Mailed to hlist October 21, 1993: Archive/File: orgs/australian/nexus.magazine nexus.inquiry Last-Modified: 1993/10/21 XREF: INDEX IRVING A message recently arrived which questioned me as to whether or not my archives contained any information about possible links between neo-Nazi organizations and "New Age" philosophy. Frankly, although I know very little about "New Age" thinking, everything I have run across has been more or less positive - certainly not the sort of material I would even remotely connect with Nazi political philosophy (if indeed that is the correct description). I responded with a request for more specific information, which led to the following material regarding NEXUS, an Australian magazine which is also published and distributed in the United States. Whether or not NEXUS is representative of "New Age" views I cannot say, but the material related to Hitler apologist David Irving was disturbingly familiar, echoing as it did the Willis Carto - IHR Holocaust denial theme. I would like to obtain more information about NEXUS, and its editorial philosophy. Here is the Irving material - comments in [brackets] are some of those which accompanied the data below. Comments in {curly brackets} are mine....

["Global News", Nexus 2/14:] Reviews, p. 60: "Churchill's War", David Irving: "Published by: Veritas Publishing Company, Cranbrook, W.A. 6321 Price: $40.00 postpaid, from New Dawn International News Service, GPO Box 3126FF, Melbourne 3001" "What an amazing book! What an amazing author! So many university academics go and read twelve or so books on a subject and then write book number thirteen, but not David Irving. Ranked as Britain's top historian, David irving is the only person to have gone through the personal diaries of key generals and power figures of World War II. {One can only wonder where NEXUS discovered Irving's ranking as "Britain's top historian," given his utter rejection by his British peers, not to mention leading scholastic historians world-wide.} His thoroughness and attention to detail has revealed many aspects of WWII that are obvioulsy not popular - _Churchill's_ _War_ is testimony to that. Churchill is portrayed by our history books as a noble, brave and determined individual caring for the British empire. Unfortunately his personal diaries, and the personal diaries of people in power he corresponded with, do not mirror this image. We thoroughly recommend any serious researcher of WWII history to obtain and read all of David Irving's excellent books." "Hitler's War by David Irving Published by Focal Point, UK, 1991 ISBN 1 872187 10 8 RRP: $60.00, 857 pages, hard cover Available: Veritas Publishing Co Pty Ltd, PO Box 42, Cranbrook, WA 6321 (add $5.00 postage when ordering)." [They do include the details with almost all their book reviews. Seems they review books in exchange for advertising. Yes, there is a related ad in the mag] "In some countries this book is classed as a textbook and is compulsory reading, while other countries are trying to ban it. {I'd like to know which countries use "Hitler's War" as compulsory reading!} The book gives a very different picture of Hitler and WWII, from [sic] that of the Hollywood movies. It does not apologise for Hitler or his actions; it merely reports ont he facts, and in many cases the author digs up facts which are not popular with the establishment. {They are not popular because Irving conveniently and dishonestly ignores any such facts which do not support his thesis, as anyone reading Dawidowicz or Ja"ckel will immediately attest.} It is said that the winners write the history books, and when one tries to research WWII and its key players, there is little to choose from in terms of unbiased research or writings - except for David Irving. His research is meticulous and infallible. {After Dawidowicz finished her work regarding Irving's blatent manipulation of the Himmler memo, it is impossible to understand how anyone could consider Irving's work "unbiased!"} The rare documents, manu- scripts and photographs he has unearthed through his painstaking endeavours are accessible to any other researcher. There you have it. If you ever wanted an unbiased history of World War II, _Hitler's War_ is a must-read book."

