There are still people around from WWI; I do not view that as a recent event either...

I personally don't see it as a religion, or a sacred cow that cannot be touched. If someone had concrete evidence that the Holocaust was a big scam and/or they were doing so without some hateful agenda, I'm sure Europeans would be more than happy to review it.

How do you convince the EU you do not have a 'hateful agenda?' This is the problem...

The thing is, the Holocaust was pretty well documented and Holocaust Deniers have about as much of a case as Moon landing deniers, from what I've observed. The "best" anti-Holocaust claim I've heard is something like "It wasn't 6 million, it was 3 million", which is still a pretty ridiculous point.

How are they deniers if they admit 3 million were killed? Maybe you should revise your labels; they make little sense.

"Zionist speech", whatever that is, most likely does not openly call for hating and killing Palestinians. I have a feeling that such talk would be illegal under hate speech laws in Europe, but I'll admit I'm not entirely sure.

Your feelings and fact are two different issues; pro-Israel sentiment is not banned in Europe though thankfully unpopular in many circles.

Why would I do that? I believe the Holocaust happened.

Consider it an experiment; a test of a theory so to speak.
