The second world war claimed tens of millions of victims.

I'm not saying that the gas chambers didn't exist. I couldn't see them myself.

In France, at least the German occupation was not especially inhumane, even if there were a number of excesses - inevitable in a country of 550,000 square kilometres... If the Germans had carried out mass executions across the country as the received wisdom would have it, then there wouldn't have been any need for concentration camps for political deportees.

As for me, even though I have been accused of anti-Semitism countless times, no one has ever heard me make anti-Semitic statements or engage in anti-Semitic behavior.

Millions also perished in the Chinese camps, and there have been terrible genocides in Cambodia and Vietnam.

The second world war claimed tens of millions of victims.

There was no reason to label us as anti-Semitic.
