Letters from Ernst Zündel
10 January 2006
Happy New Year to all
I got your letter of 24Dec06 1/2 hr ago, read it and was amazed at what I knew already 20-30 years and more ago – is not being traded as “news”. I bought that Micheal Bar Zohar book The Avengers on the sidewalk in Beirut 1968! Zohar was the Executive Secretary of Ben Gurion!
Regarding the statements of Patton – I don’t want you to take this wrong! I dislike soldiers who knowingly lend their skills, talents, strategic knowledge to evil regimes. Soldiers are not exempt from the rules of moral responsibility – at least that is the dictum and axiom applied to the Germans – so by extension I naturally apply that to today’s German Soldiers in Kosovo, Afghanistan, to the Americans in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo and to those “braggarts” in the T.V. programs out of Israel. That’s why I take comfort in my belief system of Karma and Reincarnation – because in that belief system NO ONE can influence your Karma but you – its on automatic with a “flight recorder of your life” embedded within you, your conscience or your soul – and just like a trucker driving recklessly – it will be down on your –“drive-recorder” in your trucks glove compartment – to be analyzed and dealt with at the end of your trip!
You don’t even have to crash – just hand over the disks to your dispatcher or highway patrolmen – and await the consequences. In re-incarnation – the hierarchy responsible for your discarnate soul takes charge there for further assignment, re-assignment, processing (as below on earth – so above in heaven) there too are rules, regulations, grunts & officers, sorry to disillusion you my young friend. So this Officer in charge of your discarnate soul, which hopefully has arrived at the gates – and not in the outer room of hell – this heavenly overseer will take a quick examination of what’s stored in the record your flight recorder as it were its supposed to be called it’s the hard drive of your being through time past present and future where all the sum total of all your deeds and misdeeds are recorded and accessible by those with the right password – and if you goofed up mistreated someone abused your power in some way, raped, pillaged – or poisoned SS men with arsenic – then you are in for another tour of REINCARNATION – on this or any other millions of planets in this or other solar systems to suffer all the hurts and pains all the indignities and unfair treatments you have inflicted on other in your just completed incarnation!
It gives a whole new meaning to the term “Do unto others – what you want others to do unto you,” or variations of this theme! You understand me! I have long ago thought, that this is a far more sensible rule and idea –then the Christian Idea – that someone, a priest or a minister, a cardinal or pope can put in a good word for you up there or the even more grotesque idea that you can buy or bribe your way into heaven by deeding over some property to the church, or turning over some of your AT&T stock to Rev. Moon etc, ad infinitum!
So Ariel Sharon, Menachim Begin, Joseph Stalin et al, are going to have a few surprises along the way. They are going to find that heaven or hell – is an equal opportunity – equal rights- and equal responsibility place – where ETHNICITY, RELIGIOUS AFFILIATION – or position in life will mean zilch – ZERO! Nice, eh? If it was all far fetched and bunk – it is far superior to anything else I have looked at or studied.
So Patton was a gifted soldier – and brother was he ever wise to them – but still he was a flawed man character wise – because if he knew who ruled America at the time – that knowledge did not come like a flash of inspiration or illumination, a kind of Saulus to Paulus conversion! He understood most of that, before he served evil men, with even more evil plans, and as an American Patriot – he swore to protect the Republic from all enemies FOREIGN and DOMESTIC.
That’s taught at the Boy Scouts – you don’t have to go to West Point to learn the duties of American Citizenship!
So – Sorry to rain on the parade of many an American Patriot when it comes to Patton, MacArthur, Eisenhower or Catlett Marshall – or Groves the guy in charge of the Atomic Bomb development. They shared moral responsibility for WWII.
Where was their moral compass – when the simple decisions had to be made in their careers? When MacArthur raided and burned the encampments of the WWI War Veterans in Washington D.C. the so-called “Bonus Army”? He was an American, he knew these soldiers had been promised the bonus; the government reneged. These men and their families were starving – they were the victims of their own government’s double dealing, deceptions and outright lies!
Do you know who was MacArthur’s adjutant second in command and had a leading role in that outrageous assault on those unarmed-war veterans and their wives and children? It was none-other than Dwight Eisenhower! Can you now see – why both of these men advanced to the positions they did in WWII? I bet you, there is not 1 in 100,000 American who ever gave that event and it’s connection to the careers of both of these men a passing thought. It’s one thing to kill an enemy – a foreign enemy – it’s a totally different thing to serve as an ostensibly good, upright and moral man – evil men, with evil plans – ruthless treacherous men who only feigned morality when it suited them!
Like singing “Onward Christian Soldiers” on a battleship in the Atlantic or issuing the so called “Atlantic Charter” with no intention of ever keeping its promises – or even more so implementing them in the first place! Patton knew all that. But enough of all this moralizing! This topic just gets to me!
I wanted to briefly touch upon the “Bird Flu” – now raging in Turkey. Suddenly – one hears that The Bird-Flu had jumped get this “ to the European Part of Turkey” – so it must be that the other part is NOT EUROPEAN – as most every decent Encyclopedias and Atlases have referred to Turkey as “Der Vordere Orient” any scrap of land past the Bosphorus – narrow passage there –was for millennia called “Vorder-Asien” only the Anglos called it diplomatically “The Middle East” the French are more honest, like the Germans, they call the area “Se Moyen Orient.”
It irks me, this deliberate debauching and distortion of perfectly good descriptive terms! Because it is this confusion of terms – which was like one permanent artillery barrage over the European populations –telling everybody that Turkey was a European Nation – true may be when Alexander the Great and the Ionians and the Romans lived there that’s 2000+ years ago! I visited not just Turkey – but also Greece – and especially Athens, and SPARTA! I did not see a single Spartan in Sparta and envirous. I saw not a single “Alexander look alike” in all of my travels in those areas. What I saw as plain as day was that the Greeks in marble inside the Museums or in the temples on the freezes on the walls or on vases – looked very, very different to the Greeks or the Macedonians on the street the one whose miserable little goats were tethered to some rusty, pigs tail – Re-Bar, hammered into the fields in the grass growing in the ruins of “Down-Town,” “once mighty” Sparta! You know from looking at the newscasts of the Kosovo-adventure- that Asia extends to Zagreb. Why is that important? Biology – is the issue.
