Commenting on the Prof Arthur Butz witch-hunt at Northwestern University
I
sent the paragraph below to the Northwestern Student newspaper, which published
it.
The clearest evidence that the holocaust [or holyhoax or hoaxoco$t] is a theology and not a teaching of secular historiography is the obvious fact that its monopoly on public discourse can only be maintained by criminalizing and smearing any unwelcome questions, facts, or doubts. Witness the shameful deportation, imprisonment, and witch trial visited up the world's premier holocaustorian, Germar Rudolf! And all the while the West's human rights hypocrites preach universal human values to the rest of mankind.

A Letter from 57 Faculty Members of Northwestern University's Department of
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Concerning a Member of Our Faculty
The undersigned faculty of Northwestern
University's Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science utterly
disavow and condemn the views and actions of a member of our faculty, Arthur
Butz, denying the historical reality of the Holocaust. His words and deeds in
this regard are an extreme embarrassment to our Department and to Northwestern.
From a more fundamental perspective, Butz's Holocaust denial is an affront to
our humanity and our standards as scholars, and hence merits our censure. As
faculty members of Northwestern's Department of Electrical Engineering and
Computer Science, we repudiate Arthur Butz. We wish that he would leave our
Department and our University and stop trading on our reputation for academic
excellence.

The Professor Arthur Butz controversy at your university indicates to me how
among those academics who decry Professor Butz's refusal to believe in the
'Holocaust' are morally and intellectually bankrupt.
Instead of taking issue with Professor Butz's thesis you are blinded by hatred
that causes you to become infantile in your response.
Defaming and degrading a man who refuses to believe in the Holocaust mythology
is a reflection upon the minds that stoop to that kind of level, and not upon
Professor Butz's dissident mind.
Dissent is the hallmark of academia and of free-thinkers who celebrate reason
and understanding over superstition.
As a reality check - rather than huffing and puffing and bluffing why don't you
look at the detailed facts of the hoax, then ask yourself why there is this
public coercion that aims to force this Holocaust belief on to those who simply
don't want to believe the myths.
What are these myths?
1. That Germans had an extermination policy against European Jewry;
2. That Germans used huge chemical slaughterhouses - gas chambers as the murder
weapon;
3. That Germans exterminated six million Jews.
Then ask yourself the question: Why is it that after the 1988 Ernst Zündel 1988
Toronto Holocaust Trial, the four million figure at Auschwitz was reduced to
1.-1.5 million, without the six million figure being reduced?
Finally, please note that those who refuse to believe in the Holocaust van not
prove that "it did not happen". It is up to the Holocaust believers to prove
that it happened - something that ahs not been done.
The current Holocaust trial of Ernst Zündel at Mannheim, Germany, indicates how
truth as a defence is thrown out the window. Further, on 15 February 2006, a
defence counsel member, Sylvia Stolz, has been charged with the same allegation
that her client faces because in her argumentation she too vigorously defended
her client, thereby moving her mind too closely to "Holocaust denial".
Any academic with an ounce of integrity will realize that here we have the
classic pattern that prevailed during the witch trials. The fact that one is in
court is enough to establish guilt. What remains for a judge to determine is how
contrite/sorry an accused is.The substance of the matter has become irrelevant.
The Northwestern University academics who have displayed basic bad manners in
their diatribe against Professor Arthur Butz are moral and intellectual cowards.
Had they till an ounce of integrity within their mind, then they would bother to
think-through the issues that Professor Butz writes about in his book. instead,
like little children they point their finger at Professor Butz, all the while
playing to the gallery and claiming how good and righteous they are and how evil
Professor Butz is.
Time will give Professor Butz a well-deserved victory for intellectual honesty
while your mentally challenged academics may well be faced with a perpetual hunt
for more scapegoats that prevent them from exercising their self-reflective
intelligence in this matter.
Shame, shame, shame.
