known as the Shoah, or the Holocaust. I did not make this up. It is the result of six years of daily research for a published book. Any person, let alone a PhD historian, who wishes to deny or discredit this fact, might as well deny the existence of gravity. Any high school graduate learned this in History class. <br /><br />But, forget the proof. What if the proof were only half correct? Of course, it is not; but what if only a million Jews were murdered? It would still remain the most egregious and vast genocide against a religious group in history; although the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition (both also against Jews) would be similar in context. Regardless, millions of innocent Jewish men, women and children were taken by Nazis and Einsatzgruppen from their homes, forced into decrepit ghettos, sent into forced labor camps, enslaved, starved and finally murdered – all because of their religion. Hundreds of thousands were shot by Einsatzgruppen before they could be sent to a concentration camp.<br /><br />The truth is that six million Jews were murdered by Nazi Germany. Yet, even if we were acknowledging the fabrications of Holocaust revisionists (deniers), it would remain the worst genocide in history. So, whether we accept the truth from professional historians, based upon thousands of thesis and dissertation research projects and the admission of Nazi leaders that they murdered millions of innocent Jews (see Eichmann), or whether we believe the fabrications of those who wish to revise history, either way the Shoah remains the worst genocide in history. So, why are we arguing? Either way, Nazi Germany perpetrated the vastest genocide in history. So, what’s the point here?Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543105906628694496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24597325.post-58625239544727948382010-06-28T23:10:42.986+01:002010-06-28T23:10:42.986+01:00Roberto,
Why don’t you “care about 9-11 truth?”
...Roberto,<br /><br />Why don’t you “care about 9-11 truth?”<br /><br />Do you only care about mass murder when the victims are Jews?<br /><br />And if so, why should you expect non-Jews to care about the Holocaust?<br /><br />And why are you offended that Christians “deny” the truth about the Jewish mass murder of the past if you yourself you deny the truth about the 9-11 mass murder of the present?<br /><br />Ever heard of Kant’s Categorical Imperative? It’s just a fancy way of saying: what’s good for the Christian-goose ought to be good for the Jewish-gander.<br /><br />MiguelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24597325.post-28006087294489579102010-04-29T03:18:09.181+01:002010-04-29T03:18:09.181+01:00Just to be fair to "Thomas Dalton" it is...Just to be fair to "Thomas Dalton" it is now very clear that this name is a pen name and pseudonym. Frankly I don't see how he could use that name on a petition that is meant to show actual people oppossed to "hate crime" legislation that makes denial (oh sorry "Revisionism") a crime. <br /><br />Now "Thomas Dalton" could use his real name but I wouldn't blame him if he declined to do so as that could still open him up for public harassment and loss of his job (especially if he actually is a college teacher).Robert86https://www.blogger.com/profile/07399340685632529674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24597325.post-70185322882683885792010-04-28T19:18:55.035+01:002010-04-28T19:18:55.035+01:00I don't care about the 9/11 truth movement and...I don't care about the 9/11 truth movement and it is not the subject matter of this blog spot, so please take your quarrels with Kevin Barrett somewhere else. <br /><br />I don't think that Kevin Barrett is into Holocaust denial. What is more, from our exchanges after the interview I gathered that he realized that Mr. "Dalton" is taking his readers for a ride. <br /><br />If I appeared on Kevin's program it was in order to give a known denier a few slappings rather than allow him to spout his propaganda unchallenged, which I hope you will agree is a meritorious objective.Roberto Muehlenkamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03608133715777146924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24597325.post-74500288950145620412010-04-28T18:19:31.656+01:002010-04-28T18:19:31.656+01:00Kevin Barrett lied to Noam Chomsky, claiming he...Kevin Barrett lied to Noam Chomsky, claiming he'd lost a tenure-track position for his political beliefs, to lure him into an email exchange. Barrett is an incompetent scholar who can't even spell the names of the media figures he attacks ("Summer Redstone" and "Robert Murdoch"). He never had a tenure-track position. <br /><br />After the email correspondence broke down, Barrett published the lot, though he'd promised Chomsky that they'd remain confidential. He still brags about it today.<br /><br />I can understand why you felt it necessary to appear on his radio program, but please do not show him a respect that he does not deserve. His bigotry, disrespect for truth, and childish kookiness have done enormous damage to the credibility of the 9/11 truth movement. I hope that as he devotes himself to his holocaust denial and bigotry the truth movement can finally be quit of him.snug.bughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09412792156178127582noreply@blogger.com
