A moving and remarkable testimony by Ernst Z\u00fcndel<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Our friend Joe Fallisi has struck again! Thanks to him I\u2019ve just discovered a remarkable video recorded interview given in English by Ernst Z\u00fcndel to a black female high school student in the late 1990s. This video, Students, the Holocaust and Free Speech<\/strong> (running time 1h 23min), was completely unknown to me. It is remarkably limpid, instructive and unsettling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It deals in particular with the two major trials that Z\u00fcndel had to face in Canada in 1985 (lasting seven weeks) and in 1988<\/a> (lasting over four months). Both times, in spite of a dazzling defence that routed the prosecution, he lost and received a prison sentence. Suddenly, on August 27, 1992, a miracle happened: the Supreme Court of Canada ruled<\/a> that the law under which the convictions had been decided (a law pertaining to the publication of \u201ca statement, tale or news that [its publisher] knows is false\u201d) was unconstitutional in that it infringed the guarantee of freedom of expression contained in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list of horrors and persecutions endured by Z\u00fcndel was, already at that time in his life, impressive. However, he was never granted any of the compensation to which he seemed to be entitled as of August 27, 1992. On the contrary, following certain revolting machinations by his opponents he was, in 1998, to find himself in a new court, a quite \u201cspecial\u201d one, made up of a judge and a judgess and no jury. Furthermore, the two judges of this \u201cHuman Rights Tribunal<\/a>\u201d had been recruited according to their \u201csensitivity\u201d with respect to anti-semitism! Of course the accused was easily convicted once again. As for the final years of Z\u00fcndel\u2019s existence, they were to turn into a nightmare, with Canada, the United States and Germany combining their efforts to inflict the very worst on him. He died in Germany on August 5, 2017, without ever having been able to return to the United States and rejoin his wife, Ingrid Rimland-Z\u00fcndel who, in turn, died on October 25 of the same year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
