Ambiguous Zola Quote
"If you shut up the truth and bury it under the ground, it will but grow, and gather to itself such explosive power that the day it bursts through, it will blow up everything in its way."
- Emile Zola
By the way, modern scholars are slowing coming around to the view that Dreyfus was at least partially guilty.

I looked at that case for a doctoral dissertation once, and decided not to touch it because even a hundred years later, it's still toxic academically. You WILL toe the orthodox line on Dreyfus or you will be destroyed and consigned to working in a car wash or a Burger King, no middle ground.
Two things: according to the evidence, there was never any reason why Dreyfus and Esterhazy couldn't have been in it together, and second, ESTERHAZY WAS A JEW HIMSELF, albeit a non-practicing one. I am astounded that this little tidbit of information never got any kind of serious mention in all the books on The Affair.
The so-called "bordereau" that the Jewish historians make such a to-do over was always a red herring. What really gave the game away was Dreyfus's "financials" as they would be called today. He conveyed a lot of money he got from espionage activities to his brother which was used to purchase property all over France, a 19th century form of money laundering.
Harold, did you have a big write-up on the Dreyfus Case somewhere? You should re-post it. I've always figured he probably WAS guilty, considering all the hubbub the Jews made about it.
Guilty or not, the Dreyfus affair was the first serious flexing of Zionist muscle in modern history, in an effort to pervert the course of a Gentile legal proceeding, and a successful one, so it is a historic turning pont in the history of Western man.
