Copenhagen, Monday, February 23, 2004 An
Evening with Hitler's Spin-doctor
[Danish
original] Ekstra
Bladet's reporter has infiltrated the Danish inner
circle of academicians and half educated
Nazis. By Kaare Quist WE are laughing loudly at the
Jews, who claim that they have lost whole families
in the gas chambers of the Nazis. We shake our
heads agreeably at the Holocaust industry, which
lives off the Jews' vulgar and false tales of
suffering. Thanks to my false identity as an unemployed
historian with the correct racist attitude, I have
for several days been part of the handful of men,
who constitute David Irving's Danish inner
circle. Glen, my neighbour at the table, is outraged
when he tells about the Jewish witnesses, who in
reality never have sat their fat feet in a
concentration camp. - They have probably made their
own damned striped pyjamas, he says in such a loud
voice, that a middle-aged married couple at the
neighbouring table is staring at us. But we are
just grinning back. David
Irving comments: ONE of the members who sat for two
hours around the table on Saturday -- in
an otherwise empty side room of the
Falconer hotel, Copenhagen -- was in fact
a journalist, who wrote this despicable
article. It bears little resemble to the
actual
discussion -- presumably because
Ekstra-Bladet would not have bought
it from him otherwise. There was no
discussion whatever by me of the Jews, or
the Holocaust. Both are topics which
bore. The Journalist had not
been invited by us, but no doubt in good
faith by Prof. Christian Lindtner,
a Copenhagen academic, who will however in
consequence no longer be welcome at our
functions; we make it a point of principle
that media representatives are not welcome
to attend, as they have done us few
favours in the past. | We are grinning at the reporters, who do not
understand anything. The former lecturer at the
University of Copenhagen, Christian
[Lindtner], says:- I am dreaming that a reporter will ask me why
I do not believe that Hitler gassed the Jews, "Show
me a picture of a gas chamber", I will answer. Then
they will go to the archives and return with a
picture of the crematories. "No, no, little friend.
I said a gas chamber - not a crematorium", I will
then say. - And we can go on, until the stupid reporter
finally understands. There are no real pictures of
a gas chamber. Because they have never existed. The inner circle It is Saturday evening,
and I am a participant in a secret and very private
dinner [Website note: a
private luncheon, 3 p.m.] with Hitler's
spin-doctor - the notorious
Nazi-liar and falsifier of
history David Irving. Thanks to my false identity as an unemployed
historian with the correct racist attitude, I have
for several days been part of the little handful of
men, who constitute David Irving's Danish inner
circle. Several of the person in attendance know each
other from the society "Danish Society for Free
Historical Research", where Christian plays a
prominent role. Earlier this day David Irving should have spoken
at "Waldes Jægerhytte" at Nörrebro. The
lecture is cancelled, because a newspaper has
revealed the address. - This is the reason why we
arrange a little informal meeting later this
afternoon. It would be nice if you and your
colleague could come, the invitation from Christian
sounds in the telephone. Lektor in uniform Now the affected man
sits in front of me, dressed in a jacket and a
beige knitted coat printed with the word
"Polizei". We are a little closed circle of six men.
Assembled in the exclusive restaurant at the
Radisson SAS Hotel at Fredriksberg for some food
and a good-natured smearing of the Jews. A reporter from Ekstra Bladet with a
false name. My "colleague" who is accompanying me
is, as a matter of fact, a real historian. He will
see to that I am shielded, if the gaps in my
knowledge of history are too striking. Glenn, my neighbour at the table, turns out to
be a 23 years old student, who in his spare time is
working on getting rid of Genocide. Glenn is
webmaster at holocaust.no - a homepage which is
persistently claiming, the no Jews were gassed. Nor
does Glen conceal that he is an anti-semite. - It is easy to be one in this group. Christian
is after all my mentor, he says, and he calls
attention to the lecturer, who honoured nods
back. At the end of the table David Irving is
throning, like an angry bull in a dark blue
pullover. He looks like he is not impressed by the
company. In addition he is in low spirit, because
an Italian restaurant has turned him down earlier
this evening, because they recognized him from the
television. [Website
note: this is pure fiction; Mr Irving worked all
day in my room, and came to the hotel for this
afternoon luncheon.] Irving's court snake At the left of
Irving sits the riddle of the evening, the man
behind the Englishman's visit to Denmark. His name
is Robert Alexander. A semi-strong and
nervous man in a light blue shirt and a green
oil-skin jacket. Christian explains, that Robert Alexander has
studied history at the university, but that he
never finished. He has never left home, it later
turns out. Exactly what his occupation is, no one seems to
know. But it is Robert Alexander, who is the person
who is financing David Irving's visit. Like a humble and servile court snake he trails
in the footsteps of the English historian.
Alexander pays and pays. For the taxis, at the
restaurants, at the hotels.
[Website note: This is
true, the over-generous Mr Craft found himself
paying for this un-invited journalist's
meal.] Ruined liar Because David Irving, after
losing a fortune on a trial, lacks money. In return
he has the court's statement that he is a racist, a
falsifier of history and an anti-semite, and that
he associates with neo-Nazis. This evening Irving is not exactly a man who
spreads joy, when he alternates between humiliating
his benefactor Robert Alexander and his supine
admirer Christian in the Polizei- coat. Robert Alexander has unfortunately an unlucky
tendency to lose focus, when Irving unfolds the
finer details of the lost trial. -
Do I bore you? Irving's voice sounds like a crack
of a whip, when Robert Alexander looses
concentration. - Maybe you are leaving?, the Englishman flashes
a little later, because Robert Alexander has not
taken off his oil-skin jacket during the
dinner. Praises Hitler It is another thing with
Christian. He has a tendency to laugh at the
completely wrong moments. For example when Irving
suddenly announces, that he is bored with the
Holocaust, after the lost trial. And so the evening elapses. Sometimes we have a
good laugh of the Jews, to soften the conflicts a
little. Then David Irving praises Hitler - and
immediately the good atmosphere returns.
[Website note: This is a
travesty of the actual discussion, for which see
our
account published before this news
story.] Like a well-oiled war machine we work our way
through the courses of beef tenderloin, fish, red
wine, dessert, coffee and even an liqueur. The
staff serve us with smiles, while they pretend not
to listen to what we are talking about. At the end of the afternoon we are joined by a
red-haired man, who is only named Ib. It is only
Robert who knows him, and the only thing he says
this afternoon, is that he has nothing to do with
those pictures on the internet. "A man of honour" At 1015 p.m. David
Irving signals that the audience is at an end. One
by one we thank for an unforgettable evening
[sic] in an
excessive and servile way. The alcohol has made the stiff Englishman a
little more relaxed, but he stubbornly refuses to
allow being photographed.
[Website note:By this
time it was apparent to Mr Irving that there was
something odd about this importunate writer, and he
was in conseqence not informed of subsequent plans.
The photograph taken by the journalist shows
Lindtner in a McDonald's an hour or two after the
meeting.] In return he invites all to
his secret speech the day after.
[Website note: so how
come the journalist was not told where it
was!.] - Tomorrow at 0300 p.m. - the same place, the
invitation sounds. Christian responds by solemnly
designating David Irving to a man of honour. An evening with Hitler's spin-doctor is at an
end. -
