Interview with Deborah Lipstatic - "Holocaust Denial is Pervasive, Growing, and Doomed"
November 22, 2009, CNN
by Michael K. Smith
New York City -- Speaking from the Bellevue psychiatric ward, where she is undergoing evaluation for advanced schizophrenia, Holocaust Confirmer Deborah Lipstatic today declared, "The situation is critical and victory is at hand," in the war on Holocaust heresy.
Lipstatic, Professor of Victimology at Coca Cola University in Atlanta, insisted that Holocaust denial is not a legitimate field of study and entirely worthless intellectually, which, she said, explains why she devotes herself night and day to refuting its claims.
This year marks nine years since historian David Irving lost his libel suit against Lipstatic, who chronicled her battle against him in her book, “Money Can't Buy Love But It Can Buy The Courts - How I Single-Handedly Defeated David Irving With Swarms of Lawyers and Researchers and an Avalanche of Holocaust Industry Cash" (Orthodox Books, 2000).
Legalienate's editors were generously granted a lengthy interview with her on the recently proclaimed Holocaust Obsession Day, which lasts for 24 weeks instead of what Lipstatic called the "stingy" 24 hours of the standard day. Speaking from the isolated back ward where she currently resides, she explained how to make failure look like victory, why freedom requires adherence to a single view, and how Holocaust denial plays a crucial role in forging Jewish identity, especially among gentiles.
LEGALIENATE: Nine years later, how would you characterize the Irving trial?
LIPSTATIC: It was a resounding victory for the world inside my head. I went head-to-head with the world's leading Holocaust denier and I single-handedly won a judgment stating that historical facts are not to be determined by the courts.
LEGALIENATE: But wasn't that obvious from the beginning?
LIPSTATIC: Not to me it wasn't.
LEGALIENATE: Have you solved the problem of Holocaust denial?
LIPSTATIC: Of course not. But we did provide precise explanations proving that what Deniers say are complete deviations from what we say. We didn't prove what happened, and nobody else better either, but [....]

Hi Bradley. Some things never change, including your incessant denial of Holocaust facts. Each passing day, more data is released confirming the fact that millions of innocent Jewish men, women and children were systematically exterminated by Nazi Germany. Virtually every PhD historian will stake their career upon these facts.
ReplyDeleteHolocaust denial is therefore "truth denial." Thousands of thesis and dissertation papers reach the conclusion that millions of innocent Jews were murdered, in order to create a “racially pure, Aryan Europe.” The majority of data confirming this comes directly from captured German war documents (http://go.footnote.com/holocaust_records/). Thousands of researchers cannot be wrong. The vast majority of historians cannot be wrong. You may quibble about whether the total number of murdered Jews was 5 million or 6 million. We know for certain that at least 1.5 million Jews were murdered at Auschwitz-Birkenau alone. Add to that the millions murdered at Dachau, Sobibor, Belzek, Treblinka, Mauthausen, Bergen-Belsen, etc.
Holocaust denial is truth denial. Millions of doctoral historians are not wrong. Nazi Germany declared war on every Jew in Europe. They managed to annihilate two thirds of Europe’s Jews (6 million).
Thankfully, today, Holocaust denial is NOT growing. Almost every public school classroom around the world (except for Muslim-dominated countries), teaches the true facts of the Holocaust. In the future, only the tiniest minority will fabricate lies about the Shoah. Each generation is more tolerant than the preceding generation. Our progeny will certainly abhor lies about the fact that millions of Jews were murdered by Nazi Germany.
