Revisionist David Irving: Thought Criminal
by Charles Coughlin
David Irving continues to suffer imprisonment in Austria because he dared to defend the honor of the German people by speaking the truth. A CBC news article reports “Austrian prosecutors want British historian David Irving to spend more time in prison, saying his three-year sentence for denying the Holocaust is too lenient. Irving could have been sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty on Monday to charges of denying the Holocaust. Under Austrian law, it is a crime to publicly diminish, deny or justify the Holocaust… Irving, who has written close to 30 books, was arrested in November 1989 after he denied in speeches in Austria that the Nazis killed six million Jews. He had contended most of the Jews who died during the war succumbed to diseases such as typhus. Austria’s Justice Ministry says there were 158 convictions between 1999 and 2004.
Mr. Irving has pursued historical truth all his life. He has written a series of best-selling books about World War Two. Despite his long-standing record as a great historical writer, he has been treated as a common criminal because he chose to examine the Holocaust. Mr. Irving poses no threat to anyone and locking him up is an outrageous act of political oppression. Considering that Mr. Irving is 68 years old, a jail sentence could easily prove fatal. The Austrian authorities could have deported him to England, but it seems some hidden hand wanted a more severe punishment. So this idealistic old man was sent to prison to appease hateful elements who want to suppress historical truth.
Irving joins a growing list of thought criminals who have been imprisoned for questioning the Holocaust. Germar Rudolph, who graduated from the Max Planck Institute with a degree in chemistry, tested bricks in the alleged gas chambers at Auschwitz only to find that there was no trace of poison gas. Because he published his findings, which undermined the Holocaust, the government of Germany declared him a criminal. Rudolph tried to apply for political asylum in the US, but Zionist pressure prevented this legitimate victim of persecution from getting sanctuary. Another Revisionist, Ernst Zundel, who had published literature that questioned the Holocaust, was being hounded by the Canadian government. Zundel married an American woman and was in the process of becoming a US citizen when Zionists applied pressure and got him deported to Germany to be sent to prison for exercising his free speech.
The government of Austria has decided that the “feelings” of Jewish citizens are so important that any questioning of the Holocaust, which might suggest millions of Jews were not murdered by Germans during World War Two should be outlawed. This raises the question: Why do Jews want to believe that they were mass-murdered? If there is strong historical evidence, which has been suppressed for decades, that suggests there was no organized effort to mass murder Jews, why would the Jews so stubbornly refuse to consider it? In modern society, there is a certain “holiness” that derives from victimhood. By claiming that they are the biggest victims of all time, the Jews bestow upon themselves an immunity from criticism.
While Jews are protected from criticism by law in some nations, homosexual “artists” can photograph a crucifix in a tub of urine, calling that “art.” The feelings of Christians are not considered “important” enough to be protected by law. Why is it OK to accuse Germans of mass murdering civilians without allowing anyone to defend the honor of the German people? The Nuremberg “Trial” was nothing more than a show trial. Defendants were tortured into signing confessions. Joseph Stalin used the same judge at Nuremberg, who ordered the executions of countless officials, whom Stalin distrusted, during the purge trials of the 1930s. The Germans had never been properly defended against these charges of mass murder until historians like David Irving came forward to speak the truth.
Prior to the Holocaust, many Western politicians were allowed to talk freely about the Jews. Many American politicians wanted to strictly limit the immigration of Jews into America. They considered the Jews an alien race prone to usury, dishonest business practices, insider trading and corrupting the political process. (Side note: Orthodox Jew, Jack Abramoff, has recently been found guilty in possibly the most widespread political bribery scandal in history and our Congress has been described as under the thumb of the Israeli Lobby.)
The Holocaust provides blanket protection against criticism for Jews and the nation of Israel. Anyone who points out the dishonest neocon Zionist cabal surrounding Bush, who lied us into war, is quickly called a “Nazi” with the implication that he wants to push Jews into gas chambers. Meanwhile Zionist liars have murdered innocent people using the US military. Most recently, the nation of Israel has waged a war of aggression against Lebanon and Gaza. American politicians have proven themselves shamefully spineless in the face of this wanton aggression. Once again, the truth cannot be spoken because of the Holocaust. It is not just an historical inaccuracy; it is a license to kill for Zionists. This is why there is such fanatic resistance to any critical examination of the Holocaust.
