Subject: Patriot Letter: Passion # 1 $213.9 million -- Berlin
Holocaust Hall -- Dr. Countess Day -- Your Turn
Dear Fellow Patriot!
For the second week, Mel Gibson's Passion is the
number 1 movie at the box office. It depends on what
paper you are reading, it's anywhere from $200 to $300
million so far. Of course, that doesn't include all of
the Passion paraphernalia that is flying off the
shelves.
In France, Gibson finally found someone who will
screen the movie and possibly distribute it in the
country. This someone is a Muslim! Again, some
cautionary words about Muslims. They are the plague in
Europe, crime is at an ever high because of them, and
they are huge in numbers. In Europe, they are what the
Mexicans are in the good ol' USA:
[START]
French film buffs worried that anti-Semitism charges
could bar them from seeing Mel Gibson's The Passion of
the Christ will get to see the movie after all thanks
to a Tunisian Muslim producer ready to distribute it.
This movie-mad country was rife with rumours last week
that wary distributors would boycott the film because
it could spark anti-Semitic violence, a problem
haunting France's large Muslim and Jewish minorities
for several years.
The daily Le Figaro reported on Tuesday that The
Passion would open in France on 4 April, two days
after it hits cinemas in Spain and shortly before
it reaches neighbouring Italy and Germany.
Tariq bin Ammar, a major film broker with business
ties to media tycoon Rupert Murdoch and Italian Prime
Minister Silvio Bersluconi, told interviewers the
film stressed forgiveness and blamed the Romans rather
than the Jews for Christ's death.
"I thought it was my duty as a Muslim who believes in
Jesus, who respects and was brought up in the three
(monotheist) religions, to have this film shown
to the French and let them judge it for themselves,"
he told TF1 television late on Monday.
"It's a powerful film and not at all anti-Semitic, as
viewers who go to watch it will see," he told Le
Figaro in remarks explaining that the criticism
that preceded the film's US premiere last week was
based on an early script and not its final version.
Against fundamentalism "When I saw the film two weeks
ago, I was deeply touched because it shows what Christ
really went through in his final hours ... it's a
powerful film and not at all anti-Semitic, as viewers
who go to watch it will see"
Tariq bin Ammar
Tunisian film broker
Bin Ammar told TF1 he had discussed producing the film
in his native Tunisia with Gibson three years ago, but
the September 11 attacks in the United States
stymied that project and the film was made in Italy.
"It is a film against fundamentalism," he said.
Defending the graphic violence Gibson portrays, he
added: "He wanted to show the barbarity of the Romans,
because it was the Romans who killed Christ."
Bin Ammar, who produced Franco Zeffirelli's Jesus of
Nazareth and Roberto Rossellini's The Messiah in the
1970s, has also been involved in the production of
such popular films as the Star Wars and Raiders of the
Lost Ark series.

