Debunking the lies of
Sergey Romanov, Nick Terry, and the HolocaustControversies hate blog team!
Part 1
THE GOOD GUYS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BAD GUYS
Why Sergey Romanov has fabricated his "great lie," and why he
promotes hatred against Carmelo Lisciotto and Chris Webb of The Holocaust
Education & Archive Research Team.
Where it all began
In the beginning there was Carmelo Lisciotto, Chris Webb, and a
documented Internet troll named Sergey Romanov.
Carmelo Lisciotto is a well respected Information
Technology professional with over 26 years of international experience in his
field. Mr. Lisciotto's illustrious career includes working with a number of
highly recognized organizations such as the FBI, the National Security Agency,
Microsoft, Cisco Systems, the United Nations in Vienna, and other well-known
commercial entities many of which are household names. He has been asked to
speak on technology matters around the world and is often engaged as the subject
matter expert for a host of news organizations relating to technology or IT
security concerns. In other words the man is a pro and anyone who has ever had
the experience of working with him, for him, or even corresponded with him would
agree with this statement.
Chris Webb is a well respected Historian who has authored
several books about the Holocaust and is considered to be the foremost expert on
the Treblinka death camps by many International scholars. Chris maintains one of
the largest private Holocaust related photo archives in the world, and much of
what you see on the Internet today comes from is archive. Chris is the founder
and owner of the Action Reinhard Camps website
www.deathcamps.org (the very same site
attacked by Sergey Romanov, Nick Terry, Roberto Muehlenkamp and others).
Sergey Romanov is a known troll who has been visible on the
scene since the mid 1990's. Sergey Romanov is Russian born but attended
University in upstate NY, has family in Brooklyn and currently lives in Toronto
although he vehemently denies this. He still claims he lives in Moscow and
loves to hide behind anonymous proxy servers in order to remain hidden, but
we have his University transcripts, photos (that we can't yet reveal as we do
have standards), and other relevant information about the criminal Sergey
Romanov. His Internet proclivities tend towards skeptic groups and forums that
attack religious believers of all faiths, political conservatism, and left wing
anarchy sites, but he's run the gamut with everything from Holocaust denial to
Bigfoot and even UFO sightings!
A few quick examples of his activity in newsgroups that wasn't
deleted or removed for spamming (there are thousands of others)
So what's the connection?
Throughout the early to late nineties Mr. Lisciotto was a well
known volunteer USENET moderator policing the .alt groups in accordance with
USENET polices. Mr. Lisciotto, was one of the original members of the Internet
Software Consortium, Inc. the organization that maintains and publishes the
central Usenet moderators list and relays for moderated groups so individual
server operators don't have to track moderator changes, etc...
In this capacity, Lisciotto was often called upon to moderate
disputes, remove SPAM and trolling, and ban known USENET offenders. This role
certainly did not make him many friends among the spammers and trolls who would
often flood USENET with forged posts and inflammatory comments. Many of these
trolls would retaliate against Mr. Lisciotto by impersonating him in posts on a
number of sexual sites and religious groups simply to annoy or discredit
him.
Sergey Romanov often links to these SPAM and TROLL posts in his
fabricated lies in an attempt to make people believe that Lisciotto was a troll
and disregarding the fact he was the actual moderator deleted the spam and
trolling! (suggest Sergey do his homework next time and learn just who he's
lying about... Romanov was never known to be all that bright)
It was on USENET (newsgroups) that Mr. Lisciotto would inevitably
crossed paths with the notorious TROLL and hate blogger Sergey Romanov. Sergey
was/still is an emotionally insecure lad was obsessed with picking fights
and debating people on a number of topics from politics to peter pan! This
appears to be his way of receiving any form of respect (as warped as that may
seem), and it was during this period in the 90's that he loved to frequent
Skeptic forums, UFO sightings, religious forms, revisionist forums, Bigfoot
sightings, (all the typical loony sections of the ALT newsgroups), specifically
seeking out controversial topics and threads where he could at first make what
appeared to be a credible argument, but the real goal was to bait participants
into joining the discussion, and when he had earned their trust he would pounce
on them publicly in order to humiliate them!
