Holocaust denier to face charges
PETER KOHNHOLOCAUST-DENIER Dr Frederick Toben will likely be charged with contempt of court later this week for continuing to deny the Holocaust on his Adelaide Institute website.
The AJN understands Dr Toben returned to Australia this week from Iran, where he attended a state-sponsored conference on Holocaust denial late last month. The conference had the support of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has called for Israel’s destruction.

Second Aussie joins Holocaust denial conference
Pia Akerman and Richard Sproull
December 14, 2006AN electrical engineer who works for federal agency Airservices Australia has told a revisionist Holocaust conference in Iran there were no mass killings at Treblinka, one of the Nazis’ most notorious concentration camps.
Richard Krege, who is on annual leave from the Canberra-based agency, said that only 5000 people died at Treblinka, from disease, and used his own model of the concentration camp to illustrate his claims.Most historians believe that at least 800,000 prisoners were murdered in the camp, which was in Poland during World War II.

Holocaust impossible, says Aussie in Tehran
Pia Akerman
December 12, 2006FREDERICK Toben - the retired Adelaide high school teacher who denies the Holocaust took place - has dismissed as “mere puffery” historical evidence proving mass killings of Jews by the Nazis’ deadly Zyklon-B gas during a speech in Tehran last night.
In his presentation, obtained by The Australian and denounced as obscene anti-Semitism by Jewish leaders, Dr Toben called “claims made by ‘Holocaust’ believers” about the mass gassings and burnings a “physical impossibility”. Dr Toben is an amateur historian who set up the Adelaide Institute in 1994 to pursue his cause. He spent seven months in a German prison in 1999 for inciting racism.
He is a keynote speaker at a two-day conference in Iran, at the invitation of the Iranian Government, which has drawn speakers from around the world including David Duke, a former imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, and French professor Robert Faurisson, who denies the existence of Nazi gas chambers.

Race-hate site defies court
December 03, 2006A RACE-HATE website operating from Adelaide has sparked a furious reaction from Australia’s top Jewish body.
The Executive Council of Australian Jewry is considering further legal action against Dr Fredrick Toben, 62, from Wattle Park, who runs the Adelaide Institute website.
Dr Toben was the subject of a Federal Court directive in 2002 preventing the publication of material that vilified Jews.
Despite the court ordering him to remove such material from his website, anti-Jewish articles are still accessible from the site.
