October 11, 1997

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

Ernst spent all of yesterday in cross-examination, flanked by his legal team, across the table from attorneys from the Justice Department and the Holocaust Promotion Lobby lawyers. The questions were mainly of a technical nature, and the real "Inquisition" will start on Monday and run all week long.

Below is an interesting parallel item which will be the subject of the Australian 15-19 December 1997 Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission hearing involving the Adelaide Institute website, similarly hauled before a "Human Rights" Commission for its Holocaust-challenging contents.

Please note the Soviet-style tactics: Politically incorrect people are treated as though their beliefs are a mental deficiency or aberration of sorts that need to be "corrected". Will psychiatric detention centers be next for those who don't tow the politically correct line?

Here is the telling document:

Jeremy Jones on behalf of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry -v- Dr Fredrick Toben on behalf of Adelaide Institute Enquiry under the Racial Discrimination Act 1975

(Cth) RELIEF SOUGHT BY THE COMPLAINANT

1. A declaration that the Respondent has breached Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975.

2. Order that the Respondent delete material identified as being in breach of the Racial Discrimination Act from the Adelaide Institute website on the Internet, and any other website published by the Respondent, where the offending material is presently accessible to members of the public.

3. Order restraining the Respondent from publishing or re-publishing the offending material or any other material the publication of which would contravene the Racial Discrimination Act.

4. Order that any website on the Internet which is or may hereafter be published by the Respondent permanently bear on its homepage the apology set out in Order 5 together with the following notation:

"Public Notice

Some of the material which has appeared on this website in the past has been found by the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission to be in contravention of the Racial Discrimination Act
and, in particular, those sections of the Act which prohibit incitement to racial hatred."

5. Order that the Respondent apologise to the Applicant in the following terms:

"To Mr Jeremy Jones
Executive Vice President
Executive Council of Australian Jewry
146 Darlinghurst Road
Darlinghurst NSW 2010

I hereby unreservedly and unconditionally apologise to you and to the Australian Jewish community for having published material inciting hatred against the Jewish people in contravention of the Racial Discrimination Act. I undertake that neither I nor any employee or agent of mine (actual or ostensible) will publish any such material in the future and that all such material which is presently published by me, or by any employee or agent of mine (actual or ostensible) in any print or electronic media (including the Internet) will forthwith be withdrawn from publication."

6. Order that the Respondent forthwith, and at his own expense, undertake a course of counselling by a conciliation officer of the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission as to the rights and responsibilities of the Respondent under the provision of the Racial Discrimination Act."

So, there it is. Not only will the "villain", should he be convicted (and what else do you expect?) apologize, he will apologize according to a script. Again, just as was practiced in the Soviet Union - the documents are sitting, waiting to be signed. And then, just as in Soviet Russia, the "convict" will be ordered to submit to a brainwash program of political realignment, and he will pay for it, while the exploiters will pocket the loot.

Just when you think that you have seen all the chutzpah you will ever need to see, there's more.

Thought for the Day:

Like child abuse, (to be accused of a hate crime) is an accusation that, once made, requires the accused to prove his innocence. The accuser does not have to prove a thing except politically correct outrage."
