The words for bigotry, that are often used, such as: ant-Semitic, anti-white, anti-black, anti-Arab, anti-feminist, anti-gay and hundreds of other labels, are for the most part overstated. Instead, it should be seen as pro-white, or pro-Jewish or pro-women or pro-traditional family and not be ashamed of it. These “pro” sensibilities are part of the human condition, not to be pathologized into an “anti.” It is about group interests. A race or an ethnie without a sense of peoplehood or ethnichood will end up being used to achieve the goals of other ethnies. (Yes, ethnie, not ethnic). The feelings or thoughts for peoplehood is not a pathology. The European-American will have White ethnic interests and it is not racist to have them. Just as Hispanics, Asians, Jews and Blacks have their own ethnic interests, it should not be a pathology for Whites to have ethnic interests. If you don't agree with Jewish group interests then stop heckling and become a member of: The American Third Position Peace.

According to this analysis, 35% of the wealthiest Americans are Jews, while Jews, according to their own estimates comprise merely 1.7% of the population. This means that Jews are grossly over-represented in the wealthiest category by a factor of over 20 times (35 / 1.7) or 2,000%! This combined with their over-representation in the media and academia makes a convincing argument for their elite status and helps explain their power and influence. When this power and influence is used to advocate policies that are detrimental to the non-Jewish population, it legitimizes a focused analysis of Jewish behavior. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 The best reason for playing down Auschwitz is that the official account of “industrialized mass murder” there is so forensically flimsy, confused and contradictory. Not one authentic photograph or film of gas chambers in action, not one German document or decoded intercept unambiguously referring to them being used other than for fumigation, ceaseless rethinking among “respectable” historians about when, whereabouts and how many died that way… no amount of last-ditch lawmaking can prevent this argument breaking out time and again. In 1946 it was deposed at the Nuremberg trials that 4m people were killed at Auschwitz. The official, keep-you-out-of-jail figure gradually came down to 1.6m, then 1.1m, and latterly a German researcher has counted under 500,000 without being hauled into court. So did the late Jean-Claude Pressac. Employed by a French Jewish foundation to refute the objections of those pesky revisionists or “deniers”, he ended up more than half agreeing with them and saying that there was no categorical, final proof of mass gassing, only “criminal traces”, Moreover, because Asia carries no baggage about the Shoah, its young historians will be able to look at this tangle of atrocity stories and garbled rumours with a cold eye. The Auschwitz-Birkenau killing-machine narrative originated among those fearless defenders of truth, the propaganda department of the Red Army. It is time we stopped being intimidated by it and the layers of pseudo-pious kitsch that surround it. And as for Treblinka…Read DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look at Both Sides by Thomas Dalton. 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 FREE Chapters and Contents for New Book: DebatingTheHolocaust com DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look At Both Sides by Thomas Dalton, PhD Publisher's Note: This is a non-Revisionist title for Theses & Dissertations Press.

Our parents’ generation, with their memories of dramatic postwar newsreels, thought primarily of Belsen and Dachau, and most of them are probably still unaware that even exterminationists have long since abandoned any suggestion of mass gassings there. Our generation has (in a process which began in the early 1960s but intensified from the 1970s) been browbeaten by the image of Auschwitz as the ultimate death factory. Now we must look further east again. Though for our schoolchildren Auschwitz remains at the centre of the legend, scholars are now relying on the Reinhardt camps. Signficantly Snyder talks of bullets, and when he mentions gas it is carbon monoxide not Zyklon B. It is surely significant that a long article by a mainstream scholar headlined Holocaust: The Ignored Reality does not mention at all the traditional image of Zyklon B gas chambers. — Michael Santomauro, Publisher of Amazon's new book: DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look At Both Sides by Thomas Dalton 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Sample Chapters and Contents for New Book: http://www.DebatingTheHolocaust.com DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look At Both Sides by Thomas Dalton, PhD Publisher's Note: This is a non-Revisionist title for Theses & Dissertations Press.

Historians not only study historical facts, interpret them, study the pattern, but also examine and check for its accuracy and truth etc, together with the help of archaeologists. The invention of internet forum (bulletin board system) such as the one we are using now, is transforming the way we share information across the internet and the world. It literally makes our discussion more fruitful as we are able to see different views and information from different people. It offer us an insight into how a simple fact can be interpreted differently by different people from different country, culture and languages.

Michael Santomauro Editorial Director Call: 917-974-6367 ReporterNotebook@Gmail.com 2012-02-09T;22:54:00-05:00 Hello Mr. Bruce Rosen, The Nation magazine, The New York Review of Books,The New York Times Book Review section and every Catholic and Jewish publication have refused paid advertisements for the promotion of this academic book. Why? The fact that it is, a balanced examination of the Holocaust narrative, is the problem. Can you help rectify this problem? The notion that there has been academic debate in the United States is COMPLETELY untrue--WHERE? The publishing company CAN'T EVEN PLACE AN AD for this book in a college newspaper! At one time, in nations where the war took place it was heavily debated. Until Israel pressured European countries to pass Holocaust Denial Laws in the early 1980's. Then in 1986, Israel was the first country, in the world, to make it illegal to re-examine the story. Why? Many scholars and survivors, in Israel, (and I have met them) did not agree with the narrative. Then starting in 1989 the following nations passed the same Holocaust Denial Laws as in Israel: Austria (article 3h Verbotsgesetz 1947), Belgium (Belgian Negationism Law), the Czech Republic under section 261, France (Loi Gayssot), Germany (§ 130 (3) of the penal code) also the Auschwitzlüge law section 185, Lithuania, The Netherlands under articles 137c and 137e, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain and Switzerland (article 261bis of the Penal Code). In addition, as I stated before, under Law 5710-1950 it is also illegal in Israel. There is no other historical event that has laws to protect it from debate. I have had threats on my life for proposing open debate. I have had the JDO, an off shoot of the JDL, which is still listed (the JDO) as a terrorist organization by the FBI, demonstrate in front of my home. A month ago, I have been kicked out of my membership at a high-end gym in Manhattan because of my work. This professor, who wrote the most powerful book on the subject, does not have tenure yet and needs to use a pen name. Look what happened to professor Norman Finkelstein, the author of, The Holocaust Industry. Because I am the publisher of this very important book, I can not travel to Israel or the other nations mentioned above without getting arrested and sent to jail. I can't even sell this book to these nations! This book is BANNED in countries that have hate laws like in Canada. Should the current Federal Hate Law legislation pass the United States Congress, which every major Jewish organization favors, I and others can or will be put in jail or fined for publishing DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look At Both Sides...because you and millions of other Americans have been brainwashed to think that if you question the Holocaust it is a form of hate. If you question Zionism it is a form a hate. If you question the Talmud it is a form of hate These Federal Hate Laws will protect the Jewish community from an honest debate. I am convinced that the unexamined Holocaust narrative, is used as weapon. And it is the most powerful expression of Jewish power. Most Americans and that includes Jewish-Americans don't understand how much they don't know about the other side of the debate, how could they? the scholars in Israel can't read this book. It is BANNED in Israel! Please sample the chapters and contents for the new book: DEBATING THE HOLOCAUST: A New Look At Both Sides by Thomas Dalton, PhD : http://www.DebatingTheHolocaust.com Peace.
