Default Holocaust denier Fredrick Toben to serve time in jail

Holocaust denier Fredrick Toben to serve time in jail

August 13, 2009

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au...-12377,00.html

HOLOCAUST denier Fredrick Toben has been taken into custody to serve a three-month jail term over publishing offensive material on the internet.

The 64-year-old was taken from the Federal Court in Adelaide by Australian Federal Police today after losing his appeal against his conviction for contempt of court.

The Full Court of the Federal Court also ruled that his jail term, originally imposed in May this year, was in no way excessive.

"In our opinion, the sentence of three months cannot, on any stretch of the imagination, be considered excessive or unwarranted," the three-judge panel said.

The judges said Toben also had a disregard for the orders of the court and had acted to undermine the authority of the court.

Earlier this year, Toben was found guilty on 24 counts of contempt for ignoring a previous court order preventing him from publishing racist material on the Adelaide Institute website. When he later imposed a three-month sentence, Justice Bruce Lander said Toben had continued to breach those 2002 orders, which prevented him from publishing specific anti-Semitic material.

The 2002 orders stemmed from a racial discrimination case brought against him by Jeremy Jones, a former president of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry.

In his final submissions today, counsel for Toben, David Perkins, suggested the material published on the Adelaide Institute website, which questioned whether the holocaust even occurred, was just a "drop in the bucket" compared to the amount of revisionist material available on the internet.

But in their verdict, the judges said the case before them was not about the holocaust, gas chambers or the execution of Jews during World War II. They said it was about whether or not Toben had complied with orders of the court.

"Obedience to the court is not optional," they said.

As the court rose, Toben asked if he could say something to the judges, only to be cut off by Justice Jeffrey Spender who simply said, "No".

Australia toughens "anti-terror" laws amid threats

Thu, 13 Aug 2009 16:10:30 GMT

As Canberra faces a "significant threat" of attack by homegrown militants, the government has given more power to its police and will allow searches without a warrant.

Attorney General Robert McClelland said the law review would allow security forces to conduct searches if they believe bombs, biological agents or other items posing an imminent danger are on the premises.

"As the events of recent weeks demonstrate, terrorism continues to pose a real and significant threat to Australia and Australian interests both here and abroad," said McClelland.

The Attorney-General on Thursday briefed the federal parliament on the new changes that will enable the police to raid the homes of terror suspects without needing the approval of a judge.

The period during which security forces can re-enter premises in emergency situations has been extended from 30 minutes to 12 hours.

Moreover, the reviewed law also seeks to make it more difficult for suspects to be freed on bail.

The amendments come a week after five Australian men were charged with plotting a suicide gun attack on a Sydney military base.

Authorities in Canberra have gradually extended police powers to detain terror suspects following the 9/11 attacks.

Human rights groups and law experts have strongly criticized the new measures, saying they will sweep away fundamental legal safeguards.

Notice how the Jews' lackey reporter uses the term "Holocaust denier" here. A good little "journalist" would never use the objective term "revisionist." What a pathetic lickspittle.

And only in the Jews' media world would truth be deemed "offensive material."

Default Journalists

There must be thousands of journalists who have covered these stories about Tobin, Zundel, Bishop Williamson, Irving, Rudolf, etc, over the years. Many of them must have considered writing articles about what these holocaust deniers are saying, just to ridicule them and show the public how stupid holocaust denial is, just to show how evil or insane those deniers are. Many of them must have started writing "Tobin claims the gas chamber seen by visitors to Auschwitz was not built until 1947, which is clearly not true because we know...", and then they do a little research and find out Tobin was right. Hundreds, maybe thousands of journalists must have started such an article and then they have all self-censored, or were censored by their editors.

Journalists must be among the most knowledgable in the world about what's really going on, but they all choose their pay check before the truth.