The German Government forces it’s people even families with 4 or 5 free range “Happy Scratch” chickens to keep them inside caged up in their coops- because migrating birds might poop into ponds or the meadows – which carries the virus – in the dung! Shit is the problem. Now suddenly – there are all kinds of excuses why in those “poor areas” of Eastern Turkey etc. you can’t apply the same sanitary measures, or an effective quarantine of those affected areas! Remember, I said, I did not believe the Chinese, Vietnamese, Thailandese – or even less the Indonesian promises and claims that they were going to kill & burn all these not millions of Birds. In China it’s Billions – I have heard figures from 14 Billions to 40 billions. Chicken-meat, geese, Ducks, are such an integral part of the Asian diet – they would have the greatest self inflicted famine on their hands if they slaughtered, and burned all those chickens. They will show some T.V. crews and some squawking, flapping, burning piles of carcasses and once the T.V. crew has folded up their tripods, the locals will rescue what is left and eat it- because to them to eat it means to survive another day. To kill all those birds would mean almost certain death by famine, because it takes months to raise chickens and ducks and who guarantees that these new batches will not be infected?
I predict- a disaster is brewing – for the earth has reached the point of no return as far as sustainability of populations are concerned in some areas? It will start up locally – be contained – spread like a metastasizing cancer! Not a nice thought while in prison!
All the best. Ernst

The 5 pages allowed to me prevented me from touching on the Jack Abramoff phenomena. He comes at a particularly sensitive time in American domestic politics- when there is clearly “Washington (or Central government) Fatigue”, in many areas of the American main stream – if I read the wood right from the snippets of information I can glean out of the American Forces network broadcasts, and the “pablum for the masses” publicly available news reports from the prisons garbage can!
The Abramoffs are like the occasional rumbles, and puffs of acid smoke and gasses vented by seemingly dormant volcanoes, which have not erupted in centuries or at least over long periods – and suddenly there are those nasty reminders that not all is running smoothly “on the inside” of that mountain. I remember numerous such conditions – preceding for instance that blast which finally blew the top off Mount St. Helen –and some others. It has been “rumbling” in the belly of American Society, ever more forceful – since that disastrous “Savings and Loan Scandal in the 1980’s – accelerated under Clinton, with those insider Trading and those avaricious Junk Bond dealers Michael Milken, Ivan Boesky and others. It was Boeskey – and his accomplices – which began virtually dealing in information and trading names before the Sheriff was finished reading him his Miranda Rights!
I remember reading the stories in True Magazine and Newsweek how they reported that he “talked for days on end”, supplying names, dates, places, amounts – which led to ever more “settlements” before investigations, or even charges most never ever reached the formal charges stage! A few were sacrificed “to vent harmless steam” like the volcanoes, but the rest was settled outside the glare of publicity, the Oligarchy was able to keep the lid on it – as they managed in the Savings and Loan Scandal – damage control was still possible then, but it seems to become ever more difficult as the circle of those affected by graft and corruption spreads wider and wider and it is like the proverbial Dutch boy – who tried to plug holes in the dyke and ran out of fingers, then hands, because too many holes developed ALL AT THE SAME TIME.
Before my arrest, Ingrid kept pulling material off the net about a mysterious group of people referred to as “the plumber team” – a group of mysterious but immensely rich investors, who would act like a kind of financial “five brigade” coming to the rescue of investment banks, brokerage houses international traders dealing in “futures”, others being involved in Gold Stocks, and some thing called “derivatives”. When it comes to finances I am not the wisest believe me, but by the frantic activities of these “plumbers” were important out to fix some leaks before all the pipes began to burst.
And again – the American system survived Reaganomics, Bush Senior, Clinton and the dot.com melt down, it even survived the 9/11 disaster – and wobbled it’s way into Iraq, and now is stuck in the quagmire there and in Afghanistan, where there seems no exit strategy – because China and India are sitting perched to take off and dive on the carcasses of those two pivotal to the production and flow of oil and gas countries – soon a third one will be added – maybe before you even get this letter. IRAN! That must be a very tempting target for the Bush-NEO-Con Clique not battering on the American people! Because it would knock out one more rival and threat to Israel’s hegemonial plaus for the region, and it would be “an explainable option” to be exercised by the Commander in Charge, Bush – likes those PHANTASIES. And the Neo-Cons would achieve their plans for the American Century – or whatever their arrogant fanciful title was for their “Shock and Awe” flights of “sand box-day dreams” of latter day empire building, on the back of the U.S. taxpayer and G.I.?
Traditionally for almost 115 years the U.S. Central government – was used by various presidents – to deflect attention and criticism with foreign adventures and involvements. From the Spanish-American War, the sinking of the Maine, to the invasion of the Philippines – W.W.I. & W.W.II – absolute classics, where failed domestic policies and administrations clutched victory and survival for their moribund administrations and their policies, by shifting the focus and attention of the American SHEEPLE to foreign battlefields.
Soon re-armament guaranteed jobs, overtime, fuelled a domestic market investment and purchasing climate and all was forgotten! Happy Days were here again! Will Bush – and his Neo-Con handlers be able to avoid the temptation to play the IRAN – Axis of Evil-card, and roll the dice one more time by “einer flucht nach vorn,” a fleeing forward, a flight away from domestic criticism and disaster – by cloaking himself as a beleaguered “Commander in Chief” battling Darth Vader like, sinister forces hell bent on doing harm to the American Homeland – 5000 miles around the Globe? It must be tempting – as a kind of clasping at the last straw for the Neo-Cons? “Emergency is the Cloak the tyrant always wears.” It would deliver an excuse, to extend the Patriot Act in one form or another, forever. Give the Neo-Cons the instrument they need to cling to power, master the domes – tie storm etc… Don’t’ think that it has not occurred to these people – or the about to be investigated and revealed corruption tainted Congressmen and Senators! Believe me! They will be all too eager to vote the Agenda of those Circles NOW, because the Patriot Acts Surveillance Activities and Provisions have netted “the Controllers” a cornucopia of data and information, which not only can – but WILL be used in this life and death struggle, of that alien body feeding off and directing the American body politic. That’s the crisis – within the American political and social order – we are in!
I don’t know if you have ever read anything by the American Philosopher cum Social Commentator Lawrence Dennis? He prophetically outlined way back in the 1930s and 1940s, what has now caught up with America full force.
