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

June 4, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

Below is an important historical document that I will place on the 
Zundelsite and preserve in our archives for scholars in the future. 
It is Ernst's PRE-REMOVAL RISK ASSESSMENT, which is to pave the way 
for deportation to  Germany, if Zundel Enemies will get their way. 
Paul Fromm, his legal representative, will take these papers tomorrow 
to Canadian Immigration. 

I would like to add a few words of something that I hardly ever speak 
about in order not to hurt Ernst's feelings - but it needs to be said 
in this context:

Ernst was a post-war child, which means he had an absolutely 
atrocious childhood education - if "education" can even be claimed. 
There were 93 hungry, frozen kids in his classroom.  He had no shoes, 
no warm clothing, very little food.  Before he went to school and 
after he came home, as the oldest son he was required to help his 
mother fend for his siblings.  He was a sickly child, with many lung 
infections, that made him miss huge chunks of school days.  He has 
often told me what torture he had to endure to acquire what little 
formal education he could. 

He was only allowed eight years of grammar school - his parents were 
too poor to allow him to go on to higher education.  The language he 
spoke at home was the spoken-only Swabian dialect - so that, by the 
time he got to trade school as a 17-year-old in another city, he had 
to learn High German as a "foreign language."  Two years later he 
emigrated to Canada, where he immersed himself in English and French 
- his third and fourth language.  What I am saying is that Ernst is 
largely self-taught - and when it comes to spelling, punctuation and 
even syntax, such concepts have no meaning whatsoever for our brave 
Warrior for the Truth!

Worse yet, when I met him and tried to help him put his truly 
independent and incisive political thoughts and conclusions into 
proper English so as to make them understandable, I ran into the 
proverbial brick wall!  For some reason, he was extremely sensitive 
about the subject of his atrocious compositions that make perfect 
sense in his head and in his spoken language, and I found myself on 
the receiving end of many a furious lecture that he had done just 
fine without me, thank you! - and please not to mess with his output! 

Was it Sam Goldwyn that treated the world to his amazing dangling 
modifiers and such?  Think of EZ when you think of Sam Goldwyn! 

Now with me it was a bit different.  I can't sing, I can't paint, I 
can't swim - I cannot even cook!  But I love language - words in a 
proper sentence have profound life and meaning for me!  As a small 
child in World War II, I had the advantage of a grammarian 
mother/teacher who threatened to scalp me if I lost or misplaced as 
much as a comma!  Additionally, in mid-adulthood, with no more than 
three years' worth of grammar school, I managed to bully my way into 
an American University and threatened to grow roots there unless I 
was provided a formal education.  When I am tired, my poor eyesight 
gets in the way of some spelling, but I instinctively understand the 
power of words and try to apply the proper grammar principles that 
govern the power of thought. 

It has taken me years to convince Ernst that I really mean well - and 
that I do not lord it over him if I do a bit of nipping and tucking!

Now, to my horror,  I just realized this morning that one of the most 
important documents of his life will be submitted in the original 
Ernst Zundel Grammar Mode!  I don't  think there is still time to fix 
it - nor is there opportunity. 

I am letting you see, below, what I believe Ernst meant to say.

An iron rule of editing, a famous editor once told me, is merely to 
rearrange and cut - but not to add, unless additions are so marked. 
I cut and rearranged.  I haven't added anything unless so indicated 
in square brackets.

With that in mind, here is what is going to go into the historical record:

re:  PRRA INFO. CLIENT ID: 2218-7604. ERNST ZUNDEL

To Whom It May Concern:

I am the legal representative for Ernst Zundel and am hereby delivering
his Pre-Removal Risk Assessment which he has prepared under very difficiult
conditions in segregation, without pens, photocopy access, or highlighters
in the Metro West Detention Centre. His only writing instrument has been a
stub of pencil. This deprivation has curtailed his ability to present a
full and professional case.

	I have had his pencil-written text transcribed for easier 
reading. I have
included the pencil-written original.

	This is being presented under protest in light of the degradation and
deprivation he has suffered which have adversely impacted his ability to
fully present his case.

							Sincerely yours,


							Paul Fromm

RE: Preremoval risk assessment. 

To Whom It May Concern:

Friends filed the first set PRRA forms, filled out by me in Niagara Falls,
by personal delivery well within the required deadline. 

With this letter, you will receive a second envelope of commented [on] and
highlighted documents, prepared by me in my jail cell at best I could. 

We are not allowed Post-It-Notes, no yellow [or] other-colored highlighters, no
staples and no binders.  Please keep that in mind when assessing these
documents. 

I will give you a list at the end of this letter of what documents it
contains. 

You will be receiving a third set of documents, either directly or 
via a Canadian friend,
colleague or agent, sent to you by my wife who lives in the United 
States.  Please make certain that the caseworker will receive all 
documents sent to you pertaining to me.

Now, to my submissions - why I fear harassment, persecution and mental
tortures  by German Authorities: 

Modern-day Germany is not an ordinary state evolved over the centuries like
France, England, Canada, Australia or America.  Modern-day Germany is 
an instrument for the subjugation and control of a conquered 
population, created by the victorious Allied Military Powers, who 
were  the enemies of Germany in and after WWII.

