During the war, Germany stockpiled tabun, sarin, and soman but refrained from their use on the battlefield. In total, Germany produced about 78,000 tons of chemical weapons.[4] By 1945 the nation produced about 12,000 tons of tabun and 1,000 pounds (450 kg) of sarin.[4] Delivery systems for the nerve agents included 105 mm and 150 mm artillery shells, a 250 kg bomb and a 150 mm rocket.[4] Even when the Soviets neared Berlin, Adolf Hitler was persuaded not to use tabun as the final trump card. The use of tabun was opposed by Hitler's Minister of Armaments, Albert Speer, who, in 1943, brought IG Farben's nerve agent expert Otto Ambros to report to Hitler. He informed Hitler that the Allies had stopped publication of research into organophosphates (a type of organic compound that encompasses nerve agents) at the beginning of the war, that the essential nature of nerve gases had been published as early as the turn of the century, and that he believed that Allies could not have failed to produce agents like tabun. This was not in fact the case, but Hitler accepted Ambros's deduction, and Germany's tabun arsenal remained unused.[5]

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhh
To play devil's advocate it's clear what he means. He just phrased it so badly both denying chemical weapons and "holocaust centers" I think he just got flustered. It's like if someone said "I have some coke in my fridge if you want one" and then getting mad because it's actually Pepsi. His point is that Hilter didn't drop tabun bombs on allied forces despite being capable of doing so. Bashar or at least his men did, Feels weird defending Spicer because he's so out of his depth it's comical but these feels like textbook "Gotcha!" media reaction to poor wording rather than actually doing something horrible.

He's technically not incorrect since Hitler never employed chemical weapons in war. I'm just not sure what Spicer was hoping to gain by comparing Assad to an individual who is still infamous for using chemicals to kill his own people, even if it wasn't in weapon form.

"Yeah, but he never dropped it on them from the sky" is such a meaningless statement. His only possible point could be that Syria is worse that Hitler and that is questionable to say the least.
