Muslim Brotherhood chief: Holocaust is a Myth

Echoing the Brave words of the Iranian President the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood[Islamic Masons] have questioned the validity of the Holocaust victim estimates.

Personally I think the number was ~1 million.

The head of the Muslim Brotherhood, the main opposition force in Egypt's parliament, has echoed Iran's president in describing the Holocaust as a myth.

"Western democracy has attacked everyone who does not share the vision of the sons of Zion as far as the myth of the Holocaust is concerned," Mohamed Akef said in a statement on Thursday.

Akef cited as evidence of Western intolerance the cases of Roger Garoudy, the writer who was convicted in France in 1998 of questioning the Holocaust, and David Irving, a British historian who faces similar charges in Austria next month.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, caused an international uproar when he said in a speech on 14 December that the Holocaust was a myth.

Last week Mohamed Habib, the deputy leader of the Brotherhood, asked about Ahmadinejad's denial of the Holocaust, said reports of Nazi attempts to wipe out European Jews might have been exaggerated.

"We don't have confirmed things to enable us to prove this matter or refute it," he said. "It needs documentation but what one can be sure of is that there were attacks on the Jews but not by means of gas chambers or perhaps not in these numbers or on this scale."

But Habib said the debate was irrelevant to the situation of the Palestinians. "What the Jews propagate about there being a Holocaust has nothing to do with the way they treat the Palestinians on the land of Palestine," he said.

So what does the Holocaust have to do with Palestine?

They were all under British occupation when WWII started.

Palestine is where the Zionist movenment wanted Israel to be, Israel was promised to the Jews by God. Slight problem, Palestine was in the place where the Zionist wanted to call home.



As you can see, Palestine include the area which is now modern day Israel.

Apparently, more than you have wanted to research, if based upon your own personal assertion that the number of Jews killed during the Holocaust was one million. I find it interesting, if not downright ironic, that the German govenment has official documentation in its WWII German archives indicating the number of Jewish populace murdered in camps and open air mass killings, in excess of 4 million. I wholeheartedly encourage holocaust deniers to continue to look the other way in the face of truth [ie: those German archives containing holocaust documentations].
Hmm, maybe that is why the German government was one of the first to come out and smackdown what the Iranian president asserted?! Btw, who would know better if the Holocaust is a myth or not: the German government or two uninformed Muslim radicals? Opps, btwx2, this just in:
Muslim Brotherhood Retracts Holocaust Statement

As for Palestine's relationship to WWII, start with this character: Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini and his support and sanctioning of the Final Solution. And to help eliminate your issue with sources, here is a link to a general Google indicating 19,000 results:
Grand Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini

Reviewing some of those links will also explain your mention:

They were all under British occupation when WWII started.

On par with the Arab World's continued siding with the wrong side: WWI [Ottoman Empire] and WWII [Germany], it is not too terribly difficult to understand two things here:
First, the head of the Muslim Brotherhood is simply backing the radical President of Iran. Nothing new here. What is new here is that the head of the Muslim Brotherhood retracted his supportive claim.
Second, the head of the Muslim Brotherhood, as with the Iranian President, is siding with a side that has been proven repeatedly wrong, time and time again: Holocaust deniers.

So I guess if it was around 1 million that'd be A OK, huh? If this wild theory was ever proven to be true, we should posthumously reward the Nobel Peace Prize to Hitler?

Something tells me if you were in charge of Nazi Germany you'd make sure it wasn't a soul less than 6,000,000!
