	In an interview in 2005 with an Israeli reporter, Mahler stated that he is partly of jewish descent, being one-eighth jewish. Since 2003, he has repeatedly been accused or convicted of "Volksverhetzung" ("incitement of popular hatred"), such as for less politically correct theories regarding the [[9/11 attacks]], and of "[[~~Holocaust~~ denial]]" and served much of a twelve-year prison sentence. Strangely considering his [[~~Holocaust~~ revisionism]], partially jewish ancestry, and rejection of terrorism, he was disbarred in 2004 from practicing law due to two allegedly pro-~~Holocaust~~ statements, possibly due to misrepresenting his intended meaning.
