As I am picking my way through my mail that piled up on me during my 10-day absence, I realize that some of my ZGrams have been garbled or somehow corrupted during transmission. I am sorry about that - but will try hard to post all of them today on the Zundelsite where you can download them tomorrow or shortly thereafter.
Meanwhile, word came late yesterday about the five year sentence of Pedro Varela, a courageous Spaniard Revisionist. Varela is quite a hero to many European nationalists because he is handsome, elegant, eloquent, principled - and young! I predict the Holocaust Lobby has created itself a formidable martyr for ***our*** point of view!
We will hear more from European nationalists about martyring Pedro Varela!
In the meantime, Zundel biographer Michael Hoffman II, a grassroots activist in Idaho, is taking to the streets again with his fistfuls of flyers.
Here is Mike's latest Hoffman Wire blast:
"As I prepare to protest the policies of the Anti-Defamation League by picketing its regional Seattle director who will be feted at a luncheon at the Coeur d'Alene Resort at noon in Idaho today, David Irving reports that Spanish revisionist publisher Pedro Varela has been sentenced to five years in jail. Spanish police raided Varela's Barcelona bookstore and publishing firm last year and seized thousands of books.
Under Spain's new draconian laws for the suppression of free speech, Varela is guilty of some sort of "mental genocide," of which Daniel Goldhagen of Harvard, the bigot who has written a book arguing that the German people carry a gene for genocide, is allegedly innocent.
Whenever I learn of such repression against foreign revisionists, I grow angry at the molasses-in-January torpor of American revisionists with their almost exclusive reliance on the Internet as their main activist outlet when we have a First Amendment which affords us a constant presence in the streets if we but had the courage and vision to apply it.
I will be in the streets in front of the gleaming, multi-million dollar Coeur d'Alene resort on the shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene today to upset the smug complacency of the local politicians and professional "human rights" inquisitors who are intent on a seamless exercise in smug complacency as they accept an "award" from the ADL.
Here is the leaflet we will be disseminating as we picket:
ADL DISHONORS COEUR D'ALENE
The ADL is "...one of the ugliest, most powerful pressure groups in the U.S...Its primary commitment is to use any technique, however dishonest and disgraceful, in order to defame and silence and destroy anybody who dares to criticize the Holy State ("Israel")."
--Noam Chomsky, Professor of Linguistics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith (ADL) is giving an award today to the city of Coeur d'Alene. City Fathers assume this is something to be proud of and have unthinkingly rolled out the red carpet for the ADL.
They think that an imprimatur from the ADL, a prominent Jewish group with a multi-million dollar budget and substantial media clout, is a kind of certification of our area's goodness. But in point of fact, hosting the ADL and its regional Seattle director at the Coeur d'Alene Resort is a shameful blot on our region.
The ADL is a branch of the masonic B'nai B'rith (Sons of the Covenant), which was established Oct. 13, 1843.
The chief "fact-finder"(head spy) for the ADL is Irwin Suall. From 1957 through 1962, Mr. Suall was national secretary of the Socialist Party. (1)
The ADL keeps extensive espionage files on those who are critical of Israeli policies. Last year the ADL attempted to blackmail Benjamin Chavis, leader of the NAACP, with some of those files. (2)
The ADL spies on American dissidents on behalf of the Israeli government. Automobile license plate numbers of people attending a meeting of the Committee on the Middle East were recorded by ADL agent Roy Bullock, channeled through San Francisco police officer Tom Gerard, also an ADL operative, and furnished to the Israeli government. (3)
The ADL claims that it has the right to "investigate"dissidents and "probe into their private lives."When asked in court, "Does that mean anyone who participates in a political rally can be the subject of an in-depth investigation?"ADL attorney Stephen Bomse responded in the affirmative. (4).
In 1996 the ADL praised the prison sentence meted out to an American publisher in Germany: "ADL today said it was gratified that a German court sentenced American...Gary Lauck to four years in prison for...disseminating anti-Semitic...hate material."(5)
In January of 1998, ADL Director Abraham Foxman ordered Metropolitan Books to halt publication of "A Nation on Trial: The Goldhagen Thesis and Historical Truth", a book which exposed fraud perpetrated by anti-German bigot Daniel Goldhagen. (6)
Earlier in November of this year, ADL Director Foxman was at it again, this time ordering the media to ban Minister Louis Farrakhan from the airwaves. Foxman's demand can be summarized as, "Keep Farrakhan off all the television networks!"(7)
The ADL is currently being sued for having illegally disclosed confidential information about hundreds of critics of the Israelis. ADL files seized by prosecutors revealed that the ADL used a former CIA operative to illegally obtain the Social Security numbers of activists critical of the Israeli government. (8)
The ADL "runs a nationwide surveillance operation on political groups with the assistance of other law enforcement officials...The ADL spied on political groups in the US and this information allegedly made its way to Israeli security authorities."(9)
On Aug. 2, 1994 seventy-five Jewish-Americans accused the ADL of "engaging in defamation"in the ADL's attacks on Christian conservatives. (10)
The seventy-five stated that the ADL uses "such discreditable techniques as insinuation and guilt by association"to compile its secret files on dissenters. (11).
On Aug. 9, 1994 Houston attorney Gary Polland compiled an analysis of an ADL attack on Christians. "Among other things, the analysis demonstrates that ...(ADL Director) Foxman lied..."(12)
Syndicated columnist Mona Charen wrote: "...there is the crude, but undeniable fact that the ADL is in the anti-Semitism business...It is playing upon ancient fears...and it is doing so dishonestly, with quotes taken out of context and flagrantly false accusations."(13)
In 1987 the B'nai B'rith of Canada was ordered to pay
400,000 for defaming a Winnipeg woman. (14).
On March 14, 1996 the B'nai B'rith called a press conference in Toronto urging the government to arrest revisionist publisher Ernst Zündel for printing pamphlets the Zionist group abhors. (15)
Journalist Robert I. Friedman says the ADL is the largest private spy agency in America...working behind the scenes to stifle intellectual freedom."[16]
When the U.S. government keeps a file on a citizen that individual can pursue a Freedom of Information inquiry to ascertain the contents and accuracy of the government dossier.
But in the case of the secret files of the ADL which the group shares with U.S. Intelligence and the Israeli secret police (Mossad), the citizen has no recourse whatever.
If an anti-Communist, right wing group were to engage in such massive domestic spying our local press and politicians would thunder anathemas against this "new McCarthyism." But when a totalitarian Zionist organization engages in such tactics they are given the key to the city of Coeur d'Alene.
What can these prevaricating ADL thought cops with their Stalinist tactics offer North Idaho? Why must our civic leaders seek the approbation of so loathsome a group of snoops, censors, haters and tyrants?"

Thought for the Day:
"We bludgeoned them and bludgeoned them and bludgeoned them, but at what price?"
(Abe Foxman, head of the ADL, speaking of the "Nazi Gold" extortion of Switzerland, as quoted in Forward, September 4, 1998)
