The Holocaust is one of the most well documented and researched periods in history. There are clear records of the systematic and industrial scale of the Nazi plan to murder the Jews of Europe. Not only from historians but from the Nazis themselves.

You would therefore think that those who seek to deny or to denigrate this history would be given short shrift.
