August 5, 2018 marks the one year anniversary of Ernst Zündel’s
passing. He was essentially kidnapped from the U.S. and forced to remain in Germany. His wife, Ingrid Rimland,
was unable to leave the U.S. to be with him. She risked jail time in Germany despite having no previous criminal convictions. His crime? Ernst Zündel was deemed a “security threat.”
Not because he was ever violent or ever incited violence, but because he created a legal precedent in which: For the first time ever, “Holocaust” survivors
and “Holocaust” historians were closely and critically questioned under oath about their claims and views. Few Canadians realize that Zündel did them “a
favor by wiping off the books [the] disgraceful False News laws” strangling free-speech.
What They Do Not Tell You About The Life And Work Of Ernst Zündel An adapted extract from Revisionists. com. Ernst Zündel (1939-2017)
was a German-born publisher, author and civil rights activist, who emigrated to Canada at the age of 19. He became a successful
graphic artist, with his work appearing, for example, on the front cover of Canada’s national news magazine, Maclean’s.
Setting aside his thriving career, he dedicated himself to the great task, as he saw it, of redeeming the sullied reputation
of his fellow Germans. For seven years he
was held behind bars, first in Canada and then in Germany, solely for the peaceful expression of non-conformist views. For
some time he was the most prominent political prisoner in the western world.
Zündel was an outgoing, good-humored man who was blessed with a rare combination of unflagging optimism
and practical ability. He was perhaps best known as the defiant defendant in the much-publicized “Holocaust Trials”
of 1985 and 1988. He was brought to court in Toronto on a charge of “publishing false news,” and specifically
for publishing a reprint edition of a booklet entitled Did Six Million Really Die? Zündel’s two lengthy trials were something close to full scale debates on
the Holocaust issue. For the first time
ever, “Holocaust” survivors and “Holocaust” historians were closely and critically questioned under
oath about their claims and views. To wage
the legal battle that was forced upon him, he brought together an impressive international team of researchers, legal specialists,
scholars, and many others. From numerous libraries and archives in North America and Europe, this group assembled at the
“Zündelhaus” in Toronto one of the most extensive collections of evidence anywhere on this chapter of history. Among those who testified on Zündel’s behalf in the trials were
Robert Faurisson, David Irving, Mark Weber, William Lindsey, Udo Walendy, and Bradley Smith. As a result of the two trials,
an enormous quantity of evidence and testimony challenging the prevailing Holocaust narrative was presented to the court
and thereby was made part of the permanent public record. Perhaps the most important evidence was the historic testimony
of American gas chamber expert Fred Leuchter concerning his on-site forensic examination of the alleged extermination gas
chambers in Poland. Zündel was found
guilty in the 1985 trial, but the verdict was set aside by the provincial appeals court. It ruled that the judge in that
trial had, among other things, given improper instructions to the jury, and had improperly excluded defense evidence. At
the conclusion of the second Zündel trial in May 1988, a jury declared him guilty. A few days later, he was sentenced
to nine months imprisonment.
