ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny:  Now more than ever!

May 10, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

This is going to be an incomplete ZGram because many details are 
still missing, but I thought I should get at least partial word out 
about what happened here these last few days, particularly yesterday:

First, it started with unbelievable interference with my telephone 
lines.  I had had difficulties off and on for the past few weeks in 
that "somebody" put blocks on my phone lines, preventing me from 
sending or receiving long distance calls.  Strangely enough, this 
happened intermittently - it wasn't as if a line remained solidly 
blocked. 

When Ernst tried to call collect from the Detention Center, a voice 
told him that "...at the request of the owner", no collect calls were 
allowed.  Naturally that was disconcerting to him because he did not 
know what might have happened to me - or why I might refuse to take 
his calls.

When a repairman finally came and tried to track the problem, he told 
me that in 31 years of working at Bell South, he had never 
encountered this type of a problem. He managed to solve it - one line 
at a time.  I was given a password for my own use and assured that 
nobody else could make changes on my lines. 

When my fax machine line again acted up and I called in to complain, 
I was not asked for my password - which means that this security 
arrangement meant zilch.

Then, email started bouncing, and the Zundelsite went dark - not for 
the first time either! 

At first, I paid little attention, only alerted my volunteer 
webmaster to see what the story was all about and asked him to try to 
revive it.  About a month ago, a server who had hosted my website for 
quite some time finally had  given in to enemy pressure and asked us 
to leave, but kindly gave us some time to find another home.  Vincent 
Breeding, a Southerner affiliated with the David Duke group in 
Louisiana, kindly offered free space on his server, and I gratefully 
accepted until we could regroup and decide what to do next - ideally, 
get our own server if and when funds permitted - but then I received 
a call from a fellow in Britain informing me that Vincent's server 
was likewise under attack.  Same for Don Black's Stormfront. 
Apparently, same for several others. 

Among our friends, it is no secret that I am known as a techno-dummy, 
so I will not even try to explain what came next and how many 
websites might be affected,  much less why:  Let me just say that it 
is my understanding that the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal - that 
obscene Marxist-flavored outfit that convicted Ernst for a website 
that is mine, has always been mine and will always be mine - served 
QWest with a 75 page order to "cease and desist" within 48 hours - or 
have QWest employees face arrest for contempt of court, should they 
ever travel to Canada!

Get this:  An administrative Canadian body with no enforcement powers 
of their own - recently described by Ernst as a "hick tribunal" that 
had ruled that historical truth not be allowed as a defense - is 
telling an American communications giant like QWest to "cease and 
desist" - or have its employees face arrest at the northern border! 
And the giant falls to his knees and gives in!

Now that ought to get people's attention!

If I can, I am going to stay out of this one!  This is for 
professional cyber experts, technical geeks and freedom fighters of 
all stripes to fight out.  In fact, this is for all freedom-loving 
Americans to decide if other countries can dictate to America what 
can or can't be on a website. 

Meanwhile, I suppose the Zundelsite will have to do some 
server-hopping, to put it graphically.  By myself, I don't have the 
knowledge or the financial means to set up an independent server, 
replete with competent technical assistance, having relied on 
volunteer help all these years.  If I am off the air now and then, 
you'll know why.

While all this was going on, there was Ernst's first Federal Court 
hearing taking place in Canada - allegedly regarding bail.  This was 
ironic, since he had already been served with a ministerial "security 
certificate"  calling him a "terrorist" liable to be deported. 
Bizarre!

"Why even bother with bail?" is what I asked myself yesterday all 
day.  Ernst's sister called from Germany and said that on the radio 
she had heard, first, that he had been *already* sent to Germany - 
and then, later in the day, that no, he *would* be sent to Germany. 
Any, any moment now! 

By late afternoon, I assumed that Ernst was probably already on the 
plane and did not have a chance to tell me. 

Meanwhile, my e-mails kept bouncing and bouncing.  People were very upset.

Then a stray e-mail appeared from a Canadian friend, like some ragged 
little orphan, telling me that the hearing was still going on, with 
Ernst behind a glass partition.  Security was extremely tight.  Media 
were crawling all over the place.  The room chosen for the hearing 
held only about 20 people, which meant that most of Ernst's 
supporters were not allowed in.  I knew that the Zundel Defense had 
planned a surprise for the opposition - namely to announce they were 
mounting a constitutional challenge to the Marxist-flavored CSIS Act 
- but I did not know whether it had yet occurred, and what the 
reaction would be. 

To say that yesterday was a day of mixed and tense emotion is 
understating it.  What Ernst will be doing with this constitutional 
challenge - to put it in my own words against my limited legal 
understanding - will be to challenge in the Supreme Court of Canada 
the very existence of Canada's Mini-Mossad.

Finally, around eight o'clock in the evening, Ernst called - his 
voice so hoarse that he could barely whisper.  He said Doug Christie, 
his attorney, thinks that with this newest legal initiative it is 
unlikely he will or even can be deported now.  It is, however, likely 
- in fact, Ernst believes it to be a foregone conclusion - that he 
won't be released in the foreseeable future under any circumstances. 
The media whores are already bleating like the sheep they are that 
"detention can be virtually unlimited." 

How Ernst plans to fight this kind of a battle out of a steel cage in 
maximum detention with merely the stump of a pencil - no pen, no 
eraser, no highlighter permitted! - is beyond me.  You see what I 
call the mark of a man?

The day was spent, according to Ernst, with attempts by his 
opposition to smear him with the broadest brush on earth - with guilt 
by association with anybody he might have ever met.  For 40 years, he 
was a publisher and broadcaster.  In decades of intense and dedicated 
activism on behalf of his vilified kin, the German World War II 
generation, he has met, interacted and corresponded with as well as 
interviewed thousands.  How can he be responsible for what these 
people - often names he can't even recall - may have ever said or 
done? 

By contrast, my chronology of why and how the arrest and deportation 
of February 5, 2003 in Tennessee came about, is simply shrugged off 
as "hearsay"!  Hearsay my foot!

This so-called "bail hearing" is to continue next Friday. 

A brand new and potentially gigantic chapter has now opened in this 
never-ending struggle for Freedom from Oppression - and guess who is 
still in the middle?