*******************************************************
Yet another controversy has arisen, surrounding the
construction of the world's biggest Holocaust Memorial
in Berlin, Germany. The Jews say that this memorial
will encompass all atrocities of the Nazis.
American architect of the memorial, Jew Peter
Eisenmann, has gotten himself into trouble with about
every Jew in Germany. The president of the Jewish
Central Committee, Paul Spiegel, is up in arms over
the anecdote/joke Eisenmann told in the recent
memorial committee meeting.
"At one of my visits to my dentist, he asked me
whether or not my gold fillings came from the Degussa,
taken from the teeth of murdered Jews."
Several members of the committee walked out. Eisenmann
still claims that it was meant to be a joke. The
mother of the Holocaust Memorial, Leah Rosh, demands
the resignation of Eisenmann from the construction.
"I think he doesn't take the Holocaust victims
serious," she says.
Peter Eisenmann refuses to resign from the
construction. He has already apologized to Bundestags
President Wolfgang Thierse, the Chairman of the
Holocaust Memorial Commission. Nevertheless, Spiegel
and the President of the Berlin Jewish community
insist that Eisenmann leaves the project.
It's kind of good to see how the Jews eat their own.
*******************************************************
Disagrees with my take on German words:
[START]
I usually agree with almost all of your positions. I
was born in Germany (Bad Reichenhall) and came here as
a child. But I do have to disagree with you on the
American (English) version of German place names.
It is not just the American or English that use their
own versions of German place names. All the European
languages have their own versions of European country
and major city names (or names of even minor towns if
the towns are in border regions).
You write, "And don't give me the crap of it comes
from the Romans and from the old Celtic or Germanic.
Only the American population does that. No one in
Germany or Austria uses these terms. And that is just
the point".
I'm afraid you are missing the point on this one,
Walter.
Are we Germans guilty of being arrogant, or distorting
French or Russian or Italian culture when we use
'Frankreich' instead of the French name for
their country, 'France'; or 'Moskau' instead of
'Moskva', or 'Rom' instead of 'Roma', 'Florenz'
instead of 'Firenze'?
Take a very old, cluturally important city like Wien
for example. Why do you think that it has different
versions? 'Vienne' in French, 'Vienna' in English and
I believe, different spellings in most major European
languages. This is because it has been an important
city over many centuries and its name has evolved
through the various languages.
These names of European countries and older major
cities (as well as all place names in border regions
Strassburg/Strasbourg, Danzig/Gdansk, Bozen/Bolzano)
have come into use over many centuries and have
evolved separately in the various languages. So, one
would naturally expect to have English versions of
German place names. The English and Americans say use
Milan instead of Milano, Moskow instead of Moskva,
etc.
Relatively newer cities (newer in the sense of
politcal importance), such as Berlin, which didn't
come into prominence until about 200 years ago, is
the same in most languages.
And this is precisely the reason we don't generally
have German versions of American place names with a
few exceptions, like Kalifornien, etc. Generally, the
more recent the place name, or if they are named after
a peson or come from native American names, etc., the
more likely that different languages will not come up
with their own versions. That is why Kansas City,
Washington, Mississippi, Sacramento, Houston, etc.,
are the same in most languages.
Like I said. I agree with most of your positions, but
not on this one. You're right. There is an
extraordinary amount of tearing down and disparaging
German history, culture etc., but not really via the
place names. However, it is now and has been
politically correct, I think, to replace in English,
the German names of former German cities and towns
with the versions used by the countries now
controlling them. You only hear Danzig, Königsberg and
Breslau in reference to WWII and before; and when
talking about them in current terms, you now see only
Gdansk, Kaliningrad and Wroclaw.
I want to thank you for all your work for Revisionism
and defending German history and culture!
All the best.
David Karl Thomas (my father is American, hence my
American sounding name - but my heart remains German!)

Dr. Countess responding to the Zundel write-up in
Canada's newspaper:
[START]
Dear Mr. Makin:
Your article on Ernst Zundel may have been an example
of Canadian journalism at its best!
Congratulations indeed for presenting the relevant
data and omitting whatever prejudices you may or may
not harbor with reference to his views on the JHS*.
I have yet to read a Canadian paper with such fine
coverage of one so controversial as Mr. Zundel.
He occasionally calls me-COLLECT, of course!--from the
prison and we have a nice talk; and I visited him on
March 30th, 2003 in solitary confinement for about an
hour. If I may offer an analogy, it is this. As
some Jews have attacked THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST and
Mel Gibson with extremist vehemence for a year and
thus helped make the movie perhaps the MOST
lucratively grossing Hollywood film of all time, some
Canadian Jews have also attacked Ernst Zundel with
such extremist vehemence and even VIOLENCE that they
are helping to make Zundel into a martyr at best and,
at least, one of the best known persons in the
Dominion.
Question: Why cannot these extremist Jews LET people
get on with their movie productions or their personal
lives and just LEAVE THEM ALONE INSTEAD OF CREATING
SENSATIONALISM AND, IN THE CASE OF GIBSON, HUGE
WEALTH?
I may not be very smart, but I do know that most of
the time, if a controversy is ignored, it will not
amount to much. Both Gibson and Zundel could NEVER
have paid for so much free publicity if left to their
own resources.

Dear Ms. Ward:
A friend in Canada sent me your article on the
pacifist Ernst Zundel which I read with great care.
I am a retired US Army Chaplain and hold the PhD in
New Testament Greek and have taught in several
colleges and universities both in the USA and abroad.
Your concluding sentence paragraph said, I think,
everything that needs to be said: ". . , the words of
people like Zundel can't hurt us."
As a Christian minister, I visited Mr. Zundel in
prison last year-remembering what Jesus commanded His
followers to do when He declared that we are to visit
those in prison-and I found no words in our hour-long
conversation that could "hurt" me or you or Jews or
any non-Jews anywhere at any time; in addition, I have
read his newsletter quite often and over a period of
years and must conclude similarly.
Perhaps, as a Christian journalist, you might want to
follow Jesus' command and thus visit Zundel in prison
not terribly far from where you live and work.
If you do decide to follow Jesus' command, perhaps you
might write a follow up article, which I would be most
pleased to receive and read.
Sincerely,
Robert H. Countess, Ph.D.

