In an interview with CNN's Don Lemon, legal expert Alan Dershowitz responds to the 'Anne Frank Center For Mutual Respect' making a public statement calling Sean Spicer's bizarre but generally irrelevant reference to Hitler and chemical weapons at Tuesday's press briefing "the most evil slur upon a group of people we have ever heard from a White House." "Even Hitler didn't sink to the level of using chemical weapons," Spicer said for some reason during Tuesday's White House press briefing. He clarified later in a statement: "In no way was I trying to lessen the horrendous nature of the Holocaust. I was trying to draw a distinction of the tactic of using airplanes to drop chemical weapons on population centers. Any attack on innocent people is reprehensible and inexcusable." The Anne Frank Center, put out a statement on Twitter a few hours later saying in all caps: "@POTUS @realDonaldTrump MUST FIRE SEAN SPICER NOW FOR ENGAGING IN HOLOCAUST DENIAL. OUR STATEMENT BELOW. #Antisemitism #NeverAgain" .@POTUS @realDonaldTrump MUST FIRE SEAN SPICER NOW FOR ENGAGING IN HOLOCAUST DENIAL. OUR STATEMENT BELOW. #Antisemitism #NeverAgain pic.twitter.com/4dB9ESCaZr-- AnneFrankCenter(US) (@AnneFrankCenter) April 11, 2017 Deshowitz said that any attempt to label Spicer's claims "Holocaust denial" had no leg to stand on and said the organization claiming to be the 'Anne Frank Center' was a "phony." Deshowitz fired back: "And of course, this guy who claims to be the head of the Frank Center. It is a total phony. There is no such thing, this is a minor institution with no credibility within the Jewish community. He is constantly trying to get headlines by overblowing everything." "What happened here is [Spicer] screwed up," Dershowitz said. "And he apologized from his heart, and I am prepared to give him a pass on this." "You know who I am not prepared to give a pass on this? The Democratic National Committee," he continued. "They have immediately decided to politizie this, and they sent out immediate Tweets saying 'We can't tolerate even a whiff of anti-Semitism.' This is the Democratic National Committee, who has as its co-chairman Keith Ellison, who didn't recognize the fact that he was working for an anti-Semite, Farrakhan. This is just hypocrisy and I think we should not make politics out of this." "This is very emotional for you," CNN host Don Lemon said in an attempt to discredit Dershowitz's comments. "You even threatened to leave the Democratic Party if they elected Keith Ellison. I understand that... But this is something different." "This is something that should not be politicized. It was a mistake, you don't make analogies to Hitler, he apologized profusely and from the heart, lets put it behind us and not let the Anne Frank people take advanatage of this. Let's not let the Democrats take advantage of this. Let's understand this was a mistake, he apologized, and let's move on."
