From his bio:

Before it was written about in the United States, I learned from a World War II soldier about his liberation of a state mental hospital that was being used for the extermination of mental patients even before the Holocaust had begun. The hospital was still actively killing and cremating its patients, even after the war was over in that part of Germany. I was able to research foreign documents and to travel to Germany with my friend Jeffrey Masson to look into archives on the extermination of mental patients. It turned out that biological psychiatry in Germany developed the theory and practice of massive “scientific” murder, including extermination centers, gassing and cremation. Furthermore, the Germans were sustained in their efforts by approval from key figures in British and American medicine and psychiatry.

I gave a formal presentation on the subject at the first German conference on the role of medicine in the Third Reich, and wrote both a popular article and a scientific report on how the murder of mental patients was a key step toward the murder of the Jews. When Jeffrey Masson and I physically delivered my paper to the Holocaust Museum, the archives reported that it was the first scientific documentation in their possession about how the “euthanasia” program paved the way for the wider extermination program.

He's on Michael Savage once a week and I'm sure he'd be a great guest for Alex and probably would become a regular. He saved my life.
