Netanyahu Absolves Hitler of the Holocaust – It Was a Palestinian Plot – Not German
![]() |
"Hitler
didn't want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the
Jews," Netanyahu said in the speech. "And Haj Amin al-Husseini went
to Hitler and said, 'If you expel them, they'll all come here (Palestine).'
"'So
what should I do with them?'" Netanyahu said Hitler asked the mufti, who
responded: "Burn them."
Netanyahu,
whose father was an eminent historian, was quickly harangued by opposition
politicians and experts on the Holocaust who said he was distorting the
historical record.
They noted
the meeting between Husseini and Hitler took place on November 28, 1941. More
than two years earlier, in January 1939, Hitler had addressed the Reichstag,
Nazi Germany's parliament, and spoke clearly about his determination to
exterminate the "Jewish race".
"To say
that the mufti was the first to mention to Hitler the idea to kill or burn the
Jews is not correct," Dina Porat, a professor at Tel Aviv University and
the chief historian of Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial museum, told
Israel Radio.
