## Is the Diary of Anne Frank Genuine? (1982)

The Diary of Anne Frank. Robert Faurisson, a French literature Professor at the University of Lyon in central France, and an eminent "Holocaust" historian, proves that almost all of the "diary" was written by Anne Frank's father, Otto Frank. Documentation to support this truth includes the fact, among many others, that much of the manuscript was written with a ball point pen, the invention and wide-availability of which only occurred after the war. Ann Frank died of typhus in March, 1945, before the end of World War II. Possibly the one book that is read by more students that any other in America and also in classrooms around the world.

There have been subsequent claims of 'debunking' but they do not withstand scrutiny. The 'debunker' cherry-picks a few points, doesn't do a point-by-point rebuttal - it's no more debunked than [the 6 million myth](https://samisdat.in/books/six-million-open-gates). Read [this debunking](https://phdn.org/archives/holocaust-history.org/anne-frank/) and compare, especially the conclusion, which ends with an ad-hominem attack (italicized):

> I have **only commented on some** of Faurisson's internal criticism of the diary. This should not be taken to mean that the parts I excluded are unanswerable, **there is simply too much material to respond to every point**. *It is clear that the absurdities are not in the diary, rather the issue of absurdity should be laid squarely at Faurisson's door. His criticism of the diary is without merit and merely serves to undermine his credibility about his other investigations.*

Read it yourself. Think for yourself.

*UPDATE:*

- [Anne Frank Hoax: Finally, an Admission](https://nationalvanguard.org/2016/02/anne-frank-hoax-finally-an-admission/):

> But the Jews in charge of that book have never before admitted this obvious fact — until now. And the reason they’re doing it now is money. From now on, you’ll be hearing how Otto Frank, being very well-informed about his daughter’s experiences, was merely acting as her ghost-writer, putting in nothing other than what actually happened. The Jews won’t give up any more than they have to, in order to keep this financial resource productive for themselves.
> 
> The Wikipedia entry on the matter relates “In 2015 the Anne Frank Foundation made an announcement, as reported in the New York Times, that the diary was co-authored by Otto Frank. According to Yves Kugelmann, a member of the board of the foundation, their expert advice was that Otto had created a new work by editing, merging, and trimming entries from the diary and notebooks and reshaping them into a ‘kind of collage,’ which had created a new copyright. Agnès Tricoire, a lawyer specializing in intellectual property rights, responded by warning the foundation to ‘think very carefully about the consequences.’ She added ‘If you follow their arguments, it means that they have lied for years about the fact that it was only written by Anne Frank'”
