On Ben Shapiro's Claim that Hitler Gave a Shitload of Speeches About Wanting to Murder All the Jews and that Because of this, We Really Don't Need a Paper-Trail for the Holocaust

There is zero evidence for this claim (and you'd think that he could come up with at least one transcript for these speeches) and, I'm sorry, extraordinary accusations (the claim that 800,000 Jews were gassed to death via diesel, buried, dug up, cremated outdoors, and reburied, for example) require some extraordinary evidence. Put up or shut up, Ben...........................................................................................................P.S. And, no, I'm not saying that Hitler was a great fellow (in truth, he was a dictator the likes of which no self-respecting libertarian could ever get behind), just that (like with a lot of these leaders; Milosevic, Hussein, Assad, Putin, etc.) his life has been ridiculously distorted in an effort to preserve some state-sponsored historical narrative (you have to justify 60,000,000 deaths and the loss of Eastern Europe somehow, no?), that's all.