The Allied Military Governors ruled their respective zones of 
military occupation by military decrees. Only after  the "Cold War" 
developed did the victors in East and West create puppet states, 
calling them "democratic" - which they [are] in name only! 

In reality, their founding documents, like " Basic Laws", were 
dictated to hand-picked, Allied-chosen founding groups of 
politicians, so-called "democrats" in the West - and Socialists, 
Marxists and Communists of every stripe in the East.  The judiciary 
was bequeathed by the Allies to the Germans by the same method   - 
they hand-picked the personnell for the police, the courts, the 
judges and the prosecutors.  Anyone who ignores the most basic facts 
of German's postwar history cannot possibly claim to understand the 
modern German apparition called the
"Federal  Republic of Germany".

[After the war], the Allies outlawed and weeded out all the vestiges 
of Germany's initially
democratically elected National Socialist Party which governed 
Germany under  "Emergency Laws" from 1933 -1945 - similar to Canada's 
"War Measures Act",  modified in the 1970s by Pierre Elliot 
[Trudeau's] Liberal Government.   Thus, the Allied victors outlawed 
with the stroke of a pen Germany's governing political elite and its 
governing institutions.  Tens of thousands of Party and Government 
personnel were arrested, jailed in  prisons or Allied concentration 
Camps taken over from the Germans.  They were often starved, 
tortured, beaten - tens of thousands died! 

What replaced these people and their institutions were hand-picked 
"Quislings", functioning [in] newly created Allied-bestowed 
institutions - from village policeman to ordinary postmen.  That 
Allied-imposed and installed System has perpetuated itself in power 
in East and West to this day. This situation did not change with the 
partial reunification of 1989 after the collapse of the Communist 
"dictatorship of the proletariat".

=====

I am one of the many tens of millions of Germans who understand this
historic tragedy which befell Germany after 1945 and comprehend the
political realities - this legacy of our unconditional surrender
[militarily] created [by Allied occupiers] of Germans and Germany "on 
the ground".  The German
"Quisling State" has ruthlessly persecuted  all those 
politically-aware Germans who wanted to correct this abnormal 
situation by the spoken or written word, or by the ballot box, ever 
since its  creation. 

In the 1970s, a global historical movement arose, called "Revisionism",
composed of academics, historians, writers, poets [and] political and cultural
leaders, who wanted to right the wrongs of the postwar puppet state with
[its]  draconian, antidemocratic, repressive laws and regulations, stifling
freedom of  speech and research.  As this global intellectual 
movement grew in importance and impact - especially in the German 
ethnic and language states of Austria, Germany and
Switzerland, [the Allied-imposed government] advocated ever more 
anti-democratic laws and measures to stop this attempt at peaceful, 
democratic self-assertion, self-renewal
and revision. 

Soon, the courtrooms and then the prisons of these states were filled with
tens of thousands of nonviolent "Thought Criminals".  I was, and still am, one
of  the leading figures of this Revisionist movement and process. 

=====

Thanks to Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms and also Anglo-Saxon
legal traditions, I won all my court cases involving Revisionist
publications, leaving  me without a criminal record in Canada to this 
date.  Not so in Germany, where I  was convicted for my thoughts and 
writings in 1995 under these anti-democratic  laws.  There exists [in 
Germany] no meaningful Charter of Rights Guarantees, and no hate laws 
like in Canada, where Truth is the ultimate defence of an accused 
person. 

[Ingrid's  comment:  For readers not deeply immersed in the Zundel 
struggle, this might be a bit confusing - it sometimes is to me! 
Ernst was never charged, much less convicted, under Canada's Hate 
Laws, because such a charge would have allowed him TO PRESENT 
HISTORICAL TRUTH AS A DEFENSE IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS.  However, 
under the obscene Human Rights Tribunal charges, which were 
ostensibly "remedial/administrative" in nature, Truth was declared 
NOT to be a defense.  The only thing that mattered was that certain 
ethnically privileged groups could assert that their feelings had 
been hurt and that they detected "hate" in Ernst's writings!  "HATE" 
was never defined - and, in fact, when Zundel Defense Attorney, Doug 
Christie, invited the Mayor of Toronto, Barbara Hall, to find one 
example of "hate" on the the Zundelsite, she sat there with a purple 
face, insisting that she could not find it - but she was sure she had 
seen it!  It was there! Yessir!  Somewhere!  On the Zundelsite!  Even 
the mainstream media mavens, always vilifying Ernst in their 
mendacious articles, do not understand this important distinction. 
It has been claimed over and over in the mainstream press and 
electronic media that Ernst Zundel was charged with and convicted for 
hate crimes.  Not so.  The government of Canada refused to go that 
route, despite all the screeching and hectoring by the Canadian 
Jewish Lobby, knowing that the prosecution could not win if 
Historical Truth WAS allowed as a defense.  As Ernst wants to make 
clear below, in CRIMINAL proceedings in Germany, however, Truth is no 
defense!  And he would face CRIMINAL charges!]

