I love that a Holocaust denier just got 3 years in jail.

I also read a story last week where a mosque in Germany invited the head of Iran (who also denies the Holocaust happend) to tour the concentration camps. I think that's great, I wish I could find the link.

I sense a war looming on the horizon with Hamas taking over the Palestinian government.

Do you really believe he deserves to go to jail though? I agree that he's ignorant but it's his right to hold that opinion no matter how wrong it might be.

read the article, he admits that he was mistaken to claim that there are no gas chambers in Auchwitz.

do i think he deserves to go to jail? no, not really. i think it's great that he is shitting himself because he has been sentenced to prison for 3 years, but i (hope) expect an appeals court to lessen the sentence or give him probation.
