Ayatollah of the RAF: claims Nazi gas chambers were British propaganda, criticises Libya air strikes
dailymail.co.uk ^ | August 07, 2011 | Ian Gallagher

The head of studies at the Royal Air Force pilot training college is a convert to Islam who has criticised Nato air strikes on Libya in a Muslim magazine.

Dr Joel Hayward is dean of the college at Cranwell, the RAF’s equivalent of Sandhurst, and has taught many of the pilots spearheading the military operation against Colonel Gaddafi.

But, to the dismay of defence chiefs, he has cast doubt on the widely held belief that the Nato actions averted the mass killing of civilians in Benghazi. He also warned against the RAF becoming ‘the air corps of a rebel army’.

Dr Hayward has previously expressed remorse after appearing to claim that far fewer Jews were killed by the Nazis than generally thought and that the gas chambers of the Holocaust were British propaganda. In another article recently he likened Churchill to Mohammed.

The magazine article on Libya was published under the headline ‘The West runs the risks of its good intentions (and inconsistencies) leading to distrust’.

Dr Hayward wrote: ‘When western aircrafts began to destroy tanks and a downpour of missiles wrecked Libya’s air force and air defence system, various leaders congratulated themselves for preventing an “atrocity” or “slaughter” - evocative words which conjured up images of a Srebrenica-style massacre [the 1995 killing of Bosnian Muslims].

‘Yet we do not know that his army would have “slaughtered” civilians in a Srebrenica-style massacre.’ ....

It is not the first time the New Zealand-born academic has attracted controversy. In 2000, he was accused of denying the Holocaust after the publication of a thesis he had written in 1993 questioning the number of Jews killed. He claimed the idea of gas chambers being used was propaganda invented by Britain, the US and Jewish lobbyists.

I wonder if he ever read Churchill's The River War.

A few responses for the, ahem, “gentleman.”

From our own Department of Defense, filmed on location:http://www.archive.org/details/nazi_concentration_camps

First newsreels:http://www.archive.org/details/1945-04-26_Nazi_Murder_Mills

The German documentary, to educate the average run-of-the-mill German and Austrian:http://www.archive.org/details/DeathMills

From a thirty second search. If a member of his religious persuasion espouses this, it is likely due to the inculcation received on the subject of Jews. That does not excuse his views in any way; it merely declares it’s institutional existence. He is, of course, absolutely wrong. And the grand muslim leader of Egypt both inspired and was directly involved in this garbage. The fact that things have deteriorated to the point of someone with views such as his is able to gain this position is telling of the current state of Great Britain, I’m afraid. Quite regrettable.

Between this and the riots, it would seem Britain’s suicide is accelerating.

So were the Dunkirk boat rides, the Battle of Britain, the U-boat seige, the convoys from Scapa Flow to Murmansk...heck's bells...the list is endless.

Is this clown still employed there?

The Global Caliphate will erect its victory mosque on the graves of the accomodating, the indecisive, and the indifferent.

As these nitwits overtake from within one country after another, clearly in their gun sites is the USA. Watch very carefully how the leadership cow tows to these \marauders and in the end, nothing will be done to fully correct that situation but rather give in and in the end, there will be UK. Prince William and all will be ousted by these non-English uncultured heathens.
