Coogan consistently embarrasses himself. He remains unable to explain how a government that expended 10 million pounds (equivalent to 50 million USD today) and nourished 3.5 million individuals daily at the height of the famine could possess genocidal intent.

I am still formulating out ideas on my article on genocide. In the meantime I’ve ordered some new books. They have implications for my article on Tim Pat Coogan - I’ve been meaning to revise and expand it - and my future series of articles on Holocaust Obfuscation.

Interestingly, Guenter Lewy's assertion in 2005 that no documents used by the Ottoman court-martial survived was untenable even before Taner Akcam republicated documents from Krikor Guerguerian's archive. The Turkish government published one in 1995. (Noticed by Hilmar Kaiser in 2014)

Current shelf organization + excess books. Currently my books on an Gorta Mór, Srebrenica and Rwanda are not shelved. Also some excess books I intent to sell.

Orders I’m still waiting on to arrive.

John Kirby stated today that the U.S. has been investigating incidents from Israel's current operation in Gaza and has not found "any incidents where the Israelis have violated international humanitarian law." This contradicts his claim in January that the U.S. was not doing so.

New book. Liked so much I ordered a physical copy. Good news is that the books in good condition despite my amazon driver literally leaving the package in the rain for an hour. (Book had no plastic wrap protecting it from the elements. Only cardboard.)

Support for armed resistance among #Palestinians drops by 20 points, and support for a two-state solution doubles. #Hamas is also losing favor among Palestinians in both #Gaza and the #West_Bank.

Al Jazeera English's documentary on Oct 7th largely repeats stuff we already knew and confirms some suspicions I’ve had about the attack. They accept as authentic documents published by Israel but seem to obfuscate the issue of Hamas ordering the massacre.

I think this is the first time a book from overseas took less than a week to be delivered.

Irving's family asks, "What's your favorite Irving quote?" My favorite quote from Irving is that time he tried claiming the Nazis were gassing cadavers. Truly the greatest intellectual of our age.

Also, a worthwhile note since I mentioned Dadrian taking from Guerguerian. Back in 2017 the media was running with this story that a "smoking gun" was discovered by his protégé. While this knowledge was lost to time, it's worth mentioning that it was published in 1964 and 1985.

Look... Digitization is nice and all. But it's worth mentioning that this man "borrowed" much of his work from Krikor Guerguerian. In some ways, he also set the field back by introducing outmoded concepts.

Morris and Ze’evi cite multiple accounts in their work used by others to “prove” the existence of a “duel-track mechanism”. The flaw in the dual-track system is that compromising material was discussed via official channels. Such as Talât approving Reshid’s militia.

Rwanda protests AU meeting held today to discuss eastern DR Congo conflict without Kigali's involvement. Seems to be an indirect admission to backing M23.

Oh, look, an outright lie told about Kenneth Roth...

Ben-Gvir tweeted: "Today it was proven that the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza is not only madness while our abductees are being held in the Strip under substandard conditions, but also endangers the Israeli soldiers."

Pro-Israel accounts appear to be faking Reddit comments from Aaron Brushnell to make him out to be a raging anti-Semite.

Holocaust deniers will constantly highlight that Auschwitz had a "high ground water table." Birkenau was built on top of swampland, which was prone to flooding. In 1940 the Nazi's hired a man by the name of Zunker to improve the drainage in Birkenau and its surroundings. Hence a lower water table.

Holocaust deniers will regularly play on David Coles 1992 documentary "David Cole interviews Dr. Franciszek Piper". Cole claims to have exposed the @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social as presenting Krema I as being in its original state. The Museum, however, never hid that it was reconstructed.

I've been told that Graf contributed to Rudolf's Encylopedia. If Graf contributed to the Majdanek section, I have no clue how he managed to make this error. There are no documents published in his work with Mattogno or since that describe this room as a morgue.

Incitement by a former Israeli official against UNRWA staff. US intelligence assessment found "low confidence" in the serious allegations against the 12 staff but also "cast doubt (..) on accusations that the UN agency was collaborating with Hamas in a wider way."

Some positive developments on U.S. policy towards a hostage deal. This was brought to my attention by an associate and reported on by Barak Ravid.
