I just had a call from Ernst's oldest son, Pierre,
that closing arguments have started in Ernst's Zundel's trial,
and that the Prosecutor, Grossman,
has asked for a prison sentence of 5 years for Holocaust Denial.
January 26, 2007

CINCINNATI, Ohio -- Two of three judges who denied his federal court appeal should voluntarily disqualify themselves because of improper associations with his federal government adversary, maverick publisher Ernst Zundel says in a petition filed April 12 with the U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati seeking a rehearing on his United States habeas corpus case. The court denied his bid for a habeas corpus fact-finding hearing in February 2007.

Zundel, a German national married to a United States citizen but currently jailed in Germany, is asking for either a rehearing by a new three-judge panel because of bias, or a rehearing en banc by a larger group of judges because of the critical constitutional issues his case raises, says his California attorney, Bruce Leichty.

In his request for rehearing Zundel asserts that the three-judge panel which denied his appeal failed to address his argument that his habeas rights had been unconstitutionally suspended, and failed to address the implications of "converting" his appeal into a petition for review under the REAL ID Act of 2006.

Under the REAL ID Act, immigrants hit with a deportation order are allowed only "one bite at the apple" consisting of a request to a federal appeals court for review of legal issues, notes Leichty. "The impatience of Congress with seemingly interminable federal court review of deportation orders was understandable at the time the REAL ID Act was passed in 2006," notes Leichty, "but the REAL ID Act also assumed that immigrants hit with deportation orders already had had administrative hearings and due process in front of an immigration judge. That never happened in Ernst Zundel's case."

Leichty says among its errors, the Cincinnati appeals court assigned an illegal immigrant status to Zundel that he did not have, overlooked the expiration in May 2000 of a congressional program which prevented German visitors from asserting their rights, and also failed to address the fact that Zundel in October 2000 had been given work authorization and the right to travel and return to the United States, after his wife, Ingrid Rimland Zundel, petitioned for his permanent residence as her spouse. The court further ignored the fact that INS had a policy of not deporting immigrants awaiting permanent residence through a U.S. citizen spouse petition, according to Leichty.

The Zundels were living in Tennessee and awaiting an immigration interview in 2003 when federal agents arrested him without a warrant, just a few months after the FBI had found that Zundel's conduct was protected under U.S. law and that he would likely obtain permanent residence. Upon his arrest Ernst Zundel promptly filed a petition for habeas corpus, but a federal judge in Knoxville twice disavowed any jurisdiction, and Zundel was whisked across the Canadian border while his appeal was still pending; the appeals court has now refused to require a hearing despite precedents requiring such hearings for deported immigrants when they are barred from reentering the United States, says Leichty.

Zundel discovered after his arrest that two letters sent by his Tennessee attorney to INS about rescheduling his permanent residence interview were missing from the INS file. The arresting authorities used the pretext of a "missed hearing" when they arrested Zundel, says Leichty.

"Here is a man who never had his day in any sort of court before being carted out of this country to face indefinite imprisonment in Canada and Germany under laws that Americans have historically rejected," says Leichty.

Zundel spent two years in solitary confinement in Canada while the Canadian Interior Ministry attempted to prove, through use of secret evidence, that he was a national security risk to that country, and he was then convicted in Germany in February 2007 of a speech crime after Canada deported him. He is currently sentenced to serve a five-year prison term in Germany, but plans to appeal that sentence.

Leichty states that because of the label of "Holocaust denier" attached to Zundel and the stigma associated with it, it has been difficult or impossible for Zundel to get a fair trial in any of the countries where he has been imprisoned. In Germany Zundel was not allowed to present evidence to rebut the government's contention regarding "the Holocaust," although the exact meaning of that term and the limits of acceptable discourse regarding the events of World War II remained ambiguous, says Leichty.

The judge presiding at Zundel's "security certificate" trial in Canada was a former advisor to the Canadian national intelligence service, which provided the secret evidence used to convict Zundel there--although the Canadian Supreme Court has since found that the use of secret evidence in such proceedings is unconstitutional.

The judge presiding at Zundel's trial in Knoxville found that he had written "anti-semitic" materials, a finding repeated by the Cincinnati appeals court in the first sentence of its February 2007 opinion, despite the fact that Zundel has always disclaimed anti-semitic views and despite the fact that Zundel's political opinions should have been irrelevant for the purposes of immigration issues, says Leichty.

"And now Zundel has been victimized yet again by federal appeals court judges who should have disqualified themselves from hearing his case because of partisanship," claims Leichty. One of the judges, Clinton appointee Martha Daughtrey, has a daughter working as an Assistant United States Attorney in Tennessee under Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, the respondent named in Zundel's case and also the officer heading the department litigating Zundel's habeas corpus claim.

The presiding judge in Zundel's U.S. appeal, a 2003 Bush appointee named Deborah Cook, was forced to issue a public apology in January 2007 for having tried to make a prohibited campaign contribution to the then-senior Republican Senator from Ohio, Michael DeWine, who was engaged in 2006 in a fierce reelection battle with his Democratic challenger. Investigative journalists at <http://www.Muckraker.org>www.Muckraker.org first uncovered the prohibited contribution and said that Cook initially tried to blame it on her lawyer husband before finally conceding that she didn't know such contributions were prohibited, because she missed "judge's school." President George Bush twice flew to Cincinnati to appear at fund-raisers for DeWine, one of which was held at the home of the brother of another Ohio federal judge.

Documentation of all those facts has been presented to the Court of Appeals in Cincinnati as part of Zundel's petition for rehearing, says Leichty, who notes that he didn't discover the judges' associations until after both judges showed their predisposition at oral argument in January 2007.

"Clearly when Judge Cook made that campaign contribution to a Bush crony she showed a total lack of understanding of the fact that she was obliged to leave partisan politics behind her when she was appointed to the federal bench," adds Leichty. "How then can a controversial political dissident deported by the Bush administration have any confidence in that judge?"

Leichty notes that in early April he visited with Zundel at the prison in Mannheim, Germany where he is confined. Despite appeals to international law, German judicial authorities refused to allow the two to talk confidentially, placing an "interpreter" in the room despite the fact that English has always been the language that Leichty and Zundel communicate in.

"Ernst's spirit is unbroken and he believes he will be vindicated by history in all three of the countries where he has been persecuted," says Leichty. "My immediate hope is that he will also be vindicated by the judicial system in at least the one country which still claims to protect free speech and habeas corpus and due process."

Ernst Zundel’s Case Refused
U.S. Court Refuses to Hear Imprisoned Historian’s Case

In a decision issued Feb. 27, the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in Cincinnati has unanimously upheld a lower court’s judgment stripping historian and pacifist Ernst Zundel of his right to be heard on a petition for writ of habeas corpus which was filed when Zundel was first arrested by U.S. authorities in February 2003.

The court held that the controversial German publisher had effectively bargained away his right to appear before a court because he last entered the United States under the Visa Waiver Pilot Program (VWPP) in May 2000. The court of appeals ignored Zundel’s arguments based on the U.S. Constitution and rejected his argument based on the expiration of the VWPP April 30, 2000.

