IN FACT documents disclosed by Lipstadt under English trial procedures indicated that in her original book draft she had not even mentioned Mr Irving — so much for his being the most “dangerous” on her list. When she submitted the draft to her paymasters, the criminal fraudster Robert Maxwell and Yad Vashem, however, the latter’s Yehuda Bauer wrote back to her regretting that she had not found it necessary to include Mr Irving, and instructed the US
scholar to list him too. By refusing to give testimony in the trial, she was able to evade questioning about her earlier omission.
