Maybe he thinks his insistence in the face of his jail term will give him new found credibility. Agree Sapper! He's a prat!
I see his point now. "BRITISH historian David Irving has caused fresh outrage by claiming Auschwitz was just "a tourist machine". " The problem is he took the "Arbeit macht frei" title at face value and believes Auschwitz was a Kraft Durch Freude camp.

Za Rodinu, You called Irving a British historian, is that because he researches British history? I put on my tax returns this year, Military Historian because I research military history. Is there any harm in labelling Irving as a Nazi historian because he claims to research the Nazi Party?
This historian is funny, he denied the holocoust then he was arested for 3 years and now he is saying that there was holocoust but no gas chambers. Why they dont arest him for more 3 years he will say that there were gaschambers.
Some people just have to deny something that they have in their head that never happened. The same kind of silliness occurs over the moon landings. No matter how much evidence exists that the holocaust happened, it will never convince those that won't see to reason. tom
True, however it still amazes me the following idiots like this get.. and not just from the idiots like him!
I said something similar on another forum - called a denier a member of the "Flat Earth Society" - he had the audacity to complain about ME to the mods!
True, however it still amazes me the following idiots like this get.. and not just from the idiots like him! That's why it's up to guys like us and forums like this one to keep the truth out and help those who were there tell their stories. I know a Polish lady who survived a concentration camp (I don't know which one) because she was a good cook. Sadly, (maybe happily for her, who knows) she is slowly losing her memory in her battle with alzheimer's. tom

Irvings denial of the gas chambers was bas based upon the leutcher report ZUNDELSITE - LEUCHTER REPORT - TABLE OF CONTENTS
I must admit I have little time for those who deny perhaps one of the best documented examples of mass murder which has been witnessed. Irving is depending on a broken stick if he thinks Leuchter has preserved any scholarly integrity , his report has been utterly and completely refuted. Irving and co. now opts for "The Rudolf Report" , Germar Rudolf a "chemist" who has prepared a lengthy and pseudoscientific report which upholds Leuchter's work and is supposed to prove that gassing could not have taken place. In his libel action Irving used an affavadit from Rudolf based on his "report" to gain right of appeal , and the defendants went to great trouble and expense to present a rebuttal . Irving withdrew all his evidence without any explaination and his case folded . Rudolf presented in his report many scholars and experts to endorse his findings and to his great embarrassment it was proven that he was in many cases thanking himself - he simply invented a few experts. The "science" of his work in itself was flawed.
Hows does he propose the Germans (I hate to lump a whole nationality with this) killed millions and millions of innocent people? It seems logical that as morbid as it sounds, gas chambers were the most cost and time effective method. P.S I haven't read the Leuchter report or any of madman Irvings work.
Has Irving ever set foot inside a Concentration Death camp? There are enough still standing as monuments to mans inhumanity to man. Perhaps the next time he is arrested he can be escorted around one! Tom
