Historical revision

Historical revision is a continuous process involving the re-interpretation and modification of existing historical narratives in light of new or otherwise unknown, hidden or even suppressed evidence. As an academic discipline, it ought to be uncontroversial. However, in matters deemed potentially threatening by and to existing power structures, it can become very controversial indeed; so much so that there are Official Narrative's of major events which can only be questioned on pain of official opprobrium with all its attendant status and career risks.

The pre-eminent current (2012) example in this category is "The Holocaust". However, the entire history of the 20th century, particularly as it relates to the foreign policies of the victorious allied power of world wars I and II, is still ripe for substantial revision as more and more hitherto secret archive and other hidden and suppressed material becomes available to enterprising and brave historians.

The need for historical revision

The old adage that "... those who do not understand history are doomed to repeat it" is a confused but nonetheless revealing encapsulation of the problem facing those who question Official Narrative's. By definition, Official Narrative's are always misleading, in service as they are to powerful interests that they are held to legitimise - the bigger the interest, the bigger the misleading - and so it is with the biggest of all such interests: the victors version of the who, what, how and why of war. ANY threat or looming challenge to such a narrative will always meet the full force of its beneficiaries and is often destroyed by the encounter.

The following extract from James Hartfield's "Unpatriotic History of the Second World war" explains both the problem for would-be revionists and the pressing need for them clearly:

The official version of the history of the Second World War, and the more politicised ‘People’s War’ legend are profoundly ideological. They are in fact examples of ‘Victor’s History’ – as the Nuremberg and Tokyo War Trials were ‘Victor’s Justice’. They are ideological because they focus all criticism upon the Axis powers, and suspend judgment on the Allies. In these official versions of the Just War and the People’s War, the deaths of millions are justified for the greater good of ridding the war of dictatorship and militarism – even though the outcome of the war was the imposition of militaristic dictatorships over much of eastern Europe, the stabilisation of Fascist dictatorships in Spain and Portugal, the subjugation of millions to military rule in East Asia, and indeed in Germany. In the official version of history the atrocities carried out by the Axis powers come to be the emblematic features of the war, while those carried out by the Allies are dismissed as exceptional episodes, or even justified as the cruelties necessary to bring the war to a speedy conclusion. In the official version only the Axis powers have self-serving interests, while the Allies are motivated by moral exigencies. Racial suprematism and imperialist domination are faults that are never seen in the Allies.

The official version of the Allied War effort is so profoundly ideological that it violently misrepresents almost all aspects of the war. The official version is twisted and stretched to give the most extraordinary explanations of events that are would be quite easy to account for without it. To believe the official version, one must believe that the Atomic bomb saves lives; that the aerial bombardment of Germany was aimed at military targets; that the Nazis killed the Polish officers at Katyn though it was under Soviet rule at the time; that the Allies fought the war to save the Jews; that the Allied invasions of Iraq, Iran, Syria, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Vietnam, Korea and Indonesia were ‘liberations’. The truth creaks and strains under the constraints of the official version of the Second World War, and will keep breaking out, as evidence that there is more than is accounted for in the set texts.
