[QUOTE="The%20Holocau$t%20Industry:687093"][edit] The Holocaust Industry by Norman Finkelstein See main article: The Holocaust Industry The Holocaust Industry: Reflections on the Exploitation of Jewish Suffering was published in 2000. Here, Finkelstein’s declared aim was to 'restor[e] the integrity of the historical record and the sanctity of the Jewish people’s martyrdom' by documenting what he called a campaign of blackmail by 'a repellent gang of plutocrats, hoodlums and hucksters' engaged in a shakedown operation on German and Swiss banks on the pretext of obtaining compensation for the victims of the Holocaust.[20] The book met with a hostile reception in some quarters, with critics charging that it was poorly researched and/or allowing others to exploit it for antisemitic purposes. For example, according to Israeli journalist Yair Sheleg, German historian Hans Mommsen disparaged the first edition as 'a most trivial book, which appeals to easily aroused anti-Semitic prejudices.' [21] Finkelstein also had his supporters however. Raul Hilberg, widely regarded in his life as the doyen of Holocaust researchers,[22] said the book expressed views Hilberg himself subscribed to in substance, in that he too found the campaign to get funds, in the manner Finkelstein describes, 'detestable.' Asked on another occasion if Finkelstein's analysis might play into the hands of neo-Nazis for antisemitic purposes, Hilberg replied: 'Well, even if they do use it in that fashion, I'm afraid that when it comes to the truth, it has to be said openly, without regard to any consequences that would be undesirable, embarrassing.
