- Britain is opposing European moves to make denying or
trivialising Nazi atrocities a criminal offence.
-
- Proposals by Brussels would make racism and xenophobia
serious crimes in Britain for the first time, carrying a prison sentence
of two years or more.
-
- Europe wants to harmonise laws before a new arrest warrant
comes into force in 2004. This will allow police to send citizens of the
15 member states for trial anywhere in the EU without old-style extradition
procedures.
-
- Among the crimes for which the warrant would be issued
are racism and xenophobia. But these do not exist as specific offences
in Britain or in some other EU states.
-
- The draft plans define racism and xenophobia as an aversion
to individuals based on "race, colour, descent, religion or belief,
national or ethnic origin".
-
- An offence of "public denial or trivialisation of
the crimes dealt with by the international military tribunal established
in 1945" is also proposed.
-
- Holocaust denial laws are in place in seven countries,
including Germany, France and Austria. But they would be a big departure
for Britain, where a risk of fomenting public disorder is needed before
a thought becomes a crime.
-
- Before the 1997 election, Tony Blair said there was "a
very strong case" for a holocaust denial law. But the Government has
told the Commons European scrutiny committee that Britain is opposed to
the creation of such an offence.
-
- Angela Eagle, a Home Office minister, said: "Whilst
we recognise the significant degree of offence that this kind of material
causes to many people, particularly the Jewish community, the Government
does not support the idea of an absolute offence."
-
- She said the Government also opposed the proposed extent
of the law. It could cover many stand-up comedians and even Anne Robinson,
who said on BBC television that she regarded the Welsh as "irritating".
-
- The proposals need the unanimous support of the 15 states,
so Britain can veto them if further negotiations fail to meet its objections.
There have been several prosecutions in Europe in the past few years for
holocaust denial.
-
- In Germany a historian who claimed that Auschwitz prisoners
enjoyed cinemas, a swimming pool and brothels was sentenced to 10 months
in jail; and an American served three years of a four-year sentence for
distributing anti-holocaust material.
-
- In 1991 the controversial historian David Irving, who
lost a High Court libel action two years ago, was fined by a German court
for breaking holocaust denial laws and "defaming the memory of the
dead".

-
- Hi Jeff, I am from London England and read your article
about Tony Blair doing a U-turn of the EU law on Holocaust Denail. I think
Tony Blair has made the right decision.
-
- There are so many unanswered questions on whether the
Gas chambers did or did not exist, I feel the Jewish Heirarchy have something
to hide.
-
- Why is the Anti-Semite word quickly thrown at people
like me who question anything that involves Jews?
-
- Whilst at secondary school in the mid 80's, I was shown
all the horrible effects of the second world war, and told about the ways
Jews were "Gassed" then burnt in the furnaces. It turned my stomach.
-
- As the years went on, I never thought to question what
happened to the Jews during the war, until a friend mentioned the word
"Revisionist". When I asked him what it was, he told me, they
were people who denied the Gas chambers at Auschwitz and other camps. So
I looked on the internet for information regarding Revisionism and found
plenty.
-
- After spending several months going through the information,
I was becomming convinced that all I had learnt in school about the gassing
of the Jews, was a lie.
-
- One question that bisturbs me is, did six million Jews
really die or was the sum exageratted for propaganda purposes?
-
- I am not saying that a Holocaust never happened because
there is NO doubt that there was a Holocaust but what I do question is,
were there really gas chambers used against the Jews during the war?
-
- I believe there is only one solution to solve this question,
that is to have an open LIVE debate from a neutral conuntry with "Revisionist"
on one side and the Jewish historians on the other. Both can lay thier
arguemants out for the world to see and then the decision can be made wether
or not the gas chamber stories are real or if they were used as propaganda.
-
- But I can't see this ever happening for one simple FACT
that cannot be denied: The Mass Media is Jewish controlled, especially
in the West.
-
- But I can live in HOPE that one day, it will be debated,
so that the questions can be cleared up once and for all.