Zundel has asserted that, because the VWPP had sunset by the time of his May 2000 entry, the attorney general and INS could not have permitted him entry as a “visa waiver” alien in May 2000, and were not entitled to enforce the agreement that “visa waiver” candidates have to enter into as a condition for not having to obtain a visa. Zundel was in a routine waiting period for U.S. permanent residence through his U.S. citizen wife, Ingrid, at the time of his arrest.

“Once again, Ernst Zundel has been betrayed by a federal judiciary which, in its rush to judgment, has tread roughshod on the Constitution and the letter and intent of the law in order to achieve a politically correct result,” said Zundel’s attorney, Bruce Leichty.

There is no precedent for denying an individual of Zundel’s immigration status a hearing on a habeas petition, said Leichty, who noted that the courts have routinely extended habeas rights even to illegal immigrants.

Recent appellate decisions have focused on whether enemy combatants held outside the United States have the right to habeas proceedings, but Zundel was never labeled as an enemy combatant or terrorist—despite ultimately being declared a “national security” risk by Canadian authorities after his summary removal from the United States.

“The law in this area is well established,” said Leichty, “and a different panel of the Sixth Circuit recognized in an earlier decision that immigrants like Zundel can obtain habeas hearings even after they are deported if they face a 20-year bar like the one imposed on Mr. Zundel. But this panel was not willing to apply the law.

“At the time of his arrest, Ernst Zundel was a target of several countries based on his controversial historical views about ‘the Holocaust,’ and even though he was protected by the First Amendment [in the United States], those protections have proved meaningless without judges willing to uphold them,” notes Leichty.

If the decision is allowed to stand, Zundel would be banned from reentering the United States until 2023. He is currently 67 years old.

Just weeks before the Sixth Circuit decision, he was convicted in a German courtroom of “inciting racial hatred” because of his Holocaust revisionist views. Zundel asserted that he is a pacifist who is neither anti-Semitic nor racist but that he is simply a champion of his German people, and that he has the right to express different views about what happened during the World War II, including what happened to Jews.

Zundel will seek a rehearing from different judges at the Sixth Circuit based on the unconstitutional suspension of his habeas rights and on known conflicts of interest of at least two members of the panel, says Leichty. One of the judges gave a prohibited campaign contribution to the Bush reelection campaign after being appointed to the federal bench and another has a daughter working in Tennessee for the U.S. attorney’s office, which handled the opposition against Zundel’s petition in a Knoxville federal court. Zundel’s attorney says he discovered both facts after the case was argued in January 2007. The judges adopted almost to the letter the argument of the Justice Department that sought to assert a distinction between the expiration of a “Visa Waiver Pilot Program period” and the expiration in April 2000 of the attorney general’s visa waiver authority itself—a distinction which was farcical, says Leichty.

The February appellate decision was issued “per curiam,” meaning that none of the judges acknowledged writing the decision, and it was designated “not for publication.” There have been recent attempts to limit the extent to which federal judges can issue unpublished decisions because it is believed that judges are less accountable to the law if they know their decisions will not be widely read and inspected, notes Leichty.

Only if Zundel was found to have entered the United States under the VWPP could the authorities have even thought about arresting him without a hearing, says Leichty. Typically, persons alleged to be deportable get hearings in front of immigration judges. Moreover, Leichty adds, even as to visa waiver entrants there are no published federal court decisions in which a court has ever denied jurisdiction over a habeas petition filed by someone who overstayed his visitor status.

Leichty states that at the time of Zundel’s arrest, INS had a policy of not taking deportation action against immigrants awaiting permanent residence through U.S. citizen spouses, even if they had overstayed visa waivers. Zundel had been given work authorization in the United States and permission to leave and reenter. Because a Knoxville judge and now the Sixth Circuit have claimed not to have jurisdiction, however, he has never been able to present those arguments. When Zundel challenges the latest decision, that will mean that he will have legal challenges pending in three countries. He has appealed his German “thought crime” conviction, and is also hoping to benefit from a recent Canadian Supreme Court decision which held that the “security certificate” proceedings under which he was detained in Canada are unconstitutional, because they permit secret evidence.

After a Canadian court declared him to be a national security risk, the Canadian government spent over $100,000 on a charter plane to fly Zundel to Germany, where he was promptly arrested on criminal speech charges for views expressed in Canada and the United States.

Please write the German Chancellor Angela Merkel and demand therelease of political prisoner Ernst Zundel.

You may send the letter directly to her or, even better, send it tothe nearest German Embassy of Consulate and ask that it be forwarded to her.Thus, your letter gets seen and recorded twice. Below this letter is a list of contact addressed for German diplomaticmissions around the world.

We are Canada's leading free speech advocacy group. We believe thatfreedom of speech and freedom of the press and freedom of expression arenatural extensions of freedom of conscience. I must say that we were appalled by the ruthless sentence of 5 yearsin prison meted out to political prisoner Ernst Zundel by a court inMannheim on February 15.

I call Mr. Zundel a "political prisoner" as he is in jail solely forthe non-violent expression of his political and historical views. [That isAmnesty International's defnition of a "prisoner of conscience."]

Incarcerating peaceful dissidents for expressing their opinions isunworthy of a civilized state with Germany's history of intellectual endeavour and creativity. Intellectual creativity requires freedom.

We note with dismay that the sentence seems to contradict a keyelement in the German Constitution; to wit, Sec. 5.1: "Everyone has theright to freely express and disseminate their opinions orally, in writing or visually and to obtain information from generally accessible sources withouthindrance. ... Freedom of the press and freedom of reporting throughaudio-visual media shall be guaranteed. There shall be no censorship."

Expressing his opinions in writing was all Mr. Zundel ever did. We urge you to use your power to grant him clemency and to immediately release Mr. Zundel.

As well, we find it distressing that your government seeks to pressure the nations of the EU to adopt a common law that would jail people for questioning the establishment account of World War II as it relates to the treatment of interned Jews. Not to be able to question, explore or revise history leads to stagnation and ignorance. No historical accountshould be immune to question and debate. Such a censorship law comes dangerously close to creating a new state religion and to jailing dissenters as heretics.

We believe that such repression is unworthy of Germany as a nationthat has always cherished its intellectuals. As a person who lived under a repressive dictatorship and state censorship in the former DDR (German Democratic Republic), we would hope that you would be especially sensitive to attacks on freedom of speech.

Looking forward to your response, I remain, concerned for freedom of expression for all,

It would be best if you were to send your letter to one of the American consulates and request of them to forward the letter to Germany.

Yesterday, at 7:00 AM, I received word from Ernst's son, Pierre, that a verdict had been pronounced - and that Ernst has been sentenced to the maximum penalty for "Holocaust Denial" - five years.

That's what you get in Zionist-infested Germany these days for speaking the truth as you know it and have researched and documented it.

