In addition to the 'traditional' form of anti-Semitic Holocaust revisionism, practiced by the extremist fringes of the religious right such as the Institute for Historical Review, a new form of anti-gay Holocaust revisionism, endorsed and sponsored by the somewhat more mainstream religous right, including Colorado for Family Values and the Oregon Citizen's Alliance, has recently emerged. The new anti-gay Holocaust revisionism alleges that gay men were not particularly persecuted under the German Nazi regime, and additionally, that homosexual men were especially prevalent in the ranks of German Naziism, and were in large part, the motivators of the Jewish Holocaust. This new form of Holocaust revisionism is typified by the book The Pink Swastika by Scott Lively (formerly of the Oregon Citizen's Alliance) and Kevin Abrams.
While not, in any way attempting to diminish the repugnance of 'traditional' anti-Semitic Holocaust revisionism, this new form of Holocaust revisionism poses a grave danger insofar as it is sponsored and endorsed by groups which are (marginally) closer to the political center than those groups which promulgate 'traditional' Holocaust revisionism. These groups have also shown, through the several anti-gay Oregon ballot initiatives, and the Colorado amendment two, that they are able and willing to influence public opinion to persecute gay men and lesbians.
We stand with our Jewish friends, brothers, and sisters in remembering the senseless and brutal slaughter of over twelve million of our fellow human beings -- straight and gay, Jewish and Gentile, men and women, and in proclaiming "Never Again!"

Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) Greg Raven's Home Page - home of the Institute for Historical ReviewFounded in 1978, the Institute for Historical Review is a non-partisan, not-for-profit educational enterprise that continues the tradition of Historical Revisionism pioneered by distinguished historians such as Harry Elmer Barnes, A. J. P. Taylor, Charles Tansill, Paul Rassinier, and William H. Chamberlin.
The purpose of the IHR is, in the words of Barnes, to "bring history into accord with acts." To this end, it sheds light on suppressed information about key chapters of history, especially twentieth century history, that have special relevance today. The IHR promotes the cause of international peace by encouraging greater understanding of the root causes, nature and consequences of war. It firmly supports the First Amendment right of free speech.
Probably the best-known and certainly the most controversial aspect of the IHR's work has been its treatment of the Holocaust issue. Over the years, the IHR has published several major books and numerous probing essays by scholars such as Dr. Arthur Butz of Northwestern University and French professor Robert Faurisson that call into question the orthodox Holocaust extermination story.
