THE fifth anniversary of 9/11 offers a brilliant study of the progressive neurosis, commemorating an event while denying its origins, nature and cause. It has been akin to an exhausting and endless documentary on Pearl Harbor that scarcely mentions Japan, the sort of product where a professional editor would demand a rewrite. The anniversary has become an extravaganza in Bush bashing, a reminder that President George W. Bush is the most compelling and easiest media target for a generation. His blunders in Iraq are a fundamental part of the post-9/11 story. But John Howard nailed the problem on Four Corners...

After going to my two classes today, I called the CBS Evening News Desk at 212-975-3691. I asked the lady if CBS was going to conduct an internal investigation into the forged documenets that Dan Slander purported, or if they were going to continue to report them as truth.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 26 /U.S. Newswire/ -- A new survey has found that Holocaust-denial activity decreased in the United States in 2003, but increased in the Arab world, where it often enjoys government sponsorship.

The report's co-authors are Holocaust scholars Dr. Alex Grobman (author of a recent book on Holocaust denial) and Dr. Rafael Medoff (director of the Wyman Institute). The complete text of the 17-page report may...

In yet another case of odious Palestinian Authority Holocaust denial, PA TV this week taught the following "Truths" about World War II: 1. The Nazis did not specifically plan the killing of Jews. 2. Jews, Germans, Gypsies, and Poles were all killed in World War II, as happens in war. 3. If Hitler planned any extermination, it was of disabled Germans. 4. The term “Holocaust” in its human sense refers to experiences of the Palestinians, the Gypsies…. 5. The “Holocaust industry” is a financial scheme of the Zionist leadership that has generated billions of dollars in profits. It is curious...

ANNAPOLIS, Md. - The war on terror is now moving into a phase that will test America's commitment to prosecuting it, as some among our allies begin to take counsel of their fears and search for explanations of 9/11 that will both excuse them from the war and reassure them that they are not at risk. The latest example of this comes from Ottawa. There have been many overseas (joined by the usual suspects inside the U.S.) who have said a lot of fairly stupid things since last September, but the Canadian team led by Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, is...