The likewise Zionist-controlled media world-wide has been poisonous, but as a friend from Spain, having monitored the news, reported to me, and here I paraphrase from memory: "SThings are being said between the lines that were never permitted to be uttered before."

An example below from today's taz, (Die Tageszeitung) in an article by Klaus-Peter Klingelschmitt):

"In the end, the judge rejected all attempts by the defense attorneys to enter facts into evidence with the lapidären/set-in-stone argument that it is of no significance whether or not the Holocaust happened - denying it is forbidden in Germany. (!)

Just as Ernst said in a recent letter to me, 'even if I walked on water, it would not have made any difference."

I have been told that Ernst, in his summary statement, asked for an international investigative team to settle the truth about Auschwitz once and for all. "Judge Nein", of course, rejected it - as he has rejected all attempts to offer expert witnesses as well as documented, scientific proof of what revisionists have calmly argued for decades.

I am waiting for a written report about this last hearing, but I have been told by an observer that he overheard one of the attorneys comment that never in his decades of practice has he experienced such uncontrolled virulence not only against the defendant but against the attorneys and even the audience. I have also been informed that Defense Attorney Rieger himself will be charged with "Holocaust Denial." (I believe that Sylvia Stolz has already been charged, although I am not sure of the specifics.)

I used to say to friends that one of the ways I could tell that sanity and reason was winning out over hysterics is that the personal assaults against me (telephone calls, e-mail and snail mail) had abated. In 1996, when the Zundelsite first rose to prominence, vilification and demonization were daily occurrrences, but in the latter years, months would go by without a single hate message, calling me all sorts of filthy names - and worse. Yesterday, hate massages came out of the woodworks like bed bugs!

Where do we go from here? Of course, appealing this verdict will be one way of protest. We will also hold a demonstration at the German Embassy in Washington on May 7 - so, please mark your calendar. We know for a fact that the German Embassy vassals were up to their necks in the conspiracy to abduct and rendition Ernst - first to Canada, and then to Germany. We have the evidence and paper trail. The latest I heard is that the surreptitious plane that took Ernst to Germany in March of 2005, explicitly bypassing customs and media, cost the Canadian taxpayers a hefty $130,000 - not $50,000, as we had at first been told.

As a Jew here in Amerika, I have been paying close attention to Mr. Zundels travesty of justice. I was taught that Jews were bound to protect the rights and freedoms of others, even if those views were different from mine.

I have learned painfully that this has been a lie, that there are Jews who do not live by these ideals. The world has indeed been tricked by the criminal zionist cabal.

The zionists have hidden behind those of us who believe in the sanctity of the faith. The zionists did indeed sell out our brethren throughout history and when one exposes this deceit, the finger of anti-semitism is pointed. Zionists care nothing for humanity or free expression. Your support against Mr. Zundel is a lesson to us all. When ideas and thoughts become crimes, then we truly have a holocaust.

Zundel Verdict -
Five Years In A German Dungeon

By Michael A. Hoffman II
2-16-7

"I think that they've given a strong message ... to the world, that I believe will bring a tremendous amount of comfort to Holocaust survivors." --Bernie Farber, chief executive officer, Canadian Jewish Congress.

"The sentencing today of Ernst Zundel also represents a slap in the face to Iranian President Ahmadinejad's hateful campaign of Holocaust denial that unfortunately has generated too much support in the Arab and Muslim world." --The Simon Wiesenthal Center.

67-year-old Ernst Zundel's "crime" is to blaspheme the religion of Holocaustianity's "execution gas chamber" shrine at Auschwitz- Birkenau.

Protestant and Catholic Europeans have a long and ignominious history of burning, tormenting and imprisoning heretics. Zundel is now numbered with Michael Servetus, Edmund Campion and countless other independent thinkers whose ideas could not be contested, so they had to be silenced.

If Mr. Zundel really were a flat-earther, he would be laughed into oblivion. But the fact is, he has been a mentor to some of the elite scientific revisionists in the field, including former Max Planck chemist Germar Rudolf, who is on trial in Germany on similar charges.

The most disgusting aspect of the verdict against Zundel, aside from his incarceration, is the effect it will have on the Muslim world, which is sanctimoniously hectored by the West to permit more freedom of expression and to be less defensive about blasphemy of Muhammad. But the imperial West has deigned to create an exception for its own tutelary idols, about which no blasphemy may be countenanced, on penalty of five years' imprisonment. The verdict against Zundel represents a resurgence of the Dark Ages and that fact will not be lost on Muslims.

This is not the last word on Ernst! The enemies of freedom have not broken his spirit. He has been on trial intermittently for twenty- seven years. In that time, he has never recanted, compromised, or uttered a single weasel word of accommodation to the Auschwitz flatulence, even though, had he done so, he might have received a lighter sentence or been released entirely.

Mr. Zundel stands today as an example of a man who speaks spiritual truth to overwhelming material power. His ideas cannot be contained by cages and bars. From Venezuela to Iran, a new world --a youthful world -- for whom the rotten, old, Skull-and-Bones mesmerism has lost its spell-binding hold, is watching and witnessing.

The verdict against Ernst Zundel is a searing indictment of the post-modernist West. It is a self-administered "slap in the face" not to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but to every jailer-rabbi and inquisitorial Zionist who applauds it. With each clap of their hands their studied pose as the eternal victims is unmasked, and all that stands before us is the mentality that wrote the book on tyranny, in Babylon, circa 300 A.D.

Mr. Hoffman is the author of The Great Holocaust Trial, an account of Zundel's courtroom ordeal in Toronto in 1985. He may be reached at hoffman@revisionisthistory.org.

The following heavily-censored letter was written only ten days before the despicable 'verdict' in the kangaroo court 'rendering' of Ernst Zundel in Mannheim. What shame lies upon Germany and its once proud and industrious people and their remarkable history. Germany is now, as it has been since 1945, fully on its knees, the whipping boy of world zionism, doing the bidding of its masters. The Human Rights and basic legal outrages of the Zundel trial are the stuff of the darkest days of Bolshevik Russia. Mr. Zundel has already had four YEARS of his life stolen and now faces 5 years in German prison. Here is his letter...

Greetings to you from Mannheim Prison...my fifth prison in the last four years. This must be some kind of record for a man not yet convicted of anything. But that, too, will change soon - for we are in the last days of what passes for a 'judicial' proceeding here.

Jeff, NO American could believe - without actually having experienced it - what is going on here. The unfamiliar or the non-initiated could simply not believe that in an otherwise modern nation, proceedings like these could actually take place.

Still, I am not allowed to discuss the details of the case, and still, my incoming and outgoing mail is tightly censored. And several times already, letters written by Ingrid to me have been used against me (us?) in the proceedings, as have my own letters, of all things, dealing with Biblical topics...and get this: KARMA and REINCARNATION.

It is amazing to me to see how far things can go in the nations where there is no tradition of Freedom of Speech like we have in America...and HAD in Canada until the Marxists and their cronies - or should I say 'useful idiots' took over.

