Warren Kinsella fires off yet again the only weapon in his armory - demanding to know whether I and Jonathan Kay et al are "proud that the most notorious Holocaust denier on the planet is now repeating their lies".

By "most notorious Holocaust denier", Warren means the British historian David Irving. In fact, "the most notorious Holocaust denier on the planet" is President Ahmadinejad, who denies the last Holocaust even as he urges on the next one. Warren doesn't seem to have much to say on that score, which is a pity. Nobody needs "brave" (Warren's word) men like Richard Warman who dedicate their lives to battling an enemy vanquished 60 years ago. It's easy to pick the right side when it's all settled and retrospective.

But, since "guilt by association" is the only game Warren knows how to play, look at it this way. Yes, David Irving's on my side, and David Icke, the man who believes the Queen is a shape-shifting blood-drinking space lizard. But who's on Warren's side? Mohamed Elmasry, who thinks all Israelis over 18 are a legitimate target for murder, and Khaled Mouammar, who smeared Bob Rae for the crime of having a Jewish wife. Are you "proud" to have the "most notorious" Judeophobes in Canada on your team, Warren?

More to the point, they're the only guys on his team. Over on my side, we have not only David Irving but Keith Martin, Liberal Member of Parliament; The Globe & Mail, Canada's establishment newspaper; two-time Canadian columnist of the year Margaret Wente; the CBC's Rex Murphy; Toronto Star columnist Kelly Toughill; leftie colossus Noam Chomsky; and PEN Canada, an organization headed by former viceregal consort John Ralston Saul and run by the cream of the CanCon literati - Margaret Atwood, Rohinton Mistry, David Cronenberg, Louise Dennys, etc.

Are they all Nazis just because they're on the same side as notorious Jew-haters like David Irving, Ezra Levant, Jonathan Kay and Mark Steyn?

So, just to recap, on Team A: Kinsella, Elmasry, Mouammar; on Team B, Steyn, Levant, Chomsky, PEN Canada, The Globe & Mail, National Post, Toronto Star, Calgary Herald, etc, etc. You do the math.

There is no credible defence of Section 13 - and, for those nancy boys cranking out the flaccid spin in the Justice Department, there is no political downside for any member of the House of Commons in calling for its repeal.

As for Warren ("Swastika John") Kinsella, this is his fight, too, even if he doesn't know it. Section 13 is, at best, superfluous. Which is why, in the last six years, Richard Warman has been the plaintiff on every single case. That in itself makes the case for abolishing it: It is poorly drafted and corruptly administered. There is no other section of Canadian law that exists purely for the benefit of one single citizen. The problem is the Warman racket has now been seized on by Elmasry & Co to advance a far more ambitious agenda.

Join the battle, Warren. Your children will thank you for it.

[UPDATE: Even the Rabble/Babble lefties aren't hot for Section 13. Give it up, Warren. It must be pretty lonely with just you, a couple of Jew-haters, and a shakedown artist.]
