By now we should all be used to the Right's use of the millions of Holocaust victims, as political footballs against Democrats. But, for some of us, getting used to it is hard.

I attended Camp Havanagila, a Zionist summer camp in the Catskill Mountains, when I was young, and so, it seems, did Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Would Ben Stein hear out Ahmadinejad on the Holocaust the way Glenn Beck heard Stein out on his anti-evolution film? Fair and balanced, anyone?

Ahmadinejad's Israel-bashing, Holocaust-denying statements are bizarre, yet well calculated ploys to distract. We would be well served to remember that he is doing this for a reason. What we should not do is take the bait.

Those of us who covered Israel's three-week Operation Cast Lead in Gaza are not surprised by the findings of the U.N. commission's report accusing both Israel and Hamas of war crimes.

Buchanan must be held publicly accountable for facilitating the dissemination of toxic hate speech that, as the Holocaust Museum shooting reminds us, can have tragic consequences.

If MSNBC's executives insist on retaining Buchanan as a fixture on their news channel, he must be clearly identified as an enabler of Holocaust deniers.

Buchanan's support for Holocaust denialism is ever-present, ongoing, and -- as his John Demjanjuk piece indicates -- very strongly stated. Yet NBC has done diddly-poo in response.

While the international community is busy excoriating Ahmadinejad for doubting whether 6 million Jews did in fact perish at the hands of the Third Reich, Buchanan's Web site is encouraging this very conversation.

It's inconceivable to stand in silent tribute to 6 million dead Jews while simulatenously empowering a man who wants to do away with 6 million live Jews in Israel.

It never crossed my mind that I would ever speak or write negatively about the work of a fellow filmmaker. I am sure the makers of The Reader are not deniers. But they are helping those who are.

Pope Benedict is cut from completely different cloth than Pius. It is time for this courageous leader to unequivocally denounce holocaust-denying bishops and morally compromised Popes.
