Good Morning from the Zundelsite:




A recurring theme in many of the letters we receive is that of the totally beholden, servile mainstream media - what I call Lapdog Media - and the healthy, instinctive reaction of people who turn to alternative news. I don't consider the ZGrams "news" except in a very peripheral sense - I do them merely so as to leave as accurate a record as I can of the ferment of our times and of the essence of the ever-more-polarizing ideological struggle.

The letter below is typical of how the Net and its nature are viewed by people who are tuned in to what is going on:

". . . Don't know 'bout now, but 8 years ago Mark Lane and Victor Marchetti used to bring out a newsletter called "Zionwatch." It was an expensive bundle of paper, but it seemed to do a pretty thorough job of tracking Zionist influence, personalities, mischief, chicanery, etc. After a year I didn't renew my subscription (I almost wrote "prescription"--a Freudian slip or what?) because of the cost and competition for my time and attention. I think it was a bi-monthly item.

Nowadays I receive the equivalent and more of "Zionwatch" from inbound e-mail and my own occasional monitoring efforts on a *daily* basis. How times have changed. Goodness! how times have changed! A daunting fact you've underscored oftentimes in the Zundelgrams.

The opposition to the Zionist Moloch has gone high tech with a vengeance: Strom, Black, Smith (Winston and Bradley), Butz, Toben, Rami, Thion - the list goes on and on and on. What must really rattle our opponents is the tremendous intellectual firepower in the revisionist and/or patriot camp. I am constantly amazed by two things: the articulate, insightful articles that pour out of our camp and the dreary shabbiness of the material dredged up by our opponents.

What's truly remarkable from our perspective (and dangerous from that of our opposition) is the twofold thrust of the revisionist outreach. That is, we not only unmask the lies of the past (re Auschwitz, Katyn, etc.), but also those of the present . . . as they are being told (re the alleged "co-ordinated" burning of the black churches in the Deep South, the CSIS and SIRC collusion to deport Zundel, etc.)

More and more now there is an ever widening perception that mainstream media is giving the public only the outer husk of "the news" and that to be truly informed one must turn to the Net to discover the hard kernels of truth underneath. In doing so, two things happen: the digger-after-truth learns enough to piece together the whole story concerning some current event - *and* discovers, in the process, the degree to which he has been lied to or misled by mainstream media.

Result: the credibility of the mainstream media is crumbling hourly. In fact, even those derisively referred to as "the unwashed masses" are likewise rapidly losing confidence in them.

It is said that Khomeinist messages disseminated by the cheap Sony tape-recorder galvanized the Iranians and brought about the Islamic Revolution in 1978, which culminated in the overthrow of the seemingly invincible Shah's regime. No wonder our opposition is frantic about the freedom and power our people can exercise through the Net.

It is laying the foundation for a second American Revolution.

That's why I was so happy to see and report on the Harvard Law School item yesterday. To have us be listed as "examples of web hate" is telling and shows the state of mind and level of Zionist influence at Harvard.

It is especially revealing when we get posted vis-a-vis such unsavory groups as the Toronto-based, inarticulate, violent ARA - which stands, of course, for "Anti-Racist-Action". That kind of exposure of who we really are and what we really say is worth more than publicity money could buy. The mere juxtaposition of our sites and our postings against that filthy, uncouth ARA site will once again do our work for us. Anybody with three brain cells left to do comparisons will see comparisons - and draw his own conclusions.

And what is so remarkable - and heartening - is that so many of our Converts-to-the-Truth come straight out of the mainstream media camp - and some of them are in positions of power where they can feed the wire. They are fed up with being lackeys. A healthy mind despises being treated as a hireling - and must despise itself for doing scut work for a parasitic enterprise of mind manipulation to serve a shrill minority's incessant tribal strivings.

It's just as Samuel Taylor Coleridge said two hundred years ago: "And in today already walks tomorrow."