Another one who foresaw it, was Francis Parker Yockey – who in his 800 page Opus Magnum entitled Imperium with a foreword by Willis Carto – outlined the phrase we are in NOW – that’s why he called his book Imperium. Yockey wrote that prophetic book while being safely ensconced in an Irish Monastery in Brittas Bay Ireland in 1947-48! Yockey was a brilliant linguist, spoke five languages, graduated from Chicago University, summa cum laude – and was hired as a “War Crimes Interrogator” shipped to Europe, where his job was to question the members of the European – Elite of the 1920s – til 1945!
My mentor, Mr. Arcand, had Yockey as a guest in his home in Canada only a few years before I met Mr. Arcand, and he told me how Yockey – by being exposed day in and day out, to the “World View” of this European Elite – evolved his own vews and ended up incorporating it into what is condensed in that difficult to read and digest book Imperium!
I liked it because it amalgamated several divergent streams of consciousness into a global vision – yet to be stated. Yockey understood the importance of the “Spenglerian” analysis of “The Morphology of the West” as penned in his two major works, in English called The Decline of the West and the wrongly titled but important work Man and Technics - which really should have been entitled “Man and Technology” (I mentioned that before). But this analysis or better diagnosis of what ails us, the Western Culture, at this time, is almost suicidally honest. I say that knowing it sounds a bit “off the wall”. As a former patient of serious illnesses I can tell you there comes a point – when someone gives you a scary diagnosis – to toy with suicide – in the face of certain death. It sounds like a contradiction but it is not. So Yockey – looked at the German Elites reaction and response to the crisis they had faced – and as an American – he thought in far greater geo-graphic, and geo-strategic, geo-political spaces!
He realized with 20/20 hindsight, that if the afflicted patient Western Culture wanted to survive this crisis on its deathbed, a local response (meaning conventional nationalism) was at best a blunt and unsuitable instrument to heal the larger body! It did not suffice to heal just one organ, or one country, but the whole body (in this case the entire culture) had to undertake steps to heal itself – in all organs – because they may be geo-graphically separated by distance even oceans, they had to heal all organs at the same time – at the same pace – to achieve internal self-healing! In other words, his, Yockey’s View, incorporated the vital information produced by Spengler’s devastating condition of the patient Western Culture, analyzed the German response to it – took into account the limited success achieved by the regimes friendly to the German response – and amalgamated it into his larger vision of the world! Someone wrote a book recently about Yockey called “dreamer of the day” disturbing but nevertheless interesting if incomplete readings.
In comes the American acculturated peasant E.Z., now here comes the Black Forrest Hill Billy – and stumbles across this American work in the 1960-61. Mr. Arcand lends me these two fat tomes by Yockey, luckily by then I had learned enough English and also enough about history thanks to Mr. Arcand – and I take these ideas outlined, like a duck to water. In other words – I at once realized that 19th Century, not even 20th Century nationalism in the conventional sense was never going to achieve more then limited success and was condemned to be re-infected by the surroundings organs (nations). We – had simply out grown that kind of nationalism – that’s why I never went back to the old “isms,” but like Yockey, appreciating its valuable lessons learned so painfully. America – and the West – are still in a life and death struggle mainly against our internal afflictions. The rest are mere external symptoms! We are at a crossroads.
All the best Ernst

03, January 2006 [Second letter]
Such vast topics no little space to cover them hampered by files to verify dates, places, spelling, names, so you will have to do fact checking, and spell checking, the way poor Ingrid has had to do for so long. Five prisons in 2 countries on 2 continents – Amazing if you think about it.
I was utterly exhausted after this harmonics letter, and staggered into my bunk fully dressed, I pulled a blanket over me, fell asleep and was gone cruising through dreamland, visiting far away places, only to be yanked back to reality by the wolf-like howling of a prisoner. The time – 10pm then it was time to prepare for the night shift. The ritual, change my underwear, shirt, sweater – I had been sweating fully dressed. While changing I made some hot water poured some Ceylon tea mixed with green tea, a little honey, some dates, some almonds, raisons, added a few slices of fresh lemons to my tea, I put on an aspiring CD sat down and here I am to reconnect with the not completed topic of music, because music like everything else is only a part of a whole painting.
In other words – WE SIMPLY CANNOT IGNORE THE EVOLUTION OF MUSIC – or the evolution of instruments, because technological breakthroughs in the quality of Woodwind instruments and glues. Yes, lowly things like glues, saws, hammers are all part of the evolution of musical instruments. We have come a long way from the symbols, ox horns, and cowhide drums of the Greeks. Few realize just how far music has advanced over the millennia. A thousand years ago singers usually were lone performers, almost like rappers I hate to admit it. But still for millennia you would not hear the likes of Caruso, Pavarotti, Ella Fitzgerald, or even an Elvis Presley. Choirs were like the Gregorian chants one hears in musical history classes, not very inspiring or uplifting. Then the great churches and cathedrals were built and an amazing thing happened.
The Germans and Italians discovered perspective in art, in drawings and paintings, which changed the visual arts drastically. Suddenly we had a sense of depth, distance and proportions that matched what we Europeans saw and felt. No other cultural civilization in recorded history, I stress that because I know of no other ancient cultures art that has ever shown what we call today as perspective and drawing. When the Assyrians, Persians, Egyptians, Romans, Greeks wanted to show warriors in formation, they simply showed them same size – same size – side by side – no perspective style diminution in size or in detail. Things miles away were as detailed and as intense in color as things up close. That’s the limited version of all cultures before our own, even those of our own race the Etruscans, Minoans, Greeks and Romans hadn’t figured it out.
All this may seem to be pedantic and boring to some – it’s not – it’s important. This historical background explains that during the Renaissance [Re-Birth] Europeans went back to antiquity and copied the magnificent sculptures, temples, illustrations, but they introduced a feeling of spatial dimension to these copies. The soon developed rules like “Fluchtpunkt,” and object in the foreground is larger but begins to fade in size in the distance. Soon someone added feeling to the greens of forests and trees – details and darker colors initially that begin to fade off into a fog almost – blending with the periphery and background. Details also became less and fewer and bingo Europeans had finally succeeded in transporting onto paper, canvas and even stone the world as they perceived it with their own eyes and minds, in other words they restored harmony – harmonizing images they saw, felt, perceived they way it was to them.