French scholar Robert
Faurisson wrote at the time: “Zündel
may once again go to prison for his research and beliefs or be threatened with deportation. All this is possible. Anything
may happen when there is an intellectual crisis and a realignment of historical concepts of such a dimension. Revisionism
is the great intellectual adventure of the end of this century. Whatever happens, Ernst Zündel is already the victor.” On appeal, Canada’s Supreme Court threw out the 1988 conviction,
declaring on August 27, 1992, that the archaic “false news” law under which Zündel had been tried and convicted
was a violation of the country’s Charter of Rights. This was more than a personal vindication by Canada’s highest
court; Ernst Zündel secured an important victory for the rights of all Canadians. His next great legal battle was fought before the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal [which
operates outside of normal legal standards] in Toronto. The charges, instigated by Jewish groups, accused Zündel of
promoting “hatred or contempt” against Jews through the “Zündelsite” website operated by Ingrid
Rimland from the United States. In this legal action, as the Tribunal’s presiding Commissioner declared, the truth
or validity of the supposedly “hateful” items was not a consideration. (Ultimately the Tribunal declared the
“Zündelsite” to be unlawful, but because it is based in the U.S., the ruling has been unenforceable). During the 42 years he lived in Canada (1958-2000), Ernst Zündel was
never convicted of a crime. He was, however, repeatedly a victim of violence and hate. He survived three assassination attempts,
including by arson and pipe bomb. Even Irv Rubin, the American Jewish Defence League leader was caught breaking into Zündel’s
home with a member of the “Jewish Armed Resistance Movement” who had previously claimed responsibility for one
of the arson attacks. He also endured years of legal harassment and repeated imprisonment. After more than four decades in Canada, including a failed effort to acquire Canadian
citizenship, Zündel moved to the United States. On February 5, 2003, Ernst Zündel was arrested at home in the
mountain region of eastern Tennessee. U.S. authorities seized him on the pretext that he had violated immigration regulations,
or had missed an interview date with U.S. immigration authorities, even though he had entered the U.S. legally, was married
to Ingrid Rimland, an American citizen, had no criminal record, and was acting diligently, and in full accord with the law,
to secure status as a permanent legal resident. After
being held for two weeks, he was deported to Canada. For two years -- from mid-February 2003 to March 1, 2005 -- he was
held in solitary confinement in the Toronto West Detention Centre as a supposed threat to national security. His arrest and detention generated
wide media attention. A few Canadian newspapers and several independent analysts acknowledged the injustice of his incarceration.
The country’s most prestigious daily, the Toronto Globe and Mail, affirmed in an editorial (“Zündel
doesn’t warrant a security certificate,” March 6, 2004) that he posed no risk to people or property, and that
he was being held unjustly on a bogus “guilt by association” pretext.
“He has never been charged with a violent crime and does not urge others to commit violence,”
the editorial noted. “The real danger to Canadians,” it concluded, comes not from individuals like Zündel,
“but from a government that casually discards their most precious rights.” In another editorial (“The Zündel Case,” Oct. 23, 2004) the influential
paper called Canada’s treatment of Zündel an “abuse of the secret-trial legislation.” Bill Dunphy, a veteran investigative journalist and editor for the daily Hamilton
Spectator, also protested the injustice. He spent six years probing Canada’s “white supremacist” movement,
and got to know Zündel well. Although he has no sympathy for Zündel's views, in a hard-hitting column (Hamilton
Spectator, May 14, 2003) he told readers: “Our government has
seized and branded Ernst Zündel, stripped him of his human rights, tried him in secret and found him wanting, and will
now hand him over to a foreign government anxious to throw him in jail … “ ... Zündel - who did this country a favor by wiping off the books our
disgraceful False News laws - has never once been convicted of a criminal offense in this country, never once found to have
violated the hate crime laws that rest snugly around the throat of free expression in this country. “Calculating correctly that there was no political cost, no ‘down side’
to slipping on the jackboots to kick a reviled old man out of our country, our government cobbled together their best insults
and innuendo, and Lord knows what secret ‘evidence,’ and branded Ernst Zündel a threat to national security. “I know this man, his local and international contacts and I know
this movement. And after reading the 58-page ‘unclassified’ summary of the government’s case, I can assure
you there is no justice here. Their ‘evidence’ is riddled with errors and misinformation, hearsay and inflammatory
innuendo. Dead men walk again, and the shattered bits of shoddy secret networks long since collapsed under the weight of
their own ineptitude are made whole and menacing once again. It is a shameful piece of dishonest, unreliable tripe.” Zündel was held in Canada not because his views are unpopular, or
because he was a “security risk.” He was in prison because Jewish groups wanted him there, and because he promoted
views that the Jewish-Zionist lobby considers harmful to its interests.
This lobby was the decisive, critical factor in the decades-old campaign to silence him. The only sustained
and institutionalized effort in Canada to imprison Zündel came from this lobby, which includes the Simon Wiesenthal
Center, the Canadian Jewish Congress, the Canadian Holocaust Remembrance Association, and the League for Human Rights of
B’nai B’rith (Canada's counterpart to the U.S.-based “Anti-Defamation League”). On March 1, 2005, Zündel was deported to Germany, just as Jewish groups
had been demanding. Upon his arrival at Frankfurt airport, he was immediately arrested and taken to Mannheim prison to await
trial for the “thought crime” of “denying the Holocaust.”
