David Irving: "Ich komme wieder" (I shall return). In German.
with many documents and film records as illustrations
On January 13, 1993 the German courts fined British historian David Irving thirty thousand deutschmarks, around 15,000 dollars, for stating that the gas chamber shown to tourists at Auschwitz is a post-war fake. (Since then, the Polish authorities have admitted that the building was erected in 1948.)
That was just the start of Germany’s persecution of the historian. On July 1, 1993, the German ministry of the interior banned him from its archives, “in the interests of the German people.” On November 13, 1993, the Munich political police handed him an expulsion order, forbidding him to return to German territory in perpetuity – a violation of European law. It seemed to bring to an end a thirty-year career of publishing best-sellers in Germany’s leading publishing houses and journals, including Stern, Die Welt, and Der Spiegel – the end of Free Speech in Germany. In this ninety-minute illustrated narrative of his life and struggle, historian David Irving, vows: “I shall return.”
-- In German. A printed English text is available.
