James J. Martin

“

Revisionist History Has a Place- Sometimes

But not here

By the by, recent correspondence with Skoonj led from a Diana West thing to Pearl Harbor: Antecedents, Background and Consequences by James J. Martin. I then chipped in with Day of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor. But that's not what this is about.

James J. Martin is known as a "history revisionist;" not always a pejorative. It means, here, that when he found the facts to be otherwise than the story, he went after it. Were he alive today, he'd be going nuts trying to square things.*

One problem I do have with Martin is that later in life he became a Holocaust "denier." Not really claiming that death camps didn't exist, but "I don't believe that the evidence of a planned extermination of the entire Jewish population of Europe is holding up."

Cynical as I've become about some aspects of the subject— e.g., If Gypsies controlled America's media, we would have a Gypsy Holocaust Museum, and endless documentaries on the Hiller channels about them being hunted down and murdered. So, it becomes a matter of scale in that respect; but I simply cannot get my head around any argument that claims the "Jewish Holocaust" did not occur as a matter of policy. Plan "A." or not. I'll call it a mid-life brain-fart, and let it go.

* James J. Martin died in 2004. Many think over the media adulation being poured upon a nondescript Kenyan-born dope dealer, and race-hustler from Chicago, who was running for the US Senate! He accepted that he could no longer keep up with media manipulation of the truth, and lost his will to live.

Robert M. Mitchell Jr. said...: I can almost/kind of see where he is coming from. He is, of course, wrong, but it is an easy mistake for people who do a little digging to make, because of all the suppression of the "before Final" solutions, which had to be buried, because they make the Democrats, the Left, guilty as Sin. F.D.R., not only sending the boats back, but stopping them from going to other countries? Lots of examples of that sort of Crime against Humanity. Not good P.R., you know.

So, instead, the picture painted is one where, out of NOWHERE!, the NAZIs decided to murder all the Jews. That's a lie, and when you've been lied to, it's easy to write the whole thing off as a lie, Human nature being what it is.; 9/29/13, 1:11 PM
Skoonj said...: I have had the Martin article in my favorites file for some years. I kept it because one of the notes concerns a book from US Naval Institute Press by RADM Kemp Tolley: "Cruise of the Lanikai, Incitement for War". An interesting book, but this is a more interesting article, especially in light of Diana West's book. West concentrates mainly on the actions of Soviet agents and fellow travelers in the FDR administrations, and also mainly on what happened in Europe. This article, by James J. Martin, may be seen in light of West's book as a confirmation of her thesis without even attempting to. Read the article, and I'm sure you will see how Pearl Harbor was the work of the same agents and fellow travelers, toward the same end. At the very least it will give you pause when assessing the lead-up to Pearl Harbor. It was no accident.

Regarding Diana West and her book, "American Betrayal: The Secret Assault on Our Nation’s Character", there have attacks by David Horowitz and Ronald Radosh, as well as others, who rarely use a truthful argument in their attacks on her. This article was published today in Breitbart: http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/09/26/Its-worse-than-a-conspiracy-it%20-s-consensus

By Vladimir Bukovsky and Pavel Stroilov, this article takes apart Radosh’s critique, and in so doing, scares the shit out of me. These guys really know what they are talking about, whereas Radosh and the rest of the academic historians are engaged in a massive cover up. This is one of the best articles I’ve read on ANYTHING.; 9/29/13, 1:20 PM
iri said...: One little dandy bit of revisionism is turning Hitler into a right winger. But what the hell, they also turned Batman into a homo.

Words mean nothing anymore and that's why I believe ballots ain't gonna cut it. We're living history now and it's being revised on the fly.; 9/29/13, 1:28 PM

daniel_day said...: I'm no expert on the Pearl Harbor attack, but I'm skeptical of the "FDR knew and did nothing to prevent it" story. Even a failed Japanese attack would have infuriated the American public and convinced the Congress to declare war. What am I missing?; 9/29/13, 5:05 PM
iri said...: That's easy. You're missing the inside look into the hearts, minds and souls of people that can't defend themselves. Some people got it and some people ain't.; 9/29/13, 5:22 PM
Wabano said...: The worst bit of revisionism is turning a bunch of flaming faggots into homophobes...Hitler and company were all katamites and their struggle with the communists was bears versus twinks.

If it were possible to form a state or an army exclusively of homosexuals, these men would direct all their emulations toward honors, and going into battle with such a spirit would, even if their numbers were small, conquer the world.

Plato, from Banquet (In Konrad Heiden’s Der Fuehrer, 1944:741)

It remains characteristic of the Germans, that they, outwardly the most brutally masculine of all European peoples, are the most homosexual nation on earth.

Skoonj said...: Daniel Day, James J. Martin's article has nothing to do with "FDR knew and did nothing to prevent it". You might find the article interesting.; 9/29/13, 5:42 PM
