Dear Mr Castan
I have been shown the text
of a speech made by you on March 17, 1993 at the B'nai
B'rith Centre in Melbourne in which you purported to
translate a speech I made in Halle one November
9.
You committed a number of
gross translating inaccuracies, which do not particularly
concern me; you however also state: "And in his name he
[Irving] puts up his hand: 'Sieg Heil!'"
This is a particularly gross and offensive lie, and I
must ask that you withdraw it in writing to me within
four weeks.
Yours sincerely,
David Irving
To: Ron Castan,
Melbourne,
past president,
Victoria Council of Civil liberties.
