They are thus quite capable of influencing the gullible.<BR/>I can see this from my own research films published on you tube and the way they are attacked by denier liars who are prepared to believe any rubbish, no matter how ridiculous, just as long as it proves that the Shoah did not happen.<BR/>It also appears to be that the proliferation of anti holocaust denial laws has also added to this phenomenum. More general laws protecting the memory of the dead would have done just as well.alanheathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831088396506727004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10183882.post-54249185942998476432008-01-02T08:52:00.000-05:002008-01-02T08:52:00.000-05:00Dear Prof. Lipstadt, Could you please post again...Dear Prof. Lipstadt,<BR/> Could you please post again my comment?