Phone: (098) 268 055. Fax: (098) 268 051" "This is the video they tried to ban. When you see it, you'll see why. I think it is outrageous that a man is banned from entering a country because of his views of history. It is even more outrageous when that particular man is one of the western world's most acclaimed and respected researchers. {There it is again - asserting Irving's status as something he most certainly is not - acclaimed and respected. Do we begin to wonder about a drift towards the IHR here?} People might disagree with what he says, and they are entitled to do so, but one thing stands out irrefutably: his research is impeccable, and none dare challenge him on it. instead, we get a lot of emotional rhethoric from critics who try to prevent others from gleaning another point of view. As you now, unless you were on the Moon at the time, David Irving was banned from entering Australia earlier this year as a result of pressure from certain minority groups. {"Certain minority groups" indeed.} The tour organisers then decided to arrange video showings of one of Mr Irving's talks. These, too, came under intimidation, and most were cancelled due to lack of available venues. This particular video lecture by David irving deals with that most unsavoury chapter of WWII, "the Holocaust". What can one say? - the information in this video is worth considering. I know many people like me who became more suspicious as a result of the attempts to gag David Irving. It is high time to publicly debate some of the points raised in this video." [Oh, and a small ad:] "David Irving - Why was he banned? Freedon of Speech vs. Censorship. Holocaust or Holohoax. The case of the Historical Revisionists find out the truth. Send $5 for information pack and booklist to PO Box 66, Fortitude Valley, QLD 4006." =30= There you have it, folks. I have rather a lot more from NEXUS, but most isn't relevent, except to demonstrate that the magazine represents or publishes some familiar ideas - more on these later. (First, I'd like to formulate an article for the net, based on what you see above, which requests more information regarding NEXUS, and which provides counterpoint to the Irving "reviews." Yes, we have all that Irving stuff... that's not what I mean - I mean how to express those comments as succinctly as possible, while including references to the archives. Have at it :-) PS - Did you notice that our friend Boris is back?

Editorial, Nexus 2/15 (Aug/Sept 1993): "(...) I mentioned in my last editorial that I was going to visit America to respond to the growing demand for NEXUS 'up top'. Well, the visit was successful, and we are now sharing warehouse space with that renegade researcher, David Hatcher Childress, in a little country town in the American Midwest. As a result of that visit, we are now printing NEXUS in the USA as well as Australia." They usually seem to print all sorts of stuff about "Free energy machines" (The Perpetuum Mobile); new-age-cures for AIDS or cancer, crop circles, UFOs, the New World Order... and so on.

They must be very selectively targetting gullible fools; the "Right-wing lunatic fringe"....) Other articles in this number (2/14): Articles about: The USA creating bloodthirsty regimes in the worls, citing Liberia and Kuwait; "Pasteur fabricated his vaccination results"; "Mind Control on psychiatric patients", and: "The council on foreign relations The council on foreign relations was incorporated on 29 July 1921, in New York, (...). Many of the key players figure prominently in other secret, "internationalist" organisations such as the Bilderbergers, and the more recent Trilateral Commission, established as a CFR-offshoot by David Rockefeller nd Zbigniew Brzezinski in 1972. (...) The CFR's goal, according to conservative commentators in particular, is to establish a "One World Order" or a "New World Government". A prime objective of the NWO is believed to be the redistributiomn of the world's wealth among all nations - and concomitant removal of many basic freedoms. Below is a list of people placed in major media organisations, who are also mmbers of the Council on Foreign Relations or Trilateral Commission. (Source: F.R.E.E., PO Box 33339, Kerrville, Texas 78029 USA.)" The list is a list of names, WASP and Jewish, in various magazines and other media. Almost half the names sound vaguely jewish. (Jewish names are recognizable to a german speaker. I think it was Mary Therese who ordered that every citizen of Austria must have a last name, and that the government officials could assign names at will. Many of those officials gave jews very obviously made-up names, often very cruel ones. That true? I heard it from my father, I think.) Also on the "Global News" thing: "Does HIV cause AIDS", "Gays not gay over statistics" (Which is very homophobic), and an article about Waco. Longer articles are about crop circles, dinosaurs, about how major US companies traded with the Nazis in WWII, fraud in the drug industry, vaccinations, warer, New World Order, "alternative technologies" and other brain-damaged New-Age crap. hope this helps. it's interesting, but a bit depressing. dave ---------------------------------------------------------------- dskreine@metz.une.edu.au *** THIS ADDRESS EXPIRES 25.
