GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY
politely answering everybody who writes me, this “social” worker takes
that as a sign that I cannot be reintegrated into society. What is expected
of me to get reintegrated? That I “disintegrate” myself completely, that
is to say, that I isolate myself, that I turn almost autistic?
Then there are various statements of solidarity by prominent individuals,
such as the row of university professors from several countries
and disciplines who wrote affidavits on occasion of my application for
political asylum in the U.S., explaining that I am a victim of illegal political
persecution in Germany and therefore ought to obtain asylum in
the U.S. We will get back to these letters later on. 136 There is moreover
the censure of prominent opponents of revisionists against this political
persecution of dissidents, foremost the German historian Götz Aly, the
late doyen of Holocaust research Raul Hilberg, and the U.S. professor
of Jewish studies Deborah Lipstadt, who all, on occasion of the sentencing
of British historian David Irving for his revisionist statements in
Austria in early 2006, spoke out against the prosecution of revisionists,
as did the famous critic of Zionism Prof. Dr. Norman Finkelstein. 137
Solidarity can also be heard from the media, in particular from
abroad. First of all the Muslim world is to be mentioned here, which
cannot surprise. They lay their fingers into the West’s wound, which
claims to fight for democracy and civil rights in the Middle East, but
who at the same time locks up its own dissidents in its prisons. This
way the West loses all its credibility in the Muslim world.
On occasion of the verdict against David Irving one could once more
hear critical voices from England, as so often during the past ten years.
First there was the internationally highly renowned magazine Index on
Censorship, which opposes censorship on a worldwide basis, yet also
the dailies spoke out, such as the left-wing Manchester Guardian,
which described in a pointed way the absurd attempts of continental
European countries to prescribe historiography by means of the penal
law. It is apparent that the media particularly in such countries which do
not prosecute revisionists are considerably more critical about this persecution
than the media in prosecuting countries, which is no surprise
either, as the journalists and editors in prosecuting countries have to
reckon with legal prosecution and social persecution as well, if they
expose themselves too much.
