Loser HitlerHITLER'S REPUTATION IN TATTERS

Holocaust 'inexcusable' says Judge

 

THE German war leader Adolf Hitler has had his reputation finally destroyed after a lengthy high court action.

In a two-hour judgement Mr Justice Cocklecarrot described the Fuhrer as a "formerly respected statesman who has allowed himself to fall prey to right-wing obsessions and racist ideologies".

"His early work showed great promise," said the judge, "and he helped to create employment and build autobahns and Volkswagens. However, I have to conclude that Mr Hitler has ended up as a man with no respect for the truth who came to believe all the lies that David Irving told him." After the hearing Mr Hitler said he would appeal.

Website fact: The stamina of the defence team was aided by a six million dollar fund provided by Stephen Spielberg, Edgar J Bronfman, and the American Jewish Committee, which enabled them to pay 21 lawyers and "experts"; the experts like Evans, Longerich were paid up to £109,000 each to testify as they did (while the defence's star legal team was paid considerably more). Nobody was paying for Mr Irving, who has been fighting this battle for three whole years. Nobody was paying for Mr Irving, who has been fighting this battle for three whole years. Nor did he pay his defence witnesses one cent or sous: they testified from conviction, not for reward. [Help!]
