USA – ADL: Newspaper’s interview with holocaust denier “an embarrassment for Spain”

Calling it “an embarrassment for Spain,” the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) voiced outrage at the publication of an interview with notorious Holocaust denier David Irving in the leading Spanish newspaper El Mundo, which identified him as an “expert” on World War II.

“There is no reason to believe that the editors of El Mundo were deceived by David Irving, whose bona fides as Holocaust denier are well-known around the world,” said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director and a Holocaust survivor. “Irving is the propagandists’ poster boy, and yet El Mundo presented him as a so-called ‘expert,’ as if his abhorrent views were credible. This sends a terrible message, legitimizes Holocaust denial, and is an embarrassment for Spain.”
