Responding to one of my posts on Mel Gibson, a reader who identifies himself as Paul Davies writes that he is not ashamed of being a Holocaust denier. Since he declares that he is not ashamed to be a Holocaust denier, I thought that I would give his comments a more prominent viewing, here. The reader can then decide for him or herself:
These recent events should only make you admire Mel more. It shows he’s one of the few men of principle left in Hollywood. Very few other people would have stood up to the amount of political pressure which he has been put under and hysteria from a public who have never read the objective facts about the holocaust.
As for holocaust denial why is that such a taboo subject?
If he had said that the Japanese didn’t murder millions of Chinese in the Second world war and that the numbers were more like tens of thousands what would you have said?
“What’s your evidence?”, “your opinion goes against the main stream opinion” or “you are clearly wrong”
Would you say it “is about as morally bankrupt as one can get”? I doubt it.
We live in an era when it is ok to depict Christ as having sex with a prostitute.
So why is it “morally bankrupt” when someone doesn’t believe the official version of historic events that are supposed to have happened 60 years ago?
Why does everybody get so shocked when anyone doubts the scale of the holocaust?
Because since we were born we have been bombarded with propaganda about how it was the worst thing that ever happened in history, that anyone who doubts it is the epitome of evil and that even if you read some revisionist material you should feel guilty (almost akin to reading depraved sex act). If you repeat something often enough people will believe you.
What possible purpose could this serve? After all if the revisionists are obviously liars then wouldn’t it be best to expose them?
Why are people made to feel guilty about reading arguments about facts that happened 60 years ago? All the better to stop you from accessing the facts and reaching your own conclusions.
Mike stated:
Thus, an "intellectual" on his couch can postulate on the horrors that took place, in my opinion trying to prove how much an "intellectual" he is by trying to show he can remove himself from the situation to "analyze it".... LOL...
Are you seriously suggesting that you cannot look back at historic events objectively to determine what actually happened?
The depiction of holocaust “deniers” in the media is very political. Their position is not depicted accurately in the media, they are often depicted as people who even deny the camps existed. However, the facts support their position much more strongly. Again this shows great courage from Mel, on a topic which most people would have shied away from, and should be supported by his fans at this time.
Many Jews were killed in the camps and individual people have horrific stories. However most of the mainstream sources themselves support that tens of thousands of Jews were killed certainly not millions. Many of the prison camp members died from typhus and old age. Disease and starvation took its tool in the camps just as it did in the whole of Germany and Poland.
The official figures for Auschwitz have dropped from 4 million to two million miraculously without any mention in the media. Obviously our media is not telling us everything. Again the official sites support that tens of thousands were murdered in Auschwitz non millions. This site below does a good job of explaining the many special interests groups would have in initiating and maintaining this lie.
I would urge you to compare the official and revisionist sites themselves.

The journey to truth is a fascinating and sometimes a little frightening. After all when you have seen that there is very little truth in the official holocaust story you will find it hard to be able to trust able to trust governments, official historical and media sources ever again.

Note that this particular Holocaust denier begins by writing that he is proud of Mel Gibson. Hmm... Could this be a case of "birds of a feather," or "it takes one to know one"?

Missed this particular piece of blithely intoned dudgeon and guilt by association when I posted last. Me thinks you doth protest (and insist) far too much. It is in fact repeated insistencies and similar acts of odd over-reaching that often do typify claims of accusers who cannot marshall more substantive evidence. Or similarly, as for instance Yourish has done, carefully culling the witnesses she would offer for the prosecution, or serving up an authority (academic) in a manner that purports to represent the "final word" on the matter - dissenters and questioners be damned.
My own heroes vis-a-vis the holocaust and the German resistance are people like Wallenberg, Bonhoeffer and several others. Am firmly in the holocaust-affirming camp, though am beginning to wonder what forms of scrutiny and subsequent accusations might await me at some point in the not so distant future due to a misplaced word or uncarefully chosen phrase.

Michael B,
Thanks for your words of partial support. Although you make the holocaust sound like a religion with the comment:
"Am firmly in the holocaust-affirming camp"
However maybe you are right, holocaust revisionism is the great heresy of the modern age.
Try this revisionist video as an introduction, you can watch it on line or down load it.
