Zundel sentenced to five years

A court in Mannheim, Germany today sentenced Holocaust revisionist Ernst Zundel to five years in prison on 14 counts of thought crimes. Zundel has already been in custody for more than two years, first in the U.S., then in Canada, and -- since March 2005 -- in Germany. As in the U.S. and Canada, the German judge sentenced Zundel on the pretext that he is a threat to national and international security. In other words, the security of every nation on the planet is based on a hoax; revelations about this hoax through freedom of speech and thought will destroy that security and presumably lead to bloodshed and destruction of the world as we know it.

If this is true, how safe can any of us be? Each of us walks a thin line: On one hand, we too might be adjudged to be a threat to international security and jailed. On the other hand, our security is guaranteed only by continued lies -- any truth might result in our destruction.

Ernst Zundel charged in Germany

Ernst Zundel appeared in a German court today for his arraignment on the charge of denying the Holocaust. Denying the Holocaust is a criminal offense in Germany. If Zundel is found guilty of inciting hatred, he could face up to five years in jail. Last week, politically-correct Canadian Federal Court Justice Pierre Blais created the pretext for deporting Zundel by ruling that Zundel had links to neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups. "Mr. Zundel's activities are not only a threat to Canada's national security but also a threat to the international community of nations," Blais said in justifying his improper ruling.

Canadian authorities deport Zundel to Germany

Canada Tuesday deported Holocaust denier and former Tennessee resident Ernst Zundel to his native Germany. Once there, he is expected to be arrested on charges of inciting hatred via the Internet. German officials have said he would be arrested for decades of anti-Semitic activities, including repeated denials of the Holocaust, which is a crime in Germany.

Ernst Zundel set for deportation to Germany

Ernst Zundel has abandoned his fight to stay in Canada and is slated to be deported to Germany as early as Tuesday, his lawyer said yesterday. In a bitter denunciation of the Canadian legal system, lawyer Peter Lindsay said there was no point in trying to remedy the "horrible unfairness" to which Zundel had been subjected.

Zundel citations

We've added a file that has been around for awhile, but somehow never made it to the Web: a listing of media mentions of Ernst Zündel, who has been persecuted in Canada for more than ten years for his views on the Holocaust. Arranged by date, this is an invaluable reference for anyone studying the Zündel's case, or the methods of censorship used by anti-revisionists.