Much like he still does today at
holocaustcontroversies.blogspot(dot)com - the LittleGreenFootballs forum, like
he did on RODOH for years, as well as CODOH, Axis History Forum and thousands of
others. (all are searchable on Google for users to learn for themselves)
!
Anyone who has ever had the displeasure of interacting with Sergey
Romanov knows exactly what we mean... (the guy is a nutcase).
Sergey Romanovs USENET SPAM and abusive posts were deleted by Mr.
Lisciotto on numerous occasions, and despite Sergey's best efforts to flood the
newsgroups, he simply couldn't match Carmelo Lisciotto's technical expertise to
issue USENET KILL FILES, and delete his trash.
Soon after in utter disappointment, Sergey left USENET for other
areas of the Internet (mainly infesting other Holocaust historical websites
provided the perfect forum for his nonsense), yet he never forgot his hatred
for Mr. Lisciotto, and from what we still see on Romanov's hate blog, that
hatred still exists to this day!
Sergey Romanov fancies himself a clever guy. He has fabricated an
intricate tale about the famous website
www.deathcamps.org and managed to lamely
weave in his own activity creating forged Holocaust photos, and documents into
his twisted narrative.
He created this bogus fabrication back in 2006 and posted it on
his Holocaust Controversies hate blog. This fabrication is complete with fake
emails, fake characters, impersonations, harassment, and smear campaigns, etc.
etc.
Yet if creating the bogus narrative wasn't enough, he then went
on to spam Wikipedia, and thousands of other blogs and forums with links to this
fabrication on his own hate blog, professing it to be evidence of his lies about
Lisciotto and Webb!
Can you believe that crap? This loon actually hopes that people
won't realize that he is the real author of the lying posts he links too, he
hopes that they will mistakenly believe they are written by a reputable author
or historian instead of an Internet kook and liar!
(More on this to come in the next section)
* We suggest that before anyone believes the lies of Sergey
Romanov, that they take a moment to research information about Mr. Lisciotto and
learn the facts. Posts about him or others on the Holocaust Controveries hate
blog are the lies of Sergey Romanov.
USENET links going back to the 1990's about Lisciotto or
professing to be about him are early Romanov attacks or the attacks of other
TROLLS that he banned during his days as a USENET moderator.
Our own extensive research has proven that Carmelo Lisciotto
has never engaged in public controversy, hate blogs, idiotic forums or Internet
based disputes. The negative propaganda put forth by Sergey Romanov and his
criminal associates is nothing more than lies, slander and libel. We would love
to see any evidence of Mr. Lisciotto or Mr. Webb engaging in despicable
activity, we will gladly review any credible proof providing its something more
than the lies of the loony Sergey Romanov.
When broached with the subject of these hate bloggers in a past
interview, Mr. Lisciotto rolled his eyes and made the following
statement:
"Sergey Romanov,
and the Holocaust Controversies crowd, however negative, are as much a part of
the technology new world order as those of us who prefer to see the Internet and
its resources used for the greater good.
An unfortunate
reality is that you can't simply have the good without the bad, and those guys
are pretty bad..."
-Carmelo Lisciotto
We say - "Bravo Mr. Lisciotto for your tireless efforts in
promoting a better Internet!
Sergey Romanov and his post USENET crimes
Several years passed without any further interaction between hate
blogger Sergey Romanov and Information Technology expert Carmelo Lisciotto, and
would probably have remained so if it weren't for strange circumstances
surrounding a common interest between these two individuals.
Mr. Lisciotto is himself a published historian with a passion for
World War 2 and military history, and the TROLL Sergey Romanov shares a similar
passion. The difference is Sergey Romanov chooses to pursues it with a much more
nefarious purpose. How you may ask?
Well sometime during his years of trolling newsgroups, Romanov
discovered that the topic of the Holocaust and Holocaust denial was a perfect
platform from which to pick fights and to attack others.
Having learned from his past experiences being banned and deleted
on USENET, he realized that being the aggressor often resulted in being
perceived as such, and this was not helpful to his trolling efforts. Yet if he
were to attack others from a position most would perceived as the "moral high
ground", then he usually stood a better chance of getting away with his attacks
without suffering a ban or deletion from the moderators.
