New York, October 25, 2002

David Irving comments:

ROBERT Maxwell was the original publisher paying for Deborah Lipstadt's slime-bucket book, Denying the Holocaust. His stolen millions helped bankroll a project chaired by Mrs Maxwell at Oxford University between July 10 and 14, 1988: A symposium on the Holocaust, entitled "Remembering for the Future." He was notorious for describing in his memoirs with glee how as Captain Jan Hoch (his real name) he had gunned down German soldiers after they had formally surrendered. he and his pals at the Mossad deserved eachother: a real gang of thieves.

Maxwell killed by The Mossad: New Book

October 25, 2002 -- British media tycoon Robert Maxwell was murdered by the Israeli secret services, according to a new book, which also alleges the flamboyant millionaire was an Israeli spy and had links to organized crime in Eastern Europe.

Robert Maxwell, Israel's Superspy, to be published in December by Carroll and Graf, claims Mossad decided to get rid of Maxwell because he was threatening to expose his knowledge of Israeli secrets unless he received Israeli help in propping up his failing businesses.

Maxwell's sudden death at sea in November 1991 off the Canary Islands brought about the collapse of his worldwide publishing empire and triggered theories ranging from suicide, murder or accident.

Maxwell -- who owned the Daily News at the time -- disappeared overboard just as the complex web of financial deals keeping his businesses afloat was beginning to unravel and a few weeks after U.S. investigative journalist Seymour Hersh published a book claiming Maxwell had close ties with the Israeli secret services.

The new book, by British thriller writer Gordon Thomas and Irish journalist Martin Dillon, is based on interviews with former Mossad agents and chiefs.

Thomas and Dillon claim Maxwell was killed by Mossad agents who boarded his private yacht under cover of darkness and plunged a needle filled with a lethal nerve agent into Maxwell's neck. They then lowered his body into the sea.
