"Don't tread on me!" "Give me Liberty or give me Death!"
"Live Free or Die!"
Platitudes? Lip service to a cause? NO! These were the
convictions of people who knew what was just and right and
who were willing to die to ensure such justice and rights
-- who were willing to die for freedom -- for a fledgling
British colony 224 years ago. Would you like to have a sample
of how those convictions have been watered down, distorted
and corrupted by the professorial class and the media in
the freest nation on earth?
Contrast the words of our founding fathers with these
responses to an article one
of our new writers wrote supporting intellectual freedom
and free inquiry regarding the Holocaust. Her name is
MacKenzie Paine and she forwarded to us the most illustrative
tid-bits. (I will abbreviate the foul language).
Brian Scribe of the Antelope Daily Press
in California wrote: "I would appreciate, no make that DEMAND,
that you remove me from your e-mail list IMMEDIATELY. I
do not want to see, read or deal with any more of your revisonist
(sic) garbage. You make me sick." Ron Fineman, a Los Angeles
based radio talk show host: "Please take the email you sent
me and shove it up your sick bigoted a__. Don't ever email
me again."
Herbert Rosenblum wrote clearly: "F_ _ _ _ YOU YOU BUNCH
OF A_ _ HOLES." We don't even have Mr. Rosenblum on our
email list, so we're not sure what part of academia or the
media he belongs to.
Another talk show host, Andy Bloom, had this to say:
"Listen you scumbag...take me off your mailing list."
"Please do not send me any more of this filth. You ignore
facts and proof that exist still today so that we do not
forget the atrocities of Nazi Germany. Because you clearly
harbor anti-Semetic (sic) feelings you are blinded to reality."
This was sent to MacKenzie by another well-informed radio
talk show host, Lee Cameron.
Steve Jewett, a communications professor at the University
of Eastern Washington: "I would appreciate you taking me
off your mailing list and ceasing from distributing this
completely fallacious material. I have met individuals who
personally witnessed the death camps and have visited one
myself. Your unwillingness to accept well-proven fact is
pathetic and dangerous." Damian Hey, professor at Hofstra
University: "Get a life, you idiot."
Ronald Coons, professor of history at the University
of Connecticut: "I find your message highly offensive and
wish never to receive another such Email from you -- or
anyone like you, for that matter. As a modern European historian
with some expertise in this field, I am appalled at your
rantings, which are not worthy of discussion. Hate is ugly,
and it consumes the hater, as your message suggests." Where
I come from, these are fighting words, but these grown men
won't fight. So -- this is what I have to say to them. GET
OUT OF OUR WAY! If you can't engage in some healthy dialogue,
then you should stay under the porch where you belong! We
are going to honor the principles upon which this country
was established and we are going to exercise our rights
provided therein. We are going to shout from the rooftops!
We are going to spread our message of intellectual freedom
and free historical inquiry across the World Wide Web.
We have stepped up our email campaign to include Catholic
universities and the international press. We are going to
engage our youth in scholarly and moral debate, with or
without the help of establishment media and a frightened
and self-absorbed professorial class! We are going to do
so because ours is a great and free nation and we want to
keep it that way.
We are going to do it for ourselves, for Germans, for
Palestinians and, finally, for ALL who suffered during World
War Two and who today suffer the indignities of violence,
terror, censorship and estrangement. We are going to do
it in the name of liberty and justice. And we are going
to forge ahead with the dignity, eloquence and sense of
responsibility that our forbears deemed vital.
While there are those in our current society who would
see us returned to the darkness of the Middle Ages, there
are also those of us who demand freedom, truth and civil
discourse. And we aren't going away. In fact, our numbers
are growing. While the smattering of professors and media
personalities quoted above, and a handful of others, were
obviously intellectually terrified, about the same number
sent us notes of appreciation and encouragement. All of
the rest of the more than two thousand recipients of our
article have remained quiet. Could they be waiting? Could
they be watching with interest?
The message that MacKenzie sent hit hard on the illegalities
of the war crimes trials, but not one law professor -- from
Harvard, Yale, Stanford or any other school across America
-- cried foul and demanded to be taken off our email list.
Among the professors who asked to be removed from our mailing
list, none were from the Ivy League or top ranked universities.
Out of hundreds of feature writers, only two have asked
to be removed from out list. Knowing how liberal the establishment
press is, this last statistic is probably the most surprising
-- and the most exciting. Could it be that this issue has
finally gotten their attention? Could it be that the terrible
struggle endured by revisionists for the past 40 years is
finally going to pay off? Have revisionists doggedly pursued
civil discourse and open debate with such perseverance that
the Industry can no longer hold back the tide? Will these
columnists, journalists and professors join us, when the
time is right, to take the Industry down?
I have joined the fray with a clear conscience and willing
spirit. Bradley Smith and CODOH have given me an opportunity
to express myself, and now my friend MacKenzie Paine is
stretching her wings through ongoing discussions with students
and professors. Without Bradley, without CODOH, my voice
in the debate with the Holocaust Industry would be like
most others -- limited to my own kitchen table or family
gatherings. With CODOH, we ALL have a voice -- a very strong
voice that has the Industry shrieking. While those who prefer
darkness cower under the porch, we shall all stand tall,
together - and we shall prevail in the name of freedom!
Don't tread on us!
