Spicer Says Hitler Didn't "Use Chemical Weapons"

[GaryDog]

looks to me like Spicer made this faux pas because he really didn't know about the Holocaust, seriously

it's just like Trump didn't really know Putin is an old Assad backer and is keeping his murderous regime in place

these people are really that ignorant

Disagreed. Spicer obviously knew about the Holocaust. Saying "The Nazis didn't use chemical weapons" was about the battlefield, not the showers at Auschwitz. Zyklon-B wasn't a chemical weapon; it was a pesticide used to murder human beings.

This isn't even the equivalent of President Obama's "57 states" since Spicer knew what he was talking about. The fact the LW latched onto it is politics as usual. I respect Spicer for quickly clarifying himself and reaffirming that he knew about the Holocaust.

How is a pesticide "chemical" that is used to kill people not a "chemical weapon."

Please break down for me how you remove either "chemical" or "weapon" from that equation. Can't wait for these mental gymnastics.

Is Lethal Injection or electrocution a weapon?

Fuck yes it is.

...The monsters who ran the final solution (the polizei SS) used a pesticide to murder the Jews, and other "undesireables" in the various death camps, but the use of chemical weapons was never approved by hitler. Probably the only good thing that be claimed about the prick.

Fuck off, you sack of shit. You're a fucking holocaust-denying racist and anti-semite. I hope heart disease claims you slowly.

Lighten up, Francis. Westwall admitted to Holocaust in his post, so your response is not only emotionally over-the-top, but a lie.

 

[westwall]

No wonder you voted for "the gropenfuherer" , you are a bit illiterate.
Did the Nazi's use gas during the war?
Simple yes or no.

Uh, yes -- he did you Trump ball gurgling clown.

They were never used in combat, only in the programmed killings of the holocaust. Hitler was a gas casualty during World War I, so it has always been assumed that his reluctance to use said weapons on enemy formations stemmed from his experience with them.

No, they didn't. The monsters who ran the final solution (the polizei SS) used a pesticide to murder the Jews, and other "undesireables" in the various death camps, but the use of chemical weapons was never approved by hitler. Probably the only good thing that be claimed about the prick.

Where did I deny the holocaust you silly clown? Point it out please.

Parsing hairs on the use of the word "chemical"? Seriously, is it difficult to type while looking through the holes in a sheet?

francis is a well known lying POS. You can't reason with insane people and I think we are getting a good idea of just how batshit crazy this 'tard is.

No parsing at all. The historical record is CLEAR and unequivocal that for all the horrible things that hitler did, he didn't cross that line. He had minions, who no doubt were batshit crazy assholes, like you, who used a pesticide because they had it handy. They also used CO pumped into closed rooms from idling engines, and other horrible means to murder their millions. But they did not use nerve agents, nor any other chemical weapon that had been developed. That is a fact.

Agreed, although I think he was strongly tempted to use them in Russia since 1) He hated the fucking Soviets so bad Soviet prisoners went to the Death Camps and 2) it was a very costly front for the Nazis.

Many people remember the 6 million Jews murdered in the Death Camps, but forget the other 5 Million gays, Soviets, Gypsies and other "undesirables" who were executed there.

I'm sure he was but he never positioned chemical weapons near the front. The US though DID. We had a ship filled with chemical weapons catch fire in Italy after being bombed by the germans.

"SS John Harvey was a U.S. World War II Liberty ship. This ship is most well known for carrying a secret cargo of mustard gas and whose sinking by German aircraft in December 1943 at the port of Bari in south Italy caused an unintentional release of chemical weapons.

The John Harvey was built by the North Carolina Shipbuilding Company in Wilmington, North Carolina, and launched on 9 January 1943. Her Maritime Commission Hull Number was 878, and she was rated as capable of carrying 504 soldiers.[2]"

SYTFE is around, but why is he not giving up context?
Context is kinda important on this issue.

It's cowardly to use chemicals when making war on someone.

Perception.
If you win, you win. You don't go to war wanting to play fair. That is a leftist fantasy.
If chemical weapons are cowardly, so are tanks, helicopters, guns, knives, missiles etc

agreed, war and weaponry are cowardly.

The Nazis did use chemical weapons in combat on several occasions along the Black Sea, notably in Sevastopol, where they used toxic smoke to force Russian resistance fighters out of caverns below the city, in violation of the 1925 Geneva Protocol.[39] The Nazis also used asphyxiating gas in the catacombs of Odessa in November 1941, following their capture of the city, and in late May 1942 during the Battle of the Kerch Peninsula in eastern Crimea.[39] Victor Israelyan, a Soviet ambassador, reported that the latter incident was perpetrated by the Wehrmacht's Chemical Forces and organized by a special detail of SS troops with the help of a field engineer battalion. Chemical Forces General Ochsner reported to German command in June 1942 that a chemical unit had taken part in the battle.[40] After the battle in mid-May 1942, roughly 3,000 Red Army soldiers and Soviet civilians not evacuated by sea were besieged in a series of caves and tunnels in the nearby Adzhimuskai quarry. After holding out for approximately three months, "poison gas was released into the tunnels, killing all but a few score of the Soviet defenders."[41] Thousands of those killed around Adzhimushk were documented to have been killed by asphyxiation from gas.[40]

In February 1943, German troops stationed in Kuban received a telegram: "Russians should be eventually cleared out of the mountain range with gas."[42] The troops also received two wagons of toxin antidotes.[42]

They used tear gas. Technically a chemical weapon, but not a weapon of mass destruction. We use it too. Police use it all of the time.

It certainly would be were it factual. But, like almost everything you morons post, it is fake news.

This isn't an example of Spicer being racist or an anti-semite or a Nazi sympathizer or anything or the sort. That's silly and politically motivated.

It's simply another example of his gross incompetence.

stating that hitler never gassed anyone is not only severely inaccurate it is deeply chilling to hear from our administration. Is he ignorant to history or is he denying the atrocities faced by jews? Not sure, either way it is out of line and inappropriate.
What about on holocaust remembrance day and the trump admin released a statement that didn't even mention jewish people?? Unreal.

Yeah, he's not very good at the job, that's for sure. He almost has the facts correct, but he's just not quite there. When you make comparisons like that you have to be absolutely precise because the morons who are going to attack you are likewise not well educated in history.

He was specifically referring to weapons of mass destruction. Namely blister agents, and nerve agents. In that context he was absolutely correct. The fact that he isn't smart enough to string multiple thoughts and sentences together to make that distinction is i think well established.
