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

November 5, 2003

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

Last night, I typed and edited this with a very heavy heart but can 
only send it today. The reason for my sadness was that I knew that 
yet another so-called "bail hearing" would yield exactly nothing - 
starting today and scheduled to last through tomorrow.  That judge 
just babbles on and hasn't got a clue!

Somewhere I read that a Security Certificate is costing the good 
Canadians more than $1 million per political target - and here they 
(and we) have already paid almost a year's worth of attorney fees - 
and not even the bail question has yet been settled!  It will be yet 
one more grotesque display of Jewish rancor - and to what end?  To 
keep a mind imprisoned that stretches across eons of time and sees 
far more than most of us perceive?

I was looking for something uplifting and "neutral" to send out on 
the eve of this hearing.  Can you  toy with the idea that maybe we, 
who are so fundamentally different from our enemies not just in looks 
but inwardly, in our very soul and spirit, , might be descendents of 
that lost world called Atlantis?

In the excerpt below, you see Ernst on a flight of fancy in a letter 
to a Midwest supporter.  If I misspell a few terms, don't hold it 
against me - I am not familiar with this saga at all, but I know that 
it is of great significance to Ernst.  He can really dig into those 
sagas and tales of the past and get an emotional charge out of it:

[START]

Your treatise, entitled "Atlantis:  A different view has to be the 
most powerful, thought-provoking, mind- and phantasy-stimulating 
piece that I have come across in all the years I have probed and 
researched these topics.  That brings me to the speculations about a) 
did Atlantis exist, and b) if it did, where was it? 

I am fairly familiar with the various speculative theories about the 
topic.  I tend to agree with you as to the geographic location.  I 
think that the North Sea idea of Jürgen Spanuth is a bit far-fetched. 
I will readily concede that there are remnants of an ancient culture 
and people up in regions like the British Isles, Scotland and even 
northwestern France.  But like you, I think that the Eastern 
Mediterranean and offshore Greek-Turkish area seems more likely to be 
the place. 

You talk about that "Great Aegean Earthquake" if that theory is 
correct - that the land barrier was pierced at Gibraltar, let's say, 
10,000 or more years ago.  The Mediterranean Basin was rapidly filled 
with inrushing waters.  The weight of that enormous body of water 
would have created earthquakes of a 10 on a Richter Scale.  We know 
that because after the Sambesi River Dam and Caborra Bassa were 
completed, as the vast lakes formed behind the dams - nothing the 
size of the scale of the whole Mediterranean, mind you - massive 
earthquakes took place all over Africa which were registered in 
Nigeria, Sudan and all the way to the Quattara Depression on the 
Egyptian/Libyan borders. 

One can imagine what will happen in China on the Yangtze, when those 
massive Chinese dams will be completed.  There will be huge 
earthquakes in China and the rest of Asia, you can be sure! 
Thousands will die as a result!  And all of those earthquakes would 
be minor compared to what the weight of the Mediterranean Sea would 
have done to that area!

That Thera and Santorini and possibly Atlantis were  pressed down by 
the huge weight of water is not only conceivable but eminently 
logical.  That Cro-Magnon living spaces, caves etc. should be flooded 
is also logical.  That's why recently discovered, huge caves have 
entrances that were under water but whose walls are adorned with 
paintings of clearly African type animals that lived there in that 
basin before that Gibraltar Mountain range gave way!

That would mean that all the waters'-edge cities [of Atlantis would 
be] hundreds of feet or more below the surface of the present day 
Mediterranean sea level.  There must have been a large body of water 
because rivers like the Nile, the Po, the Tiber, the Rhone and many 
smaller ones emptied into that inland sea - something like the 
Caspian Sea today! 

If we look at that scenario realistically, there would have been a 
very healthful climate and fertile soil from eons of time, of silt 
being deposited.  Just as in the  Egyptian Nile lowlands, and also 
the Fertile Crescent around the Euphratis and Tigris River, that area 
would have spawned thriving civilizations, as happened in the Indus 
Valley, where the same fertilization through floodwater-born mountain 
silting guaranteed the most health-giving, body nourishing crops for 
untold millennia. 

Atlantis, or the lowlands-coastal regions of Thera, Santorini, 
Cyprus, Crete, Corsica, Sicily and both coasts of Italy and North 
Africa, must have produced crops, and thus human civilizations, in 
abundance.  It is not inconceivable that just like the Indo-Germanic 
inhabitants of the Indus Valley, whose Sanskrit language even today 
has high tech terms for all kinds of things like silent flying 
machines, rockets etc., such a highly developed culture and 
civilization existed in those coastal lowlands where you suspect 
Atlantis to have been.

This would also go a long way in explaining why the Greeks could come 
up with such magnificent temples, virtually from standstill, and 
build magnificent cities, holy shrines, well-engineered fleets, 
marvelous sports stadiums - and also why they were such skilled 
warriors and military tacticians.  It also would explain why Turkey 
and North Africa on higher ground would be dotted with the most 
beautifully laid-out and perfectly constructed massive stone 
structures, temples etc.  Those could harken back to at least genetic 
imprint memory if not to actual skills and learning passed down to 
them by their lowland-dwelling Atlantis forebears, who left them 
behind in the highlands of Crete, Cyprus, Italy, Greece and along the 
Turkish-Palestinian, Egyptian and Libyan coasts or new shore lines. 
That these early Aryans would sail out through the Pillars of 
Hercules at both ends of their new lake should not surprise any of us 
who still sense the blood of our ancestors in our veins.

