 December 12. 2001

 Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

 I want to preface the IHR press release below by pointing out that it was
Irv Rubin and three other JDL hoodlums who showed up a few days after the
Zundel-Haus arson in Toronto in 1995 - supposedly "to take pictures"!

Apparently they assumed that no one was in the burned-out shell, and they
started climbing the fence.  They ran when they realized they were being
observed.  Ernst and his body guards started chasing them, followed by a
Toronto police car.

In no time at all, the  JDL hoodlums were apprehended - however, to no
one's great surprise, they were immediately let go.

 The story below made our day:

 JEWISH MILITANTS ARRESTED IN BOMB PLOT Irv Rubin and the JDL Have Long
Terrorist Record

 Two members of the Jewish Defense League, a militant Zionist group with a
long record of terrorist activities, have been arrested on suspicion that
they were preparing to blow up a Los Angeles mosque and the office of an
Arab-American congressman, federal authorities said today.

 Irv Rubin, 56, chairman of the Jewish Defense League, and Earl Krugel, 59,
another JDL activist, were jailed this morning at the federal Metropolitan
Detention Center in Los Angeles.

 The two were arrested Tuesday night after "explosive powder," the last
component of a bomb, was delivered to Krugel's residence, a federal
prosecutor said. Other bomb components were seized at Krugel's home.

 The two are believed to have been preparing to attack the King Fahd Mosque
in Los Angeles and the office of US Representative Darrell Issa
(R.-Calif.), a grandson of Lebanese immigrants.

 In 1985 the FBI identified the JDL as "the second most active terrorist
group in the United States," linking it to 37 terrorist attacks carried out
from 1977 to 1984. (Orange County Register, Nov. 19, 1985). Another federal
agency, the Department of Energy, similarly characterized the JDL in a 1986
report: "For more than a decade, the Jewish Defense League (JDL) has been
one of the most active terrorist groups in the United States." In 1987 the
FBI announced that Jewish extremist groups had carried out 24 terrorist
acts from 1981 through 1986, 17 of which were the work of the JDL.

 The Institute for Historical Review, a leading non-conformist history
research and publishing center based in southern California, was a target
of systematic JDL violence and harassment during the early 1980s. The
attacks included a drive-by shooting, three firebombings, vandalization of
IHR employee-owned vehicles, 22 slashings of tires of employee automobiles,
demonstrations outside the IHR office, and numerous telephone threats.

 This campaign culminated in a devastating arson attack on the Institute's
offices and warehouse in Torrance in the early morning hours of July 4,
1984. Damage was estimated at $400,000.

 Two days later, JDL leader Rubin showed up at the site of the gutted IHR
offices publicly to praise the fire-bombing. The JDL, he declared,
"wholeheartedly applauds the recent devastation of the offices of the
Institute for Historical Review." Denying any personal responsibility
himself, Rubin said that the arson had been carried out by a former JDL
activist named Larry Winston (Joel Cohen). No one was ever arrested in
connection with this crime.

 In February 1989, JDL intimidation forced the cancellation at two hotel
sites in southern California of a three-day IHR conference. The meeting was
successfully held at a makeshift alternate site, in spite of further
harassment by a handful of JDL thugs led by Rubin.

 The IHR trusts that Rubin and Krugel will be prosecuted to the full extent
of the law, especially during this time of heightened awareness of the
dangers of terrorism.

 Further information about Rubin and the JDL can be found in "The Zionist
Terror Network," a detailed IHR report that is posted on the IHR web site:
