How Deniers Keep Their Friends

Why does it seem that with every new issue of Inconvenient History, instead of being awestruck by some new found history and research that shakes the core of our conventional and ‘mainstream’ beliefs, we are instead witness to the perpetual revisionist attempts to ignore or hand wave ‘inconvenient’ information? Be it Joe Bishop’s failures on the open-air shootings, Dalton’s spinning of Goebbels’ 27 March 1942 diary entry, or Kues’ oddball attempts to prove ‘resettlement’ via tertiary and hearsay sources while ignoring German wartime documents, Inconvenient History has done more to show the weakness of revisionist arguments than their bona fides.

In the latest issue, we are provided yet another letdown of revisionist honesty, particularly in Jett Rucker’s “profile” of David Irving.
