GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY<br />

ist, yet became disenchanted due to the way the <strong>Is</strong>raeli authorities and<br />

settlers treated the Palestinians. Ever since he has been increasingly<br />

supportive of the Palestinians’ human rights struggle. Several years ago<br />

he even converted to Christianity, which renders it questionable whether<br />

one can still call him a Jew, depending on whether one considers the<br />

term to be religious or ethnic, a topic upon which not even the Jews can<br />

agree.<br />

At any rate, since the second Intifada Shamir has been at the forefront<br />

of that civil rights movement which insists on equal rights for Palestinians.<br />

Shamir’s son was one of the heroes of the International Solidarity<br />

Movement who, while risking their own lives, helped those Palestinians<br />

with food supplies who had sought refuge in the Church of<br />

Nativity during the siege of Bethlehem by the <strong>Is</strong>raeli occupational forces<br />

around Easter of 2002. Several months ago Mr. Shamir asked me<br />

why I am prepared to risk so much for my persuasions. He published<br />

my answer to him on 16 Sept. 2006 on the Internet with an introductory<br />

comment of his, which I may quote here: 151<br />

this exclusivity claim, and thus a duty of non-racist and/or a Christian.<br />

<strong>Germar</strong> <strong>Rudolf</strong> is a scientist dissident who was recently torn from<br />

his young wife and baby in the United States and extradited to his<br />

native Germany to stand trial for a scientific investigation of Auschwitz,<br />

the best-selling <strong>Rudolf</strong> Report. Born in 1964, he is one of the<br />

youngest high-profile Revisionists who came out of the post-war<br />

generation – young folks as a rule brutally brain-washed with conventional<br />

Holocaust lore. <strong>Germar</strong>, as we know, is different.”<br />

I mention this here in order to emphasize that one cannot make<br />

sweeping statements about the Jews, but that the German state cannot<br />

sweepingly claim the Jews as a justification for the persecution of innocent<br />

dissidents either. Because that is in my eyes exactly what the Federal<br />

Republic of Germany is doing in order to cook their own political<br />

brew behind that pretext. In fact, the conflict is not between the Jews<br />

and me, but between the German state and me. In their aforementioned<br />

book, Seifert und Hömig have expressed the same view, i.e., that the<br />
