Moshe Aryeh Friedman

Moshe Aryeh Friedman (born 1972, Brooklyn) is a haredi rabbi.

In 2006, Friedman participated in the International Conference to Review the Global Vision of the Holocaust, stating, "I am not a denier of the Holocaust, but I think it is legitimate to cast doubt on some statistics." He said that the figure of 6 million deaths during The Holocaust was from a prophecy made before World War II and that the actual figure was closer to one million.

His children were expelled from the Talmud Torah school in Austria where the family lived. He said it was because of his participation in the Holocaust conference; the school said its fees were not paid. After being banned from the Jewish community in Austria in 2007, he moved to New York City.

His family moved to Antwerp in 2011. Because no schools would admit his children, he sue and in 2012 the court ordered a Jewish school for girls to admit his two sons or face heavy fines. In February 2013, the Court of Appeals reversed the trial court. Although Friedman styles himself rabbi, the Central Israelite Consistory of Belgium stated in 2014 that he has no right to bear the title rabbi in Belgium.
