Author of fake Holocaust story is not sorry, says in his mind he believed it

NEW YORK - The author of a discredited Holocaust memoir is not apologizing.

Herman Rosenblat, who has acknowledged inventing his story of meeting his wife on opposite sides of a concentration camp fence, told "Good Morning America" that he has no regrets and would tell the story again given another chance.

"It wasn't a lie," he said during a taped segment aired Wednesday. "It was my imagination, and in my mind, I believed it. Even now, I believe it."

Until scholars refuted him, Rosenblat and his wife, Roma, were beloved worldwide and appeared twice over the past decade on Oprah Winfrey's talk show. His tale of meeting his future wife at a sub-camp of Buchenwald, where she allegedly sneaked him apples and bread, endeared him to millions.

Rosenblat, a Holocaust survivor whose book, "Angel at the Fence," was pulled last year before publication, told GMA that his wife went along with his story "because she loves me."

Winfrey has since criticized Rosenblat, but her website, www.oprah.com, still includes his admittedly false story as the first example of "Love Lessons from Amazing Couples."

First Video of Fabricating Holocaust Author Defending Self

ABC confirms that Herman Rosenblat, the notorious fabricator behind Holocaust memoir Angels at the Fence, will appear on Good Morning America tomorrow [Update: it's here]. A preview of what he'll probably say, after the jump.

A plugged-in tipster directed us to the freshly-uploaded YouTube video above, in which Rosenblat speaks to an unseen interviewer. He could be talking to a GMA producer in a pre-interview, doing media training with a publicist, who knows. (The video is carried in a YouTube channel named after Rosenblat, although the title of this video curiously misspells his last name.)

NEWS FLASH!--FIVE MILLION JEWS DISAPPEAR

BETWEEN 1988 AND 2000, according to Jew sources, THE WORLDWIDE SUPPLY OF Jews PLUNGED FROM 18.1 TO 13.2.

FINALLY, Jews HAVE PROOF OF A HOLOCAUST!

But there was no war. The Nazis are long gone.

In the midst of peacetime, the Jews LOST 4.9 million people, and still haven't been able to locate them.

Could it be that they need a war in Iraq to increase the Jewish population back to 18 million?

On top of that, the 2000 figure for Jews in the world included 6.7 million in the US when in fact there may have been only 5.2 million.

The Jews in the US, with all the modern techniques for counting populations and handling membership lists, a first class mail delivery system, no war or insurrection or gas ovens or mass graves, were unable to pin down their population to within 1.5 million Jews--an error of 29%!

"The study's credibility became an issue last October after part of its findings on population was released and then withdrawn because some field data were not factored into the 5.2-million population estimate. At the same time, another study by a San Francisco-based group 'using a broader definition of who was Jewish ' placed the population at 6.7 million. But after reevaluating its methodology and findings, UJC said Wednesday that it stood by the 5.2-million figure."

These folks, who didn't have the brains to use modern techniques for estimating their own population to within an accuracy of 6.4 million Jews, during peacetime, are the very same folks who claimed that they knew precisely, for certain, without ANY doubt, with such certitude that they had hundreds or thousands of people EXECUTED for denying it, that 6 million Jews were missing during Nazi persecution, world war, massive Jew migration, and the death or disappearance of 264 million CHRISTIANS!
