Joost Niemöller (born 25 February 1957) is a Dutch writer and former journalist.

Biography

[edit]

Niemöller graduated as a Dutch scholar from the University of Amsterdam in 1981.

He then started as a journalist at various media companies, including De Pers, De Groene Amsterdammer, Nieuwe Revu, De Dagelijkse Standaard and HP/De Tijd.

In 1984, he made his debut with the short story collection De dood, de stad, de rug tegen de muur. Five more novels would follow afterwards.

Personal publications

[edit]

In 2010, Niemöller started his own weblog, De Nieuwe Realist. From then on, Niemöller would slowly share more outspoken opinions and conspiracy theories.

His participation in the NCRV program Lunch! was terminated in 2013 after a controversial publication on his blog.[1][2]

In 2014, he wrote a book about the MH17 incident in which – against general consensus – he places responsibility on Ukraine.[3] Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Niemöller has remained faithful to the Russian view of a "special military operation".

In February 2016, Niemöller attracted controversy[4] when he stood up for the freedom of speech of the convicted Holocaust denier and anti-Semite David Irving, whom he called, in addition to an anti-Semite, "one of the most important historians of WWII".
