First they came for the Nazis And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Nazi

Then they came for the Antisemites And I did not speak out

Because I was not an Antisemite

Then they came for Hamas...

One must stipulate that a civilized educated German systematically murdered over one million children only eighty years ago. Having so stipulated, I would observe that David Irving paints a nuanced picture of his behavior in "Hitler's War". I would also observe that when one sees Hitler screaming in front of a microphone, that was 1% of his total speech, and that most of his speeches were spoken and not shouted. He seldom "ranted and raved". You do nor hypnotize 30 million people by yelling at them.

David Irving….where do I know that name from? Ah yes, the famous Holocaust denialist. I’ll be sure to check him out. Thanks Yuri!

I looked him up! Here’s a quote I came across…"probably the biggest friend the Jews had in the Third Reich, certainly when the war broke out, was Adolf Hitler. He was the one who was doing everything he could to prevent things nasty happening to them." That’s exactly the kind of nuance I’m looking for. I always knew, contra the elite “historians”that Hitler was a friend of the Jews. Thanks Yuri!

He was highly respected prior to his Holocaust revisionism. His books are excellent nonetheless. We don't need Mr Irving to understand the Holocaust. And he is by no means a denialist.

He is a revisionist not a denialist.

Thanks Joe, it's nice to know what lands. I guess you're saying the rest of it didn't, but that's okay, thanks for the feedback.
