Commentary -- Ernst Zundel, Political Prisoner - Update

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:
I'll give you a quick rundown of where we are and what has happened since Ernst was "legally" kidnapped in broad daylight on American soil on February 5, 2003:
_____ During this past month, I have had three offers of what I consider substantial money. I turned these offers down - all three of them, with gusto. Why? Because I did not know where the money came from. The moment I asked questions, these would-be donors de-materialized.
I do not want and can't afford to be assisted by what looks to me like murky money. Can you imagine what the ADL would do to us if they could establish a link to you-know-who?
For some decades now, the Zundel Information Outreach has been financed primarily by "little people", scores of them, honest and straightforward folks, most of them on marginal income. These people support us as they eke out a living in an increasingly hostile environment because of what they consider their values reflected in our work. These values are sacred to us. We don't need murky money.
_____ This past month also, one of our legal team members was approached by an odd visitor with a threadbare excuse about his unannounced visit. I wasn't there, but I imagine a gleam in his eye as he laid out on the table what he must have thought would be a very tempting offer: He would help us get Ernst Zundel released and back to Tennessee.
How? Go the ACLU route. Get a Jewish lawyer with connections.
There is a waiver, the sly stranger let it be known, that Ashcroft could sign. There are people who know how to get him to sign it.
Do the Zundels have money, he wanted to know. We could cut us a deal. No guarantee, of course. There's only one small problem. Zundel woud have to throw THEM a "sop".
What is a "sop"? I asked, when I was later told about this offer. I didn't ask, "who's THEM"?
A "sop" could be, I learned, that Zundel would agree he would no longer harp about the Holocaust. At that, I said: "Now let me get this straight. Is he telling me that I should pay that kind of money and ask Ernst to surrender his Freedom of Speech? Something that Ernst has spent practically all of his life fighting for? Forget it!"
There is a word for this kind of a "deal" - it's called extortion when a person who is loved has been kidnapped, and family members are vulnerable, fearful and hurting. Of course we are not dealing with a kidnapped child - we are dealing with a blatant attempt to imprison the truth by holding the truth teller hostage. But the danger to the kidnapped person's safety is the same. I know that all too well.
_____ Out of Germany comes word from what I consider one of the highest governmental echelons that the last thing on earth they need is Zundel to come back and cool his heels in a prison while, outside, the Right coalesces around a real live political martyr whom they admire and respect.
There are already people eager and willing to self-accuse themselves - sounds like poor grammar, doesn't it? - to flood the government with Holocaust Denial prosecution dares. Additionally, there are Zundel Sympathizers in several countries lining up, ready to fly in and help him "serve his time" by offering the government to "sit off" part of his pending sentence, by mutual agreedment a foregone conclusion.
In other words, the government of Germany, already hanging on with white knuckles against an increasingly restive population fed up to the hilt with the Holocaust Diet still being forced down their reluctant throats, is not exactly eager, or so at least it seems, to get the Zundel Problem as an additional public relations nightmare.
_____ In Canada, there is the CSIS nightmare looming for Canada's increasingly jittery Zundel foes. If Ernst is forced to stay in Canada and fight, there will be revelations about the shady CSIS stuff - such as allowing to have parcel bombs transported on passenger planes to take out inconvenient dissidents like Zundel. There is some information known to RCMP sources that has yet to be revealed - such as, let's guess, who caused the "attempted murder charge against Ernst Zundel" in 1995 to be dropped into the memory hole. RCMP is not exactly friendly to CSIS. Some people speculate there will be some surprises in the court rooms.
_____ So-called "human rights" organizations like Amnesty International have taken a real public relations hit in that they found themselves between a rock and a very hard place: How to stop Zundel supporters from the most godforsaken places from badgering their brass with inconvenient question marks? How to keep handlers at bay? Reporters tell us things in private that do not show up in their write-ups. No self-respecting scribe likes to be told to kick a man in maximum detention once more right in the shin who can't defend himself. There is a Zundel-sympathetic journalistic undertow gathering momentum that is going to cause a few splashes.
_____ I have collected hundreds of letters, half of them notarized, from people from all walks of life who are willing to come out of the closet and say: "This Zundel fellow is not the evil ogre you Zundel Haters would like to have us believe. From personal experience, we know him to be a kind, good, gentle man - a real gentleman. And it so happens, we agree with what he says - that there is something very foul about your so-called Holocaust."
You'd be amazed who is willing, these days, to endorse Ernst openly - and proudly. These letters will be used in various ways - not the least of which will be a concerted campaign in the still laid-back German-language media. Our mailing list and our connections are growing, and we haven't yet begun!
_____ Also, let's not forget, there is fall-out that is going to benefit our struggle that has nothing to do with our efforts to get Ernst freed from prison. Wherever you look, the global climate is changing, with people getting ever more resentful about the ring that has been threaded through their nostrils. A Zundel aficionado from South Africa faxed me an article documenting - I am paraphrasing here - that former Chancellor Helmut Kohl said in a rather prominent forum that America has put its own soldiers in harms way in order to accommodate the needs of Israel. Having delivered himself of that politically incorrect plum, the good ex-Chancellor deftly fell back on his own heels and added unctuously that such a sacrifice, you see, was to America's credit - because it "increased moral standing".
Would it be okay for my son, or yours, to go beat up a neighbor on the right, getting a bloody nose in the process, because it would please your neighbor on the left who sells him the idea that it would surely increase his moral standing? Where might our offspring park that "moral standing" - with blood still dripping on our kitchen floor? Is there a thinking person left who does not tell himself/herself, "...it looks we have been had!"? And who likes "to be had"?
What is being said in Germany by none other than former Chancellor Kohl is being repeated a thousand-fold in America's streets, malls and patriot meetings. You know the old adage: The enemy of my enemy is my friend. These days, there are people sympathetic to Ernst Zundel who wouldn't have dreamed taking a second look, had it not been for the mischief of America's neo-con cabal.
_____ On our legal front, all papers have been filed. They are as airtight as can be. The Vengeful Yammerers have now imported the Canadian Zundel Struggle to America. We are resolved, again, to make proverbial lemonade from lemons.
Of course, there is a simple "out" to all of the above: The Zundel foes could just pull in their tails and let my guy come back. I think he would be quite content to watch the New World Order self-destruct while standing on the sidelines.
_____ One final point: Let's quickly go on record stating that the rumors of a Mel Gibson movie about the Trials and Tribulations of Ernst Zundel are not true. :)
Stay tuned.

I've been following this one.
It seems to me there has been a travesty of justice here.
Ernst is an honorable man, married to a highly educated American citizen, living peacefully, when ZAP!
His unspecified crime is that he is critical of what passes for "The Holocaust" today, and is an avid "revisionist".
This smacks of thought police tactics, at least in my opinion.

All roads lead back to the media, without exception. If the first estate weren't controlled by enemies of the White race, things like Zundel's persecution could not happen. If America knew what was going on, she wouldn't stand for it.

Jews and Zionism are America's form of national suicide, are her idolatry, are her insanity. Religion devoted to the horrible, Jew-loving Yahweh of the Old Testament is its cult.
