"Ernst Zundel will broadcast his popular weekly German Language program, "Stimme der Freiheit," over a powerful Russian radio station based in Kaliningrad / Koenigsberg. The program can be heard loud and clear all over Europe on 1386 on the dial on the medium-wave or A.M. Band each Saturday evening from 21 - 22 hours Greenwich time. We ask for your support. Ernst Zundel, 206 Carlton Street, Toronto, Ont. Kanada M5A 2L1"
And, for good measure, in German:
"Zundel funkt jetzt jeden Samstag Abend von 21 bis 22 Uhr in deutscher Sprache auf der Mittelwelle 1386 aus Kaliningrad/Koenigsberg. Das Programm kann ueber ganz Europa von jedem Radio klar und deutlich empfangen werden. Ein Test-Programm wurde am 12. Oktober '96 bereits ausgestrahlt. Wir bitten um Ihre Spende, um die Sendungen aufrecht erhalten zu koennen. Ernst Zundel, 206 Carlton Street, Toronto, Ont. Kanada M5A 2L1"
Imagine! A so-called "democratic" country has to rely for its
Truth Information on a man, still sorely besieged in Canada, to get its
news from Russia - as though it were at war!
IT IS AT WAR. The spirit of light is at war with the spirit of darkness.
Make no mistake about that.
The very first time I met Ernst he said to me, speaking of the True World
Order of his dreams: "It will be so brilliant our eyes may not be able
at first to look at it directly." He said we were like cave creatures
- people who had been kept in dark dungeons for half a century who would
find themselves all of a sudden exposed to bright sunshine. It would at
first hurt the mind and the soul, for decades manacled to managed information
- but what glory!
We are living in truly historical times. I constantly look at my life and
say to myself: "How much of what is coming will I get to experience?"
Here is a letter from a German woman - not yet in our camp - describing
what it feels like to be cut off from Truth Information censored by alien
interests:
"The grandparents used to tell us kids stories about times in Germany when it was strictly forbidden to listen to BBC radio news. Our grandparents hid their radio in the basement of their house and only dared to turn it on with low volume. The family sat closely around the radio and received illegal British broadcast about battles and political information during World War II.
The grandchildren could hardly believe those radio stories. We were too young to understand the full meaning of the story and its context. But from our point of view we understood that our grandparents hated censorship.
Today I am a parent myself and I censor my little daughter's TV consumption in order to protect her from nightmares and square eyes caused by watching telly all too intensely. I am responsible for my daughter who is too young to make her own decisions.
The German Federal Prosecutor is not my father and I am not a child anymore. In order to prevent me from receiving information on Internet which is illegal in Germany, the Federal prosecutor is trying to press Internet providers to keep that information out of my reach.
In August 1996, the German Federal Prosecutor wrote to German Internet providers and on-line services telling them that they could possibly be charged with aiding and abetting persons who are currently the subject of a preliminary inquiry by the German Federal Prosecutor due to an article published in a magazine which offended German anti-terrorism laws.
It is practically impossible to filter the flow of data in order to keep specific WWW pages which are stored on WWW sites in other countries outside of the German state territory when Germans are allowed to contact these countries by phone for example - unless the German government decided upon massive censorship measurements which would be not according to German Laws as they are today. . .
Despite the pleasant fact that censorship is impossible, the actions taken by the German Federal Prosecutor and German Internet Providers should not be left uncommented. . .
Contemporary Germany wants to participate in the European Community as a civilized and liberal member state and it is not at all my intention to parallelize today's situation with the Nazi times. But do you understand that I - after receiving the news about this censorship attempt - was reminded of childhood stories told to me by my grandparents?"
This letter was, of course, not written for people like us. In fact,
I doubt it would have been written for us when, just a few weeks ago, eight
Zundelsite Holocaust debunking documents were X-rated to keep them from
being read in Germany.
But the principle is still the same; and it is sublime irony that it is
Zundel who is beaming Truth Information INTO Germany while freedom of speech
inside his native country gets tossed to the four winds.
