	The Holocaust Industry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		That numerous fraudsters are falsely claiming to be survivors of the Nazi Holocaust.
		When I read Finkelstein's book, The Holocaust Industry, at the time of its appearance, I was in the middle of my own investigations of these matters, and I came to the conclusion that he was on the right track.
		It is filled with precisely the kind of shrill hyperbole that Finkelstein rightly deplores in much of the current media hype over the Holocaust; it is brimming with the same indifference to historical facts, inner contradictions, strident politics and dubious contextualizations; and it oozes with the same smug sense of moral and intellectual superiority.

	A review of "The Holocaust Industry"
		He argues that the Holocaust Industry would not exist without international bullying by the United States, which is why this country is not a target of rent extraction despite having a record on holocaust issues that is scarcely distinguishable from that of the recently extorted Swiss.
		Holocaust Affairs offices within the White House and the Departments of Justice and State, staunch political support in Congress, and U.S. support at the United Nations are further indicia of successful rent seeking by the Holocaust Industry.
		Holocaust entrepreneurship and rent seeking played the determining role in creating the modern state of Israel, a series of events that Finkelstein dismisses as unrelated to the industry per se.

		Finkelstein asserts that the memorial’s ulterior purpose is to demonstrate that a holocaust could not occur in the United States, thereby camouflaging the country’s actual treatment of its imported African and native populations.

	Finkelstein's Holocaust Industry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		But many of his Holocaust convictions are indistinguishable from those of the Holocaust industry he attacks, and his "radical" critique of Holocaust orthodoxy ends up restating some of its most important dogmas in an only marginally less pernicious form.
		Holocaust remembering accelerated rapidly in the decade that followed, and by 1991 Rabbi Michael Berenbaum, then project director of the Holocaust Memorial Museum, could boast, accurately, that World War II was merely a "background story" to the Holocaust.
		They would abandon Israel and the Holocaust propaganda that helps sustain it the moment that Israel ceased to be, in the eyes of their Gentile benefactors, a valuable surrogate for Imperial America, since their Zionism and their awakened Holocaust memory are not the result of racial emotions, but only of unsentimental political calculation.

		Whereas Peter Novick maintains that the use of the memory of the Holocaust is arbitrary and not guided by interests, Finkelstein demonstrates that material interests, as well as ideological motivations, are very important factors behind the Holocaust Industry’s distortions.
		The ideological advocates of the Holocaust Industry are dismissive of normal scholarly practices of inquiry, introspection, and comparison.
		The holocaust is frequently used to characterize the crimes of the official enemies of the United States’ ruling elite and rationalize its incursions.

	BBC News \| EUROPE \| Is there a Holocaust 'Industry'?
		In more recent years, the Holocaust industry has effectively turned into a shake-down racket in which more and more countries throughout Europe are being bludgeoned into coughing up compensation.
		In his forthcoming book, "The Holocaust Industry", Professor Norman Finkelstein of the University of New York argues that our present interpretation of the Holocaust has been deliberately devised by American Jewish groups for purposes of ethnic supremacy, political advantage and financial gain.
		For Professor Finkelstein, the Holocaust is not incomparable.

	Norman Finkelstein - The Holocaust Industry: the book
		In the first chapter, Finkelstein maintains that the subject of the Holocaust was totally overlooked within the context of the cold war.
		The struggle between the two blocks – communist and capitalist – made the memory of the Holocaust “politically inappropriate” in view of the re-birth of West Germany, which was part of the “free world”.
		The general objective that created the “Holocaust industry” was, at the time, the will to gain access to the “nerve centre” of US democracy.

		In this threatened holocaust of human life..." --The American Hebrew (New York, issue 582 of October 31, 1919) The Talmud also has atrocity claims which demonstrate the Jewish mentality: Gittin 57b claims that four billion Jews were killed by the Romans in the city of Bethar.
		To accept that 6 million of 15.2 million Jews worldwide died in a Holocaust would require you to believe that the Jewish population was only 9.2 million in 1946, which would require you to believe that it suddenly increased by an unprecedented 1.9% per year after WWII to 12.9 million by 1963.
		“Holocaust” is the term describing the Nazi annihilation of about 6 million Jews (two thirds of the pre-World War II European Jewish population), including 4,500,000 from Russia, Poland, and the Baltic; 750,000 from Hungary and Romania; 290,000 from Germany and Austria; 105,000 from The Netherlands; 90,000 from France; 54,000 from Greece.

	Book review - 'The Holocaust Industry' by Dr. Norman Finkelstein
		Yet, he recalls, even she was disgusted at the rise of the Holocaust industry in America.
		Finkelstein says the Holocaust industry was born at the time of the six-day war in June 1967 - before that both the Holocaust and Israel were scarcely mentioned in American public life.
		The presence of the Holocaust Museum in Washington "is particularly incongruous in the absence of a museum commemorating crimes in the course of American history".

	The Holocaust Industry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In an illuminating essay, historian David Stannard ridicules the ‘small industry of Holocaust hagiographers arguing for the uniqueness of the Jewish experience with all the energy and ingenuity of theological zealots”.
		For Wiesel, Novick observes, the Holocaust is effectively a “mystery” religion: it “leads into darkness”, “negates all answers”, “lies outside, if not beyond, history”, “defies both knowledge and description”, “cannot be explained nor visualised”, is “never to be comprehended or transmitted”, marks a “destruction of history” and a “mutation on a cosmic scale”.
		But the most ‘insidious’ form of Holocaust denial, she suggests, is ‘immoral equivalencies’: that is, denying the uniqueness of the Holocaust.

