At a time when millions across America now KNOW that there is very serious doubt about the so-called "Holocaust", what does America's First Lady do? She kisses up to it.
Yesterday, she went to visit Auschwitz. According to an ANA report, she
". . . called the 'holocaust' a 'cold, rational evil' and said 'The lessons of this place should never be forgotten . . .You can't even let up for a minute on your condemning of extremism and intolerance'. . ."
She also opined that Bosnian genocide and the church burnings here in the US prove that "intolerance" still plagues the world.
Speaking on the 'holocaust,' Mrs. Clinton, borrowing from Mr. Elie Wiesel style and substance, commented:
". . . I don't think anyone did enough. I don't think our country did enough when we began to get more and more reports [of the camps]. But I think it was difficult to do anything once the war started, other than to win the war. . . "
She also mentioned us. Of those who do not genuflect before the "Holocaust", she said the following:
". . . I find it unbelievable that there would be people today who would try to deny this terrible part of our human history. You have to be careful of people who misuse history and deny evidence and twist facts for their own ideological, political or personal purposes . . . "
Watch out for Ingrid, folks! You never know about my ideological, political or personal purposes. I barely know about them myself!
I can surmise about the First Lady's, however. In the upcoming election, she'll need the Special Interests vote as well as their deep pockets. Here in America, these troubled days, it it is no longer only "Whitewatergate"-as if that weren't bad enough!-but now "Filegate" as well!
Next page: Surfing the Net yesterday, I came across this German page. It apparently belongs to something like the American counterpart of the Censorship Busters that started mirroring the Zundelsite when the Wiesenthalers got out their big media guns.
I checked it out because I had received a rather stunning, very important press release in German calling for dissemination and mirroring of material that reported encroachment of Freedom of Speech in Germany (as if that were still possible . . .! ) I wrote to the e-mail given, asking for permission to post that press release in our German section.
Nope! came the answer. Not us!
In Germany, the Zündel taint is feared the way the Devil fears the Holy Water!
I know this hurt Ernst-that Germany is more lobotomized than any other place on earth when it comes to knowing just who pulls the strings to which the lackeys dance. It isn't Ernst Zündel, believe me!
At any rate, I still want you to go and visit that website, even if you do not understand a word of German. Scroll down a screen, and marvel at an image! I cannot think of anything more powerful than to place it below the quiet, blue ribbon-and what it came to signify!-when youngsters half our age born into cradles with computers across America said "NO" to the Simon Wiesenthal Center's attempt on encroachment on Freedom of Speech!
On an altogether different topic, I don't know how many of you have followed the Willem Ratte story in South Africa, but I am happy to report that, after a hunger strike of 57 days, this hero of his people, descendants of the valiant Boers, has been released from prison Saturday, June 29. I publicized his plight simply on the say-so of a friend in whom I trust, without knowing anything about what the real issues were and what goes on in that besieged and spiritually decimated country. (Can't we all guess, however?)
Here are a few details about Willem Ratte:
". . . The bail of Rand 1000 was paid by his friends and fellow Boer nation members. The full amount was paid over to the authorities in 1 Rand and 2 Rand coin pieces.
Willem Ratte is now treated in a clinic in Pretoria. The date for the appeal case hearing is set for 7 October.
He mentioned that the hunger strike was close to reaching the dangerous point of no return. He says he is glad and relieved the hunger strike is now over.
His wife was overjoyed to see him again for the first time after the day of his imprisonment. She sat next to him in the ambulance that picked him up at the Pretoria Central Prison. His eyes were filled with tears . . . "
Mine, too.
Ingrid
