SHATTERED by his ordeal in cross examination at the hands of Zündel's counsel Douglas Christie, Browning refused to testify again in the later Zündel trials, not wanting to go through that -- ever -- again.
  In the Lipstadt trial, he behaved badly: he tried to withdraw evidence in his report when Mr Irving spotted that he had deliberately omitted passages from his selected passages from the so-called Gerstein Report which completely invalidated his arguments and exposed Kurt Gerstein as a liar.
   The judge ordered that both versions of the Browning report be introduced in the Lipstadt trial, which provided Mr Irving with a happy hunting ground in his cross examination of this "scholar".