Since Romanov lives for controversy (hence the name of his blog:
Holocaust Controversies, no coincidence there), this new approach of pretending
to fight revisionists was the perfect venue for him to grandstand, and bully
people online.
*Note: Sergey Romanov has never dared to bully anyone in person.
The guy is a measly 90 lbs soaking wet, yet is quite brave from the relative
safety of his apartment with his keyboard shielding him from the blowback of his
criminal actions.
Sergey Romanov has engaged in all sorts of disputes, he's
threatened people online, he's published private email exchanges, he's published
the names address and telephone numbers of those who have disagreed with him
publicly. He is connected to Cyber malware attacks, blackmail, theft, hacking,
and inciting others to engage in criminal acts. (If this weren't true we
challenge him to take HateBlogWatch to court for slander and libel, but he won't
because its all documented, and all true)
Yet he doesn't do all of these things alone! In his career as a
troll and hate blogger he has made a few friends!
So who in their right mind would pal around with an obvious
nutcase like Sergey Romanov you ask?
Well, other kooks, extremists, and hate bloggers that are just
like him! (Here are the main culprits)
Nick Terry (who lectures students at Exeter University) is
one such kook! Some say he's the mastermind behind the ARC attacks but this has
not been verified at this time... more about Nick Terry can be found
HERE
Roberto Muehlenkamp is another hate blogger pal... (Roberto
is a self-admitted manic depressive who suffers from psychological disorders,
and has been on medication for years, he admits this publicly on the Internet
and you can read more about this and him
HERE.
We know it's hard to believe but yet another Internet crazy and
associate of Romanov exists, this guy even co-founded the HolocaustControversies
hate blog!
Andrew E. Mathis (who has a PHD from Villanova... they must
be giving them away for free at Villanova). He is a well documented extremist,
and kook with a history of stalking people online, making threats, creating
controversy, harassing anyone who opposes him and is a pretty unpleasant guy. He
recently admitted to collecting IP's of his online opponents when he moderated
the RODOH forum years back, and also publicly threatened the life of the HEART
founder (Lisciotto).
More on Mathis can be found
HERE
As early as 2002 these four whack-jobs began pooling their time
and resources to launch a decisive smear campaign designed to attack any and
all Holocaust revisionist websites, forums, boards, blogs found on the
Internet. They would even visit conferences and heckle speakers, and distribute
literature linking to their hate blogs (
except Sergey Romanov of course, who
never dares comes out of hiding)
One of the key forums they attacked was revisionist web forum
CODOH
www.codoh.com and simple searches on
that site will reveal posts by these kooks going back as early as the turn of
the century. On CODOH you will find accurate representations of the style and
approach of the HolocaustControversies gang, yet there are thousands of pieces
of evidentiary and enlightening material about them available on the Internet.
It didn't take long for the fanatic foursome to make a name for themselves as
libelous nut jobs, and stalkers! The list of their new personal enemies amongst
revisionists, and even Holocaust scholars began to grow exponentially!
Yet with all their new found infamy, the four fools still felt
they were missing something... they had all the negative notoriety they sought,
but they still had no respect. It was Nick Terry who realized that if they
wanted to appear as credible fighters against Holocaust denial, what they were
missing was a credible foundation from which they could all jointly stand.
Romanov had no credible foundation to stand on because he chose to
remain anonymous, Nick Terry was on the cusp of some backing as he was currently
in process of conning his way into the USHMM fellows program, Mathis had
authored a few moronic fairy tale studies on King Arthur and mythology, and
Muehlenkamp had nothing going on his life other than being dumped by his
wife.
The Holocaust Controversies hate blog was born! There were a few
earlier iterations of the controversial blog (test runs) prior to what can be
found on Blogspot.com today. In the early days each of the four founders were
listed in the right side frame as owners/founders. They have since removed their
names from the hate blog due to negative press, and exposure by the
HateBlogWatch organization.
HERE
is an example showing what it used to look like (from the waybackmachine.org)
*Note - if you hover over the Action Reinhard Camps link in
this
archived
page from the Holocaust Controversies hate blog, you will see that it links
to a (now defunct) counterfeit version of that website with a hyphenated URL
www.death-camps.org proving the HC
connection to fakes, forgeries and counterfeits, and proof it was supported by
all the HC members! (more on this in the ensuing paragraphs)

Here is a recent screenshot of the notorious hate
blog today (try not to laugh to hard at the infamous cut and paste manifesto
they are promoting in the image LOL!)
