Raul Hilberg on Anne Frank's diary




Raul Hilberg, who wrote The Destruction of the European Jews, considered the standard work on
the Holocaust. Appeared as a witness for the prosecution at the trial of Ernst Zündel, the
German-Canadian Revisionist, in Toronto in 1985. He said under oath of the Diary of Anne Frank:
"My understanding, which is based on newspaper accounts, is that the Anne Frank diary which, incidentally, I haven't used or cited in my context whatsoever, is an accurate diary except for amendations or corrections made by her father after the war. It may be that, as sometimes happens with a diary of deceased people, that that was his daughter, that he felt they had to make certain changes in it, or corrections in it, which seems to be, from newspaper accounts, it's stated fact.
Asked if there was any question to it's authenticity, Hilberg answered:
"There is some question as to parts of it, yes,"
