need to publicly repudiate
denial claims.
Rabbi Shel Schiffman, ex-
1 ecutive vice president of the
Synagogue Council, said the
deniers may have targeted
college campuses because of
the perception that students
in particular are inclined to
support what they perceive
to be anti- establishment
ideas.
But Dave Konig, executive
editor of The Quad, the
Queens College newspaper
that ran the advertisement
as an "editorial illustration"
alongside a refutation, in-
sists that the best tactic
against revisionists is to con-
front them head-on.
"On a university campus,
the whole goal is education,
and you cannot educate
through ignorance," Mr.
Konig said.
However, Mr. Schiffman
and others who have spoken
out strongly against such
tactics insist that editors
should just say no.
"If someone has stated

Mr. Schiffman said.
Mr. Schiffman added that,
ironically, Jewish editors
may be more likely than
their non-Jewish counter-
\-- parts to publish Holocaust
denial claims because of
pressure to appear impar-

This is the third joint
statement issued by the
Synagogue Council and the
Bishops Conference since
the two groups began
holding biannual meetings
in 1987.
Previous statements dealt

with moral education in
public schools and efforts to
help stem what they called
the proliferation of por-

Mr. Schiffman said the
statement reflects a deep
concern for Holocaust-
related issues among many
in the Catholic leadership,
as well as the warming of re-
lations between Catholics
and Jews since Vatican
Council II met in the
1960s.
