Dear Ambassador M.
Jarad Zarif,
I would like to
congratulate your
President and
government for
exposing European
and American
hypocrisy and double
standards in regard
to the so-called
Jewish Holocaust
doctrine. Herewith.
In reference, I
believe, to Zionism
and certain Western
governments,
President
Ahmadinejad was
quoted as saying:
“They have
fabricated a legend
under the name of
Massacre of the
Jews, and they hold
it higher than God
himself, religion
itself and the
prophets
themselves. If
somebody in their
country questions
God, nobody says
anything, but if
somebody denies the
myth of the massacre
of the Jews, the
Zionist loudspeakers
and the governments
in the pay of
Zionism will start
to scream.”
In our Western
society, hypocrisy
abounds. It is
socially and morally
acceptable for Jews
and others to write
books that blatantly
offend the Christian
and Islamic
religions, but it is
absolutely and
positively, “evil
and immoral” for
anyone to publish
books and make
statements that
challenge the
so-called “sacred
doctrine” of the
Jewish Holocaust.
Let me give you
three examples to
demonstrate my
point.
Many years ago,
Jewish intellectual
Hugh Schonfeld
published a book
entitled The
Passover Plot.
The book’s thesis is
that Christianity is
one big, baldfaced
lie. According to
Schonfeld, Jesus
Christ planned his
own arrest,
crucifixion and
resurrection. He
arranged to be
drugged on the
cross, simulating
death so that he
could later be
safely removed and
thus bear out the
Messianic
prophesies.
Schonfeld was never
deported from his
home in London to a
prison cell in a
Christian country
for his
anti-Christian
writings, nor were
his publishers
deported to prison
cells. Quite the
contrary! His book
was published by a
respected United
States mainstream
publisher (Bantam
Books) and
sympathetically
reviewed and
discussed in
respected mainstream
US media outlets.1
Even 30 years after
Schonfeld published
his book, in the mid
1990s, I saw
American religion
professors at
distinguished
universities calmly
refer to and discuss
his ideas.
Also many years ago,
University of
Manchester
intellectual John
Allegro published
his The Sacred
Mushroom and the
Cross. Once
again, the book’s
thesis is that
Christianity is one
big fraud, and the
concept of the
Christian God is a
drug-induced
hallucination. The
man we know as Jesus
Christ was the
illusory
personification of a
fertility cult based
on the use of a
psychedelic drug.
Once again,
Allegro’s book was
published by
respected mainstream
publishers in the
United States
(Doubleday, Bantam),
and discussed in
respected US media
outlets.2 Allegro
was never deported
to a prison cell for
his anti-Christian
writings. Once
again, more than 30
years after the
publication of his
book, I witnessed
learned religion
professors at
institutions of
higher learning
calmly discuss his
ideas.
For a most recent
example, consider
the case of Dr.
Michael Shermer, a
boring and
intellectually
mediocre atheist
that bolstered his
career by promoting
the Jewish Holocaust
ideology. Shermer,
founder of Skeptics
Society, has a long
track record of
attacking religion
and the concept of
God. Shermer
suffers no
persecution or
harassment. Quite
the contrary! He is
a respected figure
in academic circles
and is also a media
celebrity.
These three examples
support President
Ahmadinejad’s
statements.
Throughout most of
Europe and the
United States you
can openly deny the
existence of God and
lampoon and
criticize the
Christian and
Islamic religions.
Yet, the Jewish
Holocaust doctrine
is protected by a
system of legal and
extra-legal
prohibitions and
taboos. If one
questions and
disputes the
Holocaust ideology,
you can suffer
severe persecution
here in the US and
end up in prison in
Europe.
Furthermore, the
administration of
President George W.
Bush is guilty of
aiding and abetting
this hypocritical
double standard.
Herewith.
In a public
statement issued on
December 10, 2005,
President George W.
Bush called for the
immediate and
unconditional
release of prisoners
of conscience by the
Syrian authorities,
labeling the
imprisonment of
these individuals as
an example of the
government of
Syria’s ongoing
repression of Syrian
people. I will
quote directly from
President Bush’s
statement: “As we
commemorate Human
Rights Day, we call
attention to the
continued
imprisonment in
Syria of Dr. Kamal
Labwani and the many
other prisoners of
conscience whom the
Syrian authorities
have denied the
fundamental right to
freedom of opinion
and expression.”
President Bush
operates with a
hypocritical double
standard. He chided
the Syrian
government for
imprisoning Syrian
prisoners of
conscience, yet
under his
administration he
allowed the
deportation and
imprisonment of the
German prisoner of
conscience and
Holocaust
revisionist scholar
Germar Rudolf.
Mr. Rudolf, a former
chemistry doctoral
candidate at the
prestigious Max
Planck Institute, is
a German citizen who
was forced to flee
his native Germany
because he has
questioned and
refuted certain
aspects of the
Jewish Holocaust
ideology. In short,
he showed that the
so-called “Auschwitz
gas chambers” never
existed. In the
United States, near
Chicago, Revisionist
scholar Rudolf was
recently torn from
his American wife
and their child and
delivered to
Germany. He is in
prison in Stuttgart.
Just as those Syrian
intellectuals were
imprisoned because
of their beliefs and
public statements,
so too is Germar
Rudolf being
imprisoned for his
beliefs about the
Holocaust ideology.
President Bush
chided the Syrian
authorities because
they have denied Dr.
Labwani and others
their fundamental
rights to freedom of
opinion and
expression, yet he
is silent about the
German government’s
denial of Germar
Rudolf’s right to
freedom of opinion
and expression.
President Bush makes
public protests
about the Syrian
intellectuals, yet
he allows and
apparently condones
the deportation and
imprisonment of
Germar Rudolf.
This legally
formulated
persecution of
Holocaust
revisionists is in
blatant
contradiction to the
sermons President
Bush has given the
rest of the world on
“human rights and
freedom of
expression.” As
Holocaust
revisionist scholar,
Dr. Robert
Faurisson, has
pointed out: “[A]s
long as in the
United States,
Canada, nearly all
of Europe and as far
away as Australia
the revisionists are
subjected either to
special laws or
tribunals,
underhanded police
procedures, or
methodical
vilification by
media in the service
of certain Jewish or
Zionist pressure
groups, the Western
world will have ever
less right to impose
lessons of
lawfulness, morality
or democracy on
others.”
I fully realize that
President Bush will
not live up to his
publicly promulgated
dictums about “human
rights and freedom
of expression,” and
speak out against
the persecution and
imprisonment of the
Holocaust
revisionist scholar
Germar Rudolf.
However, the United
Nations Declaration
of Human Rights is
very clear and
unequivocal on the
right to freedom of
speech. It states:
“Everyone has the
right to freedom of
opinion and
expression.” By
imprisoning and
persecuting Germar
Rudolf because of
his opinions and
expressions about
the Holocaust
ideology, the German
government is guilty
of violating his
right to freedom of
opinion and
expression. And my
own government aided
and abetted this
human rights
violation.
The next time the
subject of human
rights is made a
major issue at the
United Nations, I
respectfully request
that you bring up
the persecution and
imprisonment of
Holocaust
revisionist scholar
Germar Rudolf. By
so doing, you will
be exposing the
hypocrisy,
corruption and
double standards of
Western society.
I await your
response.
Sincerely,
Paul Grubach
