Bishop Williamson
Faces a Fourth Trial in Germany for "Holocaust Denial"
He Refuses to Pay the
Fine, but Instead Appeals Again
Traditional
Catholic Bishop Richard Williamson Pauses in Meditation under a Crucifix
As
the German Government Continues to Persecute Him for Exercising His Free
Speech
The Hypocritical Benedict-Ratzinger, Who Defends Others' "Rights of
the Human Person"
Has Not Said One Word in Defense of Williamson's Free
Speech
Yet Williamson's Persistence Seems to Be Winning Out
And
Embarrassing the Liberalist Government of Angela Merkel
The right of free speech that
Benedict-Ratzinger proclaims as a Vatican II "right of the human person" is once
again being assailed as traditional Catholic bishop Richard Williamson faces yet
a fourth trial in Ratzinger's Germany on charges of "holocaust denial." And
Ratzinger, the great Modernist, has raised not one word in defense of
Williamson's human rights. Ratzinger wouldn't even go as far as the atheist
philosopher Voltaire, who proclaimed: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will
defend to the death your right to say it."
In his Bulletin of
February 9, 2013, Williamson explained that he was first tried in 2010. It was a
kangaroo trial, as the Regensburg judge rendered her verdict within a few
minutes in a multipage document that could hardly have been written in that
time. It was at the time reported in the German press that the German
Chancelloress, Angela Merkel, had personally orchestrated the guilty verdict.
Williamson hadn't even denied the World War II "holocaust," but simply
questioned a point of detail on the controverted issue as a very small part of
an interview for Swedish Public Television.
In a second trial, a higher
court in Nuremberg overturned the verdict on appeal and required the state to
pay all of Williamson's legal expenses. But in a third trial, the local
Regensburg judge, the district where Benedict-Ratzinger has his home, again
convicted Williamson on January 16, 2013. Friends of Bishop Williamson have
offered to pay his fine, now reduced to 2,400 U.S. dollars, but Williamson would
not capitulate to the corrupt verdict because "much more than just money is at
stake." He has appealed again for a fourth trial, quoting Our Lord's
powerful words: "For this was I born, and for this came I into the world; that I
should give testimony to the truth" (John 18:37/DRV).
What else could
a true Catholic bishop do?
