This essay was written and sent out a couple of weeks ago, but as 
many of my readers know, I once again battled censorship and could 
not send out missives.  In the meantime, David Irving is now free - 
perhaps as a result of the Iranian Conference - but there are still 
three high profile revisionists/activists in prison, and pressure 
needs to be applied on Germany's vassals to the Holocaust Lobby.

Read and distribute widely, please.  Remember Germar Rudolf, Horst 
Mahler, and Ernst Zundel!

They met in Teheran

By Israel Shamir

  The Teheran Holocaust Conference caused quite a storm in the world 
media. One might ask: what's so special about that? There are so many 
holocaust events and holocaust museums and holocaust festivals, 
sometimes attracting presidents and prime ministers galore, so why 
did the Teheran (or Tehran) conference draw so much attention and 
criticism; why were the White House, Frau Merkel, the Vatican and the 
EC willing to take some valuable time to condemn this small gathering 
in far-away Iranian capital?

The difference is that all other gatherings were amen-sayers 
accepting the official version provided by Jewish organisations as 
the Holy Writ given to Moses on Mt Sinai. The official version of the 
Holocaust goes even farther than Writ: you may deny Immaculate 
Conception and Resurrection of Christ, you may besmirch Muhammad, but 
if you have any doubt that six million of Jews were executed by 
Germans in gas chambers within the framework of a total annihilation 
project you may find yourself in a jail in Germany, Austria, France, 
Switzerland and other 'free' countries. The Teheran Conference is the 
first one ever to deal critically with the sad events of the World 
War Two.

One does not have to be a fan of Hitler to approve of the conference. 
What is a souse for a goose is souse for a gander. The Jews do not 
hesitate to deny their atrocities.  The Guardian reported that they 
targeted "the respected French TV correspondent, Charles Enderlin, 
whose Palestinian cameraman filmed 12-year-old Mohammed al-Dura being 
shot and killed, as his father tried to shield him at the start of 
the second intifada. Enderlin accused Israeli troops of shooting and 
killing the boy. French supporters of Israel went online to claim the 
report was a distortion based on faked footage. His network, France 
2, responded with legal action and, last month, in the first of four 
individual cases, a French court found the organiser of a self-styled 
media watchdog website guilty of libel.

"Another online target has been the TV footage of bloodshed on a Gaza 
beach earlier this year. A Palestinian girl was seen screaming as she 
saw the bodies of dead family members killed by what Palestinians 
allege was Israeli shellfire. When [Stewart Purvis, the 
editor-in-chief of ITN] mentioned the impact of these pictures at 
last week's conference, members of the audience shouted "staged". One 
person came up to him afterwards to suggest that the family had 
somehow died somewhere else and that their bodies had been moved to 
the beach to be filmed. Where, for instance, was all the blood? He 
pointed out that he had seen everything that the cameraman had shot 
and that some pictures were too gruesome to be shown."

More importantly, every freedom-of-speech loving liberal should 
regret that even important historians are not free to express their 
views on the Holocaust issue.  David Irving is in jail, and this week 
Germar Rudolf was taken to a German court chained hand and foot after 
he was deported from the US for publishing his book doubting the 
official Holocaust dogma. Such a taboo clamours to be broken. I wrote 
of it at length in 2001, as the first conference scheduled to take 
place in Beirut was cancelled by the Lebanese yielding to severe 
pressure of the US. Then as now, the revisionists had much hope that 
their case would finally be heard.

It did not happen. If the conference organisers believed they could 
break the taboo and reach millions, they were mistaken. Though the 
world media has churned out thousands of news items connected to the 
Conference, they were practically identical, containing local 
official condemnation and the predictable Jewish reaction. 
Practically none of the reports and talks given in Tehran ever made 
it to the mass media. The conference participants were smeared as 
'racist antisemites' though there were quite a few Jews, venerable 
Rabbis in their black hats and long coats, revolted by the Zionist 
privatisation of the World War tragedy.

If anything, the conference proved that the holocaust dogma is a 
basic tenet in the great world-embracing brainwashing machine of mass 
media described by Noam Chomsky as "the manufacture of consent Stalin 
could only dream of Š whose discipline, and uniformity, are really 
impressive". This media syndicate is the enemy of free people 
everywhere, and it carries on a relentless war against Iran and other 
independently-minded nations.

