Re: Allied atrocities
I think sometimes some Historians in the west have got lost in the emotionalism of the holocaust. That certain subjects of world war two are taboo and beyond a biased debate and historical discussion. That is to say too many people have been scared to try to be objective (if this is possible). That it is to say that the accepted idea that everyone should condemn the Nazis as generally bad and evil and the allies as generally good and moral which is far from the real truth. Even though I disagree with David Irving as much as anyone would reading and seeing the evidence, as one famous American said "I defend to my death his right to say it." Historical debate is the only prisoner that came out of his court case. If he had said that Stalin had not killed anyone, nobody would have really batted an eyelid why? Or at least he would not have gone to prison.
