Michael Anthony Hoffman II (born 1957)^[1] is an American conspiracy theorist^[1]^[2] and Holocaust denier.^[2]

Biography[edit]

Hoffman was born to a Catholic family in 1957 in Geneva, New York.^[1] His father, the chief of physical therapy at Clifton Springs Hospital, was German-American.^[1] His mother was Italian-American.^[1] According to biographical information on the back cover of his book Judaism Discovered, Hoffman studied at the State University of New York at Oswego under Dr. Richard Funk and Dr. Faiz Abu-Jaber, father of Diana Abu-Jaber.

Hoffman was reportedly taught at an early age about William Morgan, whose disappearance in 1826 resulted in the formation of the Anti-Masonic Party.^[1] He said that he learned from his maternal grandfather that elections in the United States were rigged by organized crime.^[1] From this, Hoffman was said to have deduced that "[n]othing is as it seems to be," which in turn led to a "life long vocation, researching the subterranean workings of the occult cryptocracy's orchestration of American history".^[1] He has worked on the projects of neo-Nazi Tom Metzger and of the Holocaust deniers Willis Carto, David Irving, Ernst Zündel, and Herman Otten.^[3] He has served as Assistant Director of the Institute for Historical Review, a Holocaust denial organization.^[4] He has also edited the work of alternative publisher Adam Parfrey.^[5]

Hoffman claims to have operated an organic farm and to have lived among the Amish for several years. In 1995, Hoffman moved with his family to Idaho.^[1] There, he hoped to establish a museum that would detail the "Communist holocaust against Christians" (i.e., the persecution of Christians in the Soviet Union), "the holocaust against the Germans", (i.e., the bombing of Dresden and other major German cities in World War II), and the "Holocaust against Japan" (i.e., the incineration of Tokyo and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki).^[1]

Views[edit]

Economics[edit]

Hoffman is the author of Usury in Christendom: The Mortal Sin that Was and Now is Not (2013), in which he argues that Jewish money-lenders have been scapegoated by gentile and Christian usurers in order to deflect attention from Renaissance Roman Catholic and late Protestant usury banking.

Holocaust[edit]

Hoffman has been called a Holocaust denier by some sources such as Michael Barkun of Syracuse University.^[2]^[6]^[7] Hoffman's one full-length work on the topic is The Great Holocaust Trial: The Landmark Battle for the Right to Doubt the West's Most Sacred Relic. This book, published in 1985, rather than elaborating a Holocaust denial thesis itself, provides a sympathetic account of the 1980s Canadian trials of Ernst Zündel. At the time, Zündel was required to appear before the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal for "spreading false news", by distributing the Holocaust-denying pamphlet Did Six Million Really Die? in Canada. Hoffman's book argues that Holocaust denial material should be completely legal to publish.

For a time Hoffman was the assistant director of the Institute for Historical Review, known for its Holocaust denial works. Hoffman has been criticised by Stephen A. Atkins, an academic from Texas A&M University Libraries who specialised in extremism and terrorism. In his 2009 book, Holocaust Denial as an International Movement, Atkins claimed that Hoffman's newsletter Revisionist History promotes Holocaust denial.^[6] Atkins also claimed in this work that Hoffman has denied the existence of the gas chambers, advanced antisemitic conspiracy theories, and contended that "the real Holocaust of World War II was deaths caused by the Allies."^[6] In the 1990s, Hoffman propagated his views online, via newsgroups.^[7]

Cryptocracy[edit]

Hoffman is the author of Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare which outlines his conspiracy theory of a shadow government or "cryptocracy"^[1] that gains power through manipulation of symbols and twilight language. Examples of such "psychodramas," in Hoffman's view, include Route 66 (which connects various centers of occult significance), and the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, in which Hoffman sees ritualistic elements.^[1] The theory of masonic symbolism in the assassination of President Kennedy was first articulated by James Shelby Downard, with whom Hoffman co-authored King/Kill-33 which became the inspiration for a song by Marilyn Manson.^[8]

Hoffman also states that the gnosis of this ruling cabal is slowly being revealed through movies such as They Live and The Matrix and other forms of symbolic and subliminal communication.^[1] Hoffman has appeared on the Alex Jones radio show to discuss his theories. In a 2002 lecture in Sandpoint, Idaho, Hoffman analyzed the 9/11 terror attack in terms of human alchemy and psychological warfare^[9]

More important is his understanding of the tenets of mind control, and the fallacy that exposure of the methods of a criminal undertaking represents an important step "toward overthrowing the power of the cryptocracy." The perpetrators typically let the truth emerge—The Revelation of the Method—strengthening their hold on the subject population.^[10]

Criticism of Judaism[edit]

Following on from the work of earlier Christian polemicists, such as Johann Andreas Eisenmenger and Alexander McCaul, Hoffman is a critic of the religion of Orthodox Judaism and has learned to read Hebrew as part of his research. In particular, Hoffman's works have taken aim at the Babylonian Talmud, and that Orthodox Judaism is a racist, supremacist creed. Hoffman claims that the Talmud itself is anti-semitic in its oppressive micro-management of Jewish lives.^[11]

