FREE ERNST ZUNDEL RALLY!
MAY 2, 2003 -- 9:00 AM
- Niagara Falls Immigration and Refugee Board,
- 6080 Mcleod Road,
- Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada.
Ernst Zundel is a political prisoner being persecuted and
prosecuted for no crime other than expressing his views on the Second World
War. At the behest of the powerful and vindictive Holocaust Lobby, Mr.
Zundel is being held, without bail, in solitary confinement at the
Immigration Detention center in Thorold Ontario. He is being treated worse
than a common criminal, denied even the basic amenities provided to other
prisoners. An avid reader throughout his life, Mr. Zundel has not seen a
newspaper since his unceremonious arrest at his idyllic mountaintop home in
rural Tennessee nearly three months ago on highly suspicious charges.
In surreptitious, Star Chamber hearings, held behind closed
doors, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), relying on the
questionable testimony of highly-politicized government agents, concluded
that Mr. Zundel - an avowed pacifist - is a "security threat to
Canada." Mr. Zundel was not allowed to attend, or present evidence in
his own defense at these secretive proceedings. He has been denied the right
to face his accusers and their accusations.
Mr. Zundel came to Canada in 1958 and by any standards, was
the model immigrant and citizen, first putting himself through university in
Montreal and later becoming Canada's premiere graphic artist. His artistry
graced the covers of Canada's top national magazine and his paintings -
which invariably reflect his pacifist, nonviolent philosophy - adorn the
walls of some of the finest homes in the country. In his profession, he
provided meaningful employment to countless Canadians, both young and
not-so-young. Literally thousands of people - of every race, color and creed
- are proud to call Ernst Zundel their dear friend.
Ernst Zundel has never been convicted of any crime in
Canada. His only "crime" is a passionate defense of freedom of
speech - the right to defend his own German people against the libelous
accusations of a very vocal and powerful lobby. For his noble efforts, he
has been beaten, bombed, slandered and even thrown in jail by a shameful
system, all too willing to do the bidding of these special interest groups.
For over ten years, Ernst Zundel defended the rights of
Canadians to freedom of speech, even taking the battle to the Supreme Court
of Canada, where he ultimately won a victory for all Canadians in 1992, with
the abolition of the archaic, "False News" law.
Now Ernst Zundel needs YOUR help. Show the world that
his fight for the right of free expression was not in vain. Join
freedom-loving people in defense of our rapidly-eroding rights.
First they came for Ernst Zundel and I did not speak out
because I was not German.
Then they came for . . .