A few years ago, Discovery Magazine had a fascinating article about 
blue-eyed, blond, 6' tall Aryan mummies, which were found perfectly 
preserved in outer Mongolia.  Some of these mummies were women who 
were dressed in Scottish Tartan pattern dresses with finely woven 
woollen garments, sewn piping in bright colors, with leather boots 
and horses bridles made from iron, similar in design to artifacts 
found in the northern Ukraine, today's Byelorussia.  Some of the 
mummies had intricate brain surgery and injuries sutured by fine 
needles using horsehair as thread, as perfectly as any modern 
surgeon's work. 

Populations moved from Northwest to Greece, Egypt - South to East, it 
seems.   China was indeed colonized by these Aryans who introduced 
iron smelting to China, the only country that has no stone age or 
bronze age to speak of before suddenly iron and metal tools and 
weapons arrived.

I just read a fascinating book, The Seven Sisters of Eve,  which 
genetically, through DNA analysis, proves that the moves of 
Polynesians was from China to  Malaysia to Borneo towards Hawaii and 
the Coast of America, and that Thor Heiderdahl's Kon Tiki was in 
error.  Nice adventure, but still, the settlement pattern went in the 
opposite direction, which proves that the German professor Wirth was 
correct - that Aryans roamed the planet from at least 30,000 B.C. in 
every direction, maybe even long before those dates.

That makes all your theories relevant and fascinating, and I think 
you are on the right track to use overlapping linguistic terms - 
descriptions for tools, houses, temples and gods.  With today's 
vastly expanded memories of even simple home computers, a dedicated 
team of revisionists could solve these riddles with far less sweat 
and costs than Schliemann spent in finding the gold of Troy.

I also believe you are right about Carthegian/ Phoenicians having an 
active trade with North and South America, for just a few years ago 
someone found Greek type ships on the ocean floor in the Buenos Aires 
harbor area, which had neat rows of "crocks" (as we call them in 
German) used to transport wine and olive oil, unbroken, resting 
neatly on the ocean floor in the position they were tied on the ship 
before it capsized.  There were 304 of them, the wood of which was 
just about gone. 

You are absolutely right about the Welsh having come here a long time 
ago.  I followed with my son one summer the Lewis and Clark 
expedition route across America.  This expedition stayed with the 
Mandara.  I have seen the description of their women, their behaviour 
and dress, their morals, and their names and language as well as skin 
color - and there is no doubt that they were of European origin. 
Unfortunately, these remnants were soon after Lewis and Clarke passed 
through infected by some contagious disease and just about wiped out 
- in a generation, it seems. 

Before I left Canada, I read a book called "The Flood", if I remember 
right, in which a drilling ship I have always been fascinated by, 
called the Glomar Challenger, was used to drill the entire 
Mediterranean Sea and especially the coastline as well as the 
Dardannelles and the whole of the old and then expanded Black Sea 
area.  The core samples also clearly reveal that not too long ago, 
the whole Mediterranean Basin was a semi-arid African steppe-like 
depression, deeper than the Dead Sea - and that through a natural 
disaster, earthquake or meteorite impact, the land bridge from Spain 
to North Africa was pierced.

Atlantic ocean water rushed in, filling the whole of the 
Mediterranean Basin in a relatively short time.  That, in turn, made 
the water in the Bosporus rise and back up,  and a similar 
catastrophe as at Gibraltar took place there, and now the 
Mediterranean filled the Black Sea Basin, according to the Glomar 
Challenger drill core bits and analyzed rock core samples.  It 
created huge thunderstorms, and the condensed, evaporated water came 
down as torrents of rains and storms of unknown before magnitude and 
intensity in this area. 

As the waters rose, and rose, and rose, vast populations were 
uprooted and driven to ever higher, steeper, mountainous ground, 
forested, rocky, and unsuitable for agriculture.  No wonder that you 
describe a "physical and psychological decline" - a social structures 
fragmentation with populations returning from their drowning cities 
to little plots of land.  It would be like the coast of California 
sinking into the oceans and the remnants eking out a living up at 
Lake Tahoe and Las Vegas. 

That those who had been fishermen or traders, using boats, would take 
to the ever-expanding sea coast and raid, rob and settle along the 
new coastlines is also logical, and that they would carry along with 
them colorful tales and leave an oral history to their descendents, 
which in time became myths and intertwined miracles and gods, lies in 
the nature of things.  That is where all the wondrous stuff about 
Atlantis comes from.

The authors say, convincingly to me, that the local coastal 
inhabitants all throughout the area were forced to abandon their 
former homes and ports, fled into mountains, up river etc. and that 
the storm and flood subsided once the same water level as the 
Mediterranean was reached.  Noah, whoever he was, survived the 
natural local disaster in his ark.  Generations of descendants 
embellished the story of this one guy and his family who had the 
brains to head for his sturdy boat with his immediate family. Much 
fiction with a smidgen of fact!  After being caught up in that 
natural disaster and subsequent or accompanying drastic weather and 
climate change, one can forgive a guy to embellish things a bit for 
better press and sympathy - as "Holocaust" survivors do. That's why 
he did not have to explain how he got to Antarctica for Penguins or 
Africa for Zebras, and needed no microscope to find the testicles on 
a male mosquito. 

We are going back to Atlantis to enter the future.
