Yes, their other subject material says a lot. I didn't read them, but did review some of the topics. Certainly the growing claim that the Holocaust was a myth is completely false. There is no question though that Lincoln has his critics. It has also become popular in recent years to label Jefferson as a racist.

Here too is bilge. Kinda extreme.

France's Fabius-Gayssot law of July 13, 1990, makes it a crime to "contest" the "crimes against humanity" as defined by the Nuremberg International
Military Tribunal of 1945-46. This one-sided law -- which was introduced to the French parliament by Socialist Party deputy Laurent Fabius (a
prominent Jewish political figure) and by Communist Party deputy Jean-Claude Gayssot -- is applied selectively only to expressions of skepticism
about real or alleged atrocities committed by the losers of the Second World War -- that is, by Germans and their allies -- and only about the wartime
treatment of Jews.

Newspapers, government officials and human rights organizations in Europe and the United States that normally are quick to condemn restrictions on
civil liberties have been silent about France's Fabius-Gayssot law and similar "Holocaust denial" laws in Germany, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland and
Spain.
