Egypt party leader: Holocaust is ‘a lie’
9/11 was ‘made in USA,’ he says
BUDAPEST — A leader of Egypt (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/egypt/)’s top secular party says the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks were “made in the USA,” the Holocaust is “a lie” and Anne Frank (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/anne-frank/)’s memoir is “a fake” — comments sure to roil the post-revolution political debate in the Arab world’s most populous country.
Ahmed Ezz El-Arab (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/ahmed-ezz-el-arab/), a vice chairman of Egypt's Wafd Party (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/egypts-wafd-party/), made the remarks in an exclusive interview with The Washington Times last week while in the Hungarian capital attending the Conference on Democracy and Human Rights.
He denied that the Nazis killed 6 million Jews during World War II.
“The Holocaust is a lie” Mr. Ezz El-Arab (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/ezz-el-arab/) said. “The Jews under German occupation were 2.4 million. So if they were all exterminated, where does the remaining 3.6 million come from?”
Mr. Ezz El-Arab (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/ezz-el-arab/) said he accepted that the Nazis killed “hundreds of thousands” of Jews. “But gas chambers and skinning them alive and all this? Fanciful stories,” he added. (AUDIO: on the Holocaust (http://media.washtimes.com/media/audio/2011/07/05/ahmed-ezz-el-arab-on-the-holocaust.mp3))

I expected something like that from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad otherwise known as "I am a nut job" but Egypt is supposed to be an ally and a moderate nation. They must really like living in shit up top their necks.
