That's Their Story And They're Sticking It To It....

via Majority Rights,

Germany:

Regensburg District Attorney Guenther Ruckdaeschel said authorities were investigating whether the remarks can be considered “inciting racial hatred.” Denying the Holocaust is a crime in Germany, punishable by up to five years in prison.

… Ruckdaeschel decided to launch his investigation in Regensburg because the Williamson interview was conducted at a seminar of the Society of Saint Pius X, of which Williamson is a member, in the nearby town of Zaitzkofen.

… Ruckdaeschel says he will attempt to question the two Swedish reporters who conducted the interview. He said it was unlikely Williamson would have to appear in court because he is currently in Argentina, but the bishop may be required to submit a written statement in the case.


Argentina:

Richard Williamson, the British-born bishop whose excommunication was reversed by Pope Benedict XVI in January, is now the subject of a complaint before an Argentine federal court. The 68-year-old bishop stands accused of denying the Holocaust, according to evidence presented before Judge Julian Ercolini. In addition to

Tuesday’s complaint, he may face further charges. The head of Argentina’s National Institute against Discrimination (INADI), Maria Jose Lubertino, said Williamson would also have to correct or confirm his claims. “He is obliged to clarify the veracity of his claims. We are going to make a formal legal complaint and he may face up to three years in prison,” Lubertino said.

The institute has asked for copies of a Swedish television interview in which Williamson negates the existence of gas chambers in the extermination of six million Jews, Roma, and others during the regime led by Adolph Hitler.

France:

A French human rights group says it will press charges against a Holocaust-denying British bishop.

The International League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism said Wednesday in a statement that it would charge Richard Williamson with “contesting crimes against humanity” and denying the Holocaust in an article published in the German der Spiegel magazine and in a television interview.

In an interview published Monday in der Spiegel, Williamson said he needed “proof” that the Nazis used gas chambers to murder Jews during the Holocaust, despite a recent request by Pope Benedict XVI that the rehabilitated bishop distance himself from such views.

The pope’s January reinstatement of Williamson after 20 years of excommunication caused a global outcry.

A Wednesday poll by the daily Le Parisien showed 70 percent of French respondents disapproved of the pope’s decision to reinstate Williamson and three other ultra-conservative bishops. Some 27 percent said they approved.

From The Times:

Bishop Richard Williamson ordered to leave Argentina

An English bishop who denies the holocaust has been ordered to leave Argentina.

Bishop Richard Williamson has been give ten days to leave the country or face expulsion after global controversy over his views and the Vatican’s attitudes towards them.

The Argentine Interior Ministry said Bishop Williamson’s statements on the Holocaust “profoundly insult Argentine society, the Jewish community and all of humanity by denying an historic truth” ...


There is only one other instance in the world today that I can think of that compares to a man being threatened, prosecuted and expelled from nations for denying a dogma....Islam. In Islamic societies men and women are often prosecuted and persecuted for denying the faith.

Judaism and Islam; birds of a feather.

And if the extent to which Bishop Williamson is being harassed, persecuted, demonized in the media and threatened with prosecution in different nations on different continents is not a testimony to the unprecedented power of international jewry, nothing ever will be.

As for the story, well,

Rabbi Wise's Address

'There are 6,000,000 living, bleeding, suffering arguments in favor of Zionism. They come not to beg, but ask for that which is higher than all material things. They seek to have satisfied the unquenchable thirst after the ideal. They ask to become once again the messengers of right, justice, and humanity."
