What'a a little soft Holocaust denial between friends? Anyhoo, he supports the settlements so all good.

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman on Monday said the omission of Jews from the White Houses International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement was likely a mishap or a misunderstanding, even though the Trump administration has insisted it was intentional.
The White House came under fire from Jewish groups and others Friday after releasing a statement to mark Holocaust remembrance that did not mention Jews or anti-Semitism, but officials have said they were intending to highlight the fact that the Nazis had many victims, not just Jews, and that they had no regrets about the formulation.

No point for him. For us, different story. We plan to pursue this.

in not allowing soft Holocaust denial to be mainstreamed by the President of the United States.

What kind of fucking enabler excuse is that?
You know Trump is a Nazi. And his top henchman
is a white supremacist holocast denier. WTF.
