Well, looking back over the thread it seems that there were a couple of different issues - one being historical revisionism per se, the other being the laws in some EU countries criminializing such attempts at revisionism.

First of all, I personally have no problem with legitimate historical scholarship. Secondly, criminalizing 'revisionism' is a dangerous and misguided policy, it may lead to criminalizing legitimate historical inquiry.

I prefer to let people make their own arguments freely and let them be judged in the court of public opinion.
