Tenth-grader Jessica has been set a paper to write on Elie Wiesel, and inquires on Friday, February 1, 2002

What can you tell me about Wiesel and Holocaust debunkers? 

I AM a 10th grade Honors English II student. About two months ago, my teacher assigned an independent reading project that included writing a research paper afterwards. The guidelines of the paper were pretty simple: choose a topic that is related to the book you read that involves a major controversy. I read the book, Night by Elie Wiesel, (left) and so the topic that I chose to write my research paper on was Holocaust Denial.

In order to write a good research paper with a detailed controversy, you must know both sides of your controversy. In order to do this: I decided that I need to get my information directly from the sources: You and Mr. Bradley Smith. I have done a little bit of research on you and Bradley R. Smith, but not enough to know your true opinions. What I would like to know from you is why you believe that the Holocaust is a hoax. Some sources that I have read say that it is because of your Anti-Semitic beliefs, do you consider yourself Anti-Semitic? If so, what caused these feelings? Also, feel free to tell me anything else that may aid me in writing this paper.

David Irving replies:

I AM interested to hear you're researching that old fraud and liar Elie Wiesel. Have a look at my very scant index on him and have a look at my index on Auschwitz. For general background on my views, rummage around my website. You can try having a look at my books -- they are free downloads at http://www.fpp.co.uk/books

You will find all you need at these addresses on my website:

• the Lipstadt trial pleadings are on my Lipstadt index at
• the judgment or download it direct or use the official html version of the judgment, but you will find my print version easier to follow.
• the daily Lipstadt trial transcripts
• You may find our appeal pleadings of particular interest.

If you will send me a mail address I will mail to you the print version of my 5 hour closing speech which will tell you the rest; if you have specific questions, and I underline "specific", come back to me by email!
