ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny
Many of our "Free Zundel" supporters send me
copies of letters that Ernst wrote to them for our archives. Again and
again, I am astonished at the way Ernst can strip down a complex problem and
explain it in a simple sentence or two where it impacts on one's soul.
For instance, he was writing to a friend in Germany,
speaking of the European casualties of World War II, and he said,
paraphrased from German: "In the forests around Berlin, that's where
Europe lies buried - the European continent that should have been and would
have been." In German, he uses the sentence "Da liegt Europa
verscharrt." "Buried" does not do it justice - it does not
capture the enormous tragedy for the Old Continent, and now for America
also.
Likewise let's remember those who were our enemies and
should have been our brothers. What a heartbreak tragedy that they fell
victims to the lies!

IN FLANDERS FIELD
In Flanders field, the poppies grow Beneath the crosses
row on row that mark our place; and in the sky The lark still bravely
singing fly, Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn,
saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders field.
Take up our quarrel with the foe. To you, from failing
hands, we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high, If ye break faith with
us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders field.
-- Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae (1872-1918) Royal

If any question why we died Tell them, because our fathers
lied.

Help free Ernst Zundel, Prisoner of Conscience. His
prison sketches - now on-line and highly popular - help pay for his defence.
Take a look - and tell a friend.
