Tichon said that one of its primary objectives is to convince countries to make the Holocaust illegal in the face of growing Holocaust deniers, including heads of state. He emphasized he was not referring only to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Tichon explained that laws against Holocaust denial would allow countries to place offenders on trial and help reduce the encouragement of anti-Semitic attacks, which earlier this month were aimed at synagogues in France and Lithuania. The Task Force also encourages appropriate forms of Holocaust remembrance.
Its member countries are Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States.

i have not ever denied the heartless killing of millions of people in NAZI extermination camps.
israel's law was passed 38 years after her founding.
So is this thread about free speech or Holocaust denial?
Is it about Holocaust denial laws or about any law which restricts freedom of expression?
Is it about who passed the first anti-free speech law or who passed the first Holocaust law?
Is it about keeping free speech free or Seal's need to blame the Joooos for everything?
