Even though communication between me and
Ernst is now severely restricted, I can give you the exact dates of when
Ernst’s trial will start. For now, five days have been reserved in
November. They are:
Tuesday, 8 November 2005 – 9:00 A.M.
Wednesday, 9 November 2005 – 9:00 A.M.
Tuesday, 15 November 2005 – 9:00 A.M.
Wednesday, 16 November 2005 – 9:00 A.M.
Thursday, 24 November 2005 – 9:00 A.M.
Just a few
days ago, I received the text of these charges in German – 14 points. Those
who are able to read these charges with an open mind, will know they are an
indictment not against Ernst Zundel who speaks the truth as he found it and
knows it, but against a country that prides itself on being a “democracy”.
1.
The bulk of the charges pertains to documents that have been posted
on the Zundelsite for some 8 years, translated into several languages. They
are introductory essays ( “Holocaust 101” ) to Holocaust Revisionism and
come in eight languages. You can read for yourself what they say if you are
so inclined. (

2.
A few of Ernst’s “Germania” letters sent to his world-wide network of
friends and supporters are also found politically objectionable. These
letters were legal in Canada, where most of them were written, thanks to the
Supreme Court ruling in 1992 giving Ernst the right to say what he believes
to be the truth, and they are legal in the United States, based on the First
Amentment to the Constitution. They were NOT written in Germany, where
draconian laws are locked in place that serve the State of Israel and not
the German people.
I don’t know anything
beyond this document outlining Ernst’s political “sins”. I will keep you
updated to the extent that I hope to be updated on developments.
I should also add that
an arrest warrant in Germany has been sworn out against me as well, which
means that I will not be able to attend the trial in Germany.
So we are gearing up for
yet another round. It will be yet another burden on my time and drain on
our resources. It is also an important step forward.
Stand by for a Zundel
Holocaust Trial # 3, to be fought on the soil of Germany.

I conclude
with a few comments from Ernst on this upcoming trial, gleaned from various
letters to me.
I
have had no more mail since I was notified that my case has been taken over
by the Landgericht, which as first order of business decided to
restrict my incoming and my outgoing mail by what amounts to s 90%
reduction. This allowed me to go through every document (I assume!) that
the government is marshalling against me. Since I am still uncertain what I
am allowed to say about things, let me be general in comments:
Remember how useful court cases have been
in the past – for instance, when in 1981 during the postal hearing I got to
see the letter of Simon Wiesenthal, which started all these years of
persecution? Well, this time we hit the Motherlode, and Bruce [our
immigration attorney who handles our suit against the U.S. government] will
be able to add a few names to the depositions.
I found it a very painful process because
I am tired of the subject, but it seems my fate is that I have to go through
this rigmarole (sp?) one more time. With hard work we will produce a
shocking documentation, and that will be useful.
I was up at 4:30 a.m., and I have been
studying and preparing for the trial and had to relive my life and my
struggle, almost as if in a film – and, kiddo, was it one steady grind! I
am now amazed and in awe of myself that, like a sleepwalker, I walked
through the minefields of my enemies! I now have ample, ample confirmation
of the accuracy of my intuition!
Remember when I used to be “soul-upset”,
when I used to think there was something wrong with my kids? It was the
you-know-whats, scheming and meeting and interviewing people. We suspected
all along – except it is worse! But we were right on the money most of the
time!
I also read and am astonished at the
millions of words spoken, written, and typed – alone the typing was heroic.
I also note with sadness how many of our friends have fallen by the wayside,
now very elderly. And many, many died.
The whole exercise is like a standing on
one of those Tribünen, and instead of troops marching past, it is
one’s life passing by in front of me for review. When I see the superhuman
effort in the face of such unmitigated callousness and unfairness, I can
only conclude that some extraordinary dynamism made me sustain all of this.
I am going through those mountains and
mountains of documents and it’s an upsetting task because it shows a huge
amount of work by thousands of bureaucrats of all stripes who have been
officially confronted with the results of my work. Yet when you read their
comments and analyses, it is not the least reflected that it impacted on
their thinking and attitudes about Germany’s role. So we deny ourselves
what is called a normal life and happiness, while these people, whom we try
to shield and protect, attack us from behind without any appreciation our
work deserves. There has to be a way to break through this log jam.
There are shocking things going on!
What we are dealing with are very, very
complex issues, especially in Germany as it tried to pick itself up by its
own bootstraps out of incredible pulverization. It’s like trying to
reassemble the constantly changing little pieces of a kaleidoscope being
slowly turned, with its pieces tumbling and shifting. Compare these pieces
to the forces in society, all climbing over each other, all juggling
interests, wants, desires, personal ambitions, greed, corruption, all the
powers of lobbies, open and hidden, the secret societies, cults and sects
which have been around for hundreds, maybe thousands of years!
The last century was the culmination and
the beginning of that never-ending process of “historification” where, as
soon as something is spoken or written, it’s like a bullet out of a rifle
barrel on its own trajectory – gone, unleashed, aimed or randomly heading
somewhere. Seeing in these many, many thousands of pages how thoughts and
words impact on people’s lives, on societies’ functioning - that is one hell
of a realization!
In the end, the overall thoughts,
concepts and goals are lost in the minutiae of bureaucrats filling in
papers, of the statements of snitches and paid agents, of little petty
thieves giving false testimonies which then careen through history’s
corridors, hitting this and that. You add to that the vendettas of
minorities, pyramid climbers in society’s bureaucracies, in the spy
services, in the legal systems, the police forces, the corridors of power,
elected and unelected. Ingrid, add to that the betrayals of friends and of
wives, jilted girl friends, of revenge being extracted for imagined hurts
never inflicted, yet treated as if real!
What unfolds before one’s eyes is
psychohistory, a drama with constantly changing actors and storylines and
constantly changing stage sets, only part of which are visible. The cranes,
wires, pulleys, carpenters, painters behind the scenes are invisible, but
very, very real to the unfolding of the play, which is unfolding history.
The study of these documents have made me
realize that – with sledge-hammer-like impact!
If all this sounds weird to you, sitting
on our balcony, looking down our beautiful valley, I can understand you
might shake your head and maybe say, “What on earth is Ernst talking
about?” Well, it is that I am at the center of these unleashed,
countervailing forces – pushing, shoving, climbing over each other, tugging,
pulling me this way and that.
I am punch-drunk [with fatigue] and must
end the letter. I will continue it tomorrow morning 5 a.m.
Those are the words of the world’s
best-known political prisoner, my husband and your friend. Since Ernst is
prevented from giving me specifics, I cannot give you specifics, but a
little bird has told me we can expect a few surprises. Please stay with me
–you and I have center stage, and it could well be that the last round has
begun!
To my friends, a big thank you, straight
from the heart! To our enemies: Don’t count us out! To the rest of the
world: No surrender!
Ingrid
Zündel