Enter the Action Reinhard Camps website www.deathcamps.org & renowned historian
Mr. Chris Webb.
We have already established that Chris Webb is a well respected
Holocaust historian and is widely recognized as the global expert on the
Treblinka death camp. He maintains one of the largest private collections of
original Holocaust related documents and photos in the world. He has been
consulted by the BBC, NBC, ABC, the History Channel, the USHMM, Yad Vashem,
Bundesarchiv and the Auschwitz memorial.
Mr. Webb launched a website called ARC or the Action Reinhard
Camps and the URL was
www.deathcamps.org. The website was small
at first and he was soon approach by many volunteers who wished to be involved
in his new website.
*One of these people was the infamous Michael Peters of
Alfstedt, Germany. Peters approached Webb with a Treblinka model he had
constructed where he had received input from Treblinka camp survivor Richard
Glazar. It was later learned that Glazar who committed suicide was troubled when
he learned of the commercial nature of what Michael Peters wanted to do with the
model he provided information into. It is widely believed that this one of the
issues that pushed Glazar over the edge, but not verified.
Anyone who has ever met, or corresponded with Chris Webb soon
realizes the man is a friendly, trusting individual and its easy to understand
that he had no reason to suspect anything nefarious about Michael Peters and his
offer to contribute photos of his model to the ARC website.
They two became friendly and Peters joined Chris in the role as
model expert and CAD/MAP maker.
Webb's site began to grow. Aided by several member in the UK and
Poland he authored hundreds of pages and donated thousands of pictures from his
personal collection to the website. The ARC website was a gem, it predated
almost all other Holocaust related websites and this was the reason that Sergey
Romanov and his kooky friends coveted it!
But how could they get their hands on it? How could they steal it
from Webb?
The conspiracy to steal ARC was born!
The Holocaust Controversies gang conspired and schemed, they
wanted to take ARC from Webb, but knew they would have to find a way gain his
trust. Certainly they could offer to volunteer their time, and they did in fact
make such offers, they often pushed adding an anti-revisionist forum to ARC.
Chris Webb however had no interest in involving the ARC website
into a forum for attacking revisionists. His stance was always that: the
Holocaust happened and there was nothing to debate or deny.
So Sergey tried a new approach, he sensed the underhanded nature
of Michael Peters and decided to capitalize on it. Peters wasn't particularly
bright, and it was an easy matter for Romanov to manipulate him and corrupt him
to the Holocaust Controversies cause! Somehow Sergey Romanov got Michael Peters
to believe that Webb was too old fashioned and didn't understand websites and
how to use technology more successfully. He made Peters believe that ARC would
be better off under him, and perhaps even profitable! (as we stated earlier
neither Romanov or Peters are very bright)
*Note: It is now well known that Michael Peters
was always engaged in using the Holocaust for commercial gain. There are plenty
of emails on this topic, proving that Peters wanted to make a salary off the
Holocaust... in stark contrast to Chris Webb has been funding the ARC websit for
over 12 years and has the bills to prove it. (We thank the ARC members for
sharing these scanned documents with HateBlogWatch).
The plot thickens!
Regardless of who masterminded the plot to steal ARC, whether it
was Nick Terry or Sergey Romanov, what they did next was infamous. They created
a person!
Enter Andy Schmidt!
Andy Schmidt was another volunteer that approached Chris Webb in
the early days of ARC. The two had never met and only corresponded via email.
The relationship was cordial and mutually beneficial as Schmidt appeared to be
very interested in the exact same Holocaust related topics as Webb.
However what Webb didn't know was that Andy Schmidt didn't
actually exist. There wasn't a real Andy Schmidt. The man Chris Webb had been
corresponding with for months was in fact Michael Peters !
The Holocaust Controversies gang had concocted the plan to create
the fictitious Andy Schmidt persona and introduce him to Webb. Schmidt was
allegedly based out of Germany and had access to volumes of SS photos and
documents not publicly available. The Andy Schmidt deception came complete with
months of bogus email conversations, offers of assistance, praise for Webb and
his work, blah blah blah.
