The idea of freedom of speech and all, but I still sometimes get very queasy when I hear how it is being used
Here’s another story concerning what appears to be a trend: purported “peace activists” promoting Holocaust denial and anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. In this case, a University of Oregon peace organization called Pacifica Forum, which was founded and is led by a retired professor and a retired administrator from that university, is marking Kristallnacht with two days of speeches and conferences this weekend conducted by Mark Weber director of the Holocaust denial group Institute for Historical Review. Weber, the former editor of the National Vanguard, the main publication of the neo-Nazi National Alliance Party, has spent the past 30 years as a professional advocate of Holocaust denial and anti-Semitism. His opening lecture on Friday is entitled: “Free Speech vs. Zionist Power”. Advertisements for the event feature the image of a snake in the shape of a Star of David with the legend “The Israel Lobby: How Powerful Is It?” November 9 marks the 69th anniversary of Kristallnacht, which is considered by many historians to be the beginning of the Holocaust.
I just keep thinking that maybe the human race isn’t supposed to evolve, since it sure seems as though it has stopped down there in Oregon.
