9400 In response to recent criticisms of his
upcoming visit to several Nazi sites in Poland,
including the Treblinka death camp, David Irving
says, "I shall be saying nothing anywhere which
violates any laws; on the contrary, I am mildly
worried I may upset the more revisionist of our
guests with my statements." Popular journalistic beliefs
notwithstanding, Mr Irving does not deny that many
people were murdered in the Operation Reinhardt
camps, of which Treblinka is the most notorious. On
recent visit to Treblinka in July of 2010, he said
"There can be no doubt at all that the Nazis did
murder hundreds of thousands of Jews by machine
gunning them into pits all along the eastern front
and in the Aktion Reinhardt camps, of which this
camp, Treblinka, is one." [See
YouTube video, link in right hand
column] On the same visit Mr Irving also
acknowledged the many Polish heroes and resistance
workers who were executed at the camp. David Irving's interest in Treblinka and the
other Reinhardt camps stems from his current work
on Heinrich
Himmler's biography. Irving's research
has led him to believe that Himmler was "the brains
behind the operation" and was responsible for the
mass killings. |
