Pandora:
Irving turns tour guide By Alice-Azania
Jarvis
ENLARGE He's
done jailbird, and
he's
done author. Now, it
appears that the ever-sinister David Irving
is attempting life as a tour guide. The discredited historian, who once denied that
Auschwitz
existed to murder Jews, is
offering punters the chance to take a guided tour
of "Hitler's Headquarters and other historical
sites". For $2,900 (£1,900), says a
brochure for the trip, tourists will be given a
tour of wartime headquarters, including the
notorious "Wolf's Lair" in what is now Poland, and
a visit to Treblinka
death camp. Whether anyone will take the tour remains to be
seen; Irving declined to tell Pandora of any
interest. Even more curious is Irving's decision to
use a quote from Mr
Justice Gray's ruling at the Irving vs Lipstadt
trial in order to sell the idea. Mr
Justice Gray ruled that Irving had "manipulated
historical evidence"; Irving, though, cites
a
rather more positive version of the ruling, quoting
Mr Justice Gray on his website as claiming that his
"knowledge of World War Two is
unparalleled".
