Yes it was dropped after he questioned that "6 million" number (you know >what I mean) during a podcast. He also talked about race on more than
one occasion and suggested segregation is a good idea.
Hadn't heard about either though with respect to the Holocaust does it
really matter in terms of depth of evil if the number is 6 million, 4
million or 12 million? It was one helluva lot of deaths that were
indisputably planned with industrial precise by all sorts of means
throughout the way including up to the last week of the war.
(I suppose if it had been that last number there wouldn't have been a
state of Israel since with only 15 million Jews worldwide there
wouldn't have been enough survivors to have a state of Israel but you
get what I mean - once you get past a certain number genocide is
completely unimagineable especially when done with the precision it
was. Note that half the Holocaust deaths had already been done by
September 1942 well before the tide of the war had decisively changed
against them and that the killings didn't stop until literally a week
before the Germans surrendered - that's well documented and was a LOT
more people than just Dietrich Boenhoffer who was the best known
victim of the last week of the war)
(Back in my student days I sat in the university library and read
several hundred pages of the Nuremberg Trials transcripts
until I just couldn't take it any more - what was 30 or 40 musty
volumes then is a Harvard Law School website now
