फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
The IHR gas chamber reward (which requires hard evidence) was never pursued by Mermelstein. The IHR gas chamber reward is no longer offered, since it proved to be more of a lawsuit magnet than PR tool.
The judge ruled: 'Under Evidence Code Section 452(h), this Court does take judicial notice of the fact that Jews were gassed to death at the Auschwitz Concentration Camp in Poland during the summer of 1944,' and 'It just simply is a fact that falls within the definition of Evidence Code Section 452(h). It is not reasonably subject to dispute. And it is capable of immediate and accurate determination by resort to sources of reasonably indisputable accuracy. It is simply a fact.'
In 1988 Mermelstein brought another suit against IHR, which he lost.

Ms. Teitler: I'm afraid there's no help we can give you.
Anti-Defamation League man #2: There is no way for you to get satisfaction, Mr. Mermelstein.
Mel Mermelstein: Satisfaction? What I want is justice.
Anti-Defamation League man #2: Any legal satisfaction. This letter is not actionable, which means there are no means to take them into court. Of course, ah, I mean a real court, a United States court, not their kangaroo court.
Ms. Teitler: Let me tell you something you probably already know: Now, the Institute for Historical Review is part of an ongoing germ; it's a network of professional liars and haters who get pleasure out of telling their horrible lies.
Anti-Defamation League man #2: Um hum.
Ms. Teitler: That there was no Holocaust. Now, to some people, people who need to hear this kind of smut, it unfortunately has some kind of appeal. We know them. We know what they are doing. Now let me tell you something you probably don't want to hear: You would be folish to pay any attention to this letter, Mr. Mermelstein, you would be playing right into their hands.
[she continues]
Mel Mermelstein: How do you mean?
Anti-Defamation League man #1: The whole challenge is phony; they don't want the truth. They'll stack the deck against you.
Mel Mermelstein: But I could tell what I saw with my own eyes in the camps. I could bring witnesses.
Anti-Defamation League man #1: They'll ridicule you and your witnesses.
Ms. Teitler: All you would accomplish by responding is to give them exactly what they want. They want the publicity.
Anti-Defamation League man #2: Yeah, if you give them the recognition they are looking for, they win; ignore them, you win.
Mel Mermelstein: Now just a minute. You can't see threw my jacket but when you say 'Ignore them', I get goose bumps, I get a shiver, 'cause that's exactly the same words that the wise men in my town in Munkacs, Hungary said when the Nazi's started to spread their lies.
Ms. Teitler: Mr. Mermelstein -
[interrupted]
Mel Mermelstein: Please! Please! Please! Don't give me this 'Ignore them' business because I know where that ends!
