Good Morning from the Zundelsite:


Regarding our e-mail and communications problems, I have had word from at least one source in Europe that messages to me bounce back with the following: "e-mail to irimland is returned with 'user unknown'." You tell me what that means!

We are still struggling, and the ZGrams are still going out, although my "in" Eudora box is overflowing with returns and people wondering what happened.

I have three items for you today that illustrate the broadening struggle on the part of our opposition to suppress information regarding the Holocaust hoax. Two are very recent and overt, and one is a bit dated and covert.

"Yesterday (12/12/96) Spanish police raided a book store in Barcelona, Spain, and seized over 7,000 books and other material they say "espoused Nazism" and denied the "Holocaust."
The owner of the store, Pedro Varela, was arrested and later released on bail. Police said most of the books, which were written in Spanish, German and English, were published in South America.
Swastika flags and "xenophobic videos" were also seized. A law has recently been passed in Spain which makes in illegal to "defend genocide."

". . . Each year, the Government Relations Office coordinates B'nai Brith Canada's appearance at meetings sponsored by Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada. These meetings are held to solicit input on the annual U.N. Commission on Human Rights ("CHR") held in Geneva, which is the main UN body dealing with human rights issues.

In 1994 and 1996, B'nai Brith Canada sent two representatives to the Commission on Human Rights in Geneva. In collaboration with Jewish organizations worldwide, B'nai Brith Canada successfully pressed the UN to condemn anti-Semitism for the first time in its history. B'nai Brith Canada aggressively urged our Federal Government to back a fair treatment of Israel by the UN, and advocates for the increased attention to the problem of right-wing extremism throughout Europe.

In 1996, B'nai Brith's focus was to deal with hate material on the Internet and with the separate agenda item under which Israel is examined for alleged Human Rights abuses. . . . "

In a previous ZGram I mentioned 95 resolutions and US vetoes pertaining to that very record - a record of human rights aboses that speaks for itself. Will the powers that be busy themselves with that record as they attempt to censor us? Let us all hope and pray.

You can see that if and when the Zundelsite censorship issue moves openly to the UN level, Ernst Zundel has his job cut out.
