To explicit forms of so-called Holocaust denial, we may also include implicit forms of denial. A case in point:

From: Dangerous Liaison [Stoddart: Toronto, 1991, pp. 299-300] | Leslie and Andrew Cockburn:

...the Rabin government extended a coveted invitation to visit Israel to a very controversial guest, South African Prime Minister John Vorster.

When Vorster laid a wreath at Yad Vashem, Israel's memorial to the Holocaust, it made some observers exceptionally queasy. Vorster had served nearly two years in jail during World War II for his Nazi collaboration.

For the record, David Irving has never written a book or article on the "Holocaust." Everything he has written is freely available on his website. Every book is there in .pdf form, and may be downloaded for free. Judge for yourselves: www.fpp.co.uk
