In June 2007 Japanese Holocaust denier Richard Koshimizu founded the Independence Party of Japan.
The homepage of the party propagates antisemitic and Holocaust denial propaganda, such as: "9-11
was generated by secret Jewdom", "9/11 was a hoax", "the American Jewish government killed its
own people" and "not even one Jew was killed in the gas chambers of Auschwitz"
(http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8249834850366562921).
Koshimizu intends to present his arguments in a public debate on the Campus Plaza in Kyoto;
however, the ADL has requested that the mayor prevent his appearance, as inflammatory speeches
are forbidden on the city-run Plaza.

Richard Koshimizu claims no Jews were murdered during World War II, and that
Hitler was funded and protected by Jews. Anti-Semite political activist to
deliver public speech at State-funded venue this week

TOKYO ？ A Japanese political activist who holds radical anti-Semitic views,
Richard Koshimizu, has set up a political party named "Independence Party,"
and is planning to deliver a public speech in the city of Kyoto this week.
Koshimizu operates a website in which he claims that no Jews were murdered
during the Holocaust, and that only 60,000 Jews died of diseases
in the war. According to the site, Adolf Hitler was the grandson of Solomon
Meyer Rothschild, and the Nazi dictator's rise to power was funded by
Rothschild and other Jewish corporations.
On the site, Koshimizu writes that Hitler fled to Argentina at the end of
the war and after he saw that his objective ？ the establishment of a Jewish
state ？ had materialized. He lived there until 1980, protected by the Jewish
community, the site states.
The site goes on to claim that Jews were behind the 9/11 terror attacks,
and behind the dropping of the atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Israel handling matter 'quietly'
Koshimizu's site would not have attracted so much attention had it not been
for his plan to carry a speech at a place called Campus Plaza, which is run
by a state-funded organization, the Kyoto University Union.
A senior Israeli Foreign Minister official confirmed to Ynet that the site
is genuine and that Kushimozo will apparently deliver the speech on June 9.
According to the source, the speech is part of the campaign to raise support
for the new party.
The official stated that Jerusalem was handling the matter carefully and
quietly, in order not to give publicity to the man and the views and party
he was promoting.
He added that the Japanese government was unable to prevent the speech,
for freedom of speech considerations, and that such a ban could even have
the opposite effect of contributing to Koshimizu's media exposure.
The Japanese Foreign Ministry said in response, "Although the venue of the
talk seems to be a room inside the building administrated by the Consortium
of Universities in Kyoto, the Consortium itself seems to have nothing to do
with the event, except lending that room.
"And anyway, according to Japanese laws, non-profit foundations such as the
Consortium of the Universities in Kyoto are totally independent bodies from
the Japanese Government, even though their establishment should be approved
by the Governmental ministries concerned."

Dear Richard Koshimizu,
I don't expect you to heed anything that I say nor do I expect you to ever change your
views for any reason, but I feel that it is important that I express my views.
You are absolutely insane. Your single-minded hatred for the Jews has led you to twist
every fact and ignore all opposing evidence so that you can be happy and content with
your opinion that the Jews can be blamed for every single problem in the world ever.
For one, it is such a childish and ignorant response to allow ourselves to believe
that a single entity or organization is responsible for all of our problems. Doing
so makes things easier for us because it's easy to focus all of your hatred on one
thing and to blame all problems on one thing. However, what you're doing is making
a scapegoat of the Jews. Scapegoats are rarely if ever responsible for the actions
that people say they are.
How about twisting the facts? You claim that the 6 million death toll in the holocaust
is a myth and you support your argument by waving around an "official" german document
that shows that only 346,003 jews were ever held in Auschwitz. That may be true, I'll
admit that. However, you're so narrow-minded that you seem to forget the numerous other
concentration camps that were actively eliminating Jews during WWII. Also, the holocaust
was not restricted to merely concentration camps. Even before the concentration camps,
Jews were simply taken into the forest, shot, and then buried in mass graves.
The psychological trauma of executing so many by hand is what led the Nazi's to develop
the gass chambers and concentration camps to more efficiently do the job. Also, those
Jews that weren't taken to the camps were often crammed into isolated Ghettos where the
Nazi's would lay seige to them, set fire to the ghettos, or simply gun them down in the
streets. I don't see how people can actually believe that the holocaust never took place
or, even worse in my opinion, that the holocaust was really a minor event set up by
the Jews to cover their true intentions.
Lastly, you are an idiot. One user, in a blatant use of sarcasm, said:
"You have a Japanese last name, so that must mean you are a noodle sucking, squinted eyed,
rice farmer, whose people bombed pearl harbor (oh wait, did the Jews do that too?)"
You in your unparalleled retardedness entirely missed his sarcasm and responded by saying
there's a very good chance that the Jews did actually cause pearl harbor. Can't you see
that he was mimicking your blatant stereotyping and scapegoating!? He was making fun of
you, you psycho! How can you believe that every Jewish person in the world is involved
in a secret worldwide takeover plot!? The shear logistics of that make it impossible.
What would you tell me if I said that a sixth of the world's population was responsible
for everything bad that had ever happened ever and that they were actively involved in
a takeover plot? You'd think I was insane. Oh wait, but no it's not a sixth of the world's
population, it's actually all of the Jews. Yeah, that makes perfect sense now.
