Roseanne Barr is doing her best to promote the career of the bigot Gilad Atzmon. http://t.co/1ehL6GCbMM

Atzmon has been widely criticized as a Holocaust revisionist, anti-Semite and anti-Zionist. Alan Dershowitz offered a glimpse inside Atzmon’s mind in a 2012 Daily News op-ed:
While the Holocaust “was not at all an historical narrative” and Auschwitz was not a “death camp,” the “accusations of Jews making matzo out of young Goyim’s blood,” may be true. “The Jews” caused the recent credit crunch, which the author calls “the Zio-punch.”

.@TheRealRoseanne Gilad Atzmon says he disbelieves "the Auschwitz narrative". Do you find this acceptable? @CiFWatch @Daroff

Roseanne, of course, is no stranger to anti-Semitism. Last year she used Twitter to warn followers about the horrors of “Jewish mind control.”

And we all remember this:
Not the first time @TheRealRoseanne has been less than tactful re: the Holocaust. @CiFWatch @adamhollandblog pic.twitter.com/4iGfFELmJE

Color us shocked to find that Roseanne doubled down on her support of Atzmon after critics called her out.
After being presented with evidence of @GiladAtzmon's Holocaust denial, @TheRealRoseanne's response was to double down her support of Atzmon

Roseanne claims she doesn’t find Holocaust denial “acceptable” and called one Twitter user “a filthy liar and a troll.”

She asked Atzmon to address the “lies” personally.

And oh did he ever.
@DoomsdayPicnic @TheRealRoseanne @BlackJewEgg @CiFWatch this is not a H Denial, it actually the opposite. insisting H treated as HISTORY!
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@JohnnyArgent @AbeSilberstein @TheRealRoseanne All you have to do is read the paper. It is a demand to treat the past as a moral lesson
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
It didn’t take long for him to lash out at a “zio joker” (obviously a tolerant and loving term of endearment).
@adamhollandblog @PaytonMarina @JohnnyArgent @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne another zio joker, conspiracy you won't find in my work!
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@JohnnyArgent @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne @adamhollandblog I can see why Zionists are afraid of truth seeking, happy to embody this fear
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
Hey, he’s not a Holocaust denier. He’s just asking questions.
@AbeSilberstein @JohnnyArgent @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne the real question is why these people are so afraid to look at their past.
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@kim_or_pen @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Deniers for them are everyone who dares look back and ask crucial questions.
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@kim_or_pen @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Deniers for them are the people who demand that the H becomes a universal lesson..
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@kim_or_pen @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Deniers, for them, are those who insist that if racism is bad than Zionist racism is also bad…
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
But don’t use your “Zio campaign” to call Atzmon a Jew hater, you lying “Zio-troll.” It’ll get him referring to himself in the third person, and nobody wants that.
@KayOrder @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Listen joker,, i asked you where Atzmon says 'he hates Jews'? either provide evidence or fuck off..
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@KayOrder @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne do you really hope to win your Zio campaign with out a shred of evidence to support it?
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@KayOrder @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne I will help you, Atzmon doesn't speak on Jews or Judaism, he is critical of Jewish identity politics!
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@KayOrder @kim_or_pen @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne it takes you time ha? why don't you just admit being a liar? is it symptomatic to the Zio?
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@KayOrder @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Still no evidence… you are the embodiment of the Zio joke..
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
@KayOrder @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne I give up on you,,, pathetic Zio-troll.
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
Tolerance city, baby!
@GiladAtzmon @kim_or_pen @CiFWatch @TheRealRoseanne Zio? I'm sorry, your hatred is spilling over 🙂
— Alex Kay (@KayOrder) May 9, 2013
In case you’re wondering why this guy is “famous” (we weren’t), he’s happy to tell you one of his claims to fame is being “the only person who stood up against Jewish power.” Really:
@KayOrder but I am famous for being a superb musician, a humanist, a philosopher and the only person who stood up against Jewish power.
— Gilad Atzmon (@GiladAtzmon) May 9, 2013
And yet, Roseanne continues to defend this odious creep.
We’ll leave Roseanne and her supporters with this thought:
By supporting Holocaust denier @GiladAtzmon, @TheRealRoseanne supports Holocaust denial and the trampling on the memory of 6 million.
