There are going to be protest demonstrations tomorrow in two
West Coast cities in front of Canadian Consulates to demand the release of
Ernst Zundel from illegal Canadian imprisonment. If it is possible for you
to join, please do. If you can't join, please spread the word.
This summer, Zundel protests are planned in front of
Canadian Embassies and Consulates all over the world - and very likely also
in front of Amnesty International Headquarters for its refusal to live up to
its mandate to come to the aid of all persecuted dissidents - even
dissidents who are questioning what passes as the so-called
"Holocaust". Decent, responsible people in many
"democratic" countries are facing brutal arrests and suffering
inhuman incarceration - for merely demanding Truth in History and insisting
on their right to speak and write freely!
Ernst Zundel is only one of them - but he is high-profile.
He has an impeccable track record of ethical conduct. He is known for his
awesome tenacity in speaking the truth as he knows it - in the face of all
the money and media power of his foes.
In decades of responsible activist work, Ernst Zundel has
earned the respect of his friends and supporters - and people are going to
notice.
FREE ERNST ZUNDEL!
Join us Thursday, May 22, in Los Angeles and Seattle
For three months now, Ernst Zundel has been held in Canada
as a political prisoner and prisoner of conscience.
Since Feb. 19, Canadian authorities have been holding the
64-year-old German-born publisher and civil rights activist in solitary
confinement on the pretext that he is a threat to national security.
In fact, there is absolutely no basis for this claim.
Zundel's life is an open book. He is a pacifist with no record of
violence. During the 40 years he lived in Canada, he was never convicted
of a crime.
Ernst Zundel is behind bars solely because of his views,
and especially his dissident views about the “Holocaust."
Even though he is married to an American citizen, he was
arrested at his home in Tennessee on Feb. 5 and, two weeks later, deported
to Canada. His arrest and detention have generated wide media attention in
Canada. At least two Canadian newspapers have editorially protested his
imprisonment.
JOIN US IN VOICING OUR OUTRAGE AT THIS INJUSTICE, AND
TO DEMAND ZUNDEL'S IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Thursday, May 22, at Noon
-- In downtown Los Angeles, outside the Canadian
Consulate at 550 South Hope Street (near Sixth and Flower streets), just
beside the Los Angeles Public Library, and
-- In Seattle, outside the Canadian Consulate, at the
Plaza 600 Building, Sixth Avenue and Stewart Street.
We'll be calling for Zundel's release, and we'll deliver a
formal protest to the Consulate.
