Slaying the ghosts of Jewry's past "...He had himself initiated what proved to be his humiliation. He sued author Deborah Lipstadt and Penguin, the publisher of her book Denying the Holocaust, for libelling him as an anti-Semite. Earlier this month, he secured the opposite of what he desired -- a judgment from Judge Charles Gray, ruling in Britain's High Court, that he had "persistently and deliberately manipulated historical evidence," that the criticisms of him in Prof. Lipstadt's book "were almost invariably well-founded" and that he is "a racist who associates with right-wing extremists who promote neo-Nazism." |

History Wins, Irving Loses Controversial historian David Irving loses his libel suit and is branded a pro-Nazi falsifier of history |
| The American Prospect - Apr. 24, 2000 |
The Banality of Irving There was that part of him that could not believe what was happening--that, regardless of how the judge ruled on the libel case, Irving was losing his argument on the history--even as it occured. It is the corner David Irving has painted himself into, where even his hope is a form of denial. |

David Irving: Still in denial Justice Grey, however, found otherwise. Irving, he wrote, is "not a historian but a falsifier of history" who is driven by a clear ideological agenda and "distinct pro-Nazi bias and anti-Jewish bias." The judge ruled that Irving is "a right-wing, pro-Nazi polemicist" engaged in a "deliberate ... falsification of the historical record ... consistent with his own ideological beliefs." |

The judge found Irving's explanations for his writings "tendentious . . . unjustified . . . specious . . . distorted . . . fanciful . . . hopeless . . . disingenuous . . . [and] a travesty." "It appears to me," Gray also wrote, "that Irving qualifies as a Holocaust denier . . . . Irving is anti-Semitic . . . . Irving is a racist. . . . Irving [is] a right-wing pro-Nazi polemicist." The irony is Gray's findings are even stronger than the words Lipstadt had written. |

Irving loses Holocaust libel case "{...} Mr. Justice Gray said the charges he had found to be substantially true were that "Irving had for his own ideological reasons persistently and deliberately misrepresented and manipulated historical evidence". That "for the same reasons, he had portrayed Hitler in an unwarrantedly favourable light, principally in relation to his attitude towards and responsibility for the treatment of the Jews". The judge said he found that Irving was "an active Holocaust denier; that he was anti-semitic and racist and that he associated with right-wing extremists who promoted neo-Nazism". The judge said there were certain defamatory imputations which he had found to be defamatory of Irving, but said that in his judgment the charges against him which had been proved to be true were of "sufficient gravity" for it to be clear that the failure to prove the truth of other matters did not have any material effect on Irving's reputation.
