MEMRI translates an article from Al-Liwaa Al-Islami — Egypt’s ruling National Democratic Party’s paper — that uses western Holocaust-deniers as sources to claim:
this lie [about] the burning of the Jews in the Nazi crematoria has been disseminated throughout the world until our time in order to extort the West and make it easier for the Jews of Europe to hunt [sic] Palestine and establish a state on it, in disregard of the most basic principles of international law and the right of peoples to independent life without occupation. [This lie] was raised [also] so that [the Jews] would receive financial, technological, and economic aid from the West.
David Irving, Arthur Butz, and some French Holocaust deniers are the ‘academics’ that inform this vile piece.
