Letters to David Irving on this Website


Unless correspondents ask us not to, this Website will post selected letters that it receives and invite open debate.

Bill Lebovits writing Tuesday, May 3, 2005, would like this website to remove a picture with a strange caption; but we cannot


"Hitler's Typewriter"

The Holocaust industry

Regarding the article on [link] I am an American Jew and as strongly that I know that the Holocaust happened, I also know that it did become an industry for some. My grandfather and grandmother didn't make any money of it, even though they lost their entire families. Some organizations have used the Holocaust as a tool to raise money, that is the case in many places.

We should still learn from history what not to repeat, and nothing bad will happen if we're reminded of what can happen when civilized people become engulfed in hate against others.

Bill Lebovits

P.S. I can imagine that we disagree on many issues, but can you please take off your website that picture (below) of my brother and his friend, who are not holocaust survivors and the caption under that photo is false. Plus this picture has come up in Neo-Nazi sites with some very bad personal hate and threatening notes.

 

David Irving responds:

I AM sorry to hear that. The fault lies not with us for exposing the fraud, but with the fraudulent and irresponsible reporting on "Holocaust survivors" committed by major newspapers (this picture and the original caption were in the New York Post, I believe).
