I
shall without further notice issue a Claim in
Defamation against yourselves and the author or
authors of the libel. David
Irving Windsor,
Monday, October 8, 2007 - To: The Legal Department
- The Jewish Chronicle.

Dear Sirs, The purpose of this letter: This
letter puts your publication on notice that if you
should print or otherwise publish anywhere
including on your Internet website any statement
carrying the defamatory and now demonstrably untrue
meaning, whether implicit or explicit, that I am
"an active Holocaust denier", or any variations on
that phrase carrying the same purport, then I shall
without further notice issue a Claim in Defamation
against yourselves and the author or authors of the
libel, and I shall produce this letter at the
hearing of the action as evidence that you
published the said libel in the face of such a
written warning in support of a possible claim for
aggravated damages. Argument: I refer you to the many
statements I have made in public which are a matter
of record and will destroy any pleaded defence of
justification. These include but are not limited to
my biographies
of Dr Joseph Goebbels (1996) and
of
Hitler (1977, 1991, and 2002), where
I
describe in detail the mass shootings of Jews and
others behind the eastern front.
My statements in both
the Lipstadt trial (2000) and
the
Vienna trial (2005) left no doubt that
I believe (accepting that the Höfle
document and Korherr
report are authentic and not
forgeries) the Nazis and their accomplices murdered
2.4 million Jews in the "Reinhardt" camps along the
Bug River (Treblinka, Belzec, and Sobibor); minor
question arise over Auschwitz,
but Holocaust historians have also asked them.
I have demonstrably stated so in public
since 1991 (my discovery of the Adolf
Eichmann files), 1992 (my discovery of
the
Hans Aumeier manuscripts and
subsequently the full
exploitation of the CSDIC files): you
will find these statements throughout my website
(go to www.fpp.co.uk/search)
and repeated in my interview with The Guardian
newspaper published on September 29, which you can
read most easily at www.fpp.co.uk/online/07/09/Guardian_interview.html,
and repeated
in The Forward, the foremost US Jewish
newspaper (ibid.,
/online/07/09/Forward.html). The
published diaries of my recent visits to these
death camps will destroy any doubts you might still
entertain: www.fpp.co.uk/docs/Irving/RadDi/2007/020307.html
et seq. Notice: Should you recklessly and
maliciously repeat the lie as defined in the first
paragraph to this letter -- as you may feel tempted
to do now -- I shall issue and serve a Claim in
Defamation without further notice. Yours faithfully
