A friend (who is not yet wise to the JQ, but I'm slowly pushing there) brought this up the other weekend, and how messed up it was.

Ive not yet read it, but a cursory look shows the author is a "holocaust studies" historian, and he actually was part of the trials against Ernst Zundel and David Irving.

We all know how the David Irving trial went, where the poured over all his work line by line looking for lies, and when that failed they used discovery to gain access to his personal journals etc, where they found he made an allegedly "racist" nursery rhyme for his kid or whatever.

Is this just another book full of shit, with no sources, just allegations and supposed testimonies which were likely gained under torture or at the least duress? His early life doesn't say he's a jew, but his line of work and nose does.

As you can tell my inclination is to ignore it. At the same time I know the nazis killed a lot of people in the east, loads. 20M Russians didn't just die out of nowhere. Partisan jew guerilla warfare was a real thing and absolutely areas were simply "liquidated" - and it's easy to apply a modern lens to that..

So I brought up the book "the red terror" that highlights the horrors of the bolshevik revolution, and read a few passages I saved, and I mentioned that's the sort of people the nazis were dealing with.

I'm going to read this book so I can push back a bit at the right time. He's a fairly based friend, he's all about his family, hates the lgbtq nonsense, immigrants, and he's got natsoc tendencies though I don't believe he realizes it because he's still hoodwinked.. But I feel like I can get him there slowly.

Any advices?
