Holocaust exaggerated: Gibson dad
From correspondents in New York
February 19, 2004

A WEEK before the United States release of Mel Gibson's controversial movie, The Passion of the Christ, the filmmaker's father has repeated claims the Holocaust was exaggerated.

Hutton Gibson's comments, made in a telephone interview with New York radio talk show host Steve Feuerstein, come at an awkward time for the actor-director who has been trying to deflect criticism from Jewish groups that his film might inflame anti-Semitic sentiment.

In his interview on WSNR radio's Speak Your Piece, to be broadcast on Monday, Hutton Gibson, argued that many European Jews counted as death camp victims of the Nazi regime had in fact fled to countries like Australia and the United States.

"It's all - maybe not all fiction - but most of it is," he said, adding that the gas chambers and crematoria at camps like Auschwitz would not have been capable of exterminating so many people.

"Do you know what it takes to get rid of a dead body? To cremate it?" he said. "It takes a litre of petrol and 20 minutes. Now, six million of them? They (the Germans) did not have the gas to do it. That's why they lost the war."

Even if he really must hold such offensive and ignorant views, he ought to keep them to himself. Where does he think 6,000,000 Jews disappeared to? Did they all just run off and hide somewhere in an elaborate game of hide and seek to try to execute another Jewish plot to take over the world or something?

Do we care all that much? David Irving, Ernst Zundel, Michael Hoffman, Hutton Gibson, Noam Chomsky (oh yes), Malcom X?

Dime a dozen. Like the character in "The Believer" - -

'If Hitler didn't kill all those people then why is he such a great man?'

[peacelover]

I disagree Mediocrates - I think the fact so many people are saying this means it is a matter which can't be ignored... you know how these things spread

There was also 5,000,000 gentiles!

this doesn't look well for mel gibson. while i'm sure mel is not anti-semitic and neither is the film, his father seems to be incredibly stupid.

I think the 6 million number is exaggerated to. More like 5,657,342. Plus a bunch of Gentiles of course.

I don’t think that’s what Hutton had in mind when he used the word exaggerated.


In any event there’s no way that you could dispose of a human body using a liter (about a quart) of Gasoline. Crematoriums used coal gas to run the ovens but the Nazi pigs or their supporters did burn Jews alive or dead.

Lets also not froget the millions that perished after Jews moved into Russia, the rise of Communism etc.

Jews aren't angels in anyones books.

And communist Russians are thin air?
I thought Russians were in control of the Soviet Union, and that Stalin was anti semetic Georgian who executed thousands of Jews in gulags...

But I guess I was wrong...

Had Jews really were running Russia, Russia situation today was far better then it is today.

The former KZs Bergen-Belsen, Sachsenhausen and Neuengamme are not far from here. I can't imagine a visitor to come out and say that again.
If you Jews have taken over the whole world, can I have a nice island in the carribean, please?

Please don't tell me you, a Jew. Don't know any of the history of that area and what happened?!
Because if you don't I would gladly give you a history lesson, because I recently did a short essay on this subject, and was involved in a debate at school.

I read your anti-Semitic version of history. I'm sure you would get high grades in any school in Saudi Racist Arabia. Though you would need to choose a different identity: "Arkan" was a Serbian warlord who massacred Muslims.

P.S.: I've removed your "history" posts for safekeeping.