In Germany, "TRUTH IS NO DEFENCE" under the draconian hate laws [having been]
used  in the 1980s ad the 1990s to suppress and criminalize burgeoning
Revisionism.  Thus, all the things I said and wrote and broadcast - 
perfectly legally,
constitutionally protected in Canada in my 45 years here as a writer and
man of  ideas - would be judged pretty well all illegal in the 
repressive Germany of today. 

Thus, as soon as it became known in German police and judicial 
circles that I would be deported from the USA, a sweeping new, 
Europe-wide arrest warrant, some 15 pages in length, was issued 
against me on 17 February 2003, the day of  my deportation from the 
USA, by a German judge in the town of Mannheim.  A German Embassy 
official, Mr. Adelt in Ottawa, told the Canadian media
that I would be promptly arrested, tried, convicted - and that a 
minimum of five years  imprisonment would be my fate the moment I set 
foot on German soil! 

=====

I have gone through the farce of German legal proceedings in Munich 
and elsewhere before, where no rules of evidence like in Canadian 
Criminal proceedings apply, and where no Court stenographer takes 
down verbatim transcripts of the proceedings.  Thus, none of my 
expert witnesses, qualified as such by Canadian judges in lengthy 
Canadian legal proceedings in the 1980s as Court recognized experts, 
were  accepted by German Courts.  Neither were any of my exculpatory 
historical  documents allowed as evidence in these same subject 
matter German legal  proceedings. 

To answer your questions 1 to 5 in your publication "preparing my PRRA
application" on page 4 and 5:

1. Why would I be at risk if I was returned to my country of nationality or
  habitual residence? 

The answer is simple:  Because my thoughts and beliefs based on decades of
thorough research [all perfectly legal in Canada] would be considered
criminal thoughts and illegal beliefs in Germany today. 

2. What kinds of risks would I face and why?

Even if I did not utter a single word about my beliefs  and thoughts 
after returning to Germany, there are millions	[of these words] by 
me and about me in dozens of books, booklets, letters, articles and 
films on hundreds of web  sites on the world- wide Internet, for 
which the German
Authorities not only could but will charge me criminally, once [they 
have me] in their clutches. The  instruments used would be the very 
anti-democratic freedom of speech and freedom  of research 
suppressing laws introduced in the 1980s and 1990s. 

This being a fact - and not just some paranoid fear - I would be in 
jail in Germany not for what I might say after I arrived there, but 
for what I [said],  wrote, published and broadcast perfectly legally 
and constitutionally protected  in Canada and the United States in my 
45 years on the North American continent.  The situation is grotesque.

3. How do these risks concern me personally and directly?

See above. 

4. How is my situation similar to or different from the rest of the
population in my country of nationality and habitual residence? 

Let me answer this two-part question this way:

How is my situation similar to  the rest of the population in my 
country of nationality and habitual residence?  Over 130,000 Germans 
have been charged, tried and convicted to  huge fines [up to] DM 
50,000 - DM 30,600 in my case - and to long prison terms since 1989 
[including foreigners living there or visiting only] in modern-day 
Germany, if they [spoke], wrote or published similar views to
my own. 

How is my situation different from the situation of the rest of the 
population?  All those who are politically and historically 
disinterested,  ignorant or ill-informed who have not had the benefit 
of free inquiry we enjoy in Canada and America,  are all safe. 
Ignorance is not only "bliss" in this  case - in modern Germany, 
ignorance means freedom from persecution through judicial 
prosecution. 

5. If I moved to another city or region of my country, would I be able to
escape the risks for which I am applying for protection?

The answer is shockingly simple:  Not only would I be not safe from
persecution in the smallest hamlet or town anywhere in Germany, I would be
subject to arrest and extradition to Germany in any of the European
communities comprising states - all of which have to honour Germany's
arrests, warrants, and  extradition requests!  Only England and Ireland have
not complied [in honoring these requests] in the case of  British 
Historian, David Irving. 

6. One important note for the caseworker:  Since I have only lived
19  years [one-third of my life] in the country of my birth, Germany, but
45 years [with 2 years interruption] in Canada, I can rightly claim
Canada to be my  country of habitual residence, rather than Germany. 

You will understand that it is extremely difficult for me from a Maximum
Security, 24-hour lockup facility to marshal all the proofs I would, were
I  free and not in prison!  However, I think my case is so well known,
documented by  thousands of articles, interviews, news casts and court
judgments, that if you  find the evidence is not sufficient, then nothing
more I could have sent in or supplied you with would make much of a
difference. 

I am being railroaded on behalf of the powerfully connected Zionist-Jewish
Lobby, for whom the Government of Canada once more, as so many times before,
seems [to act] like mere errand boy.  These powerful Zionist-Jewish 
groups have been at the bottom of every one of  my court cases in 
Canada - all the way up to the Supreme Court.  Read
the names  on the Supreme Court decisions of those who persecuted and
prosecuted me. They  are not French Canadian, Italian, Black or Indian
Groups - they are always the  Government-backed Jewish Lobby Groups. 
They have had one goal as their chief agenda - to criminalized me, to 
deport  me to Germany for further "treatment".

every Jewish Lobby Group demanded  for 25 years!
