The fucked up thing about this case is that David Irving has never denied the holocaust happened. I've actually read some of his stuff. It's pretty off the wall and I am unconvinced by his opinion. However, does suggesting that 3 million jews were killed by the nazis instead of 6 million amount to denying the holocaust occurred? He disputes certain facts regarding the holocaust. That's all. He may very well be a racist. That could be his motivation for his research. But i've never read a single thing where he's said the holocaust did not happen.

People seem to get the idea that if you suggest 6 million wasn't the correct number, then you're somehow being apologetic towards the nazis, like killing 3 million isn't as bad as killing 6 million.
