For the Jews
the [Holocaust] story has become an indispensable part of their religious
heritage, very much like the plight Israel's children had to endure in Egypt or
the destruction of the second temple. For non-Jews as well, the Holocaust has
gradually been transformed into a religious myth ... Even the slightest
criticism of Jews such as Elie Wiesel or Simon Wiesenthal has become taboo: if
you criticize a Jew, you're an anti-Semite. Hitler was also an anti-Semite who,
as everybody knows, gassed the Jews. So anybody criticizing Jews paves the way
to new gas chambers!
As primitive as it is, this
kind of argument is remarkably effective. That's what makes the revisionist
struggle so exceptionally difficult: not only must we fight an uphill struggle
against media censorship, repression and propaganda, but we must also overcome
a kind of religious faith. As history shows, refuting religion with rational
arguments is not exactly an easy task. But this struggle must be fought, and
because the fate of future generations depends on its outcome, we had better
win it. The Holocaust lie has poisoned Europeans and other white people of
European descent with a guilt complex that threatens to destroy our
self-respect and our will to survive.
For all those engaged in this
struggle against an enemy with so much clout and virtually unlimited financial
resources, the next few years will hardly be devoid of interest. For
revisionists, at least, life is not tedious.
