    A controversial ultra-Orthodox rabbi based in New York has said that
    fewer that one million Jews were killed in the Holocaust, claiming
    most of those counted among the usually cited figure of six million
    were not Jewish according to rabbinical law.

    In a video posted online, Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi can be seen saying that
    high assimilation rates in pre-war Europe and broad Nazi definitions
    have exaggerated the numbers of Jews recorded as killed by the Nazis
    during the Holocaust. At least five million of the six million were
    “total goyim,” Mizrachi told the crowd, adopting a Hebrew word for
    non-Jews that many consider pejorative.

    “The truth, I am telling you, is that not even one million Jews were >murdered,” Mizrachi said, trashing accepted historical accounts. “A
    lot of non-Jews were meshed into the count, but in truth, how many
    Jews really were killed?”

    Originally from Israel, Mizrachi moved to the United States in his
    twenties and received rabbinic ordination there. In the past decade he
    has been teaching at the Ohr Yeshiva in Monsey, New York, and
    producing kiruv or Jewish outreach, videos.

    According to his website, DivineInformation.com, Mizrachi “has spoken
    in over 5,000 lectures worldwide as well participated in many weekend >seminars, radio shows and other Hebrew and English events in which he >enriched the knowledge and awareness of Judaism among thousands of
    Jews who once were lacking Jewish awareness whatsoever.”

    In the video, one of thousands on his YouTube page — which has amassed
    over a million views — Mizrachi says it is “very simple” to explain
    his estimates for the actual number of Jewish victims in the
    Holocaust.

    “If you look at the percent of assimilation that there was in Europe,
    which already reached 80 percent, it’s reasonable to assume that 80
    percent of the 6 million were not-Jews,” Mizrachi said.

    It turns out that the Holocaust was a Christian tragedy, not a Jewish
    one. Its little wonder the jews don't want give revisionists a
    platform.
