Comparing the lie of a “Holocaust that never was” to false claims of a holocaust on the Palestinians.
Tied for second place in Iran’s recent “Holocaust, What Holocaust?” cartoon contest is Frenchwoman Françoise Pichard, who goes by the pen-name of Chard. Except there’s one problem - she didn’t place the entry. Her ideological base-point is the branch of fascism that Europeans associate with the extreme-right, in spite of its’ authoritarian bent, and lack of belief in economic and individual freedom that Marxism is based on. For what some observers have concluded is racism, she has it in for Muslims as well as Jews.
(Inscription: Myth of the gas chambers)“...Who knocked it over?..."
"...Faurisson...”
Robert Faurisson, a man trying to make the intellectual environment safe for Nazism, tried to form a conclusion that the Shoah was a myth based on “evidence” gathered decades later of not seeing any gaskets on the hatches of the gas chambers, but apparently for his writings, only insofar, I suppose, as those doors were
not sealing in Jews, since such a denial wouldn’t just be able to explain 6 million missing European Jews, but millions of others including the Roma. He has been
publicly defended by none other than Pol Pot defender
Noam Chomsky.
Of the contest, Françoise Pichard
told AFP:
If I did receive the prize money someday, it would go completely to the Committee for Mutual aid to European Prisoners (BOLETUS) relating to the case of Michel Lajoye, except for a gift to the Cat Refuge.
Michel Lajoye is a fascist considered to be a political prisoner by other fascists for setting off a firecracker in a coffee shop frequented by North Africans. In a bid to be as intolerant of abhorable speech as an intolerant fascist, French authorities jailed him for 18 years.
As rotten as his thinking is, the idea of having these sorts of ‘thought crime’ sentences is what is perceived to be a free society isn’t just ironic, but speaks to a
very European nonchalance about free speech.
That impulse, like the Iranian effort to infect people’s minds into denying Hitler’s genocides makes me think that they all deserve one another.
(N.B.: Links to neo-Nazi and fascist sympathizing websites
have been omitted. Just as evil as Marxists and the radical left, they don’t deserve any traffic.)
