Hi Keith and all List Members
I like the part about Fred "Dr. Death" Leuchter, the
designer of the US Prison system's execution
apparatus, as an expert defense witness who tested
purported execution "gas chambers" ON-SITE in
Auschwitz, Poland tesitified in a court of law under
oath and determined they had never been used to kill
anyone.
The other question I have is this. The war machine
runs on fuel. During a time of war for Germany, fuel
would be incredibly important. So why would the
Germans waste precious fuel to transport all the
prisioners to the camps if they intended to kill them?
Wouldn't a sharp bayonette be much cheaper?
Best Regards,
Peter G.

20th Anniversary of the Great Holocaust Trial
by Michael A. Hoffman II
Copyright 2005 by revisionisthistory.org
January 7, 2005 marks the 20th anniversary of what
came to be known throughout the world as "The Great
Holocaust Trial" thanks chiefly to the drive,
determination, courage and vision of one man, Ernst
Zundel, supported by those he inspired.
In 1985 Zundel was a German immigrant residing in
Toronto, Canada where he had built a highly successful
advertising and graphic arts business based in a
rambling Victorian mansion in the bohemian
"Cabbagetown" section of metropolitan Toronto.
Zundel viewed the "Six million" story as a form of
mental genocide against the German people; ostensibly
a noble tale of the epoch struggle for human rights
that in actuality was a form of devious hate
propaganda, leveling every conceivable blood libel at
the Germans and branding them with the Mark of Cain.
Having survived the Allied firebombing of his native
city of Pforzheim as a child, Zundel was well familiar
with the war crimes of the hypocritical Allies and he
made it his life's work to clear the name of his own
people.
For this commendable enterprise, Zundel had his
mailing privileges revoked by the Canadian government
in 1983, forcing him to open a post office box in
Buffalo, New York and send a messenger to commute
hundreds of miles just to receive mail. In 1985 he was
charged under an archaic "False News" provision of an
old Edwardian municipal code, for having published the
pamphlet "Did Six Million Really Die?" He faced two
years in prison if convicted.
In reponse Zundel put the so-called "Holocaust" itself
on trial, hiring a little-known maverick lawyer from
British Columbia, Douglas Christie, to argue his case
before Judge Hugh Locke. Seated next to Christie was
the learned revisionist historian Prof. Robert
Faurisson of France, who guided Christie's withering
cross-examination of a long train of "saintly
'Holocaust' survivors" offered by the "Crown."
Zundel's defense was initially regarded by the press
and public as preposterous. "How can anyone deny the
'Holocaust?" was the incredulous response to the news
that Zundel would vigorously defend himself and the
free speech rights of all Canadians. The trial was
expected to be a quick and ignominious rout of Zundel
and his motley crew.
How wrong the odds-makers were! For the first time in
history the holy "survivors" finally had to submit
their "testimony" to scrutiny, to the rules of
evidence and cross-examination, something that has
never happened before or since. Seated in the press
gallery, I watched as my colleagues of the fourth
estate grew ever more surprised and shocked at the
amazing admissions Christie and Faurisson elicited
from the "eyewitnesses" to the gas chambers. TV
reporters like Claud Adams and journalists from the
Toronto Star and Globe and Mail produced footage and
headlines that turned Canada upside down.
Canadian readers and viewers learned that there was no
scientific evidence for homicidal gas chambers, that
homicidal gassings (as opposed to the German use of
Zyklon B as a life-saving prophylactic against the
deadly typhus louse), were a rumor that the inmates
heard but never actually witnessed for
themselves--these were statements obtained by Mr.
Christie from the prosecution's own vaunted Auschwitz
eyewitnesses!
In March of 1985 Zundel was convicted by a cowardly
jury that had followed the prejudicial advisories of a
bent judge; but the conviction was reversed on appeal
and Zundel went to trial again in 1988, eventually
winning a Supreme Court decision for free speech in
Canada.