They played this ruse for months... building a repoire with the
trusting Mr. Webb, who being a genuinely honest person had no reason to mistrust
Schmidt. In fact it was the fact Schmidt character who had even volunteered to
perform some translation work from German-to-English for Webb on his published
version of the ARC website donated to the Wiener library.
What Webb didn't know is the translation work was actually done by
Michael Peters pretending to be Andy Schmidt. The ruse was so cleverly acted out
that Chris Webb even credited Andy Schmidt for his efforts in the book, without
realizing it was Peters! (this is the reason we believe that Nick Terry
masterminded the plot, because Romanov is too stupid to have come up with this
one..)
*
Note: Sergey Romanov often points to this publication of ARC
at the Wiener Library, in his fabrication of lies, his aim is to imply that
Chris Webb did something wrong by publishing his own work. Keep in mind that ARC
www.deathcamps.org is and has always
been owned, managed and maintained by Chris Webb. Copyrighted in the US, and EU
by Webb, etc.
Carmelo Lisciotto and how he became involved!
Chris Webb had made the acquaintance of Mr. Lisciotto in the
1990's at several historical conventions and the two often corresponded via
postal mail and later via email, usually around historical matters relating to
mutual interest World War 2 etc.
As Webb's ARC site began to take off and he began to be approached
by BBC and other new agencies to assist with documentary films and television
programs, he contacted Lisciotto and asked him if he would like to be involved
(this was approximately around 2002-2003).
Lisciotto declined at first, but after repeated attempts by Webb
to pull him in, he eventually became associated with Webb's ARC group.
Lisciotto acted as a technical resource and would assist Webb in
the proper composure of websites and later with setting up the structure for a
formalized non-profit organization that would be referred to as
"ARCFI" The Action Reinhard Camps Foundation International.
The idea was to create a legal entity to which Chris Webb would donate the
entire ARC website and much of his personal collection. News of this initiative reached the ears of Michael Peters who had
been secretly working behind the scenes with Sergey Romanov but if the website
was donated to an international foundation, they would lose all chances of
stealing it and they panicked!
So they concocted a plan that included the creation of fake
photos, and documents that they would push to Chris Webb via the fake Andy
Schmidt persona, they would then threaten to publicly expose Webb for dealing in
forgeries if he didn't relinquish ARC to them !
(proof of Sergey Romanov's black mail attempt is detailed via
an email from him to Webb and Lisciotto entitled the "ARC Deal" to be found in
Part 2)
In addition to the forgeries, they began another underhanded
activity of going through all of Webb's articles and replacing actual source
authors and information with their own names... (more on this later).
At this point Romanov was still scheming anonymously in the
background with Peters, but when he got wind of the fact that Chris Webb had
brought in Carmelo Lisciotto to ARC, he panicked even more!
He was afraid
Lisciotto would remember him from his trolling and spamming newsgroups on
USENET.
We are told from our ARC source that it was right around 2004 that
Lisciotto first mentioned to several members of Webb's group that he found many
aspects of Michael Peters personality to be a bit odd...
He raised a concern that Michael Peters had approached him vial
email in a scam to defraud the German government of tax revenues relating to an
Ebay scheme where he would purchase precious metals (specifically Palladium
bars) and have them shipped to Germany from the US, just to get around customs
duties and increase his profits.
(this is all documented via email, and EBAY auctions, we would
love to see them deny this!).
Of course Lisciotto would have nothing to do with such actions and
told Peters as much, and this began the first of many revelations about the
criminal nature of Michael Peters.
The scandal came in the Summer of 2004 when ARC conducted their
summer trip to Poland, and members of the team accompanied by guests, toured
Holocaust sites throughout Germany, Austria and Poland. On this trip was a
young American student by the name of Tim, (last name withheld) and his
father, who attended as the guests of Mr. Lisciotto.
On that trip Michael Peters made inappropriate sexual advances
towards young Tim, and almost caused an international incident! Things got so
bad that the boys father was ready to kill Peters, and Lisciotto had to whisk
the boy and his father off to Vienna halfway through he scheduled trip just to
get them clear of Peters before Tim's father was possibly arrested for
murder!
