Mr. Raven has his timetable slightly confused.  The call for a boycott
of German products was a reaction to the Third Reich's mistreatment of
German Jews, not vice versa.  In fact, German Jews opposed the boycott
for fear of exacerbating an already bad situation.

    Mr. Raven has repeatedly dodged the question of what evidence proves 
that a thing _was_ a functional Nazi gas chamber, a photo _is_ a photo of 
a functional Nazi homicidal gas chamber rather than just some random 
room, a drawing or plan _is_ a genuine plan of one, not a Soviet forgery 
or an innocent room which someone has falsely called a gas chamber.  He 
has also dodged the question of what standard of proof is to be used.

    Note that Mr. Raven ignored the word "essentially."  Note that he

    Mr. Raven provides no examples, only insinuation.

    Mr. Raven's own intellectual dishonesty in this regard has been 
thoroughly exposed.  Specifically, he has taken quotes from Arno Mayer 
out of context, used quotes from Deborah Lipstadt and Christopher 
Browning out of context, altered a quote from Himmler to make it more 
favorable, and paraphrased a comment by Pressac in a totally distorted 
and dishonest manner.  All of these have been previously posted; if anyone
wishes to see the evidence again, just ask.

Timerman points out in his book, The Longest War. He reports that many
Israelis, using the word Shoah, which is Hebrew for Holocaust, joke that
"There's no business like Shoah business." (note 14)

    This is false, and this has been explained before.  The speech was 
presented as proof of a policy of killing Jews, period.  Why this was 
done is explained below one more time.

    Well, I have two problems with *this* part of what you say.  First, I
myself have never believed that there was, as you put it, "a plan to
exterminate millions of Jews in homicidal gas chambers."  I don't know
anyone who does.  I believe there was an intent formulated by specific
Nazis at the highest levels of the German government (who thus had the
power to see that the intent was carried out, and used that power to that
end) to exterminate millions of Jews.  Gassing in fixed installations -
what can fairly be called gas chambers, some of which used Zyklon-B and
some of which used CO - was adopted as one means by some people involved
in carrying out the plan.  Others involved in carrying out the plan used
shooting, starvation, mobile CO gassing vans, burning alive, bayoneting -
whatever happened to be convenient to get the job done.  So you are
setting up a strawman. 




    Note that previously, Greg Raven asserted that there was no policy of 
exterminating Jews _at all_.  The Himmler speech is one of many pieces of 
evidence to the contrary, and was only presented as such.  Raven's 
attempts to claim that it was intended as proof of gas chambers as well 
is false, and by now he should know it is false.  However, I cannot prove 
he is lying, since he frequently claims never to have seen articles (and 
deletes email copies of articles unread, or claims to, in order to 
preserve his ability to claim that he never saw the refutation of his 
falsehoods).

Dear Mr. Raven:

	I have been following "alt.revisionism" for some time now.  So 
far, it seems that you are one of the most intelligent and reasonable 
"revisionists" posting here.  I deplore the constant bickering and 
name-calling which is a staple of this newsgroup (and am the first to 
admit that the "exterminationists" can be as guilty of this as the rest) 
and would like to see, for a change, a little _reasoned_ discussion.  

	With that in mind, here are a few questions.  While I am 
addressing them to you, I am aware that there are differences among 
revisionists.  You can't (and probably wouldn't want to!) speak for 
everyone, but I would be interested in your personal opinion on these 
matters.

	1) Revisionists seem to believe that the commonly accepted death 
figures for the Holocaust (around 6 million Jews, about that many 
non-Jewish "undesirables") are exaggerated.  What, based on your 
estimates, would be a more accurate figure? I'm not asking for an exact 
number, mind you... merely a general estimate.  If you could include the 
reasons you would feel this number is more accurate that the "Six 
Million" figure, I'd appreciate it.

	2) The pre-war Jewish population of Poland is estimated at 
anywhere between 2 million and 3.5 million.  Today's Jewish population of 
Poland is only a few thousand.  Do you have any idea where all these Jews 
went, if they were not killed?  (You will forgive me for stating that I 
find the "they're all behind the Iron Curtain" argument to be somewhat 
less than convincing, especially as none of them have shown up now that 
the Iron Curtain has fallen).

	3) You've said that some Rabbis welcomed the Nuremburg Laws, as 
they prohibited intermarriage.  Can you give me some specific examples of 
this? (i.e. some quotes from some Rabbinical organizations)

	4) I've gathered (and again, correct me if I'm wrong) that you 
feel the stories of Nazi atrocities against Jews were overstated.  What, 
in your best estimation, _was_ life like for a Jew living in World War II 
Europe?  The "conventional wisdom" suggests that it was very hard indeed; 
can you give me an example of some Jews who went through the war 
suffering no more than, say, their Gentile neighbors?

	I apologize for not having researched this matter more fully; 
unfortunately, present constraints on my time and lack of a Web Browser 
(I suspect I'm the only person in cyberspace who's still using a 286!) 
make this difficult.  

	Again, thank you for your time, and have a good day.

	(posted and E-mailed)

Peace
Kevin Filan

Your information about the IHR is as faulty as your information about
Holocaust extermination claims. Scientologists are not in control -- firm
or otherwise -- of the IHR.

