Abbas quotes historian Raul Hilberg to support his allegations that fewer than one million Jews were killed.[13][14][15][16] However, Rafael Medoff of the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies denied the assertion that “The historian and author, Raoul Hilberg, thinks that the figure does not exceed 890,000”, and said this is “utterly false”. He wrote that “Professor Hilberg, a distinguished historian and author of the classic study The Destruction of the European Jews, has never said or written any such thing.”[12]
In the book Abbas raises doubts regarding the existence of the gas chambers, quoting Robert Faurisson, on the nonexistence of gas chambers.
So he doesn’t deny that the Holocaust happened…just that it was millions fewer deaths than reported, the Jews were a pivotal and willing part of the plan, and also there were no gas chambers. Cool.
@NounsAndWords yikes what a piece of work. According to your link he also claims the gas chambers were just “crematoriums” which is a ludicrous assertion to anyone who has seen them. Structurally they would be useless as crematoriums.
Holocaust denial is a terrible thing to perpetrate.
Are… are they the Nazis now?

I think the book of Joshua is a bit more on the nose, in this case. Gotta blot out those Amalekites, you know?
They’re not the Nazis. They’re the Nazis if they had absolute freedom to act in their region. They’re Americans.
Lots of downcopes from angry fascists and historically illiterate liberals
Whom among you can speak your disagreements? Don’t just sulk.
Fun fact: The Nazis were already writing wild west style stories for their children about the lands they planned to take from the Slavs.

No, the Nazis wanted to send the Jews to Madagascar, not Ireland.
This is interesting, I haven’t read it, but I think I might try to find a copy now