It was later discovered that this was NOT THE FIRST TIME Michael
Peters was embroiled in scandal that involved underage kids, he was also
investigated by the German authorities for accusations made by students at the
school where he was employed as a teacher (typical predator)!
*Note Michael Peters goes by the name HANS on the RODOH
and CODOH forums, as well as the Holocaust Controversies blog. Some pretty
nice friends Nick Terry, Roberto and Sergey Romanov pal around with!
It was after the ARC Poland trip and and in the winter of 2005
that Carmelo Lisciotto officially resigned from ARC due to the Michael Peters
scandals.
Lisciotto would have nothing to do with such people or activity!
Shortly after his resignation take a guess who is now sudenly introduced to
Chris Webb and the ARC group?
None other than Sergey Romanov, Nick Terry, and Roberto
Muehlenkamp!
WHAT A COINCIDENCE!
Lisciotto leaves and Romanov shows up!
Go figure!
No one in ARC now had any faith in Michael Peters, and with the
introduction of these new members from the Holocaust Controversies blog, people
began to become ever distrustful.
This was also the time many of the discrepancies began to become
noticed, the changes in source information, changes to the ARC bio and removal
of the ARCfi by-laws created by Lisciotto and ratified by Chris and owner and
the other team members. Stuff just began to disappear and the history of ARC was
slowly being rewritten on the pages of the website.
*Note: This only
began happening when Michael Peters had FTP access to the website which was
right about the time of the Andy Schmidt scandal.
All of a sudden and without warning, there was no further contact
from Andy Schmidt. Chris wrote to him several times without response. Nothing...
dead silence!
THEN BANG!
Emails begin circulating from Michael Peters and Sergey Romanov
that a forged photo sent by Andy Schmidt to Michael Peters was a forgery! Sergey
ran a scam where he posted questions about the photo on Axis History forum and
other sites inquiring as to authenticity. Michael Peters began to openly accuse
Chris Webb of harboring forgeries!
Keep in mind of course that Chris
owned ARC, he created it in 2002, and it was now 2006. If Webb wanted to fill
his site with forged photos why wait until the emergence of Sergey Romanov and
Nick Terry to start doing so.
Are you starting to see the pattern
here?
Of course Chris had nothing to do with the fake photos. They were
created by Romanov and Peters, at best all that Chris Webb is guilty of his
being trusting and for being duped by Sergey Romanov and Michael Peters with
the fake Andy Schmidt persona.
*Note we have postal envelopes sent to Chris Webb by Michael
Peters, and also some alleged to be sent by Andy Schmidt and professional
handwriting analysts were brought in to check it, and the hand writing of Peters
and the fake Andy is identical! (we have photos of this and legal reports should
Peters and Romanov choose to deny it in a court of law)!
By now Chris Webb had had enough of Michael Peters, Sergey
Romanov, Nick Terry and Roberto Muehlenkamp! He conferred with the remaining
honest members of ARC and they asked him to contact none other than Carmelo
Lisciotto to forensically investigate technical access to the ARC website files
and review of FTP logs to prove what Peters and Romanov had done!
The next day the entire ARC website was gone! DELETED!
DESTROYED!
Michael Peters heard of the plan to bring back Lisciotto, Sergey
Romanov panicked
d and told him to delete everything on the website and Peters did
so!
Chris issued an edict booting Peters and Romanov from ARC but it was already
too late, and thus began the vandalizing of the ARC website explained here:
http://www.deathcamps.org/arc/
However Peters is an idiot without technical knowledge and
certainly he was no technical match to Carmelo Lisciotto!
Lisciotto came in and was able to show the upload history and logs
detailing access to the site as coming from Peters home IP address!
Unfortunately that didn't help with the vandalized files in their formatted
versions, which were destroyed by Michael Peters in a mad rush to dispose of the
evidence.
Webb was forced to undergo a labor intensive and expensive project
to restore the ARC website!
In the meantime, Lisciotto, Webb had been working on a new website
with a new team they formed called the Holocaust Education & Archive
Research Team (H.E.A.R.T) and the website was called The
HolocaustResearchProject
www.HolocaustResearchProject.org
and this new group would focus on a broader study of the Holocaust encompassing
more detail than Action Reinhard.
