One of the widely recognized holocaust deniers is David Irving, a controversial World War 2 chronicler, he insists that that individual testimonies from survivors are irrelevant and untrue. Irving's belief is that victims simply testify for their personal gain, he states that most of his encounters with holocaust survivors are typical, in his website column he states the following.
"When I get to Australia in January I know what is going to happen. They are going to wheel out all the so-called eyewitnesses. One in particular, Mrs. Altman, I've clashed with once or twice. She is very convincing. They can be very convincing. Because they have to do it so often over the years. They've had a free run. We're going to meet because she has that tattoo. I am going to say,'You have that tattoo, we all have the utmost sympathy for you. But how much money have you made on it! In the last 45 years! Can I estimate! Quarter of a million! Half million! Certainly not less. That's how much you've made from the German taxpayers and the American taxpayers.' Ladies and gentlemen, you're paying $3 billion a year to the State of Israel. Compensation to people like Mrs. Altman. She'll say,'Why not, I suffered.' I'll say you didn't. You survived. By definition you didn't suffer. Not half as much as those who died. They suffered. You didn't. You're the one making the money. Explain to me this. Why have you people made all the money, but Australian soldiers who suffered for five years in Japanese prison camps haven't got a bent nickel out of it!" ( Anti Defamation League 1).
Irving's response to Mrs. Altman's testimony is irrelevant. Instead of responding to actual facts Irving's relies on personal opinion in order to discredit the witnesses testimony. Yes, the victim has obviously had some economical gain from her testimonies but, that doesn't in any way take away from the fact that Altman had been a victim to Nazi political power.
