No, he wasn't. He was a criminal and he was called out by the Canadian authorities for having been so.
And I'm not talking about hate crimes either. The guy was in deep. Look over the CHRC files on him; they're available online.

"The principal outlet for Zundel's early activities was his Toronto-based company, Samisdat Publishers, Ltd., which produced Zundel originals (like The Hitler We Loved and Why) and Holocaust-denial classics (including The Hoax of the Twentieth Century, by Arthur Butz; A Straight Look at the Third Reich and The Six Million Swindle, by Austin App; and Auschwitz, Dachau, Buchenwald: The Greatest Fraud in History, by Richard Harwood).[2] In addition, Zundel created two essentially one-man operations: the German-Jewish Historical Commission, which promoted Holocaust denial, and Concerned Parents of German Descent, which disseminated anti-Zionist propaganda to ethnic Germans. Zundel also contributed articles to the now-defunct West Virginia-based neo-Nazi magazine, Liberty Bell, published by George Dietz, and was listed on the editorial staff of White Power Report, another Dietz publication.
Zundel's early writings are a mix of neo-Nazi and white supremacist rhetoric, condemnations of Jews and Zionism, charges that Western media and governments bash Germany and Germans, and Holocaust-denial and conspiracy theory. He was fixated on U.F.O.'s, believing them to be Nazi secret weapons based somewhere in Antarctica. He also promoted a new edition of Henry Ford's The International Jew in Liberty Bell.[3] An article in the January 1977 issue of White Power Report entitled "Our New Emblem: The Best of Two Worlds" (referring to a design that merged a swastika and the American flag) conveys the tone of Zundel's work during this time:
Wherever we look, we White people find ourselves besieged by peoples of other races who compete aggressively against us for jobs, food, housing, education and above all -- power! The Jews are particularly adept at seizing or insinuating themselves into strategic positions in our society where they wield power far beyond the extent of their numbers....Through us, the White majority of Europe and America, the Jewish minority have obtained their advantages, including their Israel, their Federal Reserve, their World Bank and their International Monetary Fund. In exchange for these advantages, the Jews give us -- their White hosts -- wars, depressions, inflation, unemployment, energy shortages, higher and higher taxes and air piracy. Like sheep, they expect us to go down the road with them -- all the way to the kosher slaughterhouse. We White people of America have done nothing so far which would frustrate the Jews' expectations or their ambitions of becoming the world's slavemasters.
Zundel also proselytized among minority European ethnic groups in Canada; in a 1981 flier to "Fellow Canadians of the Ethnic Press," he warned:
You may remember that I had predicted that your own ethnic group and some of your leading citizens would next be the targets of defamation, vilification and distortion and that some of you might be transported to the Soviet Union and/or Israel for torture, trial and execution because the Zionists are striving to equate anti-Communism with Fascism in the public mind. Despite the hateful depiction of Poles and Ukrainians in the Holocaust hate film,[4] you did not heed my warning. And now, the Zionist hate campaign is directed at you! ....
A wedge of lies, half-truths and anti-German propaganda has been driven between us by the Zionist-Communist commissars of disinformation. This propaganda wedge was purposely designed to keep anti-Communist peoples divided one against each other. We must smash this wedge of hate and come together.
Along these lines, Zundel also sent a flier to "Jewish leaders in North America, clergymen, politicians and media representatives" that warned (using the header "Act now -- prevent pogroms later"):"
As a side note, that man went to a military academy, then served in a branch of the Germany military called (wait for it...): the Luftwaffe.
For real.
Leaving aside the "puppet client state" claim, do you accept that the Anglo-American forces had a damn good reason for invading Germany back in 1944-45?
It's nice that you just assume that the confessions were false, just because a guy who didn't see the gas chambers in operation used qualifiers such as "if".
Which was?
Wait. By invading do you mean fire bombing civilians in cities like Dresden?
If they weren't tortured or threatened why would they confess to nonsense?

I was wrong regarding the German Military, thanks for the correction.

