Ernst Zundel is, in my view, the greatest dissident of our time.
I’d read about Ernst and I’d written about him, but it was only two years ago that I met him. He was soft-spoken, kind and gentle but every so often you could see the flash of steel. He’d just been released from prison and was engaged in rebuilding his ancestral home. It’s a peasant’s house in the Black Forest, in the heart of Germany – and it had housed his woodcutter father, his large family and the young Ernst.
Never have I seen an edifice so rooted in the land. Like Ernst himself, it seemed to grow out of the soil.
In this documentary, you will meet an entirely different Ernst Zündel — not the “hate-spewing” firebrand a poisonous mainstream media has painted him to be, but the sensitive, creative artist who spent one-tenth of his life incarcerated for his outspoken political convictions on behalf of his demonized people — and still retained his extraordinary spirit of defiance.”

Beautiful video and very affecting. He is a remarkable man.
But that aside…
I was having dinner the other night with Abe. We go way back. And he says to me, “Ari,” ’cause that’s what he calls me, he says, “Ari, I appreciate your reports on those filthy anti-semitic sites you keep an eye on for us, so tell me one thing: do you think the limey self-haters are worse than ours?”
I says, “Foxy,” ’cause that’s what I call him, I says, “there sure are a few that bear watching, like this Paul Eisen. He’s all “Oy, Der Yassin!” which in itself is not the end of the world: it’s water under the bridge, everyone knows mistakes were made and they were unavoidable mistakes. Like you know said, ‘Who remebers the little Turkish with the Armenians?’
But this Eisen doesn’t stop there, doesn’t let up. He is a Nazi lover, Foxy, and he has nothing sacred.” At this point I wanted to give him the links, cause I like to document my reports, but my computer was down and I couldn’t give him these links:

“Ari,” he says, “you want I should do something about it? I have Friends of Israel friends I can call.”
“No, Foxy,” I says, “no need; he is watched. He is on the List.”
But my computer was down and I couldn’t give him the link to the List:

“There is also a very bright local guy, they call him greenie, sharp as a bris knife. Saw his site. What a kopf! Let them watch him. I know how busy you are. I saw a video clip of ADL and watched your switchboard operator take two or even three complaint calls during the short two weeks of the filming from distressed Jews who had overheard their Gentile next door neighbours use the word “Jews.”
“Yeah, Ari, anti-semitism is on the rise, no doubt about it. I’m flying to Japan tomorrow to give a talk about it.”

The Left likes to rally around “political prisoners”. Somehow they missed Zundel — wonder why.

The politically incorrect six million
Alexandr Solzhenitsyn had this to say of the Soviet system which was deemed worthy of recognition as one of ‘our’ Allies fighting for ‘Democracy’, ‘against the Dictators’ in WW2:
“This was a system which, in time of peace, artificially created a famine causing SIX MILLION PERSONS to die in the Ukraine between 1932 and 1933. SIX MILLION PERSONS!”
(Alexander Solzhenitsyn Speaks to the West (1978) p16)
FDRoosevelt’s ally Stalin was the supreme dictator of Russia for almost a quarter of a century, 1929-1953.
Stalin’s first Five-Year Plan (1928-32) sought the ‘collectivization of agriculture’ through the ‘abolition of property in land’ put forward in (Jewish) Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto. Before the Revolution millions of independent peasant farmers, or kulaks, had their own individual plots.
When Communism was imposed on Russia, the kulaks as private property owners stood in the way. In 1929 Stalin called for their ‘liquidation’, and their small family farms, animals, implements and crops were declared to belong to the state.
“The (Jewish) communist leaders Trotsky, Zinoviev and Kamenev had always argued that the peasant would never surrender enough food voluntarily, and must be coerced and, if need be, crushed” (*Paul Johnson A History of the Modern World p268).
The Red Army and GPU were used to implement the policy. Many thousands of peasants who resisted were killed or sent to the frozen north or the desert steppes. Rather than give up their animals to the collective farms, the peasants killed and ate them. As a result, the number of farm animals in the Soviet Union was catastrophically reduced.
The peasants stopped farming on ground that suddenly no longer belonged to them. Food production declined drastically and cities started running out of food. Orders were given for grain to be confiscated from the peasants, whether they had sufficient for themselves and their families or not. Those caught trying to reserve food for their families were ‘severely dealt with’. By the winter of 1932-3, virtually no food was left in the countryside. By early March 1933, ‘death on a mass scale really began’ (R Conquest, The Harvest of Sorrow (1986) p243). The main farming areas of Russia, in the regions of the Ukraine and North Caucasus, were devastated. Millions of people were forced to eat anything that was available. It was a time of terrible hunger, a catastrophic famine.
Eugene Lyons was sent to Russia in 1928 as chief correspondent for United Press. He described the famine in his book Assignment in Utopia (1937):
“Hell broke loose in seventy thousand Russian villages.. A population as large as all of Switzerland’s or Denmark’s was stripped clean of all their belongings.. They were herded with bayonets at railroad stations, packed indiscriminately into cattle and freight cars and dumped weeks later in the lumber regions of the frozen North, the deserts of central Asia, wherever labor was needed, there to live or die..”. The famine alone is estimated conservatively to have been responsible for 6 million deaths, almost half of them children (Conquest, p 303-4). Other millions died from the killings and sickness as a result of the deportations (*p 304-7).
Lyons, himself Jewish, credits the Jewish commissar Lazar Kaganovich with the major portion of responsibility for this major crime against humanity:
“Lazar Kaganovich… it was his mind that invented the Political Departments to lead collectivized agriculture, his iron hand that applied Bolshevik mercilessness.” (*Lyons, p 578). The Encycl. Brit. says tersely, “(Kaganovich) was one of the small group of Stalin’s top advisors pushing for very high rates of collectivization after 1929.. Within the Politburo, Kaganovich.. led the opposition to Kirov’s proposed concessions to the peasantry and to his attempts to relax the harshness of Stalin’s control..” Kaganovich died at the ripe old age of 98 in 1991 – ethnically safe from pursuit by the Israeli secret service, the Simon Wiesenthal organization and the New York media-intelligentsia.

