    Syrian President Bashar Assad earlier this week declared that there is
    no evidence that six million Jews were killed during the Holocaust and
    accused the United States of funding the German Nazi party.

    In a video of a speech by Assad translated and published by the Middle
    East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) on Monday, Assad can be seen
    telling a listening crowd that “there is no evidence that six million
    Jews were killed” during the Holocaust.

    “True, there were concentration camps, but what shows you that this is
    a politicized issue, not a humanitarian one and not a real one, is
    that we talk about these six million, but why don’t we talk about the
    26 million Soviets who were killed in that war? Are the six million
    more precious?”

    Continuing his tirade, the Syrian dictator claimed that “there was no
    specific method of torture or killing specific to the Jews. The Nazis
    used the same methods everywhere.”
