Edit: from his Wikipedia article he seems to be a massive Fanboy of Hitler, from childhood, rather than specifically interested in the Jewish question (except to argue Hitler had no knowledge of it and other members of Nazi leadership were responsible). His leading role in exposing the 1983 Hitler diaries as fake is also something I wasn't aware of. Hitler had no knowledge of it? That is one of the biggest lies I think I have ever heard. This solo statement in itself tells you 100% why Irving was a monster in his own right spreading these lies, and you can understand why people disliked him as well.I read once of someone who survived a camp who said they saw Hitler there visiting. He heard Hitler give an evil laugh asking how things were going. Basically how the genocide was going. I wonder even though the reports turned out to be untrue that the man is dead, maybe there is still a little grain of truth that his day is close at hand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