Just one case: a Jewish-owned Canadian paper, The National Post 
claimed that "in a move reminiscent of the Nazis forcing Jews to wear 
a Star of David insignia, Iran's parliament has reportedly passed a 
law requiring Jews to wear colour-coded badges". This was a sheer 
lie: Iran is home to 30,000 Jews who are doing fine, and do not plan 
to emigrate to Israel. They receive preferential treatment, and 
nobody forces them to wear a badge or anything else. The Post 
withdrew the canard a few days later, and apologised, but this news 
item was repeated ad nauseam in thousands of papers and blogs, while 
the apology remained on its sixth page.

Our friend and my countryman Gabriel Ash wrote in the Dissident Voice:

"The Holocaust is the most effective weapon in the hands of those 
bent on manufacturing a "clash of civilizations." The "lesson" of the 
holocaust is good enough to justify the NATO bombing of civilian 
targets in Yugoslavia, the genocidal U.S. occupation of Iraq, 
Israel's massive bombing of Beirut, a future nuclear war against 
Iran, etc. The Hollowcaust is the ideology par excellence of Global 
Apartheid. The Hollowcaust acts like a quirky and capricious 
divinity, rejecting one comparison here, accepting an equally valid 
or invalid one there. It is a partisan divinity, a god that always 
blesses 'us' and curses 'them,' even as it simultaneously demands to 
be worshipped by all humanity and in the name of all humanity."

So far so good. Ash understands that "under such circumstances, the 
denial of the holocaust is rooted in the desire to pin down the 
Hollowcaust". But then he opens the second front against the 
conference:

"The most charitable thing that can be said about the organizers of 
this pathetic holocaust conference is that they are fools. The 
message of Hollowcaust hawkers is only amplified by such idiocies as 
the Iranian conference."

And here we part ways. Iranians had a good reason for organising the 
conference. The Holocaust is indeed well integrated in the prevalent 
discourse as a justification of [rich and powerful] minority rights 
over [oppressed] majority needs. But its success and its integration 
show that the mass media machine is well integrated and concentrated 
in philosemitic, mostly Jewish hands. The occupation of Palestine by 
Jews is painful, but it is not more harmful than this captivity of 
free discourse.

These men can wield their lethal machine with the ease of a Jedi 
wielding his sword. They compare Ahmadinejad to Hitler, and forbid 
comparison of Israel to the Nazis, they besmirch Vladimir Putin as a 
KGB assassin and do not even report that Israeli courts of law 
consider assassinations legitimate, they made a spot on Monica 
Lewinsky's dress more important than the rivers of blood poured by 
George Bush, they turned respectable American scholars Mearsheimer 
and Walt into skinheads, and now they ferociously attack James Baker 
for his disengagement plan. They can bloody well do anything. They 
are almost omnipotent.

Our friend James Petras recently published an impressive book on 
Israel's Power in the US. But Israel's power is just a mere 
reflection of real Jewish power in the West, which is based - not on 
Israeli tanks, but on Jewish think-tanks; not on Israeli nukes, but 
on Jewish news. Unless the Jewish hold on discourse is broken, the 
West will keep sending its sons to follow the Pied Piper of Hamelin 
to the streets of Baghdad and to the hills of Lebanon.

Iranians came to conclusion that there is no chance to come to 
agreement with this world-wide Jewish media syndicate. There is no 
way to get to peace terms. One has to fight back, attacking the 
deepest sacral dogmas of their control. If this dogma were to 
collapse, the Jewish hold on discourse would be broken and the Jewish 
state would disappear just as the USSR did, said President 
Ahmadinejad.

This comparison calls for exegesis: the USSR was 'one state', a state 
where various peoples lived together as equals; the Jewish state is 
essentially 'two states', a rich state of Jews controlling the poor 
state of natives. Its dissolution will create 'one state' in 
Palestine; it will reverse the trend started with the Soviet Union's 
dissolution. Then Iran, and all of the East, will be able to dwell 
safely without fear of American and Israeli nukes.

This is the reason why Iran hosted the conference. Nobody - and I do 
mean nobody, including British, French, American, German, Russian 
leaders - really cares about the victims of a war long past, Jewish 
or otherwise; they pay tribute to the Holocaust as nations pay 
tribute to their vanquisher.  Iran has refused to pay this tribute; 
when will the rest of you follow their courageous example?
