I have to say that Gareth and I have had our differences in the past but I am with him 100% on this; historical revisionism in any shape or form is not to be countenanced. Ever.

I'm sorry, but suggesting that World War II was started by a Jewish
conspiracy
is not "goofy". It is deeply offensive to the memories of the victims of Naziism, and entirely at odds with the facts.
I, for one, will have nothing to do with any project that, implicitly or explicitly, grants credibility to such a viewpoint. To do so would not be neutrality, but an abrogation of moral, intellectual and human
responsibility
to record and report accurately on those events.
