Summary: Zundel does have support

Zundel gets support from the whole peculiar range of neo-Nazi,
white power and anti-semitic groups.  Paul Bilodeau, who covered
the whole trial, had a whole page in the May 12 Star on page A20
(same issue as the one which reported the conviction) in which
he reported on some of the undercurrents of the trial.  It drew
out some very warped people in support of Zundel.  I called
Bilodeau yesterday (mostly to compliment him on his reporting
throughout), and he told me he's never been so close to raw
hatred and blind antisemitism as he has through this trial.
He found it very disturbing.
