Here's the lie. Irving was not sent to jail, not in England, not in Austria, not in Germany, not in Italy and not in Canada. He lost a civil suit in England which he himself instituted for libel against people who said he was a holocaust denier and an racist--and he lost. He was fined in Austria and Germany, and was made
persona non grata in Germany, Austria, Italy and Canada. Stupid man that he is, he actually went to Canada anyway, and was deported.
It is a lie that Irving went to jail, for whatever attempt you make to twist a statement about cause and effect.