Well – in reality that was a major milestone in our development with great spin-off consequences. At the time our music had not kept pace there we were still stuck in flat non dimensional feeling sound, I don’t remember now exactly when or by whom perspective was added to our music, but it was with dominant voices and instruments in the foreground and softer less powerful tones in the background achieving acoustically – via tone – or vibratory rate – exactly the evolution which the visual arts had discovered and were now using routinely. From there it was only a small step towards primitive orchestras. With organized music came the first primitive piano like keyboard instruments and organs from that moment on architecture in the cathedrals began to reflect acoustics all this might have seemed to border on sorcery and magic but it was in fact European civilization flowering – it was the threshold to a sole dimension of a then still soulful people.
But we easily forget this absolute wonder was only really accessible to the rich and powerful rich aristocratic upper classes. Music for the lower classes were still pretty primitive things, for Mozart, Bach, Hayden, Beethoven – were usually heard at Royal Courts, Palaces, maybe the Odd Cathedral – but the great masses of people listened to “Ditties”, ballads, by Troubadours, wondering “rappers” as it were.
Only the more plentiful production of musical instruments by developing craftsmen brought musical instruments within reach of most people, because they became more affordable. The printing press was very luckily invented at just about the same time – which allowed the cheap reproduction of sheet music, which before had to be painstakingly drawn by goose quill pen. Suddenly song sheets, then hymn books became available, musical instruments became portable, rail cars could not carry them, then ocean liners, and finally air planes. Then came the amplification of sound via loud speakers – microphones – and ultimately record players and cassettes, videos, CD’s, DVD’s! How few people ever reflect how starved for the beauty of sound of glorious music, our ancestors must have been when I discuss these topics with people while still free – or now while in jail – I usually drew blank stares. People are “non-curious acceptors”, consumers really, of everything from hamburgers, French fries, to music and the miracle of films, few consider how privileged we are to have available at the push of a button the greatest music of the greatest musical genius and the most talented performers for peanuts for a few cents.
And here comes the holistic – sociopolitical aspect of all of this – Music and art play a vital role among Europeans worldwide, again we simply take this for granted. There are a billion Muslims, and it used to be Jews too, even a few Christians, who thought it was blasphemy to draw faces and bodies of deities and people. The Muslim world today still forbids Graven images of people in its Mosques – only patterns – making their holy shrines look like kaleidoscopes, crippling a billion people artistically, circumcising them in the process. Artist in those societies are few and far between - Art galleries virtually non-existent. For an artist like me, it was a very, very [Middle East] disturbing area to be in – nightmarish in fact. That’s what I had to think of when I wrote that mini essay on the DNA- Harmonics- Soul – Vibration – Music! It is similar in importance and will be so an impact to the discovery of perspective in the visual arts.
And I hate to bring it up – it’s like with our human food diet as in our aesthetic diet – or our soul food – what we take into us can make us healthy, keep us healthy, give us energy to create and perform to full capacity of our potential (our human organism) but take into us poor quality, chemically adulterated nutrition, or nutrition killed or altered by idiotic fire treatment, heating, steaming, pasteurization, etc…, and it will make us weak, feeble, create fuzzy thinking, ill-logical conclusions, and end poor decisions, life style choices, which are suicidal and will lead to decline and ultimate extinction just like Pottenger’s cats. It is as inevitable as the Amen after a church prayer.
Now since the arts – All Arts – our food for our soul, sense of beauty, proportion, aesthetics, harmony – ANYTHING NOT HARMONIZING WITH OUR BEINGS – our own vibrations- will create friction, subliminally felt aggravation – create tension, and aggressive feelings in the same sense that a Waltz, a Tango, or a Jitterbug will create a certain mood or a state of being. So Caution is advised – Not all music is good music.
Ernst Zundel. _________________________________
3 January, 2006
Another letter for you – about some topics that may surprise you, and with which I need your help and input. The idea came to me on 31, December, 2005 at 1350 pm in the prison chapel where I attended the year end/New Years service offered by our Protestant prison chaplain. He has a very good singing voice. He chooses hymns that are far easier to sing along with than does the Catholic priest. Unfortunately, at this particular time there wasn’t a single hymn suitable for us prisoners – they were either too high or too low in octave. So there WE sat and up front he stood, struggling himself to reach the highs of those 300, 400 500 or even 1000 year old hymns while I sat there bored, but nevertheless thinking, reflecting if you will, on various matters relating to music. I took out my trusty pen and paper, the proverbial back of an envelope.
I took piano lessons in 1978 and 1979, tried to study, i.e. read notes, with the help of an alcoholic burnout piano teacher and practiced keeping up the beat to a metronome. I was thinking about this as I began leafing through our hymn book on New Years Eve, with its 1,600 year old Christian hymns, the oldest one dating back to Rome 380 A.D. and I suddenly realized why it was so silent in the room, this music had been written centuries ago mainly for Monks and Priests in monasteries, cloistered away. I was mulling this over – making notes fast and furious. As you might imagine, Ernst was the only one there taking notes in chapel. I was still listening with half an ear when the good Reverend produced; you guessed it, a metronome. He wound it up – it clanked away, initially bringing back unpleasant memories, but all the sudden I had an inspiration, an epiphany! We call this mysterious phenomenon in German “Vermengung,” which is like putting flour, milk, butter, salt, and yeast into a bowl, mixing it all together, kneading it, and out comes something new – the whole of all the individual parts. Suddenly – the whole jumble of discordant facts, elements, thoughts, I have been kicking around in my head, for months and years instantly congealed into the conclusion that DNA also plays an important role in music, at least in how we perceive it – how it [music] speaks to us.
Some music just isn’t conducive to one’s DNA, as an example I recently was listening to one of these multi-kulti, “we are one,” songs celebrating, get this, “UNITY in diversity,” which if you think about it is like celebrating morality via encouraging perversity. This German radio station was playing Christmas and New Years music from Uzbekistan, Mongolia, China, India, Pakistan, Africa – one from Egypt – another from Iraq – interspersed with a few European classics. I found myself wondering why I couldn’t stand the caterwauling from Iraq but was brought to tears and got goose pimples when I heard the sons sung by the German children’s choir, songs like Silent Night, Holy Night. Why had I tumbled from being on edge, uneasy, teeth grinding, to sudden sublime abandonment, as I listened to an all enveloping, soft, beautiful old hymn – picture the scene – amazing!