For general distribution I am pleased to learn that
you have identified this nefarious character whose
rudeness and obscene, insulting outlook on life are
now quite well known to readers of your site and
newsletters.
The Sacto April conference has ALL the characteristics
of a truly varied conference with lots of positive and
negative publicity, along with the apparently
excellent organizational skills of Harvey Taylor and
you to make it run efficiently.
I hope that this will be only the first of a regular
annual conference there in the Golden State's capital.
Keep up the good work!

Gavin Oughton on Prof. Robert Faurisson's thoughts:
[START]
Robert Faurisson's thoughts to Fred Toben lead me
again to say the evidence or otherwise of "gas
chambers" lays in the forensic science. It's the
bottom line. The more people who perform the tests
the better. Boring? Yes, but for our
purposes...accurate!
One test witrh perhaps a " follw up " should be
enough. However revisionists or other honest people
are in the position where law courts and university
faculties and the media must be assaulted with as many
repeats of the tests s possible.
We know what the truth is. Now we must manufacture
tactics to expose these examinations.
If one test is not enough, let's give 'em one hundred
forensic tests!
Bury the bastards in an avalanche of truth!

Subject: Patriot Letter: Haider Wins Big -- Chess Racist? -- Farah
the Jerk -- Robert Faurisson -- ...And More
Dear Fellow Patriot!
The headline this morning: "Rightist Haider's Party
Wins Vote." Now that must have been a surprise for
everyone that has been reading the media for the last
couple of days and their predictions about the state
election in Kaernten, Austria.
Joerg Haider, Governor of Kaernten, won big. For him,
that also means he's going to have another four years
as the Governor of the state. Joerg Haider is hated by
the Jewish community in Austria for his admiration of
Adolf Hitler and his vehement opposition to
immigration. Of course, the Americans hate him because
he is a friend of Saddam Hussein. In fact, the
opposition did some billboards with Haider and Saddam
Hussein on it. Didn't help much.
Ariel Muzicant, the head of Wien's Jewish community,
must have been most upset over this election. While
the rest of the Jewish community was regurgitating
this morning, Muzicant must have had a nervous
breakdown. It was just a couple of days earlier that
Muzicant won in court in a lawsuit that he had filed
against Joerg Haider. Reason: Because Joerg Haider
said this about Ariel Muzicant:
"I don't understand how someone with the name Ariel
can have so much dirt on his hands."
"Ariel" is also the name of a very popular laundry
detergent in Austria.
*******************************************************
If you think that Austria, Germany or Europe in
general have gone crazy over political correctness,
you are mistaken. The USA still tops the list of
ludicrous ideas to serve the multi-cultural septic
tank.
School Districts in California are considering a new
program, called "Algebra Chess." The reason, civil
rights activists Robert Moses and Bill Ware say that
the Chess Game in its current form is a racist game:
"By saying that white automatically is offensive, it
states that white is better than black," said Ware.
So Ware and Moses produced a new program to play
Chess, which could be picked up by numerous school
districts: The "Algebra Project."
The program will take out the white players and
replace the entire game with colors, like red, blue or
green. The "Algebra Chess Program" changes the first
move to the square "D-1", on which every queen stands
on. That is the team that moves first. This way,
neither color has priority or an inherent right to
move first.
Ware says: "I want to eliminate the stereotype that if
you are white, you are right, and if you are black,
step back."
That's got to top it all! I wonder how Moses and Ware
feel about Checkers? I tell you, the inmates are
running the asylum.

