Of course, he, himself, disputes this. I don't find that surprising since I've never heard a definition of 'anti-Semite" that included the person constructing the definition. I've heard Mr. Irving speak and read his writings and one theme is constant--Jews. He jokes about them, calls them "The Traditional Enemy," and blames them for many of his personal troubles. Normally, I say--Fine. Go for it, David. You are entitled to feel however you like. But when a writer sets himself up as the arbiter of truth and makes unfounded accusations under the guise of "history," I get my hackles up. He is a self-appointed historian. He should be more objective. -- Nizkor (USA) - An Electronic Holocaust Educational Resource Nizkor Web: http://www.nizkor.org/ Anonymous ftp: http://ftp.nizkor.org/ftp.cgi?

I > direct your attention to the following URL: > > http://www.kaiwan.com/~ihrgreg/misc/definition.html I read your essay, but found it strangely unsatisfying. The bulk of the writing consisted of a collection of 'definitions' of the term "Holocaust"--not particulalry enlightening. You then wrote: BEGIN Finally, the door must be left open to consider the role of Jewish and Zionist leaders. Whether or not they were well-intentioned, actions by the Judenrat, Jewish kapos, and pro-Nazi Zionists that resulted in Jewish deaths must be studied and criticized, just as actions by these groups and others are praised when they resulted in the saving of Jewish lives. END The essential offensiveness of your 'blame the Jews" message is lost on you, I fear, so I won't dwell on it here--Suffice it to say, if the Third Reich had not attacked, Jews would not have had to respond. BEGIN Left undefined, but to be determined by examining the facts within the framework above, is the "why" of the Holocaust. A proposed definition According to the OED, revision is, "The action of revising or looking over again; esp. critical or careful examination or perusal with a view to correcting or improving." Revisionism is defined as, "A term used for a revised attitude to some previously accepted political situation, doctrine, or point of view." A revisionist, then, would be someone who approaches the Holocaust by looking at the facts, putting them in context, and arriving at the "why." An anti-revisionist would be someone who has fixed ideas about why the Holocaust happened, and then finds facts to support that conclusion, usually at the expense of context. Taking into account everything above, I would propose that the term "Holocaust" be defined as: "The mistreatment of Jewish civilians, primarily in Europe, at the hands of the combatants during the Second World War (1939-1945)." END Your 'definition' is so incomplete as to be incomprehensible, Greg. Mistreatment? Primarily in Europe? Combatants? Not even a nice try, Greg. Your long, verbose essay leads up to THIS? Honestly! What a waste. Instead of 'mistreatment' try: the murder of millions of innocent men, woman and children who were--or were thought to be--Jewish or members of other 'unacceptable' ethnic, social and political groups." Instead of "primarily in Europe" try: "Europe and Western Asia". Instead of "combatants" try: "Nazi Third Reich military forces, collaborators and civilians." Which leaves us with: "The murder of millions of innocent men, woman and children who were--or were thought to be--Jewish or members of other 'unacceptable' ethnic, social and political groups primarily in Europe and Western Asia at the hands of the Nazi Third Reich military forces, collaborators and civilians during the Second World War (1939-1945)." > -- Nizkor (USA) - An Electronic Holocaust Educational Resource Nizkor Web: http://www.nizkor.org/ Anonymous ftp: http://ftp.nizkor.org/ftp.cgi?

Well, if you want to play THAT game, "anti-Semitism" "can be" defined as "a sweet baked good made of flour, butter and sugar." Can be so defined, but not accurately. There is a perfectly good definition for the word--one coined, by the way, by a self-described hater of Hebrews (well, that's what they called Jews in England in the 1880's when the word was defined.) Not liking Jewish people--for whatever reason (even believing that they are trying to take over the world) is anti-Semitism. It's not even a judgemental term.

Blackie, are you making this up as you go along? The book says nothing of the sort. It captions a photo pp5: "Market square of the Polish border town of Olkusz, called Ilkenau by the occupation forces. In 1940 some 7,000 Poles and 6,000 Jews were living there. On 16 July 1940 the German Gendarme Ernest Kaddatz was shot by an unknown assailant. In reprisal twenty Jews were publically executed." No bushwacking. Only one assailant. The rest of the chapter consists of photgraphs of the execution process with a description of the torturing of the unfortunate survivors. > > On 31 July the town was surrounded by police units.