After three years of virtual solitary isolation, another Christmas away from Ingrid, and the dream we were fast realizing, alone with my prison bought radio, when suddenly this incredibly soothing sound began wafting from the otherwise chatterbox, a flood of angelic music sung by young innocents. It had to have echoed within my DNA – maybe that is in fact the soul, a positive vibratory response to external stimulus. Years ago a psychic friend of mine told me about how all in life is related to “vibrations,” and different vibratory frequencies. There are some scientists that believe they may be able to decode certain mysteries of the universe by tapping into these vibrations; they claim that they will be able to decode them much like a radio picks up frequencies out of the air. Of course I can just see everyone’s eyes glaze over at this point, but hear me out. Edgar Cayce and thousands of other gifted psychics were and are obviously tapping into; or accessing a repository of information, not only about singular individuals, but entire groups and while in trance regurgitate what they are incapable of accessing while in a wakeful state. I have heard tapes of such readings; I have been present at some – even interacted to a small extent with whatever it was that these psychics were in touch with. Cayce himself participated in some sixteen thousand readings devoted solely to “health and medicine,” – all of them taken down by an ever present “short hand,” person. He made over 4000 Live; that is personalized readings, where very specific individuals and families, and friends were dealt with. All of these readings were taken down verbatim. Cayce died in 1945, before the Americans had stolen tape recording technology from the Germans who had invented it in the 1930s. In Virginia Beach – the Cayce Foundation has for over half a century transcribed and mined these various readings, as have I.
So what does all of this have top do with the aforementioned “reverends,” poor choice of hymns cited earlier, and that damned metronome? Maybe nothing; could be also a great deal. For if the vehicle or tool is a vibratory rate, there may be an unguarded access port to our brain, soul, the entire being! At this pint I remembered that Hollywood had actually used the soundtracks of excited killer bees, mixed together with the shrieks of animals being butchered in the film Rosemary’s Baby, a film that was said to be especially unpleasant to watch, causing unease, etc… All of this was ruminating through my processor when I remembered that Disco music first came out people were dying of heart attacks while listening to it, apparently because of some “inherent,” wavelength within the sound or beat itself.
So, what if - a human being tape recorded the heart beat at various stages, like at rest, early excitation, and excitation, and then wrote songs carefully times to that “echo of the heartbeat,” the “life beat,” as it were? In other words, using harmonics – the science of vibrations – music could be tailor made that harmonized with our people – US! This really doesn’t seem to be all that far-fetched if you think about it. When my children were babies and were unhappy my wife and I would hold them close to our chests, they would hear [feel] the heartbeat and the rhythmic breathing and that alone would soothe them. I’d lay down with them, cover them with a blanket or robe and gently hold them close to my heart and then breathe them to calmness and more often than not to sleep, just by rhythmically breathing them down. I learned while taking Yoga classes that one can control one’s emotions by learning to control one’s breathing. It works for kids obviously, why wouldn’t it work for adults too?
You once wrote me a letter in which you suggested that alcoholics and drug addicts seek out a “chemical nirvana,” and erroneously believe they have found it in the aforementioned chemicals. Couldn’t some sort of pleasure be derived from harmonics, but a wholesome kind, one that is created for our own DNA, a soul specific sound? I have to patent that! Ha.
Now – you tell me – is boring church and enforced isolation in prison useful sometimes? Mind you, I would rather sit with Ingrid on our mountain top sanctuary and actually participate in developing that “magic sound,” but since that isn’t possible I’ll theorize the hell out of it here. So what sayest thou my young space traveler? Let me know your thoughts.
Ernst Zundel

If I didn’t know you better, if I didn’t know you as a steady-stickler for the facts, I would be inclined to disbelieve some of the stats you sent me in today’s letter. I was amazed at the list of names you included, it reads as a “whose who” list of those in Neo-Con USA!
I was just amazed by the fact that Fitzgerald is pursuing Conrad Black, that guy and his wife attacked me unrelentingly when they owned the National Post and the Jerusalem Post. I guess good things do come to they that wait! You just watch – his flighty wife, with her expensive tastes will either make a beeline for the exit or sing like a canary!
Michael Scanlon is only one of the first to turn stool pigeon – there will surely be many others – it will be like dominos falling in rapid succession – I guarantee it!
I don’t know if you remember – maybe you were overseas at the time – when some junk bond kings were arrested for “insider trading” in the 1980s, Michael Milken and Ivan Boesky? In any case, just as soon as the handcuffs snapped shut on Boesky and he was taken off to spend five years in a country club resort prison, he began to sing louder than a canary – a veritable Niagara Falls of revelations soon followed.
I predict, just like in the Enron case, these psychopaths will turn on one another, especially when it becomes clear that the media can’t bail them out.
You’ll soon have a ringside seat to one of the greatest shows on earth, these psychopaths are about to scurry from the sinking ship – these indictments are designed only to shake the foundation – soon the house of cards will tumble. Remember the Rabbi and Pentagon comptroller Zakheim and the missing 2.5 trillion? This didn’t go completely unnoticed. How about Marc Rich; a beneficiary of a last minute Clintonian pardon? Once these canaries start to sing it’ll be like Manna falling from heaven, there will be one frothy, foaming, writhing scene after another as these people begin turning on each other – like sharks in a feeding frenzy!
Of course this means that good men like Congressman Ron Paul will soon become very prominent, after all he is one of the few outstanding politicians of any moral character in the United States today. People like him are desperately needed in America at this time. Before all of this is over, Ingrid may well find herself turning over evidence to other grand juries, congressional panels, federal investigators and testifying before public hearings on the malfeasance of certain public officials and their abuse of power.
Joe McCarthy did not have the Internet, if he had, he’d probably still be alive today. I’m certain he was “done away” with just as Dov Eitan, John Demjanjuk’s former Israeli Supreme Court attorney was, when he was “suicided,” off of a high balcony during the Demjanjuk appeal process in the early 1990s.
In respect to Irving: I cannot understand what possessed that man to travel to Austria, he had to have known he’d be arrested. I myself did not attend my own mothers funeral because I knew it would have meant the end of my career. By being sensible and in charge of my emotions I managed to serve the cause for another nine years before this last kidnapping. We must understand that these people have an unusual sixth sense, much like rats can sense the imminent sinking of a ship, they know they are about to be cornered, and now they’ll fight all that much more fiercely, it’s fight or die as far as they themselves are concerned. Unlike in the past, this time they’ll find no more safe havens; there is no other gullible 1930s America for them to latch on to.