A few months later the public prosecutor in Mannheim formally charged Zündel with inciting “hatred”
by having written or distributed texts that “approve, deny or play down” genocidal actions carried out by Germany’s
wartime regime, and which “denigrate the memory of the [Jewish] dead.” .... The 14 specific violations cited
by the court included postings on the U.S.-based “Zündelsite” website. The court thus upheld efforts by
German authorities to punish individuals for writings that are legal in the country where they are published. Jewish groups
quickly, and predictably, expressed approval of the verdict. Zündel was released from prison
on March 1, 2010 -- five years after his deportation to Germany, and three years after his conviction by a court in Mannheim.
Banned from returning to either Canada or the U.S., he went to his family home in Germany’s Black Forest region, where
he resided until his death. Unable to leave the U.S. and be with him, his wife Ingrid Rimland died two months later. The persecution continues. Top: Ursula Haverbeck jailed in Germany at the age of 89.
Bottom: Canadian Monika Schaefer held in a German prison six months without trial. She and her brother Alfred are now engaged
in a trial so bizarre she had to be escorted from the court room in handcuffs because Alfred defied the judge and took a
sip of water. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

...and the wicked silence. He gave his life so everyone could be free.
IN AN AGE OF TYRANNY, TRUTH IS NO LONGER AN ADEQUATE DEFENSE By John Kaminski I can’t think of another person who has had a larger impact on the way people think than Ernst Zündel. By standing up to the powers that be, and with a lot of help from his friends, he got the Supreme Court of Canada to eventually and begrudgingly validate the truth of what he was saying.
He got Holocaust Revisionism verified as a real subject with real questions about the historical record, and about the lies that continue to be told that utterly distort the truth of the world.
Of course, the truth never matters when it opposes the designs of the ever present Deep State, that notorious Jewish succubus which sucks the life out of all states and all people.
So far from being able to celebrate his landmark legal victory with his friends, instead Zündel suffered years of imprisonment (at least seven, that we know of) and a permanent ban on public speaking that lasted right up until a few days ago when a heart attack took him away forever.
And all this because they found him innocent!
The charges were all spurious, never clearly defined. He was initially charged with a hate crime for publishing a book by Richard Harwood (a pseudonym) titled “Did Six Million Really Die?” Two trials drew Revisionist experts from all over the world, and they demolished all the fictional Jewish claims. Somewhere along the line somebody blew up Zündel’s house.
(Since that time, officials at the Auschwitz site have lowered their supposed death toll from 4 million to 1.4 million, but using Jewish mathematics, commentators on the Jewish TV networks continue to use the 6 million figure.)
So after being illegally kidnapped in Tennessee, abused for two years in Canada (they never turned out the lights in his cell and made him write with a pencil stub), they shipped him to Germany for five more years in a prison system in which the truth is no defense because it has been declared irrelevant by law. Since World War II German courts have been totally polluted by perverted Jewish logic; so unjust are they today that Zündel’s lawyer Sylvia Stolz got five years for trying to defend him.
The wicked silence.
This is the great silence, the wicked silence, where the great powers declare what can be known and what cannot.
We are not allowed to know who our government murders surreptitiously, and we may not challenge the macabre Jewish death fantasies about World War II. Some 271,000 souls was the final camp death toll compiled by the Associated Press in 1946; some $28 billion in Holocaust reparations has been collected by Jewish judges as payment for suffering by survivors of the celebrated 6 million, which is a story the Jews have used to solicit sympathy for themselves since the late 1800s.
Even the grandchildren of Holocaust relatives can collect payments for the trauma they have experienced listening to their parents bewail the suffering they have endured (which when you think about it is the perfect Jewish occupation, making a lucrative career out of complaining about misery you have caused yourself and blamed on others).
Because the Jews essentially control the media worldwide (the Rothschilds even bought the Associated Press a few years back), opposition to Jewish lies is seldom reported. The most important issues of our lifetime — 9/11 and the World Wars — were all precipitated by high powered Jewish finagling, yet virtually no reporting on this can be found in any of the mainstream newspaper archives.
