Deutsche National Zeitung on Eastern Europe

German historians who relativize the Holocaust by claiming it is a ‘copy’ of Soviet atrocities demonstrate deep conceptual confusion. They ignore the concept of the singularity of historical events, draw inappropriate analogies between race and class and postulate a cause and effect relationship which does not exist. These arguments are unmistakably intended as apologetic; they falsely deprive Nazism and the Final Solution of their primary character.