Russia under Putin has shown that the Russians are now alert to the destructive influences of these people – the Chinese are wily “old culture types,” they have eons of experience, and have known since the 1930s about the true history of Bolshevism and who actually led the purges, who dominates the banking system today, they aren’t likely to be fooled by these upstarts. The Chinese are quickly building up infrastructure, primary as well as secondary industries at break neck speed, in order to beat the clock, that time when the west does a Soviet Union like implosion.
By the time this happens, and it isn’t far off, the Chinese will have stockpiled enormous amounts of raw materials and will have squeezed the last dollar and Euro and Pound out of the “white devil’s” economies – bankrupting all western businesses in the manufacturing sector, leaving all but Wal-Mart financially devastated. They will sell us Chinese copies of our vans and luxury cares, built better than US versions and at a third of the cost and still make a handsome profit. It’s not hard do when 800 million Chinese are living without any health insurance whatsoever, when they aren’t strapped with unemployment claims from people that don’t want to work. In that part of the world, health care has always been only for the rich – and this will continue to be the rule too – as the Chinese don’t suffer from the same “sensitivities,” or sense of oneness we once had before the “sharks” took over – we are now only a poor shadow of our former selves.
In another three or four years the general wealth in China will creep up to produce in the context of Asia a budding middle class of approximately 250 million people/consumers, with sufficient industrial capacity and capital to create a self sustaining economy, entirely independent of the rest of the worlds. We are now seeing a global power realignment, right before our very eyes, unfortunately most people are too short sighted to understand the implications – It’s a tough world getting tougher – and we’ll soon find that others won’t be nearly as benevolent and altruistic as western man has been over the last hundred years. I still count on the residual power of regeneration in us to deal with all comers.
All the best and have a merry Christmas.

Just another few thoughts on the music topic, have a look at the birth years of these “Waltz-Greats” those born in the late 18th, and early 19th Century live the shortest lifespan – interesting eh? 26 yrs is the youngest.
About the ¾ tact “Beat of the day,” very little music with that “tact” or “beat” was composed or played before the 19th Century even though it was known and used – but as I said sparingly – in the 18th Century! I have often puzzled about that phenomenon? Why was that ? I mean – it took Western Society in storm in the later part of the 19th Century. It was like a dam that burst! Remember it spread like wild fire without the help of Radio or T.V.
Why then? Why not before? What forces were at work here? Some “purists” felt at the time, that it was in fact a form of licentiousness because a woman was firmly grabbed around the waist, and held up close, with both their bodies molding and fusing and swaying rhythmically to these stimulating sounds etc…!
Well-people were at first outraged to be sure! Society was going all to hell… Where was it all going to end etc…? Kissing onstage? In public? Compare that to the dances, the pirouetting of Mozart’s Day – at those effete snobbish balls with the men wearing tights and powdered wigs! And the woman with hairdos as high as the tower of Babel or “Babylon.” And then when one looks at the “Jitter Bug” and finally “The Twist,” and then the disgusting stuff “Skin Heads” called “dancing” where they would leap of the stage crash into their friends, dance topless and beat each other bloody – and then call it “White Power Music” – disgusting and degenerate! I used to have rip-roaring arguments with these young cultural anarchists – when they called that screaming raucous noise music! “Our Music!” Imagine our music!
I was not surprised when I later read while in prison in Toronto that some British, Norwegian, Swedish and even German “Rock-Bands” turned into “Black Metal” then “Heavy Metal” then into “Freaks” and finally into Charles Manson like “Satanists”.
Some of these “Rock Stars” turned Devil Worshipers actually would have “Black Masses” type Orgies and then burn down some for some reason these beautiful and rare, over 1000 years old all wooden “Viking” type churches in Norway. Booze, Drugs and Sex played a big role in those circles! I have come to the conclusion that having read and investigated this phenomena – that these people seem to become almost possessed by discarnate entities – or demons. I kid you not – like Rosemary’s Baby!
Certainly their debauched activities, their wild eyed expressions, and beyond weird looks and oh God the discordant sounds were abnormal and simply aberrant!
I could not believe it, when I heard that Willis Carto and Dr. Pearce had actually bought these “magazines” and these truckloads full of CDs forbidden in Europe. Willis C. sold it very quickly! The arguments I heard were largely “economic”, there was a huge profit margin, because these bands could no longer sell their CDs legally in Europe, so they dumped them – I heard some for a dollar or less – which would then be sold for $12.00-15.00 to American and Canadian Skin-heads via the mails. Talk about exploitation! And to English Skins, because there freedom of speech laws were more liberal then in Continental Europe!
I was always considered “too Square” and “too old fashioned” to “out of touch” etc… for that crowd. Well guess what? The bandleaders got their audiences and themselves into legal troubles, fist fights, drunken brawls, and got promptly arrested, charged, convicted – turned states evidence or simply “swore off” their beliefs!
Some served time – and when they came out started “multi-cultural bands” or simply faded into oblivion never to be heard from again! Certainly not in the music field! I kept preaching! Telling them that their music was to Beethhoven, Mozart, Strauss, etc. as was Picasso, Dada, Rauschenberg or Chagal, to a Rembrandt, Rubens, or a Michealangelo! They could not see it! I could not reach these young people! I wonder if some of them ever think back of those days now? I knew that there had to be a continuum somewhere! Cultural Trends rarely are cataclysmic thisms, especially in Art and in Music, evolution is usually the trend, not revolution.
Those were the things I was going to investigate, study, with the goal in mind of producing “Soaring Eagles” C.Ds, with a new kind of “Zundel-Sound”, like Tommy Dorsy, or Glenn Miller had their own distinct sound and arrangements in the 1940s and 1950s.
Even Elvis Presley produced a unique tailor made around his voice and personality “specific sound”! And I, Ernst Zundel, the man who supposedly lost touch with modern trends, must tell you that I was so touched and moved by that Elvis sound, that I had quite a collection – and I saw poor Elvis swollen from all the pills and drugs he was taking, overweight, sweating profusely in one of his last concerts, I think it was in Hawaii – it was one of the most moving performances I ever listened to! He wore a white “Rhinestone” studded jump suit, and had to wear a towel around his neck to mop his face repeatedly during the performance. I knew he could not live long – it was obviousl! It must have been known to him too – because in some of the numbers he already had an air of other worldlyness in his voice and face!