What happened to Zündel and hundreds of his philosophical compatriots trying to rescue the unfairly besmirched reputation of Germany is now happening in America in Oregon and Las Vegas as people who believed they could depend on their Constitution, after more than a year in abusive solitary confinement and only doublespeak from the court, now believe otherwise.
One innocent bystander has already cleverly plea bargained his way to a life sentence, and all the others involved in the Bundy standoff of 2014 or the Oregon standoff in 2016 have undergone something truly appropriate for our new American Gulag, criminal abuse by private prison guards and preposterous restrictions by a power mad judge. Observers of this kangaroo court insist the government’s objective is to never let these people out of jail at all.
The legal situation in America now more resembles the Jewish/Soviet totalitarian model of government than a Constitutional republic, where no appeal against the lawless decisions of a criminal government is possible.
Just as Zundel and his lawyer could not argue against his sentence without breaking more German laws, the corrupt judge in the Bundy trial permits no analysis of the government’s behavior at all.
The complete takeover of Western ranchlands by the Bureau of Land Management may not be mentioned. Remember, the BLM goons were stealing and killing Cliven Bundy’s cattle over a controversial decision by the government to nationalize rangeland on which the Bundy family cattle had grazed since the 1800s.
This question has not been resolved in the courts, but for merely pointing out that BLM’s arbitrary seizures of Western lands, the Bundys and many of their faithful supporters face life in prison from a court system definitely disinterested in the welfare of ordinary people who get in the way of government corruption.
American courts are becoming more like Germany every day. And everywhere in the world free speech is disappearing if you don’t adhere to the principles of the Jewish bankers who now inarguably control every person’s destiny.
Media mindlock.
What stands out to me in both the cases of Zündel and the Bundys and their friends is the apathetic response of the public to anyone who is at least making the attempt to stand up for the rights of all of us.
If they don’t see it on TV or read it in the newspapers it’s not really real to them. But worse than that, if they do see it on TV, or read it in the newspaper, they regard it as real. And this has given rise to practically every falsehood we believe in this life.
As the best known publicist for the truth of World War II, Zündel spent the last decade of his life unable to publicly address the issues most important to him. In his absence, however, the Revisionist message has sprung up like mushrooms all across the Internet and most especially on the Jewish-controlled Facebook.
The government that controls us now demands our complete silence about the crimes it has committed and the lies it has told.
Ultimately Ernst Zündel gave his life for our freedom. He refused to be cowed by Jewish lies, and returned the abuse he got from his captors with a stoic dignity that inspired his many followers. He paid a very high price for telling the truth.
No doubt authorities are pleased by the treatment Zündel received, and hope others will be dissuaded from emulating his behavior. Unfortunately for them, the opposite has happened. Inspired by Zündel’s example, the corps of truth tellers has expanded greatly and largely perfected its analysis of World War II, which proves there were no gas chambers, that Hitler only wanted peace, and that Roosevelt strong-armed all the countries in Europe in wiping out Germany once and forever, a goal which today appears to have been achieved.
In fact the real heart of darkness in World War II belonged to the Allies, in the torture of Dresden, the phony trials at Nuremberg and the premeditated starvation of Germans after the war. This is how the Jews rewarded the Germans for their hospitality. We Americans are feeling it now.
We all failed Ernst Zündel by not protesting with sufficient loudness his unjust treatment by corrupt authorities who are enriched by putting Jewish interests above the rest of humanity’s. This includes the entire U.S. Congress.
And we are failing now as men who stood up for the Constitution remain incarcerated under duress by corrupt politicians, held without bail for only protesting federal encroachment on private lands when no-bail is by law reserved only for murderers and traitors.
For the government to call these ranchers terrorists is truly the pot calling the kettle black.
All of us who believed what Ernst Zündel said and did is the real way honest human beings should act. Today this personality type is being systematically exterminated on all levels by a vicious campaign to replace us with a population totally unable to think critically and willing to go along with the crime if the salary is adequate.
However we slice it, as long as we fail to object to the abuse of others who are assaulted for trying to help the common good, we consign ourselves to a future governed by the wicked silence of people who are afraid to speak the truth, who have been intimidated for fear of earning the wrath of the people who rule them.
