Irving is not a holocaust denier. He accepts that hundreds of thousands of jews were brutally murdered during WW2. And these numbers add up to millions of deaths - whether by shooting, starving, disease or gassing. Where he differs from the consensus is that he argues Himmler and his henchman implemented the holocaust. Hitler was not directly involved, Irving believes. But Irving acknowledges that Hitler as head of state was ultimately responsible for the Holocaust.
