315. There are no "Jewish Holocaust deniers"
The people you are referring to, the Netura Kartei, do not deny the Holocaust - many of them are survivors of the camps. They are ultra-Orthodox Jews who believe that only the Messiah will have the right to re-establish a Jewish state (actually, a kingdom) in Israel and that the current state of Israel is illegitimate. They denounced Ahmadinejad for his denial of the Holocaust but went to his conference because they are anti-Zionists, too. It was a foolish move on their part, since it gave Ahmadinejad cover (admittedly, threadbare cover) from charges that he is anti-Semitic.

There are hardly any people in the world who get most Jews madder than these people.