When Ingrid and I moved to Tennessee we would stop at an instrument builders shop, about 30-40 minutes away from our place in the mountains and often I would drop in at his shop, when I would drive to Knoxville to buy Art-Supplies, Canvasses, my easels, etc…! And I would watch him build these “Mountain Dulcimers” and explain to him the sound I was looking for, something deeper more resonant then modern day guitars – and far more manly then his rather timid and far too sweet and gentle sounding Dulcimers!
We were working and feeling our way towards the sound I envisioned – when the arrest came and quashed this project too. I had actually attended a number of Southern Gospel Conventions and Sing-alongs! In one, a guy actually rode his horse on the stage and sat there on his horse, in the saddle, playing his guitar and singing these “Southern Gospel Melodies”! I am not surprised that these singers and groups are popular – they are on this evolutionary trajectory, not abruptly breaking with tradition. It will be a while before I’ll get a chance in doing anything along these lines – but I am practicing in my mind – after all – that’s where Beethoven first heard and played his 9th Symphony – continuing to hear music, when he was already clinically “deaf”. Mysterious world my young friend. Good that we met! Ernst as always.
__________________________
24 October 05 I don’t have much time, since I want to get back to study my documents, but every once in a while I have to take a break, in order not to suffer “info-overload”. I have an aversion by now of dealing with this topic, you can believe me! So this is a bit of a mental stretch and also a diversion for me. And it deals with topics in one, so I can get maximum bang for my buck. I like that! Take a look at the relatively short life spans of some of the greatest composers who ever walked the earth.
Now why was that? There was no chemical or air pollution as we know it. There were no deadly chemical food additives – except for salt – a killer! Water was not yet fluoridated or chlorinated. Mild was not pasteurized or homogenized. There was not Aspartame, no MSG, no PSB- none of all of this – not even plastics to blame anything on, or chemical leaching saran wrap or much less the curse of chemical fertilizers for our fields! All food was organically “grown”. All chicken’s, geese, turkeys were “free range”, scratch happy birds! All milk was “milked by hand” not machines to give the cows mastitis – no penicillin and no artificial hormones to cure it. Milk was raw from the udder to the table. There was no refrigeration in massive slaughterhouses – everybody lived Hand to Mouth. So what cut the life span so short of these people? The “French Disease”, Syphilis, killed some. Consumption meaning TB killed others. Cancer and Heart disease were virtually unknown at the time!
The ‘plague’ was devastating! Still undiagnosed scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) was one of the diseases, because in order to kill the bugs, or possibly meat gone a little “off”, food would be boiled … just to be sure! That was known. And gone were vitamins and Enzymes.
Since all food was either home grown or by gardeners and farmers in the neighborhoods sold in outdoor markets – they had not yet discovered Safeways or Walmarts one can assume that everything was fertilized by cow dung or horse manure – organic! And since there were no refrigerated huge halls as big as hangers –everything was pretty fresh!
Listen carefully! This is important! It must have been how they prepared, ie cooked what they ate! And what they ate as a combination or as main staples! Too much starchy animal fatty food! What I am driving at is this! We can fertilize our growing soils with only organic dung even glacial dust and can grow fantastically mineral enzyme and vitamin rich food. If we still continue with our fire treatment cooking methods with carming via superheating by pasteurizing homogenizing, etc – WE WILL KILL all these wonderful compounds on our stoves before they get into our stomachs! That’s the archimedic point. That’s where I think along with poor hygiene and lack of central heating poor insulation and poor ventilation shortened the lifespan of these people.
Look at Mozart who died at age 35. Beethoven 57, Tschaikowsky 53, Chopin 39, Grieg 64, Schuman 46, Bizet 37, F.M. Bartholdy 38, Only Joaquin Rodrigo in our century lived to be 98. Franz Schubert 31, Debussy 56, Verdi 88, Vivaldi 63, Mahler 51, Joseph Hayden 77 (died of TB in London), Georg Friedrich Haudel 74, Dvorak 6.
I looked at the ages of Organ Music Composers – all of whom died pretty young with the exception of Bach!
I covered in previous letters the facts of most of these great composers coming from what today would be considered very large families! Like Franz Schubert being 12th of 14 children, Bach the 8th or 12 children, Wagner the last of 9 children, Mozart the last of 7 children, Robert Schumann last of 5 children!
What we are looking at has to be at least partially diet related!
Since potatoes and especially cereal crops – baked into bread, both involve heat treating boiling and baking, meat likewise being cooked, fish also – it simply has to be the unquestioned orthodoxy of our ways of preparing our food which is the problem. Cooking! Something to think about as we get set to assume the reigns to usher in not the New World Order but the True World Order. Weird the stuff this Ernst Zundel thinks about in his cell in Mannheim Prison! Eh! I think we have ignored these vial issues for far too long! We have to make changes or the hemorrhage of talents will accelerate in Western Civilization.
It would be interesting to know the birth dates and the death dates of these people – I mean the actual day, month, and the reason of death. In my opinion we would find that many died in the middle to late winter months when they lacked fresh vegetables, fresh fruit and lived on meat and potatoes pickeled (salty) stuff.
My mother pointed that out to me as a boy that more people in the village died during those bleak, cold, wet, unpleasant months, then died in the summer months! That’s what comes by living in tune with nature. There is NO DOUBT in my mind that better hygiene, better clothing – rainproof, and especially far superior footwear like boots with rain proof uppers and lowers has been a huge improvement.
Curtis I was miserable, cold, wet, with lousy footwear, no raincoats etc. til I came to North America – and central heating, hot water and air conditioning – saved me from all those childhood memories – of sheer misery, sore throats and 7 pneumonias.
You can see why I would take to North-American Society like a duck to water! Such luxuries within the reach of ordinary people – I felt like a KING!
Curtis! Beethoven losing his hearing may well have had its origins in exactly such conditions! Hearing loss is often caused by untreated deep seating colds and oddly “too much starchy food like wheat and potatoes and today rice! Hulled grains are killer! Most of the goodness is gone! Schiller may well have been Lactose – Allergic, thinking about the symptoms of his recurring illnesses.
All the best to you. Ernst Z.

31, July 05
My trial will begin on the 8th Nov. 05- projected over four days- at intervals. Depending on witnesses.