Josef Farah, owner of WorldnetDaily.com, has come out
with a piece, criticizing Hollywood that they have
honored Leni Riefenstahl. Farah is quite derogatory
about it, and actually compared Leni Riefenstahl to
Mel Gibson.
I know Farah personally from Sacramento. He claims to
be a conservative but he is nothing but a pimp for
Israel, one of the worst kind.
Comparing Gibson to Leni Riefenstahl is absurd! Ms.
Riefenstahl was a genius and her films are works of
art. Mel Gibson is an opportunist with very little
directing abilities.
While Leni Riefenstahl was making films for Hitler,
Mel Gibson was making films for the Jews.
I don't ever support Farah's website and in a perfect
world he would be long gone.
[START]
Hollywood honors a Nazi
By Josef Farah
I waited a week to write this.
I waited intentionally to see if there would be any
apology, any second-guessing, any mea culpa from
Hollywood.
Nope.
A full week after the Academy Awards show that honored
entertainment industry figures who died in 2003,
including Adolf Hitler's filmmaker-propagandist Leni
Riefenstahl, no one has expressed regrets or remorse
to the American people or to the world's Jews.
Incredible. Especially so since so many in Hollywood
have spent the last eight months obsessing over
non-existent anti-Semitism in this year's biggest
blockbuster movie, Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the
Christ."
In case you missed it, in a segment of the Oscars
extravaganza last weekend, the Academy offered up its
annual memorial to those entertainment industry
figures who died last year. The list included
Riefenstahl, Hitler's favorite filmmaker - the one who
produced all of his epic propaganda works.
This is one on which I agree with Abraham Foxman of
the Anti-Defamation League. Though I must point out
that his protests of this obvious misjudgment have
been far more muted than his conniptions over Mel
Gibson.
Riefenstahl was Hitler's hand-picked filmmaker, and
she played a leading role in making propaganda for the
most evil regime in human history. Imagine giving
tribute to her along legitimate artists such as
Gregory Peck and Elia Kazan. It does an injustice to
every other artist named.
Riefenstahl, who died last September in Munich at the
age of 101, was personally chosen by Hitler to direct
films glorifying the Nazis, such as "Triumph of the
Will." Riefenstahl even used Gypsy prisoners from
German concentration camps as extras in one of her
films. Although Riefenstahl later claimed she did not
support the Nazis, when Hitler conquered Paris in
1940, she sent him a telegram declaring: "Your deeds
exceed the power of human imagination. They are
without equal in the history of mankind. How can we
(the German people) ever thank you?" She produced Nazi
documentaries during the 1930s and never apologized
for her association with Hitler, claiming she didn't
know about the mass murders.
Yet, far from rethinking the decision, some top
Academy officials have rationalized the inclusion of
Riefenstahl.
"She had a greatness to her and she had amazing
longevity," said Sid Gannis, a Hollywood producer and
Academy vice president. "There was no special debate
whatsoever in the decision to include her on the list,
and I personally agree with it."
"Yes, Hitler was evil, but I think it was proper to
have her name there," Elton John said. "She was a
great filmmaker, and as an artist myself, I think she
deserved to be there."
Hitler was evil, but ...
Does that "but" bother you as much as it bothers me?
I don't know about you, but I think I'll be
withholding my wedding present from Elton and his boy
toy.
Producer Jerry Bruckheimer said: "I don't have a
problem with it. She was a genius, and her movies were
innovative and still copied today. ... When I was
making commercials years ago, I remember one where the
director stole directly from 'Triumph of the Will.'"
Academy board member Tom Hanks, who said his role "is
to crack wise at the meetings and make people laugh,"
declined to comment either way on the decision to
memorialize Riefenstahl.
This is the mentality that rules Hollywood. It's
corrupt. It's morally bankrupt. It's diseased. It's
mentally ill.
And these are the folks who are entertaining our
children, setting the cultural agenda for the nation,
passing judgment on America's values, criticizing the
war to liberate Iraq and, yes, even condemning
artistic freedom by passionately faithful filmmakers
like Mel Gibson.
It's enough to make you sick.
[END]
*******************************************************
Let me digress for a few lines before we get to the
next item. The Haider News and the Farah News reminded
me again on just how arrogant the Americans are. And I
don't mean everyone. Just the mainstream. I am fed up
with the distortions of German names, German cities,
German culture and German heritage. It is part of
destroying German heritage. It is also complete
stupidity and lack of education. Let me give you a few
examples:
Nuremberg. Who ever came up with this? It's Nuernberg!
Cologne. It's Koeln!
Munich. It's Muenchen!
Vienna. It's Wien!
Germany. It's Deutschland.
Austria. It's Oesterreich.
And I could go on and on and on. It also takes away
the meaning. Because Germany doesn't mean anything,
but Deutschland means land of die Deutschen.
And don't give me the crap of it comes from the Romans
and from the old Celtic or Germanic. Only the American
population does that. No one in Germany or Austria
uses these terms. And that is just the point.
Nobody explains "Cinco de Mayo" or "Kwanzaa". And
what
do you think the Germans say to New York? New York.
Chicago? Chicago. Sacramento? Sacramento.
Another thing. German's always equal Kraut.
By the way, that's the only thing that is translated
correctly, but used in a derogatory way. Sauerkraut is
really not that big in Germany or Austria. For
example, in Austria, Wiener Schnitzel is much bigger
than Sauerkraut. Or, in Bayern, Pork roast is much
more popular than Sauerkraut. Sauerkraut is just a
side dish for certain food items, like Bratwurst,
bacon and Tiroler Knoedel.
Umpapah music is also not the typical choice of music
for Germans. It's music for Karneval, Oktober Fest,
and Fairs. For the rest of the year, Austrians and
Germans have just as many "pop, rock and other" music
stars.
And how hypocritical this is with the multi-cultural
slogan that we have to keep African-American culture
and Latino culture in its originality.
What about European-American culture? Oops, I forgot,
that culture is racist and therefore, let's disform
it, like in the movie "Top Secret", when Val Kilmer
says: "Der is Sauerkraut in mein Lederhosen."

