Egyptian MP Ragab Hilal Hamidah: Hitler Was Acting in Self-Defense

#2075 | 45

Following are excerpts from a speech delivered by Egyptian MP Ragab Hilal Hamida, which aired on Al-Nas TV on March 1, 2009.

Ragab Hilal Hamida: What Holocaust are they talking about? They are the epitome of corruption. I am speaking as a Muslim who has read in history books – even if I’m not an expert – that Hitler was defending his country against the conspiracies devised by Russia along with Serbia, at the beginning of World War I. Later, they scorched Poland in World War II. Who did? The Jews. So [Hitler] was acting in self-defense. What Holocaust? Everybody casts doubt on it. There is no such thing as “Semites” – we are the true Semitic nation, because we are the ones who belong to the true faith.
