"The gas chambers have nothing to do with anti-Semitism. When I say that the gas chambers are a detail of history of the Second World War, it's obvious. If you take a book on the Second World War of a thousand pages, you will have four pages on deportation, and on these four pages you will have six lines on the gas chambers."
He added "I'm interested in the future. I'm not interested in what happened 50 years ago."
Le Pen also says, "The fact of being Francophile doesn't require being xenophobic. The fact that I prefer the French does not mean I detest the English. I like them less than the French -- overall."
He goes on to say that he envisions a "Europe of the fatherlands," where "among all the national movements, a common body of doctrine (exists), which includes the love of the fatherland of the past, of the earth, traditional values."
Dangerous stuff, right? It is almost surreal to watch what's happening in
France where Le Pen is clearly on the political offensive, what with elections
imminent.
One of our correspondents wrote:
"Persecutions against the NF increase every single day. Here is a list of a few events picked out in the nationalist papers of this week:
· Yvan Blot, an European deputy and a president of the NF Alsace Regional Group, wanted to join a local cultural club called "Culture et bilinguisme d'Alsace et de Moselle"; ; the president of the club refused and argued that the "values" of the NF were not the same as those of the club.
· The "Musee social" in Paris, a hundred-year-old association who rents conference rooms, got so much pressure from the media that they have just decided they would no longer rent them to the National Front, who had rented them for many years.
· "Charlie-Hebdo", a Trotskyist weekly, has just disclosed a series of boycottings against people belonging to the National Front, such as post-office workers refusing to distribute some mail, telephone employees refusing to install telephone lines, etc.
· Catherine Megret, the new mayor of Vitrolles and wife of the NF number 2, Bruno Megret, is constantly harassed in the town hall: during the last council (town councils are public), more than 100 agitators, led by the previous mayor, came in to prevent her from holding it and she had to call for the police; last Saturday, again they came to stop her from celebrating a wedding.
· After the interview she gave to the "Berliner Zeitung", 700 complaints (700!) have been lodged against Catherine Megret. This is the result of a mailing sent by three people to several thousand people (who paid for it?).
· Jean-Marie Le Chevallier, the NF mayor of the big city of Toulon, has just been refused to have his two girls, 8 and 10, registered in a catholic school for next year; the school answered that their Christian vision of mankind was not in accordance with the ideas of the NF.
· Today, April 17, Bruno Megret, the general delegate, was invited to a meeting which had to be cancelled at the last moment because public authorities refused to send the police to protect the meeting against leftist and far-leftist commandos who had announced their coming.
· Bruno Megret is due to hold a meeting in Boulogne (a suburb near Paris) on April 22: leftist organizations and trade unionists said they would prevent it.
· Two elected members of the NF have just been sentenced for having hissed Michel Noir in a theater as the latter was playing, after having been deprived of his mandate of deputy on account of bribery; when he still was a deputy, Michel Noir had made public that he didn't want "to lose his soul" by talking to people from the National Front.
Whether by judicial pressure or by street demonstrations, (the NF members) hardly have any possibility of speaking and, even, of living."
Dostoevsky once wrote: "A man armed with the Truth possesses a great
and terrible force."
It never ceases to amaze me that the force that ruled us all for the past
50 years - a force which did not even have a name until the 1970s - is based
on 9 small letters: "Holocaust." De-mystify those letters, and
you are shutting off the tap supplying that hidden power with the money
and moral approval it needs.
It is that simple. Once the man in the streets of the Western powers understand
that, the balance of power will shift - and it could come to pass, as one
ZGram reader predicted:
"We NEED Israel. Certainly, we should not be spending what we do on
them, but where else do we repatriate their _expatriot citizens_ ?"
Would anyone want that? Why not, instead, air out the Holocaust - nine letters
that are stinking to high heaven?
Why not appoint a neutral commission or a global symposium, in full view
of the public, where under due protection of the law each side can present
to the entire global community its repute and its grievances?
What do we get instead?
Germany has increased it political telephone surveillance 27.5%, compared
to last year. It has just raided the private home of the parents of the
wife of young scientist Rudolf Germar, now in exile - he of the scientifically
impeccable Rudolf Report - so as to find him, arrest him, abuse him, and
throw him in prison for saying: "Look! Look at the SCIENTIFIC evidence!"

Thought for the Day:
"The many evangelical Christians who believe that the tiny state of "Israel" in the Middle East was established by the providential miracles of God are going to be completely surprised at what will come to pass - unless, of course, they change their views in the meantime."
