ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny:

=46ebruary 14, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

=46rantic action is an understatement here at Tennessee Zundel_Haus. 
We have all kinds of legal moves going behind the scenes - as, I am 
sure, have our enemies.  The story is still breaking.

Here is what I have found out so far:

*     There is no arrest warrant.  None!  This is described as a 
"civil arrest."  Welcome to the New World Order!

*     Yesterday, against the greatest of all lawyerly odds, we 
managed to file a petition for "estraordinary relief" in Federal 
Court  - and did not even get a hearing.  A one-sentence judgment by 
Judge Jarvis:  Denied.

Now comes the weekend, and not much will get done.  In the meantime, 
there seems to have developed a three-way tug of war between the US., 
Germany and Canada - who will take him and inherit the publicity?  As 
far as I can tell, this sadistic brutality was planned to have taken 
place on the sly and handled very quietly, but the Internet saw to it 
that the story broke - and from there it was media mayhem all the 
way.  Some of my readers thought that I did make a mistake when I 
restricted my interviews only to alternate media.  Let me tell you I 
was right.  Far and away, the media write-ups and broadcasts HAD to 
get their info from the Zundelsite, and so far it has paid off in 
advertising millions.  For instance, NBC is said to have run it - I 
am not sure when, but somebody sent me a tape.  But I have never EVER 
seen such fair headline news reporting.  As soon as I come up from 
under, I will transcribe the script.  They showed the Zundelsite. 
They showed some very good titles.  They No yammering Holocaust 
survivor.  They even showed the Sinking Auschwitz cartoon.  This was 
prime news.  The only "negative" anchor comment was that I had 
gloated about all the attention I got.  This time, at least as far as 
the media is concerned - they didn't run us.  We sat back and forced 
them to be a bit more polite and civilized.  WE controlled what was 
put on the newscast by forcing them onto the Zundelsite.  It was a 
sweet revenge.

=46or instance, I refused an interview to the Globe and Mail, taking 
advantage of the opportunity to lecture the reporter on ethics - or, 
better, lack thereof, of Canadian media in general!   Here is that 
article:

Deportation to Germany threatens jailed Zundel

By COLIN FREEZE

CRIME REPORTER

Thursday, February 13, 2003 ? Print Edition, Page A9

Ernst Zundel could face deportation to Germany and that country's 
powerful antihate laws, after
  making use of North American civil liberties to deny the Holocaust 
for more than 20 years.

  Mr. Zundel, a German national with permanent-residency status in 
Canada, had long confounded
  this country's efforts to shut him up. But on Feb. 5, he was 
arrested at his Tennessee home by five  U.S. immigration agents who 
came with a deportation order alleging that he overstayed a visa.

  A spokesman for the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service said 
yesterday that it appears
  Mr. Zundel, who is in jail, will be sent to Germany soon.

  Temple Black, a New Orleans-based INS spokesman, said that unless 
Mr. Zundel files a refugee
  claim or uses some other legal tactic, he could be sent back within 
"a couple of weeks."

  "We have to wait for the paperwork from Germany; that's the way it 
normally works," Mr. Black
  said. "And then he'll be deported back to his home country."

  Canadian Jewish groups, which had been worried that the United 
States might try to send Mr.
  Zundel to Canada, are overjoyed at the prospect that their long-time 
adversary soon could be in
  Europe.

  Germany has strict criminal laws governing the spread of hate, 
meaning it would be very difficult
  for Mr. Zundel, a self-styled freedom-of-expression activist, to 
spread the message there that he has from North America.

  "In Germany, he will be literally out of business. That's something 
that will make most people
  breathe a sigh of relief," said Bernie Farber, spokesman for the 
Canadian Jewish Congress.

  During a visit to Munich in 1991, Mr. Zundel was charged with 
slander, offending the memory of
  the dead, inciting racial hatred, public incitement and possession 
of illegal Nazi symbols. He was
  fined about $30,000, though the amount was reduced to $9,000 on appeal.

  In 1996, German Internet-service providers were investigated by the 
government for providing
  access to Mr. Zundel's Toronto-based Web site.

  Mr. Zundel immigrated to Canada as a teenager in 1958. During the 
1980s, he became a familiar
  and notorious figure.

  Reporters would flock to Mr. Zundel's news conferences, where he 
would complain of persecution
  by the justice system -- while wearing hardhats or skull caps, or in 
blackface or strapped to a
  crucifix. His Toronto home became a library for the like-minded and 
the site of many protests,
  arrests and the occasional bombing.

  Mr. Zundel twice attempted to obtain Canadian citizenship. In the 
late 1980s he was convicted of
  the little-known law against spreading false news, but the decision 
was overturned by the Supreme Court of Canada.

  In the late 1990s, the issue was whether his Toronto Web site 
disseminated hate. Before losing
  that battle, Mr. Zundel ceased to defend himself and headed south. 
"It is perfectly clear to me that  the courts of Canada have simply 
decided that Ernst Zundel has got to go," he said at the time.

