MUSEUMS ARE much in vogue thes

{reported

recently on the Simon Wiesentha! ‘‘Museum of Tolerance”
_in,Los Angeles. But an apparently even bigger bang for the
propaganda buck is to be seen in the Holocaust Museum in

Washington, D.C.

- The major media again fell over
themselves to deliver unquestion-
ing coverage of the six million

’ story and we can expect more of
the same when the Spielberg boy
(he of the Jurassic Park nonsense)
completes his film on Auschwitz.
', But. do not believe the six mil-
lion story that is thrown at us
daily on TV and in the prints. Let
‘me emphasize, though, that large

-. numbers of Jews did die in the

concentration camps — as did
. Many others.

+ There were also large-scale
niassacres on the Eastern Front,

» "and David Irving is wrong when

he says they were ““My Lai-type
“ massacres,”’ i.e,, actions con-
. ducted in the heat of battle. They
were much bigger than that. And I
never heard of anyone being
court-martialled for them.
A few general points may be
, useful. ;
Winston Churchill’s memoirs
- spanned the whole of the Second
World War and the last volume
‘was published in 1954, nine years
after the war and after the
Nuremberg trials were long over.
What did he have to say about
. the six million? Nothing. There is
plenty about the persecution of
. the Jews in Hitler’s Germany, but .
nothing at all about war-time gas
‘. «chambers, etc. And if it.was true
: that 60,000 Jews a day were being.
-- disposed of, as is frequently’.
Claimed, he’ ‘could hardly have ig-
* nored-it...0 5.
* Bear in mind too that London
was cracking the German codes

and that Churchill was loyal to the -

Zionist cause — even after his
: friend; Lord Moyne, was
murdered by Jewish terrorists in
Palestine. ;
The closest he got to the subject
was a footnote mention of the
brutal deportation of the Hun~
: garian Jews to Germany in 1944,
It is a fact, also, that the Polish
~ government-in- exile: was in
constant touch with Poland. It
had spies in Auschwitz as early as

Collins

ON THE OTHER HAND

1940 and published a newspaper in
Britain called The Fortnightly
Review.

But there was no mention in it
until May 1945, when the war was
virtually over, of any mass exter-
mination of the Jews.

There were a thousand other
questions.

Why would a David Irving
bring calumny on his head by

becoming a leading “holocaust
' denier?”’ :

He once accepted the six million
story and was a top British
author, But after he changed his

.-mind he became a media leper and

his ‘‘revisionism’’ cost him a for-
tune. ©

Why, toc, would the late Paul
Rassinier write a book debunking
the story? He was a French so-
cialist, Resistance fi ghter and
concentration camp inmate
himself.

Why would Professor Robert
Faurisson of France have his aca-
deinic career ruined? Europe’s
leading ‘‘revisionist,’’ he has been

'.. dragged through the courts for .

years by a government anxious to
please French Jews. And four
years ago he was nearly killed by

Jewish thugs.

The six million story keeps
changing.

It used to be a given that four
million people perished in
Auschwitz.

In my book P.O. W. I described
it as “‘the place where millions
died.”’ Well, it’s time to confess. I
was parroting what ‘‘everyone’”’
knew.

The Polish government has now
reduced the figure to 1.5 million,
and the plaque containing the
other total has been taken down.

Further, the senior curator at
Auschwitz has admitted that the
“‘gas chamber” shown to tourists
at the camp was a reconstruction
done by the Soviets after the war.

In 1989, Israeli holocaust schol-
ar Professor Yehuda Bauer
declared: ‘‘The larger figures have
been dismissed for years, except
that it hasn’t reached the public
vet.??

He could have added that it
never will, given our conformist
media.

America’s ‘‘leading expert on
the holocaust”’ is Raul Hilberg,
who says the proper figure is 5.1
million. But he was chewed to bits
at the first Zundel trial and didn’t
come back for more in the second.

The Leuchter report, of which
you have never heard, showed that
the ‘‘mass gassings”’ were a
technical impossibility.

So what difference does it make
whether the figure was six million,
one million, or 300,000, as was
stated by the Red Cross after the
war?

Well, Abba Eban, Israel’s.
former foreign minister, once
stated, ‘‘There’s no business like
Shoah (holocaust) business.’

My change of mind began wlten
I went to the first Zundel trial as a
witness for freedom of speech,
and when I read Professor Arthur
Butz’s The Hoax of the Twentieth
Century.

Bingo proposal something new

“Dear Editor:

‘Noel. Wright in his July 30 col-
| mn raised some questions about
‘the’ proposed NorthStar Charity
Bingo Hall. 1 would like to answer
those questions. .

The bingo hail proposed by
NorthStar Charities and Anzac
Enterprises is not a Save-On
. Foods-size facility; it is more like
_. aSeven-Eleven convenience store.
-. At only 220 seats, it will be
: Smaller. than most of the other
bingo -halls on the North Shore
and. by far the smallest charity-

combine with a. mule-headed

NorthStar is proposing some-
thing new, not something larger.

The NorthStar bingo will be a
drop-in bingo facility as compared
to the regular format bingos that
are currently being operated.

The drop-in bingo appeals to a
younger, more affluent clientele.

NorthStar is being proposed to
complement,not compete with, the
existing bingo halls. .

It should also be noted that all
money, raised will stay on the

The only people on the planet
more ignorant when it comes to
making noise are Harley Davidson
tiders who believe no noise bylaws

Out of the millions won and
lost in this strike, perhaps B.C.
can afford a new set of
brakes and teach employees how
to couple trains without sending
the Richter scale off the end.
