The Anne
Frank Center has demanded US press secretary Sean Spicer be fired
after he claimed Adolf Hitler “didn’t even sink to using
chemical weapons” in a comment overlooking Nazi Germany’s use
of gas chambers during World War II.
In the midst
of Genocide Awareness Month, the White House spokesperson appeared to
skip over major facts about the Holocaust. Asked during a briefing on
Tuesday about the relationship between Russia and Syria, Spicer
brought Hitler and his apparent ‘lack’ of chemical weapons use
into the equation.
“We
didn’t use chemical weapons in World War II. You had someone as
despicable as Hitler, who didn’t even sink to using chemical
weapons. So you have to if you are Russia, ask yourself is this a
country and a regime that you want to align yourself with,” he
said.
