Abstract: A Holocaust revisionist site discusses the controversial ad campaign in Berlin to raise money for a Holocaust memorial. The image reproduced here is from a German billboard and includes not only the large text, "The Holocaust never happened," but also the fine print, "There are still many people who make this claim. In 20 years there could be even more. Make a donation to the memorial for the murdered Jews of Europe." Compare with the ad reproduced on David Irving's Holocaust denial site, which eliminated the fine print. http://hdl.handle.net/1964/334
Description: A Holocaust revisionist site discusses the controversial ad campaign in Berlin in 2001 to raise money for a Holocaust memorial. The image reproduced here is from a German billboard and includes not only the large text, "The Holocaust never happened," but also the fine print, "There are still many people who make this claim. In 20 years there could be even more. Make a donation to the memorial for the murdered Jews of Europe." Note what the author has to say about this ad: "This odd advertisement, especially odd in Germany where those 6 words would typically result in a jail sentence, was designed to shock the average German...As with so many of the recent crop of Holocaust museums and memorials, it is clear that combating Holocaust revisionism is a major motivation for the work. But what should we think of an organization that raises money for an information center through the propagation of disinformation?" Compare with the ad reproduced on David Irving's Holocaust denial site, which eliminated the fine print. http://hdl.handle.net/1964/334
