negationisme wat betreft de jodenvervolging, laat ons wel wezen. Je mag nog altijd ontkennen dat de Turken in 1915 Armeniërs hebben uitgeroeid, dat de Belgen de helft van Kongo hebben uitgeroeid, dat de Rode Khmer zowat de helft van Cambodja heeft uitgemoord,...

Waar moet de uitbreiding van de negationisme en de revisionismewet volgens jouw eindigen ?

Volgens mij kan ze enkel eindigen in een totaal verbod om de standaard- geschiedschrijving ( die altijd subjectief is omdat ze nu eenmaal door mensen geschreven wordt ) in vraag te stellen.

Van mij mag ze eindigen daar waar de huidige wetgeving ze bepaald heeft: verbod op ontkennen of minimaliseren van de holocaust tijdens WOII. Ik ben geen vragende partij voor alle andere genocides.

Normaal gezien zou de negationismewet overbodig moeten zijn, maar zoals je weet wenst de Nieuwe Orde zich wit te wassen van alle zonden van het verleden om haar revival op te poetsen. Dat is de enige reden waarom dergelijke wet hier bestaat en waarom ze ook in andere landen bestaat.

The Americas

(begun around 1492)
The long-term extermination, sometimes systematic, sometimes not, of the natives of South and North America by Europeans is estimated to be one of the largest and longest in history. As summarised PrintLink("http://www.religioustolerance.org/genocide5.htm", "at this site")at this site

...Various estimates of the pre-contact Native population of the continental U.S. and Canada range from 1.8 to over 12 million. Over the next four centuries, their numbers were reduced to about 237,000 as Natives were almost wiped out. Author Carmen Bernand estimates that the Native population of what is now Mexico was reduced from 30 million to only 3 million over four decades.

European persecution of Natives started with Christopher Columbus' arrival in San Salvador in 1492. Native population dropped dramatically over the next few decades. Some were directly exterminated by Europeans. Others died indirectly as a result of contact with introduced diseases for which they had no resistance...

Later European Christian invaders systematically murdered additional Aboriginal people, from the Canadian Arctic to South America. They used warfare, death marches, forced relocation to barren lands, destruction of their main food supply -- the Buffalo -- and poisoning.

Quick Summary not found for this subjectCongo Free State, prior to its being taken over by Quick Facts about: Belgium
A monarchy in northwestern Europe; headquarters for the European Union and for the North Atlantic Treaty OrganizationBelgium to form the Belgian Congo Under the rule of King Leopold II, the Congo Free State suffered a great loss of life due to criminal indifference to its native inhabitants in the pursuit of increased rubber production.
Exploitation of the Dutch East Indies, French Indochina, German Southwest Africa, Rhodesia, and South Africa paled in comparison to that in what later became the Belgian Congo. The most infamous example of this is the Congo Free State.
King Leopold II (of Belgium) was a famed misanthropist, abolitionist, and self-appointed sovereign of the Congo Free State, 76 times larger geographically than Belgium itself.
His fortunes, and those of the multinational concessionary companies under his auspices, were mainly made on the proceeds of Congolese rubber, which had historically never been mass-produced in surplus quantities.
Between 1880 and 1920 the population of the Congo halved; over 10 million "indolent natives" unaccustomed to the bourgeois ethos of labor productivity, were the victims of murder, starvation, exhaustion induced by over-work, and disease.
Mass-murder or genocide in the Congo Free State became a cause celèbre in the last years of the Quick Facts about: 19th century

Quick Facts about: Australia
A nation occupying the whole of the Australian continent; aboriginal tribes are thought to have migrated from southeastern Asia 20,000 years ago; first Europeans were British convicts sent there as a penal colonyAustralia

The Australian Aboriginal Population was decimated when the Caucasian population moved in. Many died from disease introduced by those settlers and some were shot. During the White Australian Policy, it was expected that Australian Aboriginal population will slowly fade out. The removal of Aboriginal children from their families by the Australian government is considered by some to have constituted genocide, using the argument that it falls within the ambit of Art. 2(e) of the Genocide convention. There is also a converse argument that the removal of Aboriginal children was intended to protect, rather than exterminate them. See Quick Facts about: Stolen Generation
Quick Summary not found for this subjectStolen Generation and Quick Facts about: Keith Windschuttle

It was legal for the settler to shoot natives on the spot and many died from disease introduced by those settlers. The last surviving group was transferred to a colony on a small island and all of its members died out slowly due to neglect. Their languages are entirely lost and most of their cultural heritage are gone, though people of mixed decent still insist on spiritual connection to the land.

Quick Summary not found for this subjectBritish General Dyer

Soon after Dyer's arrival, on the afternoon of April 13, 1919, some 10,000 or more unarmed men, women, and children gathered in Amritsar's Jallianwala Bagh (bagh, "garden"; but before 1919 it had become a public square) to attend a protest meeting, despite a ban on public assemblies. It was a Sunday, and many neighbouring village peasants also came to Amritsar to celebrate the Hindu Baisakhi Spring Festival. Dyer positioned his men at the sole, narrow passageway of the Bagh, which was otherwise entirely enclosed by the backs of abutted brick buildings. Giving no word of warning, he ordered 50 soldiers to fire into the gathering, and for 10 to 15 minutes 1,650 rounds of ammunition were unloaded into the screaming, terrified crowd, some of whom were trampled by those desperately trying to escape. According to official estimates, nearly 400 civilians were killed, and another 1,200 were left wounded with no medical attention. Dyer, who argued his action was necessary to produce a "moral and widespread effect," admitted that the firing would have continued had more ammunition been available.

Indian National Congress Party's genocide of Sikhs in 1984

More than 4,000 Sikh men, women and children were slaughtered by Congress Party hoodlums in November 1984. In Delhi alone, 2,733 Sikhs were burned alive, butchered or beaten to death. For three days and nights the killing and pillaging continued without the police, the civil administration and the Union government, which was then in direct charge of Delhi, lifting a finger in admonishment. The Congress was in power, and senior Congress leaders like HKL Bhagat and Jagadish Tytler, led from the front directing their thugs, while the entire council of ministers twiddled their thumbs. Rajiv Gandhi, having ensconced himself as prime minister, later sought to justify the terror unleashed by his party.
