Representing Deborah Lipstadt in the libel action brought a

NOTE OF course the underlying implication of all this: Deborah Lipstadt did not have the evidence she needed at the time she wrote her lies, despite having canvassed all her pals, the ADL, the Board of Deputies of British Jews, the Institute of Jewish Affairs (who had secretly told newspapers that Mr Irving was behind the Oklahoma City bombing) etc. True historians research first, then write afterwards.

Lipstadt penned her lies first, and peddled them, and only afterwards looked frantically for the evidence that would fit her lies. Some scholar.
