Judy
Andreas and Paul Fromm

Paul Fromm’s Ordeal

By Judy Andreas

David Duke’s comments: Judy Andreas is a courageous woman of
Jewish background who has stood up against the expressions of Jewish supremacism
in both Palestine and in America. I trust her sincerity and dedication to truth
and freedom. In this article she writes about my good friend Paul Fromm and his
struggles with the Canadian authorities simply for speaking out for freedom of
speech and defending those who have been jailed and harassed for daring to
criticize Jewish extremism.As you read this article you can’t help but realize
that even our most basic freedoms are under attack in the
West.

The first time I heard Paul Fromm was when he was a guest on Hesham Tillawi’s
show Current Issues TV. Mr. Fromm is with the Canadian Association for Free
Expression and goes to bat for people accused of “thought crimes”. The whole
concept of “thought crimes” boggles my mind. After all, since when are
“thoughts” punishable? Is the government now taking up residence in our minds?
It makes me wonder whether totalitarianism is still creeping or has it begun
galloping. And so, I applauded Mr. Fromm for, what appeared to me, his honorable
mission. On October 21st, I met Paul Fromm in New York City when I attended his
lecture on Marxism. The talk was scholarly and fair. It was after the lecture,
that I learned about Paul Fromm’s ordeal.

I was appalled to learn that on October 9th of this year, Paul Fromm was
detained for over two hours by Canada Customs. The incident occurred as he was
returning from Seattle for a speaking engagement in Vancouver. His luggage and
pockets were searched. The operatives for the Canada Border Services Agency took
a book that was on Mr. Fromm’s person; Race, Intelligence and Bias in Academe.
Apparently, this book fell into the category of “hate propaganda”. In addition,
they cleared and then seized Mr. Fromm’s laptop for further investigation. Fromm
recalls: “When I went through primary inspection, the female agent wrote the
number “1″ on my declaration. I was immediately signaled over after I had picked
up my luggage.”

Paul Fromm described his most unpleasant experience.

“The secondary inspection took place in a long hall with 17 stations with
stainless steel examining tables. I was first dealt with by two East Indian
males agents who refused to give me their names. My briefcase was examined piece
of paper by piece of paper. I objected to the agent reading a note from an
elderly supporter in Edmonton. I objected as this note praising one of our
recent newsletters was utterly outside their mandate.”

It was not drugs. It was not weapons. It was not undeclared merchandise or
currency over $10,000. Their behavior was bullying, humiliating and intrusive.

Next, Paul was escorted by a female agent into a cubicle. He was forced to
empty all his pockets and to turn them inside out. Fromm’s objection to the
prolonged search fell on deaf ears. The agents were not interested in what he
had to say.

Apparently, this is not the first time Mr. Fromm has been harassed at the
border. The last time, his laptop was seized was in Vancouver in August, 2005.

” Afterwards, it had to be debugged from whatever had been placed on it or
happened to it. After a long examination, it was returned to me.” Mr. Fromm
shared.

Interestingly, they had seized his mouse and battery pack.

“Why?” I wondered. Paul remarked “A mouse couldn’t possibly contain hate
propaganda”.

Mr. Fromm’s ordeal lasted a total of more than two hours.

“It is clear that the theft of my laptop, vital to my livelihood is a form of
outright political persecution.”

The following day, Paul Fromm contacted Canada Border Services Agency at
Vancouver Airport to track his stolen goods. I eventually was directed to the
’seizure control office’ with the ominous phone number of 604-666-1811. At
first, and you get used to this with government offices, no one would answer and
I had to leave a message. I was persistent and eventually got a FAX number out
the nameless woman who answered. I pointed out that, once before my laptop had
been seized and my lawyer got it returned within a few days.”

Lawyer Barbara Kulazska wrote on October 11:”It is clear that the seizure of
my client’s laptop was not made on any determination that it contained hate
propaganda. My client informs me that the laptop contained only software that he
uses on a daily basis for writing and some private e-mails. Hate propaganda, by
definition, is a matter that is in the public domain and intended for public
consumption, by sale or distribution. My client’s private e-mails and software
are NOT for sale or for reading by any person other than those private
individuals they are sent to.”

The laptop computer should have been returned immediately. There were no
grounds for its legal detention. Obviously, The Canada Border Services Agency
had more clandestine reasons for Paul Fromm’s detention.

Several years ago, the members of The Canada Border Services Agency were
involved in a complete breech of trust in a narcotics smuggling ring through
Pearson Airport in Toronto. In addition, on a number of occasions, in both
Ontario and British Columbia, agents fled their posts when they learned an armed
American fugitive ‘might’ be headed for the border.

Too add insult to injury, these political police are allowed to operate
anonymously.

“This is a recipe for tyranny” Fromm remarked. “They don’t ’stand on guard’
for Canada. Few visitors are checked by the agents who seem to spend long
periods of time sipping coffee. Liars are greeted and allowed in while political
dissidents have their possessions looted.”

On Monday, Mr. Fromm was contacted by Brian Roos of the Orwellian “prohibited
importations unit” of Customs and ordered to provide all passwords so that
Customs can get around the encryption program that guards his computer: “Please
note that this laptop computer will continue to be held until a thorough review
and determination is completed,” he threatened. Give up the passwords or Customs
steals Mr. Fromm’s computer.

Are you as appalled as I am, dear readers? Are you busily convincing yourself
that the Canada Border Services Agency is making your life more secure or are
you honest enough to admit that something is drastically wrong with this
picture?

I do not know whether you are in agreement with Mr. Fromm’s politics, nor do
I care. What I am addressing is Mr. Fromm’s civil rights. Suspend your belief
systems, distance yourself from your pet prejudices and look at this man. He is
a human being who was guilty of no crime. (unless you feel that disagreeing with
you is a crime) His rights have been violated. Can’t you feel the injustice?

New phrases are being introduced everyday and they are frightening phrases
indeed. People talk about “Hate crimes” and “thought crimes”. On closer
inspection, these phrases merely describe a difference of opinion. Who
determines what is “politically correct”? Who determines which people are going
to be tyrannized? Who determines which people are going to be imprisoned? Who?
If you are feeling complacent because you are in disagreement with Mr. Fromm, I
implore you not to get too relaxed. You are careening down a slippery slope and
your sense of security is a false one. You may very well be the next target.

“Justice is conscience, not a personal conscience but the conscience of the
whole of humanity. Those who clearly recognize the voice of their own conscience
usually recognize also the voice of justice.” Alexander Solzhenitsyn
