Countries that ban questioning of the Holocaust Myth limit speech in other ways, such as banning so-called "hate speech".

There is a difference between common law countries, such as the United States, Ireland, and most British Commonwealth countries, and civil law countries, such as Scotland and most mainland European countries.

IIn civil law countries, the law is generally more bigoted and parochial. The judge acts as an inquisitor, gathering and presenting evidence as well as interpreting it.

The principle that the efforts of Holocaust questioners should be protected by the universal right to free speech, was used in 1992 by the Hungarian Constitutional Court when it rejected a proposed law against Holocaust denial.

Laws against Holocaust denial are violate the European Convention on Human Rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This, however, is completely ignored by the Globalist European Union and United Nations.

The author Noam Chomsky says,

“It seems to me something of a scandal that it is even necessary to debate these issues two centuries after Voltaire defended the right of free expression for views he detested.”

Historian Deborah E. Lipstadt argues,

“I am a firm opponent of laws against Holocaust denial. First of all, I'm a fierce advocate of the First Amendment… I don’t want politicians making a decision on what can and cannot be said. That scares me enormously.”