Jeff, it is stunning to see how subjugation and repression will manifest and grow like a cancerous tissue if no one steps in to stop such a creeping, terminal affliction.

I consider myself one of the luckiest Germans for having had the foresight to leave this place so early in my life, and to have enjoyed my most vital years in Canada and America, which were then, when I arrived, fantastic places throbbing with energy, full of assertive self-confidence and moral strength. There was a refreshing vigor, a can-do and will-do attitude and mood prevalent that was utterly invigorating. I am so glad my children and grandchildren can live there in freedom.

It is an eerie feeling to be living in a modern, in every other respect, state but with such deeply-ingrained limitations and culture myths or taboos that very, very few dare stray outside of the politically-correct intellectual playpens.

For me, the free-roaming spirit which has spent a lifetime expanding my horizon, and investigating all manner of things and ideas is an incredible blessing. I find, instead, the willingness of these current Germans to live - and think - in carefully proscribed, blinkered mental prisons to be incomprehensible.

It is interesting to watch German 'talk shows' about virtually any topic. They resemble stiff, repressed, super-cautious carefully mentally-scripted rituals. To view them and to have to listen to them, for us who are used to the give and take of free, roaming discussions, is almost unbearable at times.

When I try to explain to them that in America one could write about and discuss virtually any topic without the ever-present threat of being arrested, tried, convicted, fined and even imprisoned for just thinking or writing about things other than the orthodox, generally accepted viewpoints, seems unbelievable to most. They respond as if one is feeding them some kind of American propaganda. Thus, I often feel like a fish out of water.

As you well know, I am no stranger to attempts by powerful, well- organized lobbies to enforce their own norms and versions of history and events on people - so I am not naive when it comes to questions of censorship. However, it is something totally different from state-imposed, criminally- sanctioned dictates by the state to tell you not to touch on specific topics.

After centuries of experience with repressive monarchs, communists and other regimes and their censors - and the crippling effects they have on society - one should think that the benefits of an unfettered exchange of ideas would seem like an obvious and ideal solution. Unfortunately, what seem obvious and logical to us who are 'infected' with the First Amendment intoxicant, seems positively frightening to every trigger-happy bureaucrat and village policeman and 'do-gooder' around the corner.

I was just sent the decision by the Northern District Federal Court of San Jose, CA, of November 7, 2001 - the famous Yahoo vs the French Court decision in which private French lobbies had demanded that Yahoo cease and desist from allowing websites on their provider which espoused viewpoints these lobbyists didn't like, and products they did not want to be offered to the public.

I have never seen the reasoning by the court in this case, No. C-00-21275JF, November 7, 2001.

Jeff, it is one of the FINEST articulations I have seen of just what the First Amendment protects.

Usually, we get the 'horse and buggy', motherhood and apple pie explanations, sounding out of touch with the modern electronic age of instant global communications.

This San Jose Court has updated and clarified, as well as made relevant, the vital role this over 200 year old legislation means to today's Americans, or all those who live in the geographic area where U.S. laws hold sway.

The document was sent to me by Joseph T. McGinnis, Ingrid's and my attorney in the current litigation in the U.S. against my being denied habeas corpus rights, etc, currently before U.S. courts. The question of official U.S. views and laws pertaining to the internet had been, of course, raised in the proceedings here in Germany by the defence. I knew the outline, or Gestalt, of the U.S. view - but needed hard evidence to prove that what I claimed was right.

Well, this California court ruling supplied that proof, and my German lawyer used it 'in whole' as an official exhibit, filing it with the court on the last day while pleadings had already begun.

The document was declared 'irrelevant' (by the judge) but I was more than pleased to strike one more blow for Freedom. My job was to alert the court to other standards of liberty existing where I lived and worked at the time of arrest (read: kidnapping -ed), incarceration and removal from America without ever having been brought before an American judge.

By the time you get this letter, the verdict may already be in here, but Jeff my case is only one case of many going on in this country. Apparently, there have already been 120,000 similar cases since 1992, virtually all ending in convictions with heavy fines and/or stiff jail terms.

The prosecutor already pleaded for five years in prison, and denying me the two years I served in Guantanamo North in Canada, which would, in effect, mean SEVEN years imprisonment for merely expressing ideas, non-violently, for which the Canadian Supreme Court - where I had lived most of my adult life - had found me Not Guilty.

The Court ruled, in fact, that a minority member in multi-ethnic Canada must have a right to his own viewpoint - even if the majority found it not to their liking - or, even if those views were wrong. August 27, 1992.

In a way, Jeff, this case is comparable to a Chinese emigrant living in Canada or America or Australia bowing to the ONE CHILD per family law in place in Communist China. Mao's government adopted that law, as you know, and every Chinese couple is allowed only one child per family. Should the woman become pregnant a second time 'accidentally,' the couple gets hit with a heavy fine. Should there be any further 'accidents,' the wife (or husband) will go to jail and have a state-ordered abortion performed. In China, this issue is a serious crime which is severely punished.

Chinese families were traditionally large, as in other Asian countries, because children were considered 'old age insurance' for the parents.

There are tens of thousands of Chinese - if not millions - who have fled China for other lands in order to practice the Chinese tradition of large families. There are approximately 35 million Chinese overseas and most of those families have more than one child.

China does not ask the Canadians or Americans to imprison their overseas Chinese for having broken this Communist Chinese law. I have not heard of one Chinese deported from Canada or the U.S. for having offended that repressive Red Chinese law.

I certainly have never heard of the Communists having made requests to the Canadian or U.S. governments insisting they stop their overseas Chinese - local residents - from exercising their reproductive freedom. I am also not aware that Chinese returning home to China for a visit with their grandchildren or to visit relatives in China, were arrested for breaking this stringent law while living outside of China proper.

But, Jeff, such is the mindset of the blinkered indoctrinated Europeans who consider themselves enlightened and sophisticated - and that includes virtually anyone I have spoken to - that they cannot or will not see the similarity of the situation. The situation is, of course, ludicrous!

This is a CENSORED letter from a very sad, schizoid place. Be glad you are there...and not here.

Keep the flame of Freedom burning. In spite of Iraq, Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo - America is still a good place to be - the last free place. Keep it so. It is precious.

Ernst has told me repeatedly to brace myself for a truly shocking verdict. In one of his recent letters he wrote that "...even if I walked on water, the outcome would still be the same."

We'll see. I am leafing through some of his recent letters, and in one of them, dated Jan. 29, 07 he writes, right up front:

"Es geht aufwärts/Things are looking up! That may seem like gallow's humour in my situation - a day or two away from being convicted to a prison term worse than violent rapists, dope pushers, and child molesters are given. Ingrid, rest assured - the outcry caused by the severity of the sentence will reverberate around the world and keep this case and the issues NOT dealt with squarely on the table. These people do not understand the dynamics at work. They are, like so many Germans, still victims of their induced-by-indoctrination "Weltbild", all the while accusing me and [my attorneys] of the most vile intentions. Sometimes I think I am in a time warp..."

