Good Morning from the Zundelsite:


Recently, a "Letter to the Editor" campaign was sent out of the Zundel-Haus. I set its contents aside as one of my "Shocking List" ZGrams - such as the "List of the Annas" and the "support list" for the convicted Jewish-American spy Jonathan Pollard by Jewish synagogues and organizations.

Here is what was shipped from the Zundel-Haus:

"We have just celebrated International Human Rights Day. It would be helpful if ALL people could enjoy those rights proclaimed so loftily by organizations such as the United Nations - not just the politically privileged few.

The General Assembly of the UN has recognized ". . . the fundamental right (of Palestinians) to struggle '. . . by any means at their disposal.'" So let's examine the "Human Rights" record, as documented by the UN, of one state and people who accuse the Germans all the time about their so-called "human rights violations" alleged to have occurred more than 50 years ago.

In "Deliberate Deceptions: Facing the Facts About US-Israeli Relationship" (Lawrence Hill Books, 1995) author Paul Findley makes the point that Israel, with the collusion of the power elite on our continent, has been successful over the decades in keeping the United Nations on the sidelines in efforts to find a solution to the Middle East problem and to create real peace:

Here is a list of UN Resolutions, 1955-1992:
