Malkin and Pipes 'Turning Japanese' over Internment

As a self-described mean-spirited crank, I have a certain love/hate relationship with so-called "Revisionist history." It's great for laughs, and provides hours of amusement at the authors' expense. But, while often laughable, the act of rewriting well-established history can't be entirely dismissed as antinomian masturbation: history is rarely as open and shut as pop historians would like us to believe.
