So this is how it works
Edited on Wed Jan-17-07 11:09 PM by mirandapriestly
So, I have never really paid much attention to Eric Hufschmid, although I think his video is one of the first I saw and I take it he is in the 911Mysteries video since the "debunkers" "expose" him on their site. So I went snooping around a little. Is Eric Hufschmid really a holocaust denier? I wondered. I went to his (propaganda) site and it looked like he was calling himself a "holocaust truth seeker". I immediately understood what was going on . He wants us to associate the term "truth seeker" with things like the holocaust, so as to discredit the term (which I hate,btw) and to make 911 dissenters look "kooky". Then I saw something else interesting. A claim that Eric Hufschmid's half-sister was married to Rupert Murdoch's son, James Murdoch who owns British Sky Broadcasting.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Murdoch_%28media_executive%29
I think Rupert Murdoch's mom is Jewish, or something, do you really think Hufschmid is a "holocaust denier"? I don't. I think it is a blatant attempt to discredit 9-11 dissenters. But wait there's more...
I remember naively thinking it was "cool" that James Brolin announced the web page of 911Mysteries on television on The View in front of a fair size audience. But afterward, I remember seeing a connection to him and some entertainment company that was suspect, I don't remember the details, but now I get it:
*911Mysteries comes out with quite a few good facts and gets quite a few viewers on the internet, especially after James Brolin announced it on tv.

*Eric Hufschmid, strangely, begins a "holocaust truth seekers" section on his web page.

*A propaganda site called Screw 911 Mysteries comes out pointing out that Eric Hufschmid, from 911 mysteries is a holocaust denier.

*So....all those nice ladies watching The View go on and do a search for "911 Mysteries" and what do they come up with? Screw 911 Mysteries,! which immediately starts talking about the crazy holocaust denier juxtaposed with the high and mighty NIST (not mentioning that their findings are biased and that the head was appointed by Bush), and voila !

*all those people are so appalled by the holocaust denier kook. they dismiss the whole thing.

1. and David Shayler..
Was on the British Sky News which I assume is owned by Murdoch's Sky Broadcasting. I was kind of suspect of him because he was repeating a lot of internet half truths (Marvin Bush was the head of security, bla bla bla...), so I'll have to see what they were up to on that one.

3. Mr. Hufschmid
Has made numerous statements which echo anti-Semitic memes including claims "Jews own the media".

In addition to his outright statements suggesting no one was killed in the "camps", he twists this around to suggest that it was the Jews who did the killing and are the ones who have something to hide.

If that were enough, his extremely vocal support of David Irving, a convicted Holocaust Denier and anti-Semite, claiming he was conspiratorially setup by Zionists is not only bigoted but bizarre in that he also claims Ernst Zundel and several of Willis Carto's anti-Semitic organizations are part of this same Zionist conspiracy.

He also has made statements claiming the Jews have somehow obtained control over the Papacy.

As such, Mr. Hufschmid is NOT someone I would spend any time trying to defend.