There is more that I will report on in days and weeks to come - for now, let's just say that when Ernst wrote those words, he must have assumed that his prison sentence would run consecutively on the 14 charges of Holocaust Denial heaved at him. He has been threatened his sentence could be as long as 15 years!

Since then, we know that the prosecutor must have had second thoughts about that kind of a sentence - he modestly asked for "only" five years!

My information about the last two hearing dates, February 2 and 9, have been verbal only and, hence, scant about what actually happened. I am summarizing here subjectively what I have so far been told.

The defense summations have now concluded. They are described as "stunning" by participants. It is not Ernst Zundel who is on trial but the system - a judicial system corrupt to the core, laid bare in all of its venality for all the world to see! Apparently some moments were so searing that Dr. Meinerzhagen got the screaming meemies and threatened he would charge the attorneys with Holocaust Denial! It is a pity that we don't have written summaries of what was actually said - because the German system does not allow transcripts and also no recordings.

Dr. Schaller, 84 years old and health-wise very frail, spoke with the sharpest precision. He was in so much physical pain that he had to break off his presentation on February 2nd and finish it on the 9th. This venerable gentleman, an Austrian at that, threw his all into this struggle, and all of us who understand wht's really playing here are offering this exemplary Warrior for the Truth our highest admiration and respect. I have been told he has been brutally insulted by the prosecution on more than one occasion. Is there no longer in the German judiciary a feeling of civility due this brave man who rallies his last strength on earth to secure the freedom not only of Ernst Zundel but of the German people?

Dr. Bock, our other attorney, spoke briefly but also sharply to the point. His summation was described with much enthusiasm by people in the courtroom as "extraordinary".

Lead attorney Jürgen Rieger took 6 hours for his summation argument. It, too, was described as "very, very good." From what I have seen so far, the Zionist-controlled media, true to their modus operandi, smears him and the other defense attorneys with the usual derogatory epitephs and fabrications - below is a sample, for what it is worth:

Defense seeks acquittal of far-right activist Ernst Zundel at German trial / The Associated Press / 9 Feb 2007

MANNHEIM, Germany: Defense lawyers on Friday urged a German court to acquit Ernst Zundel, a far-right activist who was deported from Canada, of incitement charges stemming from persistent denial of the Holocaust.

The defense team called for Zundel's acquittal during a court session in which one lawyer, Ludwig Bock, quoted from Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf" and from Nazi race laws. [My comment: I think this is an out and out lie - or at the very least, taken out of context! I was not told this happened!]

Bock accused the state court in Mannheim of not wanting to face a "scientific analysis" of the Holocaust and charged that prosecutors - one of whom has termed Zundel a "rat catcher" - had defamed his client.

Prosecutors accuse Zundel, a 66-year-old German deported from Canada in 2005, of years of anti-Semitic activities, including denying the Holocaust - a crime in Germany - in documents and on the Internet.

They have urged the court to convict Zundel of 14 counts of incitement and sentence him to five years in prison.

Prosecutor Andreas Grossmann has labeled Zundel a "political con man" from whom the German people must be protected.

Since Zundel's deportation, he and his supporters have argued that he is a peaceful campaigner denied his right to free speech.

I just had a call from Ernst's oldest son, Pierre, that closing arguments have started in Ernst's Zundel's trial, and that the Prosecutor, Grossman, has asked for a prison sentence of 5 years for Holocaust Denial.

A decision will be rendered in a week.

Pierre received this information from Ernst's sister, based in Germany, who heard it on the radio. She said it was just a fifteen-second announcement without any details.

That is all I know for now. I will keep you posted.

On Prison Restrictions & Spies
A So-Called Modern Democracy Uses SOVIET
Tactics To Suppress A Prisoner's Rights

My fourth Christmas behind bars is here. This week I will attend the second Christmas party organized by our prison chaplain. He is a local/regional man, a real Martin Luther type in looks and in his down-to-earth approach to things. That party last year was attended by the usual types - double murderers, drug dealers, common wife beaters, child abusers, pickpockets, check and credit card fraud artists, gamblers, and one lone historical revisionist.

The prison staff, the social workers, the prison shrink, some security staff were all genuinely nice and humane - a far cut above what I experienced in the U.S.A. and Canada. The worst were the Tennesseans, I am sad to report. They were big brutes of men, ill-bred, obese, nasty, ignorant, cold-hearted. In their button-popping, stretched-to-the-limits uniforms, they looked like the bottom of the barrel from some central casting office for a cheap 1960s anti-Nazi, "Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS" type of film. You know how Hollywood portrays the Germans.

This was in contrast to some of the giant, blond haired, blue eyed Batavians in the area of Attica I met while temporarily imprisoned in New York state en route to Canada. That whole region south of Lake Ontario was settled and pioneered by Germans, Hessians and Pennsylvania Deutsch [not Dutch]. These men were open-faced, uncomplicated, kind and human - well, what can I say? They were Germanic.

Now on to world news. Unfortunately I have very few sources of information - I am reduced to depending on the mainstream media and the necessity to read between the lines. Because of the judge's ruling, I generally do not receive, nor can I send, much in the way of thoughts or ideas. This includes art, science, health care and related medical topics - these are redacted from letters without mercy. Imagine that - in the 21st Century no less!

Last week I received a letter sent to me by a supporter - in Munich on August 2, 2005! The same day I also received another letter mailed on July 6, 2006 and several others from July. So don't be disheartened if you do not hear from me for months - it means someone is holding up the mail. Ingrid sometimes gets no mail from me for six to eight weeks, worries like crazy, only to be handed nine letters in one day. My oldest son was handed three letters on the same day, months ago. It makes me ill to think that these same people prattle on all the time about the superiority of their system and their humanity when compared to former regimes.

Can you believe the embarrassment Bush and his clique must be suffering from in relationship to their trouncing in the polls? I was on a high for a week. Ingrid described my letters as euphoric. There are of course reasons to be overjoyed. I have said to Ingrid and others for a long time that what befell America on 9-11 would come back to haunt the true perpetrators - and, no, I don't mean the alleged nineteen Arabs the media keep shoving in our faces. Bush Sr. and his circle of "old money Republicans" are doing their best to save the Bush dynasty's reputation. I doubt it will work this time, Bush no longer commands much respect anywhere in the world.

I was overjoyed to see the GOP lose so badly, because many of them have defiled American values for decades. Finally they have been subjected to a modicum of exposure. Many of them did their best to ignore my case and Ingrid's appeals, while at the same time being highlighted in the press as alleged champions of American traditions, i.e. free speech etc. Swift Karma was done! CNN news with Larry King announced this morning at about 11 AM local time that Bill Frist of Tennessee, who was once touted as a future Presidential contender, decided that it would be better not to run for President than to reveal all of his financial dealings over the last several years.

Despite all of the machinations, despite all the lies and innuendo, Ingrid and I are not disgraced, because most people can see through the lies. They realize that the media and government have no credibility. It doesn't take people long to then conclude that these same individuals and entities might also be lying about many other things.

