We don’t blame Holocaust hoaxer Monique de Wael for making up the outlandish tale of her survival during the Holocaust that became a best-selling memoir. She, after all, is clearly deranged, and one may expect insane people to say insane things. No, what enrages Jewdar are the people who swallowed her delusional rantings hook, line and sinker, and more importantly, the people who have removed the Holocaust from the world of legitimate historical research. In a healthy environment, someone saying things like "when I was seven years old, a pack of wolves helped me travel across Europe to locate my parents in the Warsaw Ghetto" would be met with a healthy dose of skepticism and, after perfunctory research, shown to be lying. But throw the Holocaust into the mix, and–like the chef who Larry David couldn’t fire because he thought he was a survivor–not only can’t we criticize, we can’t engage in critical thought. The end result, of course, is that because we don’t engage in healthy skepticism at the onset, we give an opportunity for Holocaust deniers to engage in unhealthy skepticism at the end.
Still, if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. Coming next next year, Jewdar’s memoir about how Mengele’s experiments slowed our aging process to half the normal rate while we were still in our mother’s womb, which is why we still look like we’re in our 30s. We call it The Zygote of Auschwitz. Are you listening, Mr. Spielberg?