It’s now official – there’s been no actual shortage of Holocaust Survivors :
Quote from The Holocaust Industry by Norman G. Finkelstein of the City University of New York, published by Verso in the year 2000:
‘The Israeli Prime Minister’s office recently put the number of “living Holocaust survivors” at nearly a million.’ (page 83)
I’ve checked out the six volumes of Churchill’s Second World War and the statement is quite correct – not a single mention of Nazi ‘gas chambers,’ a ‘genocide’ of the Jews, or of ‘six million’ Jewish victims of the war.
Eisenhower’s Crusade in Europe is a book of 559 pages; Churchill’s Second World War totals 4,448 pages; and De Gaulle’s three-volume Mémoires de guerre is 2,054 pages.
In this mass of writing, which altogether totals 7,061 pages (not including the introductory parts), published from 1948 to 1959, one will find no mention either of Nazi ‘gas chambers,’ a ‘genocide’ of the Jews, or of ‘six million’ Jewish victims of the war.

The Number Of Holocaust Survivors
From Barrington James
11-23-7
Dear Sir –
In this brief note I will describe a mathematical method that I have used to determine the number of holocaust survivors who were alive immediately after the war in 1945.
My calculations are totally based on mathematics and a report of Professor Sergio Dellapergola, Head, Division of Jewish Demography and Statistics of the A. Harmen Institute of the Contemporary Jewry, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
In his report, Professor Dellapergola informs us of two major facts according to his study:
1. the number of Jewish holocaust survivors alive World Wide in 2003 was 1,092,000, and
2. a table that gives us the number of holocaust survivors in Israel who are alive, or expected to be alive, in the years from 2002 to 2020.
I entered his data from the table in my calculator and I used second degree regression analysis. I found the number of Jewish survivors living in Israel in 2003, to have come originally from a 1945.5 group of survivors, numbered
1,586,300.
I then used this number, the number of known world wide survivors, and the number of survivors alive in Israel in 2003 and a simple ratio to calculate the total number of holocaust survivors (alive) in 1945.
I thus created two equal fractions, a ratio: the number of holocaust survivors alive living in Israel in 2003 over the number of these soon to be Israeli survivors who were alive in 1945 = to the number of total holocaust survivors alive world wide in 2003 over the total number of holocaust survivors alive in 1945.
I used the Professor’s numbers and this new ratio 265,000/1,586,300=1,092,000/x, where x is the total number of holocaust survivors alive in 1945, to find x.
I found the total number of holocaust survivors alive in 1945.5, x, to be about 6,540,000.
I think this number will surprise some people who have been trained to believe that the Nazis killed almost every Jew in Europe except for the relatively few who escaped to Israel.

” ‘Scuse Me.. ”
Extract from Sir Reginald Paget’s book Manstein: His Campaign and His Trial (Collins, 1951), page 109 :
the (US) Simpson Inquiry Commission “reported among other things that of the 139 (German) cases they had investigated, 137 had had their testicles permanently destroyed by kicks received from the American War Crimes Investigating Team.”

WW2 Allied vs German bombing philosophies compared
One way of comparing the British and American philosophies concerning their attacks (primarily on civilian targets, using incendiaries to burn people alive, including women and children) on German cities with the quintessentially-evil Nazi tactics is to compare the nature of bomber designs by the Allies and those of the Germans. The maximum bomb loads and number of engines make an interesting and revealing comparison.
Bomber name – Max bomb load (No. of engines)
WW2 German bombers
Dornier Do.215 – 2,200lbs (2)
Heinkel He.111 – 4,400lbs (2)
Junkers Ju.88 – 4,190lbs (2)
WW2 British bombers
Avro Lancaster – 22,000lbs (4)
HandleyPage Halifax – 13,000lbs (4)
Short Stirling – 14,000lbs (4)
WW2 American bombers
Boeing Flying Fortress – 9,600lbs (4)
Consolidated Liberator – 12,800lbs (4)
Being Superfortress – 20,000lbs (4)

