註釋Since the 1980s Holocaust denial in Australia has been on the rise; Australia has become one of its main importers and exporters. Focuses on the beliefs and activities of three organizations, for which Holocaust denial is a primary objective: the Australian League of Rights, established in 1946 by Eric Butler; the Australian Civil Liberties Union, established in 1984 by John Bennett; and the Adelaide Institute, founded in the late 1990s by Fredrick Toben. Despite their denial of being antisemitic, the ideologues of all three organizations believe in a Jewish world conspiracy and in a link between Judaism and communism. Their Holocaust denial is connected with their anti-Zionist agenda. Dwells on methods used by these organizations; their international ties, including in the Islamic world; their relationship with the broader racist Right in Australia; and the role of David Irving, who, more than anyone else, made Holocaust denial an issue of public debate in the country. Reflects, also, on the responses to Holocaust denial.