Hoffman believes that most Ashkenazi Jews are not descended from the Biblical patriarchs, but from the Khazars. Examples of his hyperbole in discussing Jews; is found in his discussion of the libel charges in the case of Irving v Penguin Books and Lipstadt as "another revisionist weed pushing itself up through hairline cracks in the Jewish concrete that covers our planet."^[12] According to Mattias Gardell: "Antisemitism is prominent... in the worldview of Michael Hoffman II".^[1]

Slavery[edit]

Hoffman is also the author of They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold Story of Enslavement of Whites in Early America.^[13] According to Derrick Jensen, Hoffman is "overtly racist" and "attempts to make the case that the enslavement of whites by commercial interests in Britain and the Americas was worse than the enslavement and genocide of Africans... perpetrated by those same interests."^[13] Jensen said "Hoffman's analysis is seriously flawed" but that "his scholarship is impressive, and the story he tells is both interesting and horrifying".^[13] In 2015, Liam Hogan writing in the British publication openDemocracy criticized Hoffman's scholarship in his essay "Irish Slaves - The Convenient Myth".^[14]

Publications[edit]

Hoffman is the author of these books:

The Great Holocaust Trial: The Landmark Battle for the Right to Doubt the West's Most Sacred Relic^[15]
They Were White and They Were Slaves: The Untold History of the Enslavement of Whites in Early America
The Israeli Holocaust Against the Palestinians (with Moshe Lieberman)
Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare
Judaism's Strange Gods
Judaism Discovered: A Study of the Anti-Biblical Religion of Racism, Self-Worship, Superstition and Deceit
Usury in Christendom: The Mortal Sin that Was and Now is Not
A Candidate for the Order (a novel)

Hoffman has also written the introductions for modern reprints, which he also published, of:

The Traditions of the Jews by Johann Andreas Eisenmenger
The Talmud Tested by Alexander McCaul, D.D.

Hoffman has written articles for the UK-based magazine Fortean Times,^[16] as well as the Lutheran newspaper Christian News of New Haven, MO, which is published by Otten.^[17] He has claimed to have worked as a reporter for the Albany, New York, bureau of the Associated Press. His principal research interests are historical revisionism, the alleged occult roots of Freemasonry, the command ideology of the Cryptocracy, Fortean phenomena, and the sacred texts of Orthodox Judaism.^[18]

He also wrote the script for the 1989 publication, Tales of the Holohoax which landed Simon Sheppard in jail.^{[citation needed]}

Кто такой "русский богослов В.М."?

Случайно обнаружил прелюбопытное.

***

Есть на Западе скандально известный "историк", заклятый враг иудаизма, близкий к ревизионизму Холокоста: Майкл Хоффман. У него есть сайт, ссылку на который не даю из брезгливости. Но в 2011 году он опубликовал обмен мнениями с вышеупомянутым "русским богословом", где тот отстаивал честь о. Бранта Питри (весьма достойного католического ученого, крупного специалиста в области иудейского контекста Евхаристии).

И вот тут мы наблюдаем нетипичное явление. С одной стороны, в моем понимании "В.М." - сам антисемит. И дело не только в "полном согласии, что Талмуд есть hateful book", а в самом факте дружелюбной переписки с Хоффманом ("дорогой Майкл..."). Антисемитизмом у нас не удивишь.

С другой стороны, В.М. читает достойных авторов, изъясняется на хорошем английском, причем таком, который выдает в нем человека из ученой среды, имеющего регулярные контакты с Западом.

Если последнее верно, то понятно желание укрыться под псевдонимом при публикации письма на сайте: респектабельную личину соблюсти хочется. Но кто же такой В.М.?

**

Совсем неформальное обращение звучало бы иначе: Hi, Michael. А здесь оно, скорее, полуформальное. (Полуформальна и подпись: Yours.) Люди не друзья, но есть определенная нота дружелюбия, пусть и дистанцированного. (И я бы еще предположил не первый обмен письмами.) В моем понимании Хоффман - человек из разряда "нерукопожатных" (что наверняка понимает и В.М., скрываясь под псевдонимом). Отсюда не следует, что ему нужно хамить. Но переход на дружелюбно-коллегиальное общение, на мой взгляд, недопустим.

Gleb Iastrebov Да сколько угодно - от Иоанна Златоуста до Розанова и нацистских теологов, среди которых есть видные имена... Но времена меняются. Антииудаизм в теологии и культуре, к сожалению, остался, но обрел сильно смягченные формы. Сейчас человек, имманентный кругу западной "академии" и изучающий Бранта Питри, с высокой вероятностью будет шарахаться от авторов типа Хоффмана, причем не из политкорректности, а совершенно искренне. (Впрочем, Хоффман и сто лет назад имел бы репутацию сомнительную.) Было бы интересно проверить такую догадку: на диалог с такой культурной маргиналией В.М. толкнуло влияние антииудейской струи в святоотеческой теологии.