This nightmare will be over one day - the guilty will be exposed, charged and convicted. The night that the Republicans were driven out of office signaled the beginnings of a change - now [others] have the power to issue subpoenas. We'll soon see if they have any intention of using this power. If not, no matter - they'll be exposed in short order as well.

I am afraid there is a great deal of bad karma [coming] - too many Americans have been mistreated by the powerful and well-connected. How that will play out remains to be seen. We now have the means to reach virtually every man, woman and child on this planet via the Internet - the truth can't be suppressed forever, and judging by the speed of world events, I'd say it can't be suppressed much longer. Americans appear to be quickly tiring of the lies and deceit.

Perhaps we'll all have ringside seats to watch the ushering in of a new era? It won't all happen immediately. It will take more than a few years - but it seems inevitable at this point.

The chickens are truly coming home to roost

The chickens are truly coming home to roost

14, November, 2006

Dear X

It’s less important to listen to what they say… It’s far more important to watch what they do!

As we are heading for the final few gasping days of this enterprise [remember, I am not permitted to discuss the legal case against me] I thought I’d comment on a few observations related to the political turmoil in the United States, in Iraq, Afghanistan, Gaza and Lebanon. The chickens are truly coming home to roost - right on the doorstep of the great deceivers and the ever so clever manipulators.

I have only five pages I am allowed to write, so I can’t possibly cover everything, but you are free and have access to far more news sources than I do, do some research and see if I’m not seeing things with clarity.

I highly recommend the famous “Opus Magnum” of the British historian and military strategist General J.F.C. Fuller, “The Decisive Battles of Western Civilization.” There are second hand copies available on the Internet for $15 - $30 [US]. Consider the decline of the Roman Empire and then compare that to what has happened in Britain and the United States over the last 100 years - and you’ll see history unfolding in similar ways. The real importance of Fuller’s insights is that he not only pays attention to the “chronological bean counting,” as most important historians do, but that he also details the corruption of reckless politicians that resulted in the rivers of blood spilled on the European battlefields of WWI and WWII, and how that seriously depleted the European gene pool for all eternity. That’s why we no longer find so many Homers, Platos, Alexander the Greats, within our midst and in the streets of modern Athens and Rome.

By 400 AD the Roman Legions were already filled with non-native Romans - by that time few Germanic, or Gallic-Saxons were still around - they had already been wiped out and replaced with mercenary Mongols. Can you see the comparison? Much of today’s modern American military is filled with individuals born in other countries that really aren’t loyal to western man as much as they are still loyal to their places of birth and the fabricated multicultural myth that has become America. Look at the troops that surround Bush in the photo-ops that one sees in newspapers and on television - I can see the changes just by reading their names.

When I see photos of modern United States Marines, the make up looks like the British Colonial units of the 19th century - we’ve covered this topic before, while I was imprisoned at Toronto-West. In any case, Major General Fuller describes how “Rome, lost its vigor,” and thus its Empire. Native Romans gave into materialism and allowed others to do the dirty work - but the chickens came home to roost [literally] and the non-native Roman military came home and sacked Rome. Fuller explains in stark simple words how Rome’s social and agricultural policies also played a key role in its destruction - like in the United States the former “Roman farmer,” was eventually replaced by “super farms,” lorded over by absentee land owners,” who didn’t care one bit about the quality of the food they produced only in the profits they could extract. Can we see similarities today, with the Archer Daniel Midland type super corporations run from New York and Chicago?

The Romans called their absentee landlords “Latifundias,” the Soviets called theirs “Kolchoses,” the Israelis “Kibbutzes,” in all cases they were a long way away from the concept of the German and early American family owned farm. The core on which the stability of western civilization was built. I myself grew up on one of these farms; dirt poor, but boy oh boy was I happy, I knew every nook and cranny on that hillside. I knew where potatoes would grow well and where they wouldn’t. I knew where only weeds would grow, where snakes would slither and where wasps and hornets made life difficult. We knew by the kind of flowers in the meadows and the strength of their stalks if a field was depleted and whether or not it needed more dung. Every true dweller of the land, from Jefferson at Monticello, to George Washington, to Goethe in his gardens, all the way back to Greek and early Roman citizen had a bonding with the soil of which they were born - their native soil. As a result they grew their own food and derived the nutritional benefits so associated.

Arminius - the “Hermann der Cherusher” showed the Romans what good food and close association with the land could do when he shattered the Roman Legions of Quintilius Varus, wiping them out in a fierce guerilla campaign in Tentoburg Forrest [9 AD].

History and the understanding of it can be of immense help in groping ones way through the current minefield of lies, spin doctored news, and deceptions so common in today’s headlines.

Major General Fuller also analyzes the role that commerce and trade played in the Roman Empire, especially as it related to the imports of goods and services from foreign lands and how they led to the initial prosperity, but ultimate decline of Rome. [See the similarities again?] The Roman fleets sailed the known world, every port in the entire “boot” of modern Italy was crowded to the gioll, every language was spoken, there was nothing that one could not buy, they had their own versions of “container ships,” the Romans gave up their own industries, because the domestic industries couldn’t compete with the cheap foreign imports [sound familiar]. Instead Rome purchased goods from ancient versions of Hong Kong, Shanghai, Seoul, or Bombay - as a result - Rome fell. It is uncanny how very, very similar Rome’s fall is to what we see happening in the United States today - the United States government allows the outflow of capital and more importantly jobs to foreign lands, few goods are today produced in America, most Americans have never grown anything in a garden, haven’t even run their fingers through productive soil - some even consider the idea absurd, believing that soil is somehow dirty. Crazy!

Like modern America, Rome too suffered the consequences of a quickly declining birthrate, plummeting fertility, related to a number of causes, I.e. lead toxicity, materialism, selfishness, etc… It is the lead they used in their storage containers and water system that led directly to sterility in Roman males. The depleted soils of their lands produced poor quality food, just as is the case in modern America. The Romans, just like modern Americans, Germans, Canadians, were dying from the effects of malnutrition with full bellies. When and where this didn’t effectively destroy the Roman, their deviant lifestyle, embrasure of homosexuality, orgies, materialism and frivolous entertainment did the job. Rome’s Punic wars and insane hatred and jealousies of the Carthaginians were as stupid as America and Britains punitive expeditions during WWI and WWII and had ultimately the same results - Rome wasted the flower of its manhood, the sons of the gifted died on the fields of war, and the lesser quality Roman stayed behind and proliferated, allowing others to do their fighting and dying, which inevitably led to Germans, Goths, Gauls, Celts, and Saxons filling the legion ranks, changing the Roman character from its former homogenous composition to a heterogeneous amalgamation of non-Romans that weren’t as interested in advancing the interests of Rome as were their predecessors. Even these non-Romans began to act like Romans, they began to eat the same food, grown in the same nutrient poor soils, they shopped at Roman markets and embraced the deviant Roman lifestyle and in the end, they too, succumbed.

