RE: Response from Ernst Zundel to your e-mail this morning
The current German State was created by the Allied military authorities
after the WWII defeat of National Socialist Germany as an instrument to
control the conquered Germans.
Therefore, control figures large - "freedom" and "democracy"
are only minor dressings. Thus, the Quisling states of the Allies were
allowed in East Germany, for instance, to suppress and outlaw not only
"Nazis" (because they were defeated militarily) but also neutralize
all Western-style democratic parties and movements and send its members
to Soviet-German Gulag camps.
The same policy held true in the Western Allied Quisling entity called
the Federal Republic of Germany, where Adenauer, the Oberquisling, chosen
to front the Allied control mechanism over the German people in the West,
forbade "Nazis" and "Communists" of all kinds and deprived
them of earning a livelihood in their trades or professions etc.
Thus the modern German state brought these "birth defects" with
it, and has been first a crippled child and has now grown to maturity a
crippled adult.
The German state does not want to have its sordid, illegitimate birth,
murky past and various godfathers examined, much less exposed. German intellectuals
and historians like Diwald, British historian Irving, Professor Nolte of
Freie Universitaet Berlin etc. have paid a heavy price for doing that -
by merely ". . . scratching the surface!"
Thus the modern German state has outlawed the critical examination of this
period of German history, because it would automatically and logically
lead to an exposing of what that state was and still is - and lead, logically
again, to a dissembling of hitherto "great" men of postwar German
history and its frail, tragically undemocratic rules and regulations.
The postwar West German elite is an endangered species and will suffer
the same fate as Erich Honnecker and his flunkies and "elite"
suffered after West Germany was allowed to gobble up East (Central) Germany
in 1989.
The West German authorities have chosen the disastrous path of repression
through draconian censorship, even outlawing research, outlawing political
and historical viewpoints on pain of huge fines and even prison for up
to five years. They are in the position of the Little Dutch Boy, trying
to plug the holes in the dike.
Their jackboot mentality forces them to legislate, not debate, so as to
incarcerate their opponents. This will not work. Prisons have always made
notoriously leaky containers for ideas.
So it will be this time.
Their attempted and failed censorship attempt of my web site, the Zundelsite,
was only the first step. They will try and devise other methods.
It will be in vain. The self-appointed censors like Rabbi Cooper of the
SimonWiesenthal Centre of Intolerance, as well as intolerant Christian
fanatics, will only partially and temporarily succeed in strangling the
free flow of ideas.
I believe a new age is dawning, and the German State censors and their
Jewish-Christian Allies represent yesterday. We represent the brave, new
and, yes! scary world of tomorrow.
The Germans can block the Zundelsite. They can fine and jail me and others
- as they have done. They can intimidate some intellectuals, as they have
done, but I believe we embody the essence of the will to be free which
is a primordial urge - equally as strong as our opponents' will to control.
The Internet is the new battle ground!
I am not afraid of this New Age of Truth. My detractors obviously are.
Why did they try to censor me? Actions speak louder than words.
Our brains are our weapons. Our tools are our computers and software. Our
detractors will be brooming back the incoming tide, while free men and
women of many races and nationalities will be busy creating a better world
- hopefully a world of unfettered freedom, held only in check by decency,
morality and personal responsibility.
