GERMAR RUDOLF, RESISTANCE IS OBLIGATORYme ambiguously that we would make it out with me “outside,” whichwas probably a threat that he intended to beat me up.Well, I have never gotten involved in a fistfight in my entire adultlife, probably for the simple reason that nobody seems to have dared toattack an athletic man of 6’5.” If I was accosted by someone in the past,then this happened always while I sat or squatted. In these cases it alwaysproved enough to just stand up in order to swiftly resolve the situationpeacefully. And so it was in this case, for I am with distance thetallest inmate in this prison. When I got up during morning break, theGerman-Russian had apparently forgotten that he had wanted to have itout with me.Yet the media do not just lie by themselves, but they are also slavishlyat service when it comes to uncritically spreading the lies of others,especially when it is about historical dissidents. For this your pressrelease may serve as an example, Mr. Prosecutor, which you sent tonews agencies on 18 April 2006 on occasion of your filing your indictment.This press release was then passed on by the German news agencydpa in a slightly edited version to all media outlets, which publishedthem duly. 248 I may direct your attention to the following sentence inyour press release:“The ‘revisionists’ Germar Rudolf and Siegfried Verbeke are accusedof have systematically denied and trivialized the genocidecommitted by National Socialism against the Jews by means of theInternet and of the dissemination of literature, as well as of havingincited to hatred against the Jewish population with anti-Semitic agitation.”As a reaction to this, dpa issued these lines, among others:“According to the investigators they also are said to have incitedto hatred against Jews with anti-Semitic agitation.”“With anti-Semitic agitation” – that sounds pretty gory. Well, I haveread the indictment several times, but nowhere have I found the words“anti-Semitic” or “anti-Semitism” or anything similar. Maybe yousimply forgot to use this term, but it is a fact that it is not in there. Thefollowing question arises then, though: How was it that you, right afterthe indictment’s ink had dried, were able to sit down and claim suchuntruths about the very indictment you yourself had just written, anddisseminate them into the world?248 E.g. in the German daily Stuttgarter Zeitung, 19 April 2006, p. 8.201