-
- For anyone who wants to read through some "Revisionism"
work, I have listed a few good links below, for your viewers to go through,
to unravel the mystry of the gas chambers.

- Did Six Million Really Die?
-
- By Richard E. Harwood
-
- Introduction
-
- Of course, atrocity propaganda is nothing new. It has
accompanied every conflict of the 20th century and doubtless will continue
to do so. During the First World War, the Germans were actually accused
of eating Belgian babies, as well as delighting to throw them in the air
and transfix them on bayonets.
-
- The British also alleged that the German forces were
operating a "Corpse Factory," in which they boiled down the bodies
of their own dead in order to obtain glycerine and other commodities, a
calculated insult to the honour of an Imperial army.
-
- After the war, however, came the retractions; indeed,
a public statement was made by the Foreign Secretary in the House of Commons
apologising for the insults to German honour, which were admitted to be
war-time propaganda.
-
- No such statements have been made after the Second World
War. In fact, rather than diminish with the passage of years, the atrocity
propaganda concerning the German occupation, and in particular their treatment
of the Jews, has done nothing but increase its virulence, and elaborate
its catalogue of horrors.
-
- Gruesome paperback books with lurid covers continue to
roll from the presses, adding continuously to a growing mythology of the
concentration camps and especially to the story that no less than Six Million
Jews were exterminated in them.
-
- The ensuing pages will reveal this claim to be the most
colossal piece of fiction and the most successful of deceptions; but here
an attempt may be made to answer an important question:
-
- What has rendered the atrocity stories of the Second
World War so uniquely different from those of the First?
-
- Why were the latter retracted while the former are reiterated
louder than ever?
-
- Is it possible that the story of the Six Million Jews
is serving a political purpose, even that it is a form of political blackmail?
-
- So far as the Jewish people themselves are concerned,
the deception has been an incalculable benefit. Every conceivable race
and nationality had its share of suffering in the Second World War, but
none has so successfully elaborated it and turned it to such great advantage.
-
- The alleged extent of their persecution quickly aroused
sympathy for the Jewish national homeland they had sought for so long;
after the War the British Government did little to prevent Jewish emigration
to Palestine which they had declared illegal, and it was not long afterwards
that the Zionists wrested ftom the Government the land of Palestine and
created their haven from persecution, the State of Israel. Indeed, it is
a remarkable fact that the Jewish people emerged from the Second World
War as nothing less than a triumphant minority.
-
- Dr. Max Nussbaum, the former chief rabbi of the Jewish
community in Berlin, stated on April 11, 1953: "The position the Jewish
people occupy today in the world -- despite the enormous losses -- is ten
times stronger than what it was twenty years ago." It should be added,
if one is to be honest, that this strength has been much consolidated financially
by the supposed massacre of the Six Million, undoubtedly the most profitable
atrocity allegation of all time.
-
- To date, the staggering figure of six thousand million
pounds has been paid out in compensation by the Federal Government of West
Germany, mostly to the State of Israel (which did not even exist during
the Second World War), as well as to individual Jewish claimants.
-
-
- DISCOURAGEMENT OF NATIONALISM
-
-
- In terms of political blackmail, however, the allegation
that Six Million Jews died during the Second World War has much more far-reaching
implications for the people of Britain and Europe than simply the advantages
it has gained for the Jewish nation.
-
- And here one comes to the crux of the question:
-
- Why the Big Lie?
-
- What is its purpose?
-
- In the first place, it has been used quite unscrupulously
to discourage any form of nationalism. Should the people of Britain or
any other European country attempt to assert their patriotism and preserve
their national integrity in an age when the very existence of nation-states
is threatened, they are immediately branded as "neo-Nazis".
-
- Because, of course, Nazism was nationalism, and we all
know what happened then -- Six Million Jews were exterminated!
-
- So long as the myth is perpetuated, peoples everywhere
will remain in bondage to it; the need for international tolerance and
understanding will be hammered home by the United Nations until nationhood
itself, the very guarantee of freedom, is abolished.