WINSTON CHURCHILL in July 1940 – ‘extermination’ :
“When I look around to see how we can win the war I see that there is only one sure path. We have no Continental army which can defeat the German military power.. Should [Hitler].. not try invasion [of Britain].. there is one thing that will bring him back and bring him down, and that is an absolutely devastating, exterminating attack by very heavy bombers from this country upon the Nazi homeland. We must be able to overwhelm them by this means, without which I do not see a way through. We cannot accept any aim lower than air mastery. When can it be obtained?” [Extract from Winston S Churchill The Second World War (Volume 2 Their Finest Hour Appendix A), Memo from Prime Minister to Minister of Aircraft Production, 8.July 1940].
ADOLF HITLER in May 1940 – ‘admiration’ :
Britain and France declared war on Germany, not the other way around. Hitler actually wanted peace with Britain, as the German generals admitted (Basil Liddell Hart, The Other Side of the Hill 1948, Pan Books 1983) with regard to the so-called Halt Order of 24 May 1940 at Dunkirk, where Hitler had the opportunity to capture the entire British Army, but chose not to. Liddell Hart, one of Britain’s most respected military historians, quotes the German General von Blumentritt with regard to this Halt Order:
“He (Hitler) then astonished us by speaking with admiration of the British Empire, of the necessity for its existence, and of the civilization that Britain had brought into the world. He remarked, with a shrug of the shoulders, that the creation of its Empire had been achieved by means that were often harsh, but ‘where there is planing, there are shavings flying’. He compared the British Empire with the Catholic Church saying they were both essential elements of stability in the world. He said that all he wanted from Britain was that she should acknowledge Germany’s position on the Continent. The return of Germany’s colonies would be desirable but not essential, and he would even offer to support Britain with troops if she should be involved in difficulties anywhere..” (p 200).
According to Liddell Hart, “At the time we believed that the repulse of the Luftwaffe in the ‘Battle over Britain’ had saved her. That is only part of the explanation, the last part of it. The original cause, which goes much deeper, is that Hitler did not want to conquer England. He took little interest in the invasion preparations, and for weeks did nothing to spur them on; then, after a brief impulse to invade, he veered around again and suspended the preparations. He was preparing, instead, to invade Russia” (p140).
David Irving in the foreword to his book The Warpath (1978) refers to “the discovery.. that at no time did this man (Hitler) pose or intend a real threat to Britain or the Empire.”
Hitler saw the tremendous danger posed to Germany by Communism. He appreciated the desperate need to eliminate this threat, a fact that earned him the immense hatred and animosity of the Jewish organisations and the media and politicians of the west which they could influence. After all, according to the Jewish writer Chaim Bermant, although Jews formed less than five percent of Russia’s population, they formed more than fifty percent of its revolutionaries.
Bermant in his book The Jews (1977, chapter 8):
‘It must be added that most of the leading revolutionaries who convulsed Europe in the final decades of the last century and the first decades of this one, stemmed from prosperous Jewish families.. They were perhaps typified by the father of revolution, Karl Marx.. Thus when, after the chaos of World War I, revolutions broke out all over Europe, Jews were everywhere at the helm; Trotsky, Sverdlov, Kamenev and Zinoviev in Russia, Bela Kun in Hungary, Kurt Eisner in Bavaria, and, most improbable of all, Rosa Luxemburg in Berlin.
‘To many outside observers, the Russian revolution looked like a Jewish conspiracy, especially when it was followed by Jewish-led revolutionary outbreaks in much of central Europe. The leadership of the Bolshevik Party had a preponderance of Jews.. Of the seven members of the Politburo, the inner cabinet of the country, four, Trotsky (Bronstein), Zinoviev (Radomsky), Kamenev (Rosenfeld) and Sverdlov, were Jews.’
Other authors agree with this:
“There has been a tendency to circumvent or simply ignore the significant role of Jewish intellectuals in the German Communist Party, and thereby seriously neglect one of the genuine and objective reasons for increased anti-Semitism during and after World War 1.. The prominence of Jews in the revolution and early Weimar Republic is indisputable, and this was a very serious contributing cause for increased anti-Semitism in post-war years.. It is clear then that the stereotype of Jews as socialists and communists.. led many Germans to distrust the Jewish minority as a whole and to brand Jews as enemies of the German nation.” (Sarah Gordon Hitler, Germans and the ‘Jewish Question’ Princeton University Press (1984) p 23).
“The second paroxysm of strong anti-Semitism came after the critical role of Jews in International Communism and the Russian Revolution and during the economic crises of the 1920s and 30s Anti-Semitism intensified throughout Europe and North America following the perceived and actual centrality of Jews in the Russian Revolution.. Such feelings were not restricted to Germany, or to vulgar extremists like the Nazis. All over Northern Europe and North America, anti-Semitism became the norm in ‘nice society’, and ‘nice society’ included the universities.” (Martin Bernal, Black Athena vol. 1 pp. 367, 387).
“The major role Jewish leaders played in the November (Russian) revolution was probably more important than any other factor in confirming (Hitler’s) anti-Semitic beliefs.” (J&S Pool, Who Financed Hitler, p.164).
