Why is anyone even asking this question?  The level of ingorance that one has to have to doubt it happened - only serves to perpetuate the root causes of this holocaust and create more in the future.\n\nSee the movie The Man in the Glass Booth, about Eichmann's trial in 1966.  If you get to travel in Europe, go see the sites of Sobibor, Auscwitz, Treblinka, Madenek, Dachau, read up on Babi Yar in Russia and talk to any Jewish person from Europe.

The Holocaust is the name applied to the state-led systematic persecution and genocide of the Jews and other minority groups of Europe and North Africa during World War II by Nazi Germany and its collaborators\n\nThe Jews of Europe were the main victims of the Holocaust in what the Nazis called the "Final Solution of the Jewish Question". \n\nThe commonly used figure for the number of Jewish victims is six million, though estimates by historians using, among other sources, records from the Nazi regime itself, range from five million to eleven million. Many non-Jewish people were killed as well.

Try reading The Diary of Ann Frank.  That would give you some idea.  Schindler's List is a movie that tells a true story of a German who protected Jews.  If they were caught many of the same things happened to them as happened to the Jews.  \n\nIf there is a Holocaust Museum in your area try to visit it.  There is an excellent on in St. Petersburg, FL.\n\nI've attached some websites that should help you.

It is legal in at least some instances in every country except Chile, El Salvador, Malta, and the Vatican City. The site below has much more detailed information.

I think this is more an opinionated question.  But the least corrupted country i have been to is Iceland.  People there do not carry guns or lock their doors, no one has murdered anyone in the last 20 years.

The only place that researching the Holocaust may be forbidden is in Muslim Countries that wish to believe that it never happened and do not want researchers proving their stand otherwise.  It is a subject that is studied extensively throughout the rest of the world in order to learn to recognize what causes this kind of activity in order to keep it from happening again.

China.\n\nNo government will admit using torture, but it goes on in almost every country. The important point is that Is the use of torture limited with low-rank people-isolated cases? Or Is the use of torture a certain systemic policy?\n\nI like colorful and interesting face of Chinese culture. China is a great country with a remarkable history. However, deep rooted torture culture has a considerable place in that greatness and torture still remains widely in use in China.\n\n“ Amnesty International’s 2001 report on torture in China documents its use at all levels of society: Torture is widespread and systemic, committed in the full range of state institutions, from police stations to ‘re-education through labor’ camps, as well as in people’s homes, workplaces and in public. Torture is carried out by police and other security officials, tax and fine collectors, judges, prosecutors, court clerks, party leaders and leaders of villages………..Police routinely arrest and torture those they suspect of prostitution or vagrancy…… …In Tibet and in Xinjang Uighur Autonomous Region ( XUAR), political dissidents are routinely tortured.”  (2003, History of Punishment, Lewis Lynos)\n\nMost of the European countries and USA has also an ugly torture background not only regarding the dark age or during slavery or colonialism but in the recent history also. But at least in these countries,today, there is a certain effort to put an end (though nowadays I am quite doubtful about it because of latest USA policy ) \n\nAnyway, according to me, China still seems to be the country that torture mostly used and unfortunately, seems to be unwilling about producing a determined policy and showing an effort to prevent it.\n\nWorld Report 2006 / China\nHuman Rights Watch\nhttp://hrw.org/english/docs/2006/01/18/china12270.htm\n\n\nChina torture 'still widespread' \nBBC News /2 December 2005 \nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4491026.stm\n\n\nTorture - A Growing Scourge in China\nAmnesty International / 12 February 2001\nhttp://web.amnesty.org/library/Index/engASA170042001?OpenDocument&of=COUNTRIES%5CCHINA\n\n\nCountry Reports: China and Tibet\nHuman Rights Watch\nhttp://www.hrw.org/doc?t=asia&c=china

The only way that they could find him guilty of it is that they have a law against it.  They could not possibly found him guilty and fined him if it were not against the law.  They side with the newspapers for the sake of freedom of speech, which is also a law throughout most of the Western World.  The fact that Europe has laws in many countries against speaking out and denying the Holocost is because they had concentration camps in their countries and many of their citizens were either killed or worked there.  These laws are on the books in these countries out of respect for what has happened in History.  This is not a difference of Muslim and Jew, these are two completely different things.  The Muslim belief that the Holocost is a myth is unfounded, however that is the way you feel.  It just happens to be against the law to talk that way about it publicly in some countries.  The cartoons that has enraged the Muslim world were not meant to be religious cartoons but political statements, it happens that they were in bad taste because Muslims are not wanting to look beyond the insult of their Prophet's Image being used.  That is a problem when you are dealing across different cultures.  In hindsight I am sure all involved with these cartoon's wish they had never happened and most will not allow that to happen again, however in our culture we allow for these kind of things when dealing with freedom of the press and speech.

He was a professor of History (as I remember it).  Who happens to be one of those people who deny the Holocaust.  He has been for a while, I guess he just did it in the wrong place this time.

They don't want trouble.\n Doubt about Holocaust for Jews is something like Mohammad cartoons for Muslims, they are sensitive about it so it's better to be gentle and accept their limits.\nThe only government involve in holocaust was Germany and they have confessed that they did it and they don't want more problem, so they ban their scientists.

First, it is spelled "Holocaust."\n\nThere are two conflicting version on it. According to the one popularized in the English-speaking world, the Holocaust was carried out in a systematic manner by Hitler and the German secret police, state police and army since the start of the war. According to this version, six million Jews died.\n\nThe other version is more current among other countries, including Asian, Eastern European and Latin American countries: the Holocaust happened during the last year of the war, when the German army was retreating in all fronts and they didn't have enough effectives to take care of the prisoners held in concentration camps. So the thousands of Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals, etc. who died did so because no one could give them food or water.\n\nIn this version, the total number of dead was under the million, and the total number of Jews who died was between 100,000 and 600,000.\n\nSeveral details support the second theory: the statistics from the World Almanacs of those years report a population of about nine million Jews in Europe before the start of the war. The totals reported in 1949 and after still report similar numbers. In certain regions, mostly the Soviet Union, the increase was significant. The difference corresponds to the increase in Jewish people in both the UK and the USA.\n\nIn fact, comparing the numbers from the census of 1935-1939 with those obtained in 1949-1952, it is impossible that the numbers of Jews killed during WW2 could have been greater than a million. Not even an extreme change in their birth rates could justify that.\n\nAnother little piece of evidence comes from pictures of the concentration camps: the supposed gas chambers, that were fashioned as showers, are not hermetically sealed buildings. In order to asphyxiate/poison thousands of people with cyanide pellets dropped through vents, you needed a way to seal the chambers. That way was not found.\n\nThe ovens were used to process the dead. Considering the elevated numbers of dead people from the camps once food and water stopped arriving, it is understandable that the guards tried to get rid of the bodies as soon as possible, in order to prevent the spread of disease (what would affect them as well).\n\nThe Holocaust was horrific, even though its magnitude has been greatly exaggerated in English-speaking countries. One cannot justify that something like that could be done by people to other people.

Sometime there is, it is called 'Statute of Limitations'.  Not sure about law as it applies to refugee's though.