To follow up on my last letter to you, on this remineralization of the soil through “Rock dust.” I feel I did the topic not quit justice, because of that damned restriction to 5 pages maximum, let me follow up and say to save time and space that it is important that the people do understand that not all rock dust’s are of equal benefit! I had ordered a dictionary but it was confiscated under the newly imposed stringent rules, so instead I have to ask you to consult a dictionary German-English, for terms you don’t understand . I apologize; I have no access to my trusty dictionaries and my ever-handy library. I am basically crippled, hamstrung by being cut off from my resources so if my efforts read pedestrians (is poor in nutritional value) that I owe of the reasons- also the prison diet also a vast improvement over the U.S. and Canadian prison diet-because I can buy green stuff like cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce lemons etc… The problem is frequently other prisoners have descended on the prison store like locusts before it is my turn-and much of it is sold out like it used to be in East German stores before the wall came down where people lined up for hours only to find that the store shelves were empty.
In the beginning I had thought and written Ingrid that the prison doctor had politely listened to my request for the materials needed for the Dr. Budwig Cancer prevention diet and obviously thought that I was looney. Like in Canada and the U.S.A. they are restricted to only orthodox chemical medicines. The fact that over half of the population now goes alternative routes via Vitamins, food supplements, natural healing does not improve these drug pushers in white coats in spite of the fact that the failure of their lies and orthodox treatments stares them in the face from the overflowing hospitals bursting with customers/patients Cancer wards the thousands of heart bypass operations not even morgues full of cadavers and graveyards full of their failures convinces these people to look, listen and re-evaluate their dismal failure in sickness prevention! It is a crime in progress! One day we will look back in astonishment at this supposedly enlightened scientific age, with utter astonishment. Our grandchildren will wonder about the queer notions and alchemy like treatments we used on our sick people in the dark middle ages!
Our nutritional habits and our treatment of cancer will astonish our descendants if there are indeed descendents; at the moment a doubtful prospect! Dr. Francis Pottenger’s “cat Studies” and our current feeding habits make me seriously doubt that there will be much of a future.
It was Pottenger really who pioneered these topics at least in America where I first came across these important issues. He joined together with Dr. Weston Price, DDS, who wrote a book on nutrition and Degeneration, which put the finger on certain parts of the problem, mainly the eating of highly processed, superheated, steamed, pasteurized, homogenized and sterilized, i.e. transformed foods. Depleted soils barely entered their work [Pottenger and Price]. They of course lived in the U.S.A. till the 1950’s or 1960’s when they wrote their books and made known their studies.
At the time the topic of soil remineralization/rejuvenation was little discussed in public or even academia! So they can be forgiven. But they did point out that heat applied to food, meat, fruits, vegetables, grains, juices, and milk had a disastrous effect on man and beast alike. Soil depletion devastates our health.
I soon realized that “remineralisation of the soil” was of fundamental importance, that’s why I advocate the use of glacial dust and not just a single kind of rock- because these glaciers, pummeled, scraped, ground, crushed, collected, carried along the residue of thousands of miles of mountains and valleys, deporting this “debris” in what is known as glacial moraines. The glaciers literally mineralized the soil with every type of rock, basalt, granites, etc… Before the ban on my mail enclosures, someone had sent me a few computer generated color added maps of glacial activities over Southern Germany (my region) it’s typically German in it’s thoroughness!
Armed with these maps you could hop in your car and take along a shovel a pick a few buckets and fetch the rock of you choice in your immediate neighborhood the maps are that detailed it’s like having a map for the “Lost Dutchman Mine” you can actually see where obvious meteorites hit the area because there are signs of clearly overgrown impact craters but what produced such violent impacts, when they hit the earths surface that little fissures erupted with volcanic activity around the outer rim marked in red on the map. It shows the Famous Kaiserstuhl (a dormant volcano) famous in our region for it’s special wine and delicious fruits, vegetables, etc… It’s near Freiburg in the Rhein Valley maybe 80-90 kms away from where I was born! So finding this life spending rock wont be a problem even live in America where it is in full view and plain right not even overgrown.
In the U.S. you can just roll up with your big caterpillar bulldozer on a flatbed truck. Some oil drums, a front end loader, and some of those 300 ton monster trucks to haul that stuff to the grinding-crushing machines, where in 10-15 minutes the job will be done a conveyor belt dumps the fine powder into the railroad freight cars which take it to market! A few million dollars that’s all it would take - just a few lousy millions- it’s a cinch. But here comes the problem, “It’s human habit,” People, especially farmers and peasants, they are one conservative hard to convince bunch of people! But it can be done; there is no doubt in my mind. However that only solves part of the problem! We can spread that magic rock on fields and gardens and create mineral, vitamin loaded, Enzyme-brimming produce and fruit- in abundance!
If we persist in making our apples, pears, and peaches into apple sauce and jam, by heating them and by adding white sugars or artificial sweeteners like aspartame, then we have achieved zero. If we turn our spinach our tomatoes, our carrots, our potatoes, into canned goods by boiling and cooking the hell out of them, we will kill all the enzymes and vitamins in the preserving and the cooking process-and transform them into the bad available organic minerals into dead, inorganic un-absorbable, sometimes harmful inorganic stuff. Which does not feed our organism anymore or any better than the deadly chemical fertilized food produced today so we will have achieved zero, despite all our efforts! That revelation dawned on me slowly in prison in Toronto-even more so here, Because the Germans eat basically the same stuff prepared in the same “modern” but disastrous way, and they have the same diseases to prove it.
They are lagging one generation behind the Americans only because they have not been as “prosperous” as the Americans for as long! Since they lost the war and the Americans won it. But perversely, we are losing the peace together - victor and vanquished are exterminating themselves via “ Suicide by Shopping-Cart” and this is the crucial point because we both cook our food to death by “fire treating it.”
The most wonderful lovingly grown tomato is dead as a doornail- once it has been turned into tomato- ketchup, or tomato sauce, same for the wonderful spinach or these delicious peaches, pears and apples- alles ist kaput! Dead! Useless! Therefore it is the food preparation and the form in which we consume it, that is of the utmost importance. We as a species went off the rail 15,000-20,000 years ago when we began to “fire treat” our food! That’s the real key to the mystery! We simply have to eat most of our food (raw) and what cannot be eaten like that, like raw meat, or raw potatoes- have simply to be replaced by more fruit and vegetables in forms that are not “heat-murdered”. It’s as simple and as basic as that. And as difficult to accomplish!
All the best Ernst.
