Subject: Update on the planned Zundel demonstrations May 6
==========
Update on the planned Zundel Demonstrations May 6 in the United States:
Many of you have asked for additional information
about how to contact groups or individuals who are willing to
participate in the May 6 Zundel demonstration. Unfortunately, I don't
have such contact lists. These demonstrations form spontaneously,
which is politically expedient for reasons I don't care to explain. We
are living in perilous times.
However, there are many Freedom of Speech groups and
organizations in your area. They don't have to be revisionists. For
instance, I tried a Google search for "Freedom of Speech
organizations Boston" and got all kinds of useful links. Try it and spend
an hour getting links and contacts.
Many of these organizations have news groups who might be willing to
distribute our press releases. Be prepared for rejections as well.Be prepared to have abuse heaped on your efforts.
Verbal and written abuse is always a sign of where the demarcation
lines are between those who cherish freedom of speech and those who
either do not understand the nature of our struggle or who operate
on the camouflaged censorship side. Don't be discouraged.
We are up to our knees in an information war where we might find
allies where we least expect them.
Also, please remember that if you cannot join an
organized demonstration group, you can always call, fax, or write.Your voice will make a difference!
What should you say when you contact German government officials?
Put your protest into the form of questions.
Ask if the following is true:● Is it true that the Embassy of Washington, D.C.
participated in a coordinated kidnap ambush of Ernst Zundel?● Is it true that an arrest warrant was sworn out
by the German government on the very day of the Zundel
deportation to Canada, even though the statutes of limitation on
previous charges for "speech crimes" had expired?● Is it true that Ernst Zundel has not yet been
charged by the German government, even though he has been in
detention in a German prison for almost two months?.● Is it true that his wife's letters are withheld - that as far as
she knows, not one of her personal letters have reached him?.● Is it true that Germany, a so-called
"democratic" country, has prosecuted tens of thousands of its own citizens
for "speech crimes" with heavy fines and/or imprisonment?.● Is it true that it is no longer safe to travel
to Germany, even for non-German citizens? (Mention the 1995
arrest of the German-American author, Hans Schmidt).● Is it true that there is an arrest warrant out
for Dr. Ingrid Rimland, an American citizen, wife of Ernst
Zundel, for a website on an American server she and she alone has owned
and operated since 1994? Is it true that this arrest warrant is, in fact, Europe-wide?
Tell the Ambassador/Consul that your letter is a
formal, specific request for a reply that you want to make available
to media. (Be sure to send those replies to me for our archives!)
Thank you very much!

Subject: *** Hungarians protest Zundel incarceration in Germany ***
TO ALL:
You see what kind of media a handful of protesters
can generate? Get ready for a Zundel Protest in your respective country ON MAY 6!
HUNGARIANS PROTEST ERNST ZÜNDEL'S IMPRISONMENT IN GERMANY
The protest took place in Budapest on Saturday 16th
of April as I mentioned earlier. Three different TV channels
reported on it on Saturday evening in the news and according to the
news reports the numbers of those who attended varied from 40 to 150
depending on which channel you were watching. One of the
organizers was selling their newspaper and he has sold exactly 230 papers,
so it is not an exaggeration to estimate that the real number of
attendance to be 250.
On Monday three daily newspapers also reported on
it, of course all the news reports and articles were negative calling
them extremist right wing and neo-nazis.
A couple of days prior, the German ambassador stated
that they would not accept the petition and they didn't even come
out and talk or listen to what the protesters had to say. The
organizers therefore mailed the petition to them on Monday.
The police arrived in large force and protected the
embassy and with steel bar fences they surrounded the whole building.
The protesters carried over 20 placards in Hungarian, German and
some in English, demanding freedom for Zundel and for dismantling the
anti-free speech laws in Germany etc...
The last three years the 16th of April has been
officially announced as The Holocaust Day, so therefore all over Budapest
the Jewish community and established officials unveiled a new
statue paying tribute to the so-called victims of the Holocaust.
Government officials paled [paid?] their respects.
A couple of days prior to the protest one of the
chief rabbis of Hungary was protesting to the police as to why they
allowed this "anti-holocaust" protest to take place on Saturday
and complaining that their followers cannot organize a counter
protest because it is on a Saturday, their Holy day. The police however
stated that they would not allow a counter-protest for fear of
fighting between the two groups.
Throughout the whole protest there was no trouble,
and the speakers reflected on Zundel's life, his ongoing struggle and
his imprisonment as well as the German Liberal dictatorship and its
anti-free speech laws. They ended the protest by playing the German
national anthem and the Hungarian national anthem.

for some pictures which are on a hostile Internet
site which portrayed the protest in a negative light with a
tone of insignificance. I have been promised by the
organizers that they will give me their own pictures and when I receive them I
will send it to you. I am also attaching the text of the petition in
German.
(Please note: The German-language text to the
German Ambassador to
the Chancellor of Germany will be posted shortly on
the Zundelsite at www.zundelsite.org)
