The annual ritual of making David Irving’s life miserable is about to begin again! Here’s a refresher: Every year the Holocaust denier and Hitler apologist David Irving comes out to the US from the UK, and attempts to hold meetings and talks to promote his notion that the Nazis were just misunderstood and they didn’t really kill over 11 million innocent people , six million of them the Jews they hated so much.  Just like a few years back, he intends to do a presentation glorifying Heinrich Himmler,

Himmler was arrested and was to stand trial for war crimes during at Nurenburg but committed suicide before he was even interrogated. David Irving's work concerning Himmler involved attempting to vindicate him for his role in the Holocaust.

Unfortunately for Irving, there are complications whenever he tries to hold such events, namely us and other antifa, who aren’t too keen on the whole advancing Nazism thing. As we have said in the past, it is one thing to defend Irving’s freedom of speech, but venues that are unwittingly forced to accommodate him because they are not aware what his event is about until the last minute, that’s an entirely different thing. Not only that, but defending the freedoms of those who use them to advocate taking them away makes it an obligation to call them out for doing so.

Irving has announced dates in May and June in over 30 cities across the United States, with possibly more to be added. That means you can expect the usual gaggle of neo-Nazis and white supremacists possibly convening in your community. Folks are no doubt going to work to oppose them, and we encourage everyone to take part and speak out!

A SUMMARY

David Irving is a British writer who has been involved with the fascist political scene since the 1960s. Always known for the pro-Hitler bias of his books, approximately two decades ago Irving made the transition to being a fully-fledged Holocaust-denier, when he testified at the trial of neo-Nazi Ernst Zündel in Canada, and also arranged the publication of Fred Leuchter's widely-refuted report on gas chambers at Auschwitz. In addition to spreading blatant historical lies, Irving has publicly stated that "The Jews are the architects of their own misfortune." Unsurprisingly, Irving was a popular speaker at neo-Nazi rallies in Germany - until he was banned from the country. In 2006, Irving was jailed in Austria after pleading guilty to a charge of "trivializing the Holocaust," which is a crime in that county. Since his release, Irving has been marketing himself as a former "political prisoner."
