The Anti-Defamation League is offering a one-time class about the Holocaust to White House press secretary Sean Spicer following comments he made during a press briefing on how Adolf Hitler did not use chemical weapons against his own people. "Unfortunately, when the first days of Passover ended and we turned to our phones and televisions yesterday evening, we learned about your comment that Hitler did not gas his own people. Your comparisons between [Syrian dictator Bashar] Assad and Hitler were not only historically inaccurate but they also were inappropriate and offensive," ADL CEO Jonathan A.

Two days after White House press secretary Sean Spicer was accused of making a misleading statement about Hitler's use of chemical weapons, the Anti-Defamation League has offered to help educate him on the Holocaust. During Tuesday's White House press briefing, Spicer compared Adolf Hitler to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad after the latter was accused of attacking his own people with chemical weapons last week. Spicer at first said Hitler never used chemical weapons on his own people, which he later clarified to mean Hitler never attacked his own people via chemical bombs dropped from airplanes which Assad was accused of doing.