	Norman Finkelstein
		Rather the contrary, I insist throughout the book that the conventional view of the Nazi holocaust - i.e, an assembly-line, industrialized killing of the Jews - is correct, and that the conventional figures on those killed are (more or less) correct.
		One main point of the book is that it is the Holocaust industry that has become the main purveyor of Holocaust denial in the world.
		In general, negationism is a marginal phenomenon wildly inflated by the Holocaust industry to justify its existence.

	CNN.com - Review: 'The Holocaust Industry' - September 6, 2000
		For Finkelstein, such cavalier inaccuracies and holier-than-thou allusions are classic outgrowths of a phenomenon that has transformed the Nazi atrocities against the Jews of Europe into a largely American-driven myth designed to serve the narrow interests of homegrown Jewish elites.
		On a broader level, Finkelstein is justified in questioning the authenticity of the emotional and other claims staked by Holocaust keepers of the flame.
		Holocaust denial is also the fault of the Jews.

	The Holocaust Industry by Norman G. Finkelstein, 1859843239, Lowest Book Price Finder
		Until comparatively recently, I implicitly accepted the image of the holocaust and its victims that was presented by the mass media.
		By the way, Holocaust Industry seems to be not only one industry of such kind that makes profits for various people worldwide involving money and ideological activities.
		In this "Industry", however, as well as other "Japan's Wartime Atrocities Industries" mostly the Tokyo Trial created such as "Comfort Women Industry" and "Unit 731 Industry" and so on, there is a quite peculiar side that "the Holocaust Industry" never has: bogus perpetrators.

		In his book he contends that a greater threat to the memory of the Holocaust than Holocaust deniers is what he calls 'The Holocaust Industry'.
		He argues that the ruthless industrialisation of the Holocaust has encouraged the rebirth of anti-semitism in Europe and the United States.
		But Finkelstein makes clear that the Holocaust Industry is not about making sure that Nazi depravity is not forgotten — it is about extorting huge sums of money from Switzerland, Germany and any other country which can be tarred with the Nazi brush.

	The Holocaust Industry: Reflections on the Exploitation of Jewish Suffering [Book Review]
		The post—war “taboo” on serious discussion of the Holocaust was not broken by the 1967 Arab—Israeli war, as he repeatedly asserts, but by the Eichmann Trial of 1960—62, as every serious account of this subject notes.
		It must also be stressed that the current centrality of the Holocaust flows from the power of that event to affect virtually everyone today: it is recognized by nearly everybody as an unspeakable horror that requires no “Holocaust industry” to impress on our consciousness.
		Indeed, the problem with the Holocaust as a memory and a metaphor today is precisely that it is too powerful, an ever—expanding fl hole of consciousness that invariably swallows up everything in its path.

	The Holocaust Industry
		Recalling Holocaust hoaxers such as Jerzy Kosinski and Binjamin Wilkomirski, as well as the demagogic constructions of writers like Daniel Goldhagen, Finkelstein contends that the major danger posed to the memory of Nazism’s victims comes not from the distortions of Holocaust deniers but from self-proclaimed guardians of Holocaust memory.
		In The Holocaust Industry, Professor Finkelstein draws on previously unpublished material to show how the Jewish Claims Conference and the World Jewish Restitution Organization have extracted enormous compensation from Switzerland, Germany and other European governments, which they have then failed to pass on to the few living Holocaust survivors.
		Thoroughly researched and closely argued, The Holocaust Industry is all the more disturbing and powerful because the issues it deals with are so rarely discussed.

	Finkelstein's Expose of the Holocaust Industry
		Novick's explanation for the Holocaust's prominence in American life is grounded for the most part in the latter and more amorphous approach.
		Indeed, we believe that the whole idea of the Holocaust being impervious to reason was a direct response to the perhaps hyper-rational critiques of Butz and Faurisson in the 1970's.
		On the other hand, if one wants to establish or correct the facts of the Holocaust, which is the main plank of the revisionist challenge, Finkelstein's book serves as a reminder that one can do so without having to engage the issues of the Holocaust Industry as such.

	Holocaust Industry And Zionism The Holocaust Shakedown
		The facts that most of these paintings were acquired by their present owners from Zionist dealers such as the Wildensteins and that many of them were legally purchased from their Zionist owners during the war are glossed over.
		All of these paintings are characterized by the Zionists as "art stolen from victims of the Holocaust by the Nazis," and they want it all back now.
		A messy divorce in the Wildenstein family attracted public attention last year to the Zionist family's business dealings in Paris during the war, and another Zionist family claimed that the Wildensteins have artworks that actually should be returned to them, because they were forced to sell them at fire-sale prices during the war.

	The Holocaust Industry (letter) - 26 February 2005
		C.J. Ward quotes Frank Knopfelmacher's denunciation of "the Holocaust Industry" (News Weekly, February 12, 2005), possibly unaware of the more important, erudite and detailed criticism levelled by the late Chief Rabbi Lord Immanuel Jakobovits in his lecture on "Religious Response to the Holocaust", given in London in 1987.
		The communist Holocaust preceded Hitler's: it began in 1917 when the teaching of Judaism to Jewish children became a capital crime: both grandfathers of my Rabbi's wife were killed for this Soviet crime.
		If Jews have not equated the communist holocaust of mass murders in eastern Europe with that perpetrated by the Nazis, it is because so few countries helped Jews escape.
