JEWISH community leaders are investigating whether Holocaust revisionist Dr Fredrick Toben has breached a court order instructing him to remove any material from his website which suggests that the Holocaust did not occur.

At the time of going to press, the front page of Dr Toben’s Adelaide Institute website stated: “Why are we forced to believe in the 'Holocaust’? I don’t want to believe in the 'Holocaust’! Why is it a crime not to believe in the 'Holocaust’? Why is it a crime to say the 'Holocaust’ never happened?”

In a landmark decision last July, the Federal Court ordered Dr Toben to delete any material suggesting that the Holocaust did not take place and that there were no gas chambers at Auschwitz.

It also ordered him to remove material which was likely to “offend, insult, humiliate and intimidate” Australian Jews and not to republish it.

The case was brought by the Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ).

Weighing up how to respond to the latest inclusions on the website, the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies and ECAJ are considering “whether it amounts to a breach of the orders already made”, or whether “separate proceedings” should be instituted, board president and senior counsel Stephen Rothman said this week.

  

 

 

Töben responds:

 

 

Is asking questions a crime for some?

 

Is making statements that incite hatred against Germans for some an Unquestionable RIGHT?

 

For example any 'Holocaust' statement made is a direct attack on Germans because it alleges that Germans were responsible for

 

1. the death of six million Jews

2. used homicidal gas chambers to exterminate Jews, and

3. Hitler ordered a German national policy that Jews be exterminated - solely for Jews being Jews.

 

I am not permitted to discuss these matter because I have a gag order from the Federal Court of Australia that prevents me from detailing my views, but anyone else is permitted to state that Germans did all those things.

 

Natural Justice, where art thou in this moment of my distress when Stephen Rothman again needs a sacrifice and possibly seeks his pound of flesh!

 

 

Auschwitz ashes to be buried in Melbourne

ASHES recovered from one of the Holocaust’s worst killing fields on behalf of Melbourne’s Jewish Holocaust Museum and Research Centre in the late 1980s will finally be “laid to rest” next month at Springvale cemetery.

Actress Ann Morell, now Morell-Crawford, and her husband Glen Crawford, originally from Melbourne, brought the Auschwitz ashes, now contained in a small rectangular box, back to Melbourne at the request of the museum’s inaugural president, the late Aron Sokolowicz.

The couple had visited the Elsternwick museum to obtain contacts for a documentary they were planning to make on Polish children’s writer Janusz Korczak — who ran an orphanage for 200 Jewish children in the Warsaw Ghetto before they subsequently perished in Treblinka — when Sokolowicz handed them a letter requesting the ashes.

According to a report in the Sunday Age last week, Morell-Crawford and her husband carefully hid the box of ashes in their luggage and undertook an arduous journey through Europe and back to Australia.

“At that time, when the Berlin Wall was up and Eastern Europe was under communism, the border guards regarded any westerner with paranoia,” Morell-Crawford told the Sunday Age. “Believing something as sensitive and precious as the ashes would be confiscated, buried under miles of red tape or we would be detained, we smuggled them over various checkpoints.”