During the restoration of ARC, Webb and Lisciotto posted a note on
the old ARC URL informing people of the new H.E.A.R.T website and included a
link to the site so there would be something at the
www.deathcamps.org URL for visitors to see,
while they rebuilding what Sergey and Peters destroyed!
Note: Sergey even posts about this in his litany of hate
smears against ARC and H.E.A.R.T
Immediately following the booting of Terry, Peters and Romanov
from the ARC group, a smear campaign was launched by Sergey Romanov (fully
sanctioned and supported by Nick Terry of Exeter) on the Holocaust Controversies
blog accusing Webb of dealing in forgeries and vandalizing his own website.
(question) Why would Webb vandalize his own
website?
Sergey Romanov immediately revealed himself to Carmelo Lisciotto
by sending him a series of harassaing and inflammatory emails, including several
forged emails he sent to Holocaust institutions and historians (claiming to be
from Lisciotto). Lisciotto then drafted a note to all parties apologizing for
the Sergey Romanov harassment and received hundreds of letters of support from
the USHMM, Yad Vashem, Scholars and historians in the US, UK, Germany and
Poland, explaining the Sergey emails, the vandalized website, the smear attacks
etc.
*Note A conveniently packaged zip file with all of the forensic
documentation was sent to many of the prominent scholars (most of which will now
have nothing to do with Nick Terry, Sergey Romanov or Roberto
Muehlenkamp).
But the Holocaust Controversies smear campaign against Webb was
doing nothing to give Sergey Romanov and Nick Terry what they really wanted,
which was full control of the ARC website, they could always attack innocent
people on the Internet, they've been doing that for years, (any quick Google
search on Sergey Romanov or Holocaust Controversies proves that). But they
wanted the website!
The Counterfeit ARC!
This was when Romanov had the brilliant idea of creating a
counterfeit version of Chris Webbs site and call it
www.death-camps.org (note the hyphen).
Michael Peters had created a backup copy of the real ARC
www.deathcamps.org and then registered his
hyphenated version through another one of his boy-toys in Vienna who he made the
registrar.
Then Peters went on a malicious campaign to change all Internet
Links on Wikipedia or other forums to reflect his counterfeit version, here are
some links showing this (there are literally thousands of these, here are just a
few)
ARC Restored!
In December of 2006 after over a month of being offline the
genuine Action Reinhard Camps website
www.deathcamps.org was fully restored!
You
can read more about the restoration, including the Wiki "deathcamps" link war
here:
The original ARC site restoration through the Holocaust
Controversies criminals for a loop! Now there were two version of ARC on line,
the real one, and the counterfeit with the hyphen!
What to do about this?
Well Chris Webb took the legal/legitimate route and had contacted
ISP's and Copyright authorities. While Sergey Romanov took the road of slander
and libel, preferring to attack (as usual) from behind the protection of
anonymity.
Have a read through this:
Sergey Romanov succeeded in nothing, while Chris Webb succeeded in
having the counterfeit version banned from Google searches, banned form MSN,
from Yahoo, and eventually Wikipedia! See proof:
Romanov and Peters were moving the counterfeit website from
country to country in order to keep Webb from having it legally removed. So Webb
& Lisciotto simply ensured it never appeared in any Internet search results
effectively rendering it dead, with no visitors!
(Way to go Chris & Carmelo!)
But Nick Terry of Exeter (Exeter officials must be truly ashamed
of that guy) openly supported the counterfeit version on the CODOH forum, on
RODOH, on the Holocaust Controversies hate blog too. Andrew Mathis was now
pissed off and began to take out his frustration on Carmelo Lisciotto, making
harassing phone calls, issuing a constant stream of threats and accusations
etc.
In the meantime, Webb began to go through the ARC site and cleanup
all the crap, fakes, lies, false sources, sub-sites that users were complaining
about, in particular Webb was receiving thousands of emails about Michael Peters
horrible Holocaust artwork and a subsite by a nutcase called John Ulrich Poulsen
dedicated to "Gates and Mottos" that were nothing but a veiled glorification of
National Socialism.
Webb removed all this crap and formally announced that ARC would
be archived indefinitely. That no new articles would be created, and ARC would
be maintained indefinitely.
The age of H.E.A.R.T
