I am becoming a fan of P. David Hornig who just wrote the first article of 10 : The Ten Worst Purveyors of Anti-semitism World Wide. The first one is David Irving quoted below: “If you read the memoirs of Churchill or Eisenhower or de Gaulle, they don’t mention it at all. It never happened as far as they were concerned.” In around 1970, he adds, the Jews were “advised by a PR firm to give it one name, stick to that name, and stick to those figures and gradually you’ll make billions out of this. That’s what happened.” Perhaps what is most striking in this story are the fervent assertions by both Evans and Justice Grey that Irving knows what he is doing: systematically distorting the historical evidence, with which he is familiar, to fabricate repugnant lies. Irving, apparently, wouldn’t have been content to be a decent, respectable historian in an academic department, and instead seized—successfully—on a path to much greater renown. That said, it is clear that Irving genuinely reveres some of the twentieth century’s worst butchers, while at the same time achieving widespread notoriety by claiming their butchery never occurred. It’s a strange, convoluted form of evil. pjmedia/lifestyle/2013/09/29/the-ten-worst-purveyors-of-antisemitism-worldwide-10-david-irving/?singlepage=true
