Iranian Press: Gilad Atzmon is a Holocaust Denier

gehrig | 19.01.2008 14:25 | Anti-racism

Atzmon: the written history of the Second World War and the Holocaust are a 'complete forgery, initiated by Americans and Zionists.'

There's a new article in the Iranian state-run news outlet "PressTV" about the Holocaust denier Sylvia Stolz.

Stolz called the Holocaust "the biggest lie in world history" during her legal defense of Ernst Zündel and then, during her trial for violating German hate speech laws, she tried to defend her position by quoting none other than Gilad Atzmon.

Here's what Iranian PressTV had to say about Atzmon: "Stolz has reportedly read a newspaper article to the court about the appearance of world renowned Israeli artist, Gilad Atzmon in Bochum. In a public statement, Atzmon is quoted as having said that the written history of the Second World War and the Holocaust are a 'complete forgery, initiated by Americans and Zionists.'"

 http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=38848&sectionid=351020604

It would seem that Holocaust deniers recognize their own.

Gilad Atzmon routinely dismisses his critics, including those who call him a Holocaust denier, as "Zionists." It's laughable when the "Zionists" in question have been anti-Zionist activists for decades. But I don't think even Atzmon is ridiculous enough to argue that the Iranian press is ZIonist-controlled.

Incidentally, turns out Stolz isn't just a Holocaust denier and lawyer for Zündel, but his girlfriend too.

According to the German Deutsche Welle: "The 44-year-old also signed a motion during Zündel's trial with 'Heil Hitler' and shouted that the lay judges deserved the death penalty for 'offering succour to the enemy' -- leading the court to dismiss her. But Stolz refused to leave Zündel, with whom she has also been romantically linked for several years, and had to be forcibly carried out of the courtroom."

Ah, the fans of Atzmon.

Obviously if it says it in a newspaper it must be true.

Might as well shut down the whole fucking project then and just get the Daily Mail delivered to our doors ...................... or maybe not .......

Sadly the zionists and crypto-zionists will have to live with the fact that it simply isn't true.