Nowhere in your laughable evidence are any writings or quotations attributed to Zundel that are hateful, nor any that encourage using violence against anyone.
That page had a photo of a Luftwaffe Mig-29. I didn't know the modern Germany armed forces had kept East German fighter aircraft. It was simply interesting.Oh yes, the same non-existent Bundeswehr that has not taken part in any operations around the world.
Reading for comprehension and not being such a literalist retard might help more. Indeed, your vaunted physics would strongly suggest that you are reading the quote wrong. Language being what it is, people don't always express themselves very clearly, and this seems like one such case.
The quote doesn't sound to me like the victim was hanging "from the door" by his genitals. It sounds more like they hung up the victim by his arms, and then tied a separate rope. That would be something that would become clear if one compared multiple testimonies, rather than cherrypicking a partial quote from a secondary source paraphrased on an internet forum.
Your vaunted physics can help us rule out the nonsensical reading, and point us in a more likely direction. But no, of course you immediately decide the nonsensical reading must be the right one, since that way you can make fun of victims of Nazi torture. Plus you seem to have a thing about penises, judging by past posts...
You're right. I misread the description of the torture. It probably was a prisoner being hung by his arms or his feet over the door and then using a rope tied to his genitals to swing him back and forth. That would be something very painful but wouldn't necessary cause the genitals to detach. It's plausible that the SS would do something like that. It sounds like something the US might do at Abu Ghraib or Gitmo.
I should know that the most ridiculous interpretation of a survivor testimony isn't always the right one. I stand corrected.

It seems we've established a few things: 1) Deniers, as represented here by Saggy, either don't like to or can't read. Whether or not Saggy believes that the tortures described occurred, his stated reason for doubt -- physics -- is rubbished by the passage in Sofsky, p 227. 2) Deniers quote selectively to be able to dismiss, albeit dismissing caricatures of what they quote. 3) Deniers add in details to their quotes, such as "a pot? of water?" There is no mention of a pot of water in Sofsky on p 227 (or p 240, which doesn't mention genital torture). 3) Deniers get a giggle out of sexual pathology and abuse. "LOL" indeed. 4) Contrary to Clayton Moore's original claim about the absence of sexual abuse in the narrative, sexual pathology on the part of the Nazis is recorded; in fact, according to Saggy a bunch of times on p 240 of Sofsky, which is an incorrect reference but the point stands. 5) The denier gold standard -- argument from incredulity -- is still handy as ever. and in good hands with Saggy.Didn't you know the laws of physics were suspended for the holohoax?
That quote was worth googling, and Sofksy's book is online, and there is another novel technique described ....
. Another technique was to dip the genitals alternately in cold and boiling hot wat... pg. 240
Ouch ! And how does one 'dip' the genitals into a pot? of water? LOL. Sheer idiocy, like most of the first person hoax testimony.
Unfortunately my computer is too slow to bring up the page, but there are a bunch of genital torture techniques described on page 240.
Without a proper citation and quote being supplied, we cannot know for sure, and unfortunately Dogzilla's track record with sources is not the best, even if it's somewhat better than the bunny's.
He jumped up, tapped on the window, and called in German to two boys who were passing outside. "They are from Belsen, and I have told them to come in and meet you," he said, sitting down again. "You know, it's funny, the English press has called all these children who have come over here Belsen children, but many have never been to that camp. Belsen and Buchenwald have taken all the limelight, but there were others far worse, far more horrible, which no one seems to know about. Many of our boys have been in four or five camps, and if you ask them, they say Treblinka, in Poland, was the worst."
May I present Dogzilla's admission that he was wrong (even on a tiny side issue like this) as a model for some of our other deniers to follow more often... Saggy? Clayton? Gene? (Gasp) Bunny?
Agreed. Thank you Dogzilla for manning up on this one. We actually agree on something, as Abu Ghraib came to mind for me also, in thinking about this passage.May I present Dogzilla's admission that he was wrong (even on a tiny side issue like this) as a model for some of our other deniers to follow more often...
