GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORY<br />

That government agencies aren’t always very meticulous about the<br />

truth when it comes to agitate against revisionists can be seen from yet<br />

another case, in which your retired former colleague Hans-Heiko Klein<br />

plays the main role next to me. In a long article about Klein’s career as<br />

a revisionist hunter, the Sunday issue Sonntag Aktuell of the German<br />

daily Stuttgarter Zeitung wrote on 1 Jan. 2006:<br />

“<strong>Germar</strong> <strong>Rudolf</strong> for instance, who thanks to Klein currently sits<br />

in Stammheim [=Stuttgart prison], wrote in his Holocaust denying<br />

‘Quarterly for free Historical Research’: [249] ‘It borders in fact at a<br />

miracle that Heiko Klein is still alive.’ Blatant threats which do not<br />

deter the intrepid state attorney.”<br />

It is not clear whether this statement stems from the journalist writing<br />

the article or from Herr Klein, hence I cannot blame Herr Klein for<br />

this. Fact is that my statement in said article has been turn point-blank<br />

upside down. In this section of that journal article I had discussed a<br />

statement by the then and also current director of the U.S. Institute for<br />

Historical Review Mark Weber. In his speech he had stated that the hysteria<br />

against the political right rampant at that time in Germany – which<br />

was even termed as such by the leftist news magazine Spiegel 250 –<br />

would impute a dangerousness to the so-called right-wing scene in<br />

Germany which was utterly out of touch with reality. If the rightwingers<br />

were as dangerous as claimed, they would have long since attacked<br />

government persecutors of the right like Hans-Heiko Klein. In<br />

my article I paraphrased Weber’s statement – hence these weren’t even<br />

my own words – in order to subsequently explain why I am opposed to<br />

violence. This was also one of the reasons why I refused to publish the<br />

names and perhaps even the addresses of state attorneys and judges who<br />

are persecuting right-wingers and revisionists for their peaceful expressions<br />

of opinion – because I had repeatedly been asked by my readers to<br />

do this. I wanted to prevent any potential misuse of such lists for violent<br />

ends under any circustances. Yet inspite of this, the left-wing extremist<br />

denouncer magazine blick nach rechts (view to the right) printed an<br />

article a few months later, in which the lie was invented that I had<br />

called for the assassination of Hans-Heiko Klein, although the exact<br />

opposite of this is true. And since this flam paper was obviously considered<br />

to be a reliable source of information to the German red-green fed-<br />

249 Vierteljahrsheften für freie Geschichtsforschung.<br />

250 German news magazine Spiegel, edition of 4 Dec. 2000.<br />
