Holocaust Revisionism at Williams College
(Reason) David Bernstein - In the Williams College episode, the "genocide against Palestinians" trope, regarding a population which has had among the highest population growth rates in the world, whose standard of living improved dramatically during the Israeli occupation but before Oslo gave them (limited) self-rule, is a great example of people believing something because they want to believe it, regardless of the facts. This particular trope can only really be explained by a pathological hostility to Israel that often has a strong anti-Semitic component.
