Strange Days... Indeed - #256

My Take On It
One of the regular posts to the UFO UpDates List every week is Joe Trainor's UFO Roundup with various news stories, but one piece of news that was removed from the UFO Roundup post for this week concerns a - and I'm struggling here to try and keep civil - piece of absolute garbage titled, "Zundel: A Ufologist Held As A "Special Prisoner" and it is a story that portrays Ernst Zundel as a Ufologist who is being held by CSIS, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, because he has spoken out against CSIS and his knowledge of UFOs is being suppressed. Oh my... poor Ernst. The reality of why Ernst Zundel is being held in prison has nothing to do with UFOs or his 'supposed' knowledge of them. Ernst Zundel is being held in prison because he is a hate-mongering creature that has been spouting Neo-Nazi doctrine almost from the moment he learned how to speak. Ernst Zundel believes that the holocaust that killed over 6 million Jews during world war two did not happen and he will gladly tell anyone that wants to listen or read his hate propaganda - this incredible lie. He has theories and stories and has manipulated facts and figures that he will put out to support his propaganda and he makes me mad! The reason he makes me mad is not even because he believes or spouts such gross vomitt, but that he also would have us buy into a doctrine of Neo-Nazism that preaches such things as 'racial superiority' and 'racial purity' and he does whatever it takes to get his hate propaganda out there. Jeff Rense of Rense.com has many articles on his site concerning Ernst Zundel and almost all of them are about various books that Zundel has self-published about UFOs, Nazi Saucers, secret bases in Antartica, and on the moon, etc. To be blunt, Zundel is trying a little sleight of hand by trying to disseminate his hate propaganda by telling us about UFOs. Now I can hear some of the conspiracy theorists out there saying that portraying Ernst Zundel as an advocate of Neo-nazism is some kind of government plot to discredit what he says about UFOs. Well, first, I don't work for the government and I will use Zundel's own words to show what he really thinks about UFOs. He was interviewed by a gentleman called Frank Miele and Frank reports about asking him a question concerning Zundel's book, 'UFOs: Nazi Secret Weapons?', "In a later phone conversation, Zundel told me that the UFO book was in fact a ploy. I realised that North Americans were not interested in being educated. They want to be entertained. The book was for fun. With a picture of the Fuhrer on the cover and flying saucers coming out of Antarctica it was a chance to get on radio and TV talk shows. For about 15 minutes of an hour program I'd talk about that esoteric stuff. Then I would start talking about all those Jewish scientists in concentration camps, working on these secret weapons. 'And that was my chance to talk about what I wanted to talk about,' said Zundel." Basically what Zundel is doing with his UFO information is using it to wrap up the stinking pile of garbage, and believe me, I am holding back here, so that he can get innocent people to take it into their homes. In other words, take a pile of bull, paint it with a can of gold paint and try to get people to buy it as something valuable. I want it on the record right now that Zundel is not by any stretch of the imagination, a Ufologist or even has any kind of real interest in ufology. He is in a Canadian Prison because he is trying to become a Canadian Citizen, something that I am proud to be, and I am embarrassed to think that we would have someone like Zundel trying to lay claim to that status. He'll try to hide behind our laws and will try to make use of them to get out and continue his campaign of hate mongering and lies. This latest story about him being incarcerated because our government is trying to hide the truth about what Zundel knows about UFOs is just a feeble attempt by him to get money to pay for his defense and to try and play on the sympathies of people in Canada and the United States. Zundel is also trying to play the part of a Political Refugee because he fears being deported to Germany. But that doesn't fly either. Rex Murphy of the Globe and Mail said, "If Ernst Zundel is a refugee, Daffy Duck is Albert Einstein" and I will go one further that if Ernst Zundel is a Ufologist, then Mel Blanc, the famous voice of Marvin the Martian is an alien from another planet. But that's just my take on it.....