Rome, like modern America, had to cast an ever wider net, open its gates to immigrants from Arabia, Asia, Egypt and even black Africa - Rome’s population did not replace itself and Rome paid the price. Isn’t it odd that Americans, Canadians, Germans, French, British, and the Scandinavians are encouraged to abort their children, but are then told that they need to import foreigners in order to fill jobs that aren’t being filled by the native born? Does that make sense? It’s almost as if someone has an agenda at work no? The American author Ernst Sevier Cox wrote in his book “Sex versus Civilization” that in each “high culture” there comes a “magic intersection” or point when the faster breeding “problem makers,” outpace the slower breeding “problem solvers.” Unfortunately Americans, Canadians, Germans, in fact, all of Western Europe, Eastern Europe and even Russia have already passed that point and since the mid-1960s we have been in free fall. Problems just don’t happen, they inevitably have a cause. We can’t “fix” our problems now, because we are stymied by the demands of political correctness imposed on us by the media and our foolish governments. We are unable to correct the problems because we are not allowed to see them for what they are, we’re subjected to media created taboos, religious deformations, and yes, “loss of vigor,” as a result of our degenerated physical and intellectual capacities/capabilities.

That’s it for today - more later. Golgotha is waiting.

Bizarro Heresy Zundel Trial:
Judge orders five (!) policemen to prevent eight-year-old from shaking Ernst's hand!

Part of the following is from our December Power Letter, delayed due to unforeseen "mishaps" of our volunteer letter stuffers. More about that in our January Report.

November saw three additional Zundel hearings, on the 10th, on the 17th., and on the 29th. There is nothing meaningful to be reported - it was simply "more of the same." Repeatedly, the judge evoked the mantra of the "obviousness" of the traditional Holocaust tale, directly and indirectly, and refused to allow either expert witnesses or documentary evidence to the contrary. He is now complaining that the Internet calls it a "Ketzerprozeß" - a Heresy Trial - what else is one to call it?

Just to give you a flavor of what was going on on the 10th - a female witness appeared out of the woodworks who testified she had received a letter out of Canada some years ago - she wasn't sure just when. She did not recall the name "Zundel." She thought it came from Ottawa - Ernst Zundel lived in Toronto. She did not recall any specifics about the contents of this letter - only that it appeared to her to have come from the "extreme right" of which she disapproved. She was afraid that if the government found out that she was on a forbidden list, there might be a raid on her home. Therefore she took that letter to the authorities to emphasize her innocence in even having received it. She testified there was a second letter, which she returned unopened.

That's it. That is the "quality" of evidence for which the Bundesrepublic has wasted millions Deutschmark and Euros.

To that, Ernst added his human touch of Zundelism in a letter dated 20 Nov 2006:

"Even if the media cannot know what our submissions are like in detail, something does get through, because at the end, after the court has announced and read their Beschlüsse/Orders, the lawyers get a chance to respond with a Gegendarstellung/our point of view- a kind of response which is written and read out loud. Thus the media, and our old friends who attend faithfully, get at least some idea of what was not allowed them to be privy to with the [original motions to be read only by the prosecutor and judges].

"Ingrid, I am looking forward to see how the highest court in Germany is going to rule about this Kafkaesque, contorted situation. That's about the best way I can explain to you how all this takes place. I just sit there and let this surreality wash all over me - and wonder if this is really to be my life from now on? Just so these mixed-up people can hang on to their lollypop of guilt? Somehow, Ingrid, the longer I am exposed to what's going on, and what dark demons these people collectively want to wallow in to "feel good" - [all I can say is this] - it's pathological!

"I am not allowed to stay in the room [during recess], but am taken down to the holding cell in the basement, and am not allowed to speak to people or wave to them.

"There was a couple there today with a boy about [eight] years old. The parents apparently must have spoken about the trial at home because it was the boy's ardent wish to shake my hand. The court policeman, a very nice, helpful fellow, said that he and the other police present were there to prevent me from having any contact with the public. The boy stood there, very serious and very intently, deeply looking at me from about 5 meter's distance. Very still, unmoving, alert eyes, expressive face. So [Defense Attorney] Jürgen Rieger asked Dr. Meinerzhagen aloud if he would permit me to shake the boy's hand. The answer was a very indignant NEIN. I felt embarrassed for the boy. What kind of an impression did he take home with him, and how will the parents have explained that to that youngster? Ingrid, it was an uncanny, eerie feeling, a scene that will be very powerful in the movie about this trial. I penetrated deeply into that boy's psyche - you know about that ability - and I can tell you, it was a meeting out of which will come something in the future. I simply know it. What a strange life I live!

"In the bus on the way back home the inmate next to me knew me because two days ago there was a TV news program about Germar being on trial in Mannheim now - and, interestingly, somehow my name and images from my court cases in Canada always are shown to frame these stories. It's eerie, because the prisoners come running from all kinds of floors and cells out in the hall, and also during our one-hour walks in the yard, respectfully tug at my sleeve, tell me what scenes they saw on TV, describing the bobbing helmets, the screaming mobs etc. And then - many are foreigners - they want to know what this is all about. Since I listen to and watch mainly English, French, and Spanish stations, I usually miss these German broadcasts. That, too, is odd. It's like having my own media monitors in the form of foreigners, of all things."

Can't you just see it in my screen play I have begun to write for a feature movie? I know that some of you were a bit angry at me that I walked out of the original Hollywood deal and produced my documentary myself. Believe me, I had very good reasons. Things were going on that were not ethical, and had I relinquished to them the money that I raised, without having any control over either the budget or the slant of the film, we would have lost it all. (Š) As you can see from the above, clips of my documentary are now even playing on German television, because the scenes that Ernst describes, the bobbing helmets, the screaming mobs - those are clips from our footage! And no telling what will come of our Arab contacts, now that I have three sub-documentaries produced in addition to the original, 4 1/2 hour version. Additionally, I have published a little booklet called "Five Stony Tears for Audre" that gives a human glimpse of life and death of Audre Pinque, known on the Internet as MacKenzie Paine, who was a Revisionist activist for the beleaguered Palestinians before she died in 2002. It is a slim, saddle-stitched booklet, only 32 pages long, that I intend to be a bridge between Revisionists and those who have a false image of us - who we are, what we believe in, and that we aren't those grotesque, low-brow, wild-eyed "white supremacist racists" our enemies would like the world to believe.

There is a postscript to that story of the eight-year-old who was "protected" by the judge from catching something politically incorrect from Ernst Zundel. His parents and some Zundelists in the courtroom contacted me and told me that Judge Meinerzhagen actually ordered five (!!!) policemen to surround the boy to prevent a dash and a handshake! One of the young policeman is said to have answered: "Dies ist mir doch zuviel!" which, loosely translated, means "This really takes the cake!"

