September 21, 1996

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:


This is a follow-up on yesterday. It is a somewhat dated column, but it is so good I can't bear to file it away without sharing it first with both friend and foe. It serves as a refresher course for what is yet to come. It is an authentic Doug Collins, he of the North Shore News. (July 1, 1996)

Doug wrote this prior to the SIRC demise when Judge Heald ruled that Ernst had a right to be judged in an unbiased setting whether or not he was a ". . . danger to the security of Canada," as the Shadows would have you believe.

Here's what Doug had to say:

"WE often flatter ourselves that government conspiracies common to the American legal and political systems do not apply in the True North. That may have been the case once. No longer.

We have only to look at the never-ending actions against Ernst Zundel, who of course is a fully registered villain - a "neo-Nazi" and admirer of Hitler.

He may be. But that doesn't impress me. There is no lack of Stalin-lovers and neo-Bolsheviks in this country, some of whom find government employment, while others send bombs to people. But there is no big campaign against them.

Zundel sends only word bombs. Hauled before the courts for years on thought-crime charges, he has never finally been found guilty.

In short, he is not a criminal. But Ottawa wants to deport him.

Real criminals are often allowed to remain, however.

When Gerry Weiner was minister of immigration he let Abraham Finkel stay. Finkel had been convicted of serious crimes in several countries, and two previous ministers had denied him immigrant status. But he got to stay.

What is Zundel's offence? "Holocaust denial" and "anti-Zionism."

The Canadian Jewish Congress sees him as Public Enemy Number One and a hate merchant. But he has never been in court on hate charges.

Only last March, Charles Harnick, the attorney general of Ontario (who is Jewish) had to drop such charges against him for lack of evidence.

A new tack had to be tried and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) obliged, claiming he was a danger to Canadian security, and he was hauled before the Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC).

It is a process in which all the dice are loaded against the target. The hearings are held behind closed doors, no media are present, and there is no cross-examination of witnesses.

It is a secret police action aimed in this case at getting Zundel out of the country.

(He arrived in Canada in 1958 and has twice been denied citizenship even though government sources have admitted that his applications were "flawless.")

The first witness against him at the security hearing was Bernie Farber of the Jewish Congress.

The official reason for claiming Zundel is a danger to security is that he "may" have associated with members of the racist Heritage Front, which is said to be violent, although as far as I have been able to determine its violence has been confined to defending itself against attack by leftists.

But here's the trump. The chief organizer for the Heritage Front was Grant Bristow, who turned out to be a government agent provocateur who had been paid a lot of money by CSIS. They set something up, you see, and then they tear it down.

One is reminded of Tsarist days in Russia and of the many members of the U.S. Communist Party who were FBI men. Had it not been for them the party might have collapsed.

Whatever the Heritage Front may be, there is no law preventing anyone from associating with anyone else, unless they are conspiring to commit a crime. Which has to be proved in court, not at some secret hearing.

The claim that Zundel is a danger to Canadian security is a joke.

In 1984 his house was bombed. In 1995 it was destroyed by an arsonist. In the same year he got a parcel bomb that would have killed him if he had opened it.

In 1988, at his second "false news" trial, he was attacked by three Jews on the steps of the Toronto courthouse.

The incident was shown on TV and they were charged, but the court gave them "the benefit of the doubt."

One wonders whether that verdict would have applied if Zundel's people had been roughing up Jews on the courthouse steps.

His pursuers have now run into a snag.

Lawyer Doug Christie went to court recently to get a declaration that the security hearings should not take place on account of CSIS being biased in the case.

To the rage of many, the judge adjourned the case "sine die," meaning indefinitely.

So CSIS cannot proceed, and Zundel will be around for a while yet. . . ."

The only thing I'd have to add to the above is that it was CIRC, not CSIS, that was involved in the hearings. That's why, in yesterday's ZGram, I nicknamed them "C-Sis" and "Sirk." When you are dealing with twins, even ideological twins, it isn't always easy to tell just who is who.

I wanted you to read this because, as I said yesterday, the Government of Canada has filed for an Appeal. The Zundel Saga will go on, most likely in October. I ought to know, I spent the last week losing all my fingertips from typing documents to be put up for media worthy of its name to expose the Crooked and Corrupt by their own words and actions, and let the rest of us reflect on how our world is doctored.

I think that it is no exaggeration to say that never has the Government of Canada had such a hoary time in getting rid of just one man who counts on facts of science as being stubborn things and KNOWS that truth can be a diamond that scratches every other stone.
