David Irving Gets 3 Years

Black N Red | 20.02.2006 18:54 | Anti-racism

Veteran Nazi hisorian and life-long Holocause denier David Irving is starting a jail-term in Austria.

Despite humilitatingly recanting on his revisionist views on the Holocaust, veteran Nazi historian David Irving, was today starting a 3 year jail term in Austria, where Holocaust denial is a criminal offence.

In spite of all the evidence to the contrary, Irving, who has addressed countless fascist rallies and meetings throughout his career, has always denied the "Holohoax" took place.

In a week where, strangely, fascists seem to be conveniently shedding their anti-Semitism, Irving told the court, ""I made a mistake when I said there were no gas chambers at Auschwitz." He had pleaded guilty to the charge, based on a speech and interview he gave in Austria in 1989.

As usual, we can expect Irving's Hitlerite supporters, who would deny 'free speech' to the rest of us, to try to wring sympathy out of well-meaning, but misguided liberals.

Anarchists do not believe in imprisonment, but they do not support terminal cancer either. Nonetheless, many will be chuckling about the latest mishap to befall this pompous fascist, who has really got off lightly. One day, justice may come, and it will not involve a jail cell, but a well-aimed bullet.