There was another Zundel hearing on Friday, November 10. There is nothing meaningful to be reported except to state that it was "more of the same." Repeatedly, the judge evoked the mantra of the "obviousness" of the traditional Holocaust tale and refused to allow either expert witnesses or documentary evidence to the contrary.

Just to give you a flavor of what was going on on Friday - a female witness appeared out of the woodwork who testified she had received a letter out of Canada some years ago, she wasn't sure just when. She did not recall the name "Zundel." She thought it came from Ottawa - Ernst Zundel lived in Toronto. She did not recall any specifics about the contents of this letter - only that it appeared to her to have come from the "extreme right" of which she disapproved. She was afraid that if the government found out that she was on a list the government frowned on, there might be a raid on her home. Therefore, she took that letter to the authorities to emphasize her innocence in even having received it. She testified there was a second letter, which she returned unopened.

That's it. That is the "quality" of evidence for which the Bundesrepublic has wasted millions Deutschmark and Euros.

The word now is that a verdict - "Guilty!" - is going to be spoken within the next two hearings, and that it is going to be brutal in terms of time still to be served. Ernst has prepared me for weeks to brace myself for the worst. He certainly is ready - there is not an inch he is going to give, for groveling is simply not in his nature.

However! Please take heart! Please do not weaken in resolve! Last week I came into possession of some stunning summary documents pertaining to this joke of a "trial" that will be of great interest and usefulness to the discerning. You will hear more about that when the time is right and the soil has been prepared.

Ever more we can see that the war we are fighting is a global, spiritual war that will call to the front the world's Spartans of the Spirit.

MANNHEIM, Germany: A 42-year-old German deported from the United States went on trial Tuesday on allegations of Holocaust denial.

Germar Rudolf, who published a study claiming to prove that the Nazis did not gas Jews at the Auschwitz concentration camp, faces a possible five-year prison sentence if convicted.

In his opening statement, prosecutor Andreas Grossmann said Rudolf used the Internet to spread documents attacking historical truths.

Rudolf was sentenced in 1995 in Germany to 14 months in prison for Holocaust denial, but then disappeared. He applied for political asylum in the United States in 2000, but was rejected and was deported last year to serve the 1995 sentence.

He was arrested when he appeared at an immigration office in Chicago to apply for a green card based on his marriage to a U.S. citizen.

Rudolf is being tried in the same state court in Mannheim that is currently hearing a similar but unrelated case against Ernst Zundel, a German deported from Canada last year.

Big hug! I finally got your September 24th letter this afternoon. It was stuck at German Customs and was only received at the court on the 10th and then, censored, sent on to me very fast, as you can see - in only three days!

It's amazing how our letters have to run the gauntlet, here and there. You have my absolute priority - we will overcome these indignities. I did not bow to bombs, beatings, fires, imprisonment by these ghetto dwellers in America or Canada - I'll not likely give in to their lackeys here or anywhere else.

About feeling empathy - Ingrid, these people do not deserve your or my empathy. They are eager and willing accomplices not only to something obviously unfair but immoral and cynical and will one day be found to have been illegal - contrary to their own laws and international conventions and treaties they have signed and sworn oaths to uphold. You have seen how the Arar enquiry with all the restrictions imposed on it found the extraordinary renditions to be flawed and illegal and the Canadian Intelligence and Police Agencies to have acted despicably and unprofessionally. No wonder Parliament apologized. The RCMP Chief apologized to Arar, and the Commissioner suggested that they review three others who are held, as I was held, at the Toronto West Detention Center in isolation also. Naturally they were too cowardly to apologize and rehabilitate me - yet!

Ingrid, they will apologize! They will do it publicly. They will publish it, and they will pay me and you millions of dollars in compensation. How do I know? Ingrid, Bush and Cheney will be lucky, very lucky if they get to serve out the rest of their terms in office. We are close to an upheaval of horrific proportions that will change the political landscape drastically. Nothing will be as it has been up to now.

I agree with most of these people commenting on the treason that was 9/11. Ingrid, if Franklin Weiss and Rose get 12 years in prison for their merely political betrayals via AIPAC, imagine what it will get Bush and Cheney for allowing 3,000 people to die on 9/11, and 15,000 since from asbestos disease from the planned, collapsing demolition towers!

The truth is out there. I was one of the very first, within minutes of the towers collapsing, to point out that we were looking at a planned demolition. To my knowledge, I was the only one then and to date to point to that late-into-the-night cabinet meeting with butcher Sharon and his fellow plotters. I was one of the first to give maximum exposure to that Russian economist's warning and to publish President Putin's MSNBC's interview when he was in New York, stating that Russian intelligence had warned Bush. We now know from Newsweek and Bob Woodward's book, State of Denial, that on 10 Juli '01 Condi Rice was warned by the CIA Chief Tenet and Cofer Black, Counter Terrorism Chief then, that America was being targeted, and planes were to be involved.

I was pleased you sent me that list of prominent Americans demanding a re-opening of the 9/11 Investigation. Remember, Ingrid, I used to say to you that the people who planned this 9/11 operation were older, pre-Internet Special Forces military planners. They did not take into consideration the instant transmission of news - expertise, drawings, photos, and especially video images - of the collapsing, burning towers. Suddenly, a world-wide audience, many of them computer-skilled, most of them university-trained, could see these images and apply their own deductive reasoning and analysis skills and come to the conclusion that you have seen expressed in that list.

Ingrid, what you have reproduced is a list of Who's Who in America in the field of military tactics, technology, policy, etc., far superior in training and education [to me] - and not lacking courage and drive. They took 5 years to come up with what took me 14 days to put down in black and white and from then on merely flesh it out. I reread everything from that moment on until my arrest - I am glad to have it confirmed from such experts and highly placed people. You see, the Internet made it possible. What would have taken 50-60 years in the last century has been exposed and solved beyond many doubts in 5-6 years.

That policemen, intelligence officers, prosecutors, and judges in the US and Canada would lend their reputations and policies [to this crime] has already been condemned by the US Supreme Court, by the US Federal Courts and the Canadian Arar Commission - and that's only the beginning! The Iraq and Afghanistan debacle now unraveling will shake up the corrupt old political order to a degree not experienced in the Western World since the Bolshevic Revolution. For the first time, I sense that there may well be a quasi military coup in the USA by an officers' and intelligence corps alert to the subversion and usurpation of power by non-elected or fraudulently elected and appointed people. Gangsters of a new kind!

All the people you listed have colleagues, circles of friends in the officers' mess halls. They attend the same golf clubs and masonic lodges. The tone is quiet fury - that's a pre-revolutionary mood! That's what precedes seismic shifts in calcified old orders. It is like in Ancient Rome, pre-French Revolutionary France, pre-Bolshevic Revolution Russia - and Weimar 1029-30.

History will be harsh to the perpetrators of these unspeakable crimes - all, Ingrid, I repeat, all - who have tried or are still trying to impede the investigation of high treason. Trying to prevent the solution of the crime of mass murder in Canada, as it does in America, [means they are] becoming active accessories to these crimes. 10-15 years in prison are waiting.
