Woodbridge Township School District<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 represents a rare look inside the mind of what I see as a modern day Holocaust denier. In some ways, the case is reminiscent of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hdot.org\/trial-materials\/\">Irving v. Penguin and Lipstadt<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 a Holocaust denial case famously portrayed in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt4645330\/\">2016 movie \u201cDenial\u201d<\/a>\u00a0and written about in a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.harpercollins.com\/9780062659651\/denial\/\">book<\/a>\u00a0of the same name.<\/p>\n<p>In that case, Emory University history professor Deborah Lipstadt was sued for libel in a London court by author David Irving, a well-known writer about WWII. Irving filed the libel suit after Lipstadt wrote a book called \u201cDenying the Holocaust,\u201d in which she called Irving \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2001\/04\/16\/blood-libel\">one of the most dangerous spokespersons for Holocaust denial<\/a>.\u201d A British court ultimately tossed out Irving\u2019s suit, finding that he had\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2000\/apr\/12\/irving.uk1\">\u201cpersistently and deliberately misrepresented and manipulated historical evidence\u201d<\/a>\u00a0in order to portray Hitler in \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/books\/2000\/apr\/12\/irving.uk1\">unwarrantedly favourable light<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now here I was some two decades later, being called upon to serve as a witness against a schoolteacher trying to get his job back after being fired for doing essentially the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>My grandparents were Holocaust survivors.

I had to work to keep my emotions in check and focus on the business at hand.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Denial makes news<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>My involvement in the case against Mr. Ali began in November 2017 when I got a phone call from a lawyer who was representing the Woodbridge Township School District. I had sent an email earlier in the year to the district about my study of how textbooks portray the Holocaust and officials there remembered my note.<\/p>\n<p>Woodbridge officials had fired Mr. Ali, who was teaching students to question the Holocaust and who was also pushing 9\/11 conspiracy theories. Mr. Ali was now suing the district for illegally firing him\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/patch.com\/new-jersey\/woodbridge\/woodbridge-teacher-fired-over-9-11-conspiracies-sues-district-alleges-anti\">over his race and religion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Ali had first made headlines in September 2016 after a news station\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pix11.com\/2016\/09\/28\/exclusive-woodbridge-high-school-teacher-removed-after-911-conspiracy-links-found-on-his-school-web-page\/\">discovered several 9\/11 conspiracy links<\/a>\u00a0on his school webpage.<\/p>\n<p>After speaking with the Woodbridge district lawyer, I was sent several hundred pages of depositions, student work and lesson plans to review. I was also asked if I would serve as an expert witness in the case.<\/p>\n<p>One particularly memorable student paper in the documents was called \u201cA Gas Chamber Full of Lies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have all been taught that the Holocaust was a time of hate, and that Hitler used the gifts he possessed for absolute evil, but is that really the case? \u2026 Is the death of the Jews completely justified? No, because nobody deserves to die, regardless what they\u2019ve done. But are their deaths really completely unjustified either?\u201d read an excerpt.<\/p>\n<p>Another student stated that the Jews imprisoned in concentration camps \u201chad a much easier and more enjoyable life in the camps\u201d and that \u201ceven though they were not at home, they felt like they were.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Ali\u2019s pedagogical folly was not limited to the Holocaust. He also shared links to stories that asserted that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/egyptian-daily-us-planning-911-style-attack-using-isis-early-2015-%E2%80%93-it-did-using-al-qaeda\">9\/11 was a conspiracy between the CIA and Mossad<\/a>. The stories had headlines like \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/tv\/saudi-scholar-abdallah-al-yahya-jews-are-cancer-woe-world-if-they-become-strong\/transcript\">The Jews are like a cancer, woe to the world if they become strong<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Confronted with this evidence, I decided to serve as an expert witness in the case.