I mean Elie Wiesel was attacked while trying to get to the airport by a denyer and he asked all sorts of questions about his time in Auschwitz, hasn't the poor man gone through enough already? We really need to be telling and retelling the history of WW11 so as to not let it disappear, in my opinion. What do you think?

Well, how can you deny the holocaust? Its part of history! Hitler killed 6,000,000 Jews! There will be no way to hide that fact! Denial is the only way! And why they can't just face the truth is beond me. In my view there is no controversy! It happened! Thats just it! There is no secrete investigation going on to try to prove otherwise! That investigation would come up completely empty anyways! To much evidence supports the fact that 6,000,000 Jews where foolishly murdered!

I think there is no legitimate controversy over the Holocaust, only ignorant people who want to re-write history. I think the so-called controversy is disgusting. There is a wealth of uncontroverable evidence that the holocaust happened. It is an effort to discredit the existence of Israel.

It outrages me everytime I hear some idiot say there was no Holocaust. There is film footage, diaries, personal accounts and many survivors with numbers tattooed on their arms. Yes, I think this is definitely a part of history that needs to be taught to all generations in hopes that it will NEVER happen again!

If people were honest about the history, and more people knew that it wasn't a 'jewish' thing, that several people who were NOT jewish were also killed, it wouldn't be so easy to write off as 'someone else's problem'. And the anti semites would have to come up with something else...unless they wanted to attack their own history right along with the jews.

We need to remember everything that happened in the Holocaust even if it is terrible because we need to learn from history and not repeat ourselves.

The "controversy" you speak of only exists in the minds of historical revisionist who seek to justify their anti-semitic world view.

i didnt know there was a controversy..if he was attacked by someone, doesnt that kinda mean whoever attacked him was trying to suppress whatever info he is trying to keep out there...??? kinda seems to me that if the holocaust really didnt happen, we wouldnt have all these kooks questioning it...

While I may not agree with the opinion of those who deny the Holocaust, as long as they are American citizens and have the right to free speech, I will defend their right to speak and believe as they wish.

I dont think there is anyway to say that it did not happen, but I think people are getting sick of the jews using it to get away with everything. They weren't the only ones who went through that.
