David Irving released from Austrian prison
British author (whose name -- thanks to the political correct elements of our civilization! -- relentlessely precedes the "holocaust-denier" adjective) David Irving today welcomed his release from an Austrian prison after serving more than a year following his conviction on charges of denying the Holocaust and said he was "fit and well". He said he would be calling for an academic boycott of German and Austrian historians until their governments stopped putting historians in prison. He was released after Vienna's highest court granted his appeal and ruled to convert two-thirds of his three-year sentence into probation. -- Irving, 68, was sentenced in February under a 1992 law which applies to "whoever denies, grossly plays down, approves or tries to excuse the National Socialist genocide or other National Socialist crimes against humanity in a print publication, in broadcast or other media". The law calls for a prison term of up to 10 years.