Prof. Robert Faurisson to Dr. Fredrick Toben:
[START]
Belief and Denialism
Fredrick Töben says:
I do not DENY the 'Holocaust'
I refuse to BELIEVE in the 'Holocaust'
Dear Fredrick,
Avoid saying anything totally or relatively negative
such as 1) "I do not" , 2) "I refuse", 3)
"believe".
You should say : "I know the alleged 'Holocaust' is a
hoax".
You may add: "It is the conclusion of my researches.
You, people who claimed there was a 'Holocaust', you
were unable to bring me any evidence and , when I
brought you evidence to the contrary, you were unable
to answer". But this addition is even superfluous
since to a pure affirmation you have only to answer
with an affirmation of your own.
When you have only one glass on a table, avoid saying
: "I do not deny there are six glasses on that table"
or "I refuse to believe that there are six
glasses on that table" , which is negative and which
is playing the play ascribed by the liar. Why should
you obey him and play his play ?
You should say : "I know that the alleged presence of
six glasses on that table is a joke." Etc.
Often I said that we Revisionists, we are "positive
and even positivist people". That's why our opponents
call us "deniers", "negativists", "negationists".
They
know that Satan is supposed to say: "Ich bin der
Geist, der stets verneint". We have nothing to do with
Satan and his denials. So why should we stupidly play
their play and go around repeating we are satanic
people who "deny" ?
For me, the problem is that I already said all that so
many times in so many ways but people have real
difficulties in listening, reading, understanding,
and keeping in mind.
If you wish to get an idea of my revisionists
arguments, findings, positions and method, please,
read for instance very slowly and carefully
"Impact and Future of Holocaust Revisionism" (JHR,
January 2000) and "My Revisionist Method" (JHR, March
2002).
Well known lazy revisionists never ever read those
papers and they come asking me questions whose answers
are already here.
Best wishes.

And we are staying with the French:
[START]
Pr. Faurisson corrected me: I had used the words "get
rid of them" instead of "expel them"!!! So, please,
here is his own message:
<start>
Admiral Philippe de Gaulle is the son of General
Charles de Gaulle, who died in 1970. He recently
published two volumes of memoirs about his father.
On Saturday night (March 6, 23.50) he was interviewed
by Thierry Ardisson on French TV Channel 2. At one
point he was asked questions about General de Gaulle
and the Jews. Suddenly he said about the Jews:
"Germans [or Hitler ?] wanted, if not to exterminate
them, at least to expel them." He said:
"if not to exterminate them" with a sceptical purse of
his lips.
Normally both Admiral Philippe de Gaulle and Thierry
Ardisson (who had made the interview two days
previously and who decided to keep this statement
uncut) should be sued according to the antirevisionist
act of July 13, 1990 ("loi Fabius-Gayssot" or "loi
Faurisson").

could make big waves!

A word from David about Schindler's List:
[START]
It must always be remembered that the movie
Schlinders List was BASED on a NOVEL by an Australian
fiction writer by the name of Thomas Kennerley.
Fiction is fiction, and Schlinders List is and was
sold as a work of fiction. It was and is a NOVEL.

*******************************************************
"Tom and Barry":
Chamish: Anecdotal evidence?
One of the first things one learns in the study of
medicine is to distrust anecdotal evidence. John D.
Rockefeller's magic snake-oil elixir may have cured
cancer, psoriasis, heart disease and a host of other
ailments in trusting users--but this in no war proves
its efficacy.
Likewise, Chamish's experience with a section of the
Jewish population "disappearing" is certainly sad--and
it is niice he found that many have mourned needlessly
for years--but this in no way either proves or
disproves the "Holocaust".
With the mortality of the German/Austrian from the war
at some 20% (and the USSR even higher) would it be
surprising that, say, 500,000 Jews perished in the
war? This would only be 10% of the prewar Jewish
population. That would not make it a "Holocaust".
It is my understanding that in countries such as
Holland, Jews with families were not put into camps
until the last few months of the war. This, they were
told, was for their protection. If, as it appears
from the demographic data, only 10% of Jews perished,
this policy may have had some success.
