For Irving, Hitler is an innocent victim of manmade history – and never its perpetrator (an ‘inversion’ of genuine history). Hitler is a sweet holy being who omits light and wonderment from an elevated and superior position of vision (as if stood on Glastonbury Tor). The Nazi German System, according to Irving, simply positioned itself around Hitler’s purity and played out a corrupt narrative within which an innocent ‘Fuhrer’ was trapped and captured! The reality is, of course, that Nazism was the total and unquestioned manifestation of Hitler’s destructive Will – plain and simple (those who disagreed or did not fit in were ‘removed’). Like a seasoned paedophile who knows how to impeccably ‘groom’ a child – David Irving seeks to deify Hitler whilst obscuring his murderous mission by using endless reams of supportive, historical fact. By being interested in this ‘fact’ – we are misled into the abyss of Hitler worship. David Irving is a very dangerous individual not because he is not a good historian – but because he is a good historian. Despite this, a fascist is a fascist – and Hitler was a murdering bastard!
