In 1990, thanks to a formidable undertaking organised as he knows how, our cause achieved a particularly fine victory: the elimination from the plaques at Auschwitz of the figure of four million dead,replaced later by that of a million and a half.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And it is above all he who, in the manner of anorchestral conductor, masterfully coordinated his two trials in Toronto (1985 and 1988), bringing revisionists and opponents of revisionism from all over the world there,especially in the 1985 trial, in order finally to organise a courtroom\u00a0confrontation between the two camps (needless to say, when subjected to the inflexible cross-examination of barrister Douglas Christie, advised by Professor Faurisson, the opponents bit the dust so hard that a man like, for instance, Raul Hilberg, the \u201cPope of exterminationism\u201d, would refuse to return for the 1988 trial!). We think anyone wishing to be informed about revisionism should begin by reading Michael Hoffman\u2019s<strong><em>The Great Holocaust Trial<\/em><\/strong>, published by Independent History &amp; Research<\/p>\n<p>(<a href=\"https:\/\/revisionisthistorystore.blogspot.it\/2010\/03\/michael-hoffmans-online-revisionist.html\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=https:\/\/revisionisthistorystore.blogspot.it\/2010\/03\/michael-hoffmans-online-revisionist.html&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1501657585699000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHHdC0qdJW4AL2K_jA7H4xpG33www\">https:\/\/revisionisthistorystore.blogspot.it\/2010\/03\/michael-hoffmans-online-revisionist.html<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Therefore an end had to be put to Ernst Z\u00fcndel\u2019sexuberant and iconoclastic activity and it was on February 5, 2003 that this \u201chero\u201d (the word is Professor Faurisson\u2019s) was literally abducted at his Tennessee home; from that date, i.e. for the past 14 years, this manwas to find himself gagged, completelyunable to express himself on the subject thatwas his life\u2019s work: to cleanse Germany, his country of origin, of the false accusations by which she is overwhelmed. After 7 years in prison, amongst which 2 in Canada in conditions close to torture and the rest in Germany, he would have to pass a probationperiod of 3 years, but the 10 years of silence were not to stop there: in order to maximise his chances of obtaining the right to return to his house in Tennessee, he would carry onmaintaining anear-complete silence for 4 years&#8230; and our readers will indeed have noted that at our end wedidour best to respect that silence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Alas, on March 31of this year the dreaded final decision was issued: while the door stays open to so many migrants, the United States, through the voice of a certain Ron Rosenberg, chief of the Administrative Appeals Officeof the US Citizen and Immigration Services, which acts by delegation\u00a0of theDepartment of Homeland Security, refusedthe eminent revisionist entry to its territory for all time, thus forbidding him foreverfrom returning to his own home there,beside his wife! However, the law is clear: a person convicted abroad who seeks entry to the United States is to be barred only if the conducthaving led to conviction is \u201cdeemed criminal by United States standards\u201d; but \u201cdenying the Holocaust and expressing anti-Semitic sentiments [which in fact E.

I have read and reread that US ruling by Ron Rosenberg and am ever more disgusted.<br \/>\nI am so disgusted by this hypocritical charade that I find it nearly impossible to force myself to write something about it!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So here goes:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I had engaged a top immigration lawyer with over thirty years of practicalexperience with immigration law in the USA. This lawyer handled my casefrom the beginning!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I followed all his advice and US rules and regulations to the letter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>All things progressed well, I already lived with my wife in the USA at our own property, running our publishing business; I had been granted a work permit, a social\u00a0security number, had a comprehensive health check-up, including x-rays, aids test,in short, I was fingerprinted by the FBI, even interrogated by a special agent of theFBI, passing all tests required, with flying colours. There was only one more visit to be undertaken with an immigration official beforeI would be granted permanent residence and could live and work in the USAfor the rest of my life!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We were able to obtain my FBI file after my arrest and deportation!The special agent of the FBI, called Scott Nowinski, recommended to his headquartersthat they close the Z\u00fcndel file, assuming that I would be given residency status!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ingrid and I carried on with our lives, being reassured by the attorneys that all<br \/>\nwas only a matter of time and routine!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We were totally taken by surprise, when out of the clear blue sky I wasarrestedduring\u00a0a workday without warning, while framing paintings for my soon to be opened art gallery!\u00a0The US officials did not allow me to call my attorney, and they did not have an Arrest Warrant!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instead they claimed that I had overstayed my visa, an obvious and blatant concocted lie, their cover story! In order to deport me from the USA.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Due to this deportation, which came after the events of 9\/11 (the attacks onthe World Trade Center\u00a0and the Pentagon),I was imprisoned in Canada, todetermine my status for two years! Then I was declared a security threat to the nation of Canada, where I had lived peacefully and productively for 42 years, and was declared\u00a0<em>persona non grata<\/em>\u00a0by Canada.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was deported to Germany, arrested on the steps of the plane which had flown meacross the ocean in handcuffs from Canada and immediately imprisoned in Mannheim!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There I was tried in Court for my writings and broadcasts done in the USA, whichwere perfectly legal in America.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After a lengthy and grotesque trial in Mannheim I was convicted and sentenced to the maximum term of five years under Germany\u2019s controversial holocaust-related post war laws!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I lost all appeals, served every minute of the five-year sentence, plus another three\u00a0years of \u201cprobation\u201d, and was finally released on March 1, 2010!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We, my wife Ingrid and I, fought in the US courts for 14 years, trying to return to the USA. Virtually always lost, also lost all appeals.We spent untoldsums on legal fees and court proceedings!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The end result is the ruling by Homeland Security, signed by one Ron Rosenberg, which follows! There is also a critical review of this decision, by a US law professor from Los Angeles University by the name of Volkovh (?),whichclarifies matters somewhat!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Z\u00fcndel case reveals a great deal about the state of justice and human rights\u00a0in America today!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There is a vast gap in the USA between their \u201creality\u201d and American propaganda!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>* * *<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ernst Z\u00fcndel continues to describe himself as unvanquished and defiant,and he will not bend!<\/p>\n<p>____________________<\/p>\n<p>Colour photo above: Ernst Z\u00fcndel, in Toronto in the 1980s, displaying before Robert Faurisson, Fred Leuchter, Robert Miller and DitliebFelderer the building plans of the five Auschwitz and Birkenau crematoria, discovered by R.