The 1988 trial is more well known in revisionist
circles. Zundel was famous by then and the appearance
of Fred "Dr. Death" Leuchter, the designer of the US
Prison system's execution apparatus, as an expert
defense witness who tested purported execution "gas
chambers" on-site in Auschwitz, Poland and determined
they had never been used to kill anyone, created an
international sensation.
Still, for this reporter, the 1985 trial has the
greatest significance. Having been badly burned the
first time around (Dr. Raul Hilberg, the preeminent
historian of the Six Million admitted on the witness
stand in the first trial that there was no scientific
evidence for gassings--"I'm at a loss" he said when
asked to produce evidence), the Judaic establishment
kept all their infallible "Holocaust" saints and
martyrs away from the second trial. Yet it is upon the
word of these supposedly unimpeachable "eyewitnesses"
that the tale hangs and it was in the first trial that
they were hanged by their own lies and misprision. It
was poetic justice that this was
done in the full glare of the publicity they had
marshaled in the expectation of witnessing Zundel's
disgrace.
20 years ago today I left Ithaca, New York for
Toronto, arriving on a snowy Sunday evening at
Zundelhaus, a place teeming with hope and buzzing with
activity. There I met many elderly veterans of the
German military, some of them driven almost insane
with grief and agony in the face of the
unconscionable--and heretofore largely
unchallenged--group libel that had been heaped upon
the German people in the wake of World War Two. Every
man and every woman among them was a noble person and
they looked to Ernst to lift the Jew-killer stigma
from off their weary and aged shoulders, and in
particular from the souls of their children and
grandchildren.
On January 7, 1985, this writer was privileged to walk
directly behind Zundel and Christie, through a
gauntlet of JDL terrorists and into the courthouse
where I would report the trial for eight weeks, first
in the pages of the Washington D.C. newspaper
"Spotlight," and later in a book published by the
Institute for Historical Review, "The Great Holocaust
Trial" (now out of print).
It is difficult to fathom that twenty years later
Ernst Zundel is completing his twenty-third month of
solitary confinement in Guantanamo north, a Canadian
jail in Rexdale, on a star chamber charge of being a
"terrorist," with key "evidence" against him presented
in secret, without the defendant or his lawyers
present or privy to any of it.
The pacifist who entered Canada because it had no
conscription law, the activist who was repeatedly
denounced as a reactionary and a wimp by neo-Nazi and
Aryan extremists because he opposed armed resistance
of any kind, now rots in a tiny cell without so much
as a pillow, a pen or a desk, purely for reasons of
Talmudic revenge of the most primitive and tribal
nature.
This is what the "war on terror" is all about: the
recrudescence of the prerogatives of dictatorship for
the sake of eliminating all those who dissent, as was
done to Cicero after he protested the destruction of
the Roman Republic and the tyrants who replaced it
with an empire, for which his hands and head were
nailed to the Senate podium. Our modern day Ceasars
however, have no such candor. They nail men like
Zundel in secrecy and darkness and call it human
rights and fighting terror.
But the Great Holocaust Trial was not fought in vain
and if there is a history of human rights worth
writing, Ernst Zundel will be on page one of any
authentic compendium. History teaches that you can't
kill ideas with prisons and gulags and that as long as
men like Zundel continue to keep their faith in the
power of the truth, others will come forward to raise
the banner. This is how our rights were gained in the
first place and will be secured in the future.
On January 7 light a candle, literally or in your
heart, for all the men and women throughout the
centuries who have given their lives for freedom,
among whom we number the unforgettable Mr. Zundel.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ernst Zundel was keelhauled to Germany by the
government of Canada after a star chamber proceeding.
He was immediately arrested upon arrival in Germany.
His "crime"? He has the "wrong" opinions! I hope the
Arabs and Muslims are watching this case and learning
that, when it comes to Judaism and Zionism, there is
no genuine free speech or democracy in the West. It is
all hypocrisy. Condoleeza Rice and George Bush are
happy to see Zundel go to prison for his opinions and
beliefs, yet they presume to lecture China and Iran
about "freedom." Don't believe these liars and fakers
for a minute!