I'm certainly glad to hear you say that, Mr. Raven. May I assume
then that neither you nor Mr. Weber are, as reported elsewhere,

Have you considered actually reading Hilberg's or Dawidowicz's books,
in which they explain in detail how they derived their figures, or would
that be too much trouble?

The full story behind the closing of Marco Polo magazine can be found in
the March/April Journal of Historical Review. Anyone wishing to get
background information on this incident can get a 30-page documentation
package from the IHR in exchange for a $20 donation.

Don't be so disingenuous, offering an incomplete count of camp
registrations as an upper-bound on the number of deaths in that camp
is flawed evidence for the reason described.

He wasn't trying to prove anything, per se, the person who offered the
camp registration numbers was trying to prove something. He just
pointed out that the evidence offered was crap (to make that
particular point, it might be useful in some other context.) And it
is.

Rather than an upper-bound it would seem to suggest evidence towards
some lower-bound. Quite a different thing.

For someone who makes his entire living off of disputing evidence, and
with virtually none of your own, this was a pretty cheap shot even for
you.

No. Don Van Handel quoted the camp registrations as if they were meaningful in 
and of themselves.  I assert only that by themselves they prove nothing about 
the numbers of victims.

Nevertheless, I assume that you, as a professional historian for the IHR, are 
aware of the more important studies of the Holocaust and the resources used to 
arrive at the numbers that they do.  Among these resources are the SS reports 
on the activities of the Einsatzgruppen, the Korherr report, the records of the 
transports to the extermination camps, and census information.

On the matter of census information, I note in passing that I have taken
on the task of marking up the IHR's "66 Questions and Answers" for Ken
McVay's forthcoming Nizkor web pages. Perhaps you could explain how it is
that you assert in question 1 that there are no credible demographic 
statistics for the numbers of Jews in Nazi-controlled Europe, yet in question 
15 you assert, in one version of the questions, that there were less than 
4 million and, in another version, that there were less than 6 million. Are 
we to assume from this that you have used *in*credible demographic statistics?
Or are we to assume that you have found that there are some useful demographic 
statistics upon which to base an estimate of the numbers of victims?

	A good question.  I too am curious as to how these estimates can 
be drawn.  I suspect you could use the records of Jews "deported" from 
various areas into the camps, and compare this with the number of camp 
"survivors" after liberation.  However, there may be other ways, and I 
look forward to hearing them from the members of this group.

	While we're on the subject, here are a few other questions: you 
were probably busy and missed them last time, so I can repost them.

	1) Prior to World War II, there was a large Jewish population in
Poland.  (Estimates range from 2.5 to 3.5 million).  Today the Jewish
population of Poland is only a few thousands.  Where did these Jews go? 
(One wag suggested "New York and Miami Beach;" I posted the U.S.
immigration figures for 1936-45 and showed that would be an 
impossibility.  Another correspondent of mine suggested they are in 
Argentina: since there are only 350,000 Jews in Argentina, I think we 
will have to look elsewhere).

	The most common response is that they are all "behind the Iron 
Curtain."  The Iron Curtain no longer exists... why have not these Jews 
come forward en masse? What is your explanation for this "lack of Jews" 
in Poland?

	2) You've stated that some Rabbis welcomed the Nuremburg laws 
because they prohibited intermarriage.  Could you give me some citation 
which suggests this? I'm not saying by any means that you are wrong; it's 
merely that this seems somewhat unusual to me.  

	3) I've gathered you think Nazi excesses against the Jews have 
been exaggerated.  (Please correct me if I'm wrong).  If so, what do you 
think is a _true_ example of Jewish life in World War II Europe? What 
would a typical Jewish family living in the Reich have gone through 
during the period 1936-1945? 

	4) What to you would constitute "physical evidence" that a 
drawing of a gas chamber was indeed a drawing of a gas chamber, that a 
photo of a gas chamber was indeed genuine, or that a room had in fact 
been used for gassing "undesirables" and not for delousing? 

	5) What is your opinion of the various neo-Nazis and anti-Semites 
who have begun supporting the cause of "Holocaust revisionism?" 

	I await your response (and the response of other Revisionists 
here) and wish you a happy Easter.

Peace
Kevin Filan

 A fellow named Marcellus, an Feild Staff member for the Cof$, worked his
way into the confidence of Willis Carto, the Chairman of liberty lobby, which
ran the IHR. Marcellus spent 13 years gaining Willis' confidence. Marcellus
brought some friends into IHR who were member of Cof$. At an opportune point
in the litigion surrounding control of IHR, Marcellus offerred himself as
a 'disinterested' party who could be named in control of IHR, as a caretaker
whilst the court concluded its business. In a blink of the eye, Marcellus
went from trusted friend of Mr Carto, to enemy, as he took control of IHR
for someones ends... -  Is it just circumstantial that Marcellus was a
Scientologist, a Field Staff Member, or was MArcellus acting as a mole for
another octupus like group - the OSA of the Cof$?

Marcellus's known involement with Cof$ created a need for him to very 
recently 'publicly resign from IHR'...

But what about his buddies?


The whole scene here stinks of OSA tactics..


But then, this is only this observers opinion.


Truth becomes quite malleable in the hands of those adept at PR manipulation.
