Resistance

GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORYHence, if the equal treatment as mandated by the German Basic Lawexists, nobody’s honor is insulted by my publications, and there istherefore no conflict with the civil rights of others.The third and last restriction to free speech as listed in article 5, paragraph2, concerns the law for the protection of the youth. According toa decision by the German Constitutional High Court, censorship forreasons of protecting the youth is permissible only, if a danger to theyouth derives “always and typically” from the thusly censored views.These empty word shells open the floodgates to arbitrariness, though. Iwill get back to that later.There used to be a time when I was proud of the fact that, in contrastto the constitutions of other countries, the German Basic Law not onlyguarantees freedom of speech, but in addition to that also and expresslythe freedom of research, teaching, and science. Today, however, I considerthis division of free speech into scientific and non-scientific opinionsto be a tragedy, because it leads to a two-class system of freespeech law. Whereas freedom of speech for laymen, that is: nonscientists,can be easily restricted by simple laws, it remains unfetteredfor scientists and researchers.Should a researcher get obstreperous, however, then the state swiftlydisenfranchises him of the status as a scientist and prosecutes him as a“pseudo-scientist” or lay person. This two-class law therefore permitsthe state to keep everybody perfectly in leading strings while maintainingthe illusory impression of maximum freedom.The thesis about the conflict between civil rights as maintained bythe German jurisdiction is wrong also because most Jews would be horrified,if they knew that impeccable scientists are being persecuted intheir name. No Jew reading my books with common sense will findanything malicious or inciting in them.In this context I may once more mention my former Jewish girlfriendJodi Keating and her family, who clearly prove my claim, as theyhad no problems at all with my views. I may also mention that there area number of Jewish revisionists, among them for example David Cole,who I had the honor to call a friend. During the early and mid-1990s heworked closely together with various revisionists and stepped into thebackground only after he had received death threats by his co-religionistsdue to his involvement. I may also mention Israel Shamir as mylast example. In the 1960s Shamir immigrated to Israel from the USSRand participated as a soldier in Israel’s wars. He later became a journal-127
