Why is it that "Holocaust denial" is a crime in many otherwise "free-speech" countries? I mean, you can say the earth is flat and the sky is green. I could say crazy things - slavery never happened, and you could show me all the clear evidence that it did. That's the way it works.
The truth doesn't need protecting. So why is this the one and only historical inquiry that is ILLEGAL? And yes, they throw legitimate, credentialed historians in prison for questioning the Holocaust. It is the only historical event as such.

In all seriousness this is a legitimate question that needs to be dealt with -- but the chances of people accusing you of anti-semitism is probably gonna be pretty high no matter how you cut it.
