Know Thy Holocaust
House Bill 1059, introduced by Clyde Kersey, D-Terre Haute, requires that all public schools instruct students about the Holocaust, in which 6 million Jews were murdered by the Nazis during WWII.
“I’m a firm believer,” said Kersey, “in the idea that if you don’t learn the lessons of history, you are bound to repeat them.”
Fine, this is not a problem. Future generations should know of this horror. But what of other horrors? Will these same kids be aware that our ally in that war, the Soviet Union, was guilty of slaughtering as many, if not more, of it’s own citizens than the Nazis were? And how many will be aware of America’s treatment of it’s own Japanese-American citizens at that time? I never learned of this in high school.
Although I have no problem with the revelation of historical truth, and it’s import on the future, the political ramifications of this bother me. I cannot help but believe that this is a response to the current Iranian policy of denial, and a desire to prop up our allies in Israel; in effect, to give them the green light for aggression, and to assuage ourselves of the guilt of support for it.
Where do we get off condemning some transgressions of the past, while pardoning or overlooking others completely? Especially considering our own history of race relations? All of these transgressions should be taught, but instead we concentrate on the one that is most palatable and politically correct.

What are they so afraid of? If the facts supporting the ‘holocaust’ claims are there, then laws like this are truly unnecessary, punitive actions against free-inquiry. Facts need no laws to support them. Facts can withstand examination time and again. Throughout history, from Galileo to Zundel, Darwin, Irving, Faurisson and Rudolf, only lies and liars have resorted to the courts & the legislature to enforce adherence to dogma.
People confuse being told something six million times with knowing something. They are not the same. The average man knows’ the Holocaust exists because: 1) everybody uses the term; 2) he has seen photos of stacked bodies; 3) he has read Anne Frank’s book; 4) authorities agree that questioning any of this is ‘hate.’ In other words, the average man believes in the Holocaust for no logical reason, but out of simple mammalian conformity.
‘Holocaust’ is no ordinary noun. Rather, it is a loaded gun leveled at the head of the West and the rest. Give them their money and their pride of place or get your head and reputation blown off. You will notice that never, ever does debate in the captive media condescend to deconstruct the Zionist Privilege embodied in and sanctified by the designer label ‘Holocaust.’ Worship the Zionists and submit to their demands – that is what the term Holocaust means.
A demand for special privilege protected by a shell of pseudo-history; that is an objective description of the term. The heart of the ‘Holocaust,’ taking at face value the term’s pretension to historical designation, is the claim that six million Jews were murdered by Nazi Germany, most of them by gassing. The evidence for the gassing is never discussed. Photos of crematories and bodies stacked like cord wood are shown. No context or explanation of the reason for showing them is given. The connection is to be assumed. But never is any ordinary evidence, let alone proof, of the gassing allegation advanced. That Jews were gassed is treated as though it were already proved and therefore unquestionable, save by the depraved. Thus, the practical job of the media and the well intentioned everyman is to smear and ostracize anybody who argues against settled truth. We all know that Jews were gassed, and that those who say otherwise are deniers driven by hate.
We are told repeatedly that the ‘Holocaust’ is both the worst thing that ever happened and the best documented thing in human history. We are to take these assertions on authority, since no genuine debate is allowed.
There are men who can prove the ‘Holocaust’ is a Big Lie.
You can find them in jail.
Their imprisonment is scarcely mentioned in the mass media. Their imprisonment goes unlamented by the mass columnists. To discuss these men and their work would endanger the Prop-sphere the media construct. They must disappear.
But we know, mass media. And we’re not going away. We’re getting louder and stronger. And there’s nothing you can do to stop us.
Wow.