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Taking on a \u2018content specialist\u2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.theconversation.com\/static_files\/files\/610\/Rich_Response_to_Ali_v_Woodbridge-1.pdf?1558706975\">a report<\/a>\u00a0to the court, I pointed out how \u2013 during a deposition \u2013 Mr. Ali made numerous factual errors and had a lack of knowledge about the Second World War and the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Ali did not know basic facts, such as the name of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/Erwin-Rommel\">General Erwin Rommel<\/a>, one of the most prominent German generals of the war. He also was ignorant of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nobelprize.org\/prizes\/peace\/1986\/wiesel\/biographical\/\">Elie Wiesel<\/a>\u00a0or Wiesel\u2019s classic book \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.scholastic.com\/teachers\/books\/night-by-elie-wiesel\/\">Night<\/a>,\u201d perhaps the best-known account of the Holocaust by an Auschwitz survivor.<\/p>\n<p>These giant gaps in basic factual knowledge, I told the court, came along with what I described as a \u201cworrisome awareness of arcane, conspiracy-related details, a classic case of losing the forest for the trees in historical terms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy allowing his students to investigate assertions, myths, and logical fallacies as if they are real, Mr. Ali created the space for denial to grow,\u201d I wrote in my report. \u201cThis allows the idea of \u2018maybe there is more to this than I was told\u2019 to bloom.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Where free speech stops<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In Mr. Ali\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cases.justia.com\/federal\/district-courts\/new-jersey\/njdce\/2:2017cv02210\/346734\/32\/0.pdf?ts=1556702477\">case<\/a>, he alleged \u2013 among other things \u2013 that he had a First Amendment right to share materials that he saw fit.<\/p>\n<p>When he was asked whether he taught his students to \u201cquestion the facts as to whether Hitler chose to brutally abuse, take advantage, starve and murder Jews for absolutely no reason at all,\u201d Mr. Ali responded that he taught his students to \u201cquestion everything.\u201d And when he was asked if he encouraged his students to \u201ccome to different views than the traditional understanding of what World War II and the Holocaust and Hitler were about,\u201d he stated: \u201cYeah, it\u2019s called debate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But United States District Judge Madeline Cox Arleo disagreed. She\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cases.justia.com\/federal\/district-courts\/new-jersey\/njdce\/2:2017cv02210\/346734\/32\/0.pdf?ts=1556702477\">ruled<\/a>that the school district, not the classroom teacher, \u201chas the ultimate right to decide what will be taught in the classroom.\u201d Except for a procedural matter unrelated to his teaching, she tossed out the various claims in Mr. Ali\u2019s lawsuit, saying that he failed to show he was fired for anything other than the reasons given by the school district \u2013 not his race or his religion like he claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Ali is not done with this fight. Even though a judge tossed out his lawsuit, on May 28 he filed an appeal,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.theconversation.com\/static_files\/files\/612\/Plaintiff_s_notice_of_appeal.PDF?1559155553\">court records show.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Conversation reached out to Mr. Ali and his attorney, Nicholas Pompelio, but did not get a response.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t doubt that Mr. Ali has a story to tell. I can\u2019t speak to his\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/patch.com\/new-jersey\/woodbridge\/woodbridge-teacher-fired-over-9-11-conspiracies-sues-district-alleges-anti\">claims<\/a>\u00a0that he was subjected to an \u201canti-Muslim attitude\u201d at work, or that the school district didn\u2019t seem to have a problem with his 9\/11 conspiracy theory lessons until a TV station started reporting about it.<\/p>\n<p>All I know is that when it comes to what Mr. Ali either let or encouraged his students to believe when it comes to Hitler and the Holocaust, his lessons weren\u2019t just wrong, they were dangerous.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bio: <\/strong>Jennifer Rich is an Assistant Professor; Director, Rowan Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Rowan University<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first set out to research how the Holocaust was being depicted in textbooks in New Jersey\u2019s public schools, my hope was to see what students were being taught about the\u00a0systematic state-sponsored killingof 6 million Jewish men, women and and children.
