Immigration
Policy, 1881-1965: A Historical Review
published
by:
Commitee on Open Debate on the Holocaust
THE
AIM OF THIS SITE is to promote intellectual freedom with regard
to this one historical event, which in turn will promote intellectual
freedom toward all historical events (thus all other issues).
We have chosen to concentrate on the gas chamber stories and war
crimes trials because they are emblematic of the allegedly unique
monstrosity of the Germans before and during World War II. We
believe it profoundly vulgar, and emasculating, to spend half
a century condemning others for their violence and brutality when
we have not yet learned to condemn our own, or even recognize
it. We want to help civilize Americans. We're not Germans and
we're not Jews (well, some of us are) and we are not focused on
how naughty they were or were not. We're focused on American culture,
on the American ideal that liberty has the power to wash a people
clean and that there is no liberty without intellectual freedom.
