AndromedasWake said:Let them do it. Holocaust denial is no different in its formulation than creationism. In fact, as many have pointed out, a larger percentage of historians deny the holocaust than biologists deny evolution.
What's depressing is that amongst all of the talk about DMD, even from reasonable parties, very few people actually seem to get the point of it. Denying the holocaust is not a proportional response, because those who participated in DMD are not denying the existence of Muhammad per se, but rather denying bullies the right to make violent threats.
This only serves to further the anti-semite and anti-evidence stereotype of the Muslim religion.
i thought these people were atleast better at making arguments against the holocaust, but that one got shattered,

"66 Questions and Answers on the Holocaust"
here are examples;
Katie Johnson said:1. What proof exists that the Nazis killed six million Jews?
None. All we have is postwar testimony, mostly of individual "survivors." This testimony is contradictory, and very few claim to have actually witnessed any "gassing." There are no contemporaneous documents or hard evidence: no mounds of ashes, no crematories capable of disposing of millions of corpses, no "human soap," no lamp shades made of human skin, and no credible demographic statistics.
10. What hostile measure did world Jewry undertake against Germany as early as 1933?
In March 1933, international Jewish organizations declared an international boycott of German goods.
11. Did the Jews of the world "declare war on Germany"?
Yes. Newspapers around the world reported this. A front-page headline in the London Daily Express (March 24, 1933), for example, announced "Judea Declares War on Germany."
14. How many "gas chambers" to kill people were there at Auschwitz?
None.
20. Is there any evidence of American, British and Soviet policy to torture German prisoners in order to exact "confessions" for use at the trials at Nuremberg and elsewhere?
Yes. Torture was extensively used to produce fraudulent "evidence" for the infamous Nuremberg trials, and in other postwar "war crimes" trials.
26. Is there any evidence that Hitler ordered mass extermination of Jews?
No.
41. Can bodies be burned in pits?
No. It is impossible for human bodies to be totally consumed by flames in this manner because of lack of oxygen.
53. What evidence is there that Hitler knew of an on-going Jewish extermination program?
None.
63. What has happened to "revisionist" historians who have challenged the Holocaust story?
They have been subjected to smear campaigns, loss of academic positions, loss of pensions, destruction of their property and physical violence.
