David Irving is examined by Richard Rampton on a variety of topics, including Hitler’s knowledge of the Final Solution, Irving’s uncritical use of Hitler’s adjutant’s testimony and memoirs after the war, and Irving’s account of the number of victims of the Allies bombing of Dresden in 1945. Richard Rampton also examines David Irving about his relationship to Holocaust denial and begins his examination about Irving’s so-called ‘Chain of Documents’ on which Irving bases his views of the Holocaust. David Irving is also briefly examined by the Court on his association with right wing extremists and Holocaust deniers in Germany.
