Unlawful opinions

BBC

Karen Pollock, chief executive of the UK's Holocaust Educational Trust welcomed the verdict. "Holocaust denial is anti-Semitism dressed up as intellectual debate. It should be regarded as such and treated as such," Ms Pollock told the BBC News website.

But the author and academic Deborah Lipstadt, who Irving unsuccessfully sued for libel in the UK in 2000 over claims that he was a Holocaust denier, said she was dismayed.

"I am not happy when censorship wins, and I don't believe in winning battles via censorship... The way of fighting Holocaust deniers is with history and with truth," she told the BBC News website.

    Holocaust deniers should be literally laughed out of town. Everyone over the age of 16 in North America, Europe, Australia, most of South America, much of Asia, and some of Africa has seen movies from WWII of the extermination camps. Being a holocaust denier is like being a fruit denier. Sorry, we've all seen fruit.
