On trial at 95: Ursula Haverbeck charged for Holocaust denial in Germany

Ursula Haverbeck, notoriously known for her denial of the Holocaust and continuous charges against her, has been put to trial again at the age of 95 in Hamburg, Germany, for inciting hatred, according to a DW report on Friday.

Haverback has returned to court after previously being sentenced to ten months in prison without parole in 2015. Following the charge, she filed for an appeal and avoided arrest. Haverbeck has been convicted and sentenced to prison on several occasions since 2015 for incidents such as writing articles denying the Holocaust. She has not spent any time in jail due to her repeated appeals.

Those like this person are all over the world.  They feel comfortable in coming out into the light because they have an excuse provided by a hate-filled media complex.  It's good to see them expose themselves.  This old woman was alive and saw the German atrocities first hand.  She'll be meeting her maker soon and I think she's in for a nasty surprise...

The United States of America should adopt a similar law for denying the 2020 election. 

Everybody in America saw the MAGA JAN/6 Insurrectionists atrocities first hand. These election deniers will one day meet their maker and I think they'll be in for a nasty surprise.

From a quick search using the Internet it seems her not spending anytime in prison is a false statement from the Jerusalem Post(not surprising in the least)

From this German link(translated to English): 

Haverbeck was released from the prison in Bielefeld at the end of 2020 and now has to answer to the court again.

Here's her Wikipedia page entry with links to prison time: 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursula_Haverbeck 

In November 2013, at the age of 83, she was sentenced to ten months' imprisonment for Holocaust denial.^[3] Several additional convictions in the fall of 2016 led to further such sentences. She unsuccessfully appealed all sentences, and on 7 May 2018 began to serve her latest two-year jail sentence after being picked up at her home by German police.^[4][5][6] Released from a prison in Bielefeld at the end of 2020, she was quickly charged again and was due to face a new trial in March 2022 and was sentenced to one year in prison.^[7][8]

I don't know about you but I really don't want to see a 95 year old woman expose herself.

Honestly, I can see the case for Holocaust denial, even if it is factually incorrect.  When you wander into the Auschwitz Memorial, you can tell the buildings were made by Russians not Germans, because of the mortar dags.  The camps were hotbeds of disease and often made of timber, not brick, and much of them were demolished by the Soviets, and then rebuilt by the Soviets for propaganda purposes, and it was done badly.  Simply put, you can tell there is something wrong, because the pictures of the site after the war do not match up well with the current site.  Bad archaeology.  Does that mean somehow that the NAZIs didn't execute countless civilians for arbitrary racial reasons during WW2?  It is obvious from other evidence that the NAZIs unequivocally performed these atrocities.

It is sad that a miserable old woman of 95, who was a brainwashed NAZI teen during WW2, still believes the propaganda she was raised on.  That is the pernicious and pervasive power of totalitarian ideology.  These gangsters destroyed her country, and she still supports them.