  About three years ago, he and his wife, Ingrid Rimland Zundel, moved 
to Sevierville, Tenn., a
  community of about 12,000 best known as the birthplace of country 
singer Dolly Parton. Using a
  Web site, the couple continued to make their views known.

  Shortly after moving there, Mr. Zundel said in an interview with The 
Globe and Mail that he was
  enjoying the U.S. South. "America, obviously, has a 225-year history 
of freedom of speech," he
  said at the time. "I mean, they mean it. None of the things that 
I've been dragged through the courts  for in Canada would have 
brought me near a courthouse in the United States."

  He added: "You have all kinds of intellectual people here in the 
United States who do and think
  and write and speak about the topics that I do, and have absolutely 
no problems with the
  authorities."

  His wife said yesterday that he is "doing okay under the circumstances."

  She would not provide the name of his lawyer.


=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

The condition in Blount County jail are inhuman.  I received a 
12-page, tightly written letter from Ernst describing some of his 
observations and thoughts, and I am getting brand new insights into 
the way Ernst Zundel thinks.  When things calm down, I have to do our 
newsletter, and since it is written in English, I will just take the 
personal comments out and have it translated into languages other 
than English to be used as the occasion warrants.  Those twelve pages 
are a masterpiece of political thought and what is in store for 
America in this powder keg right at the brink of war.

Just a brief glimpse of the man millions have been taught to hate:

[START]

Hi Ingrid,

The following is the reply I sent to the Mountain Press in response 
to their story of Feb. 12th. I hope they publish it -- your neighbors 
need to know what kind of man Ernst really is!

[START]

This is a very sad story.

The very idea that Mr. Zundel would deliberately break any law is 
simply preposterous. I've known him for over fifteen years and in all 
that time, I've never known him to do anything even remotely 
bordering on illegal.

I've never seen anyone so meticulously law-abiding and fair in his 
dealings with officialdom, business acquaintances and friends alike.

This is the man who scrupulously weighed his mail and if it was so 
much as a gram overweight, he would insist on paying the next level 
of postage. This is the man who always insisted on buying expensive, 
legally licensed copies of computer software rather than allowing 
friends to give him free copies on a "burned" CD.

This is the man who promptly paid all parking tickets, even 
out-of-state or out-of country. This is the man who, in spite of the 
hectic pressures in his own life, was never too busy to help his 
friends and neighbors in Toronto and around the world.

If Mr. Zundel says he was unaware of any hearing date that he missed, 
you can bet your bottom dollar that he never received any 
notification to attend any such hearing.

This gentle man's detention in a jail filled with criminals is an injustice
that sullies America The Beautiful.

[END]

This writer is right.  I have taken calls from many parts of the 
world, and I have heard grown, even old men weep.

A strange fate has now befallen us.  Just as I am finishing this 
story, our attorney gives me a call.  He has heard in Knoxville in a 
court house from a clerk that Ernst will be deported  Sunday.  I 
don't know if it is true.  Nobody told me anything.  My second 
one-hour visit since his arrest, I was told, has been re-scheduled 
for Monday.

Herewith I bid you good-bye on Valentine's Day 2003 - the very day 
when, 58 years ago, Dresden collapsed into ashes, holocausting 
hundreds of thousands of Germans, mainly civilians.  I once saw 
statistics somewhere.  I may be wrong, but I remember that, in the 
City of Dresden alone, the victims included tens of thousands of 
babies under the age 6.

Ernst Zundel was then a youngster then, not yet six years of age. 
He watched one of the many Allied terror bombings in his vicinity 
near Pforzheim, a city close to where he lived.  These bombing raids 
targeting civilians were done to force the Germans to their knees.  
Robert Lenski in his description of the Second Zundel Trial in 1988, 
described how Ernst  remembers a similar Holocaust, February 23-24, 
1945:

". . . which Zundel will never forget, when "golden" Pforzheim was 
firebombed and consumed by a red cyclone. Though the Zundels' house 
lay 12 miles distant, the sky above was brilliantly illuminated, and 
huge neighboring connifers bent toward the city center as if in a 
gale of wind. The Pforzheim fireball was sucking oxygen toward itself 
from throughout the surrounding countryside. Zundel, not yet six, 
watched mystified as millions of leaves and branches were sucked 
violently skyward, with a howl and a roar."

As the entire world knows by now, "Anne Frank left us a diary" - a 
manuscript which, incidentally, proved highly questionable as to its 
authenticy. It was partly written in a ball point pen - a gadget not 
in general use until 1953.

There were lots of bombing raids in the early and even late spring of 
1945 when the war was already technically lost. More than 5000 
casualties of the Allied "W=FCrzburg-Holocaust" were incinerated in one 
of the last massive bombing raids of World War II. These German 
victims' wartimes stories are not known.  They left no diaries. They 
perished in the flames of the devastating inferno of March 16, 1945 -
