And you felt the need to share this because?

I didn't even know who he was until you mentioned him.

ACK!

On a visit to Austria, Irving was apprehended, tried and convicted of "glorifying and identifying with the German Nazi Party", which is a crime in Austria under the Verbotsgesetz law. He served a prison sentence from February to December 2006 on the charges.

What's with Germans and hating freedom?

Sadly, loin, a lot of people have doubts about the Holocaust in the West. The number that's popping in to my head is 25% of Americans have doubts about the Holocaust. I think we had a Poly thread on this a few years ago. It doesn't mesh with my personal experience, but I have met people who thought that the Holocaust was made up.

They start by throwing facts at you which make you have doubts. For example, prussic blue is a compound that results from a combination of hydrogen cyanide combines with iron. It is claimed that there isn't enough prussic blue in the walls of the death chambers to prove that it was used. They claim that it wasn't a sufficient amount of hydrogen cyanide because it takes a certain amount of the chemical to kill lice, and at that level, there would be extensive prussic blue in the walls.

Well all that is actually true. So, a rational person, hearing scientific proof that there wasn't enough of the chemical to kill an insect would then wonder about whether or not what they had been told about the Holocaust was true. Of course, humans are 1600 times more sensitive to cyanide than insects (which is why it's not used as a insecticide).

Once you start doubting, once you believe you were lied to, you're much easier to manipulate.

Wow - the low deceptive techniques Holocaust deniers will stoop to using is unbelievable.

[newwebstar]

Counter-protest by denying the existence of Holocaust deniers.

Protesting him only serves his purposes.

[BariGrootrego]

I agree with Wezil - we're not talking about an "R" rated film, but real history.

Protesting him only serves his purposes.

If it served his purpose, he wouldn't hide the events. You have to register and then they check you out to see if they think you're one of them or not.

Remember, cockroaches don't like the light.

Constant reminders is the best defense of it never happening again.
But if you gaze at the subcontinent, it continues.

Remember, cockroaches don't like the light. Its obviously not secret seeing as they have publically posted the dates and locations. The fact that they screen participants is no different than any Democratic Congressmen's town hall meeting

In any case, these people feed off the opposition they get because it lets them perpetuate the us vs them notion. The best thing to do is recognize thier stupidity and snicker amoungst ourselves while ignoring them. Just like we do so successfully to Communists.

Yep.
