Yesterday we had trouble again with our website. I noticed that David Irving's and some other websites were down as well. Coincidence?
Anyway, I am trying again and am sending you yesterday's missive:

Second official statement of Verite et Justice on the prohibition of the planned Beirut conference on Revisionism and Zionism
After chosing the Lebanese capital as the site of the planned international conference on Revisionism and Zionism, Verite et Justice entrusted a well-known and experienced agency in Beirut with the practical organizational tasks. This agency has often successfully helped preparing international conferences. It was extensively briefed about the strictly academic and peaceful nature of the planned meeting. Only well-known personalities with a proven academic record were chosen as speakers. Their speeches would have covered an impressive variety of subjects and reflected the most recent state of knowledge about the respective issues.
In addition to the speakers, a considerable number of guests from numerous countries were planning to attend the Beirut conference. All of them are devoted to free and scientific historical research. Not one of them has ever advocated, much less used violence.
Having been thoroughly briefed about all the details of the planned meeting, the Beirut agency assured us that no problems whatsoever were likely to arise. International conferences are taking place at Beirut on an almost weekly basis, as Lebanon is renowned for its liberal atmosphere and its respect for freedom of speech.
Some well-known Jewish organizations, which hypocritically claim to fight "racism" and "bigotry" although they represent the most racist and bigotted creatures on earth, urged the US government to exert pressure on Lebanon in order to obtain the prohibition of the conference. To its discredit, the US administration acceeded to this impertinent demand and threatened Lebanon with economic sanctions if it allowed the meeting to take place. This crude blackmail is all the more revolting as Revisionist conferences have been held in the United States numerous times without any government interference, and as Holocaust Revisionism is not subject to any legal repression in America. Why does the American government, which pretends to be defending freedom of speech all over the world, apply such a double standard?
Shortly after the announcement of the Beirut conference on the Internet, the Zionist bigots unleashed a hateful and hysterical smear campaign against the organizers. Their reaction showed once more how deadly afraid these people are of the revisionist arguments. If these arguments were refutable, the Zionists and their stooges could easily expose their weakness in a public discussion. Such a public discussion has been proposed by the revisionists many times - in vain.
Thus, the Beirut conference was prevented from taking place by brute force, which is evidently the only weapon of our adversaries. At the beginning of the third millenium, which is generally expected to bring an even broader exchange of and access to information, some people are still trying to supress information about vital issues and to stifle any free debate on problems which concern us all. Their methods and mentality can't but remind us of the darkest periods of history.
Events like the cancellation of the Beirut conference drastically demonstrate that a small group of people is manipulating public opinion and depriving the masses of their legitime right to know. Who are these people? The answer is obvious: They are the Zionists who, thanks to their iron grip on the media of the West, have succeeded for more than five decades in imposing their distortions of history on the world. Newspapers, books, films, even the theatre and the universities - all these institutions are to a large extent controlled by them. This has enabled them to brain-wash the masses who have unknowingly accepted many Zionist legends and downright lies as undisputable historical facts. The so- called "Holocaust" is but the most extreme example.
While we were by no means astonished by the Zionist smear campaign against revisionism in general and the Beirut conference in particular, we were frankly surprised by the fact that several Arab intellectuals, who claim to oppose Zionism, have signed a petition against the scheduled meeting, accusing the organizers of "racism" and "falsification of history". What do these people know about revisionism? Which revisionist books have they read? Have they read Dissecting the Holocaust (Theses and Dissertations Press, Alabama/USA 2000), the most important revisionist work which extensively discusses all important aspects of the "Holocaust" story? Are they familiar with the historical, demographic and above all technical arguments of the revisionists? Are they aware of the fact that no revisionist has ever denied the persecution and the sufferings of the Jews during the Second World War, nor the fact that large numbers of Jews and non-Jews died in the National Socialist Concentration Camps?
If the answer to all these questions is yes, and if the persons who signed the petition against us think that our arguments are wrong, we wonder why they have not pointed out our mistakes. After all, if you accuse somebody of "falsifying history", you should be able to prove this accusation. But if the answer is no, and if they do not know revisionism, we can't but conclude that these Arabs are just parroting the Zionist party line for purely opportunistic reasons. In this case, their vociferous opposition to Zionism is just not credible. Anybody who claims to be anti-Zionist by deliberately condoning the Zionist falsification of history, such as the "six million" and the "gas chambers", is simply a hypocrite.
We can't but conclude that the Arab intellectuals who signed the petition against the Beirut conference have done an appalingly bad service to the Palestinian people which is oppressed by the Zionist occupiers. The victims of Zionist racism should be the last ones to use the ritual accusation of "racism" against people who are subject to all kind of persecutions - prison terms, fines, social ostracism, the ruin of their professional carreers - for exposing the Zionist lies. If you read the revisionist books and articles, you realize that they deal with technical, chemical, documentary and demographic questions. Now, what does all this have to do with "racism"? The "racism" club simply masks the inability of our opponents to respond to our arguments.
We hereby urge the signers of the resolution to reconsider their position. If they are seriously interested in historical revisionism, we offer them a constructive debate about the revisionist arguments.
Vérité & Justice sincerely thanks its friends and sponsors for the support they have given us. Despite the Beirut setback, we are confident that truth will prevail. Truth will liberate whole nations, among them the Palestinians who had their land stolen by Zionist usurpers and millions of whom were turned into refugees under the pretext of the alleged Holocaust.

Thought for the Day:
"Reconciliation is an absolutely meaningless concept. The heirs of the Jew-murdering National Socialist State do not deserve anything other than to assume the heavy historical responsibility, and that is for generations and for ever!"
