Media coverage of the David Ahenakew hate trial in Saskatchewan will produce a dramatic Rise in natives hatred of jews and Lead to native people killing police officers on a regular basis Nelson said in a letter faxed to the Winnipeg free press. He later confirmed his views in a Telephone interview. Punishing Ahenakew will Only make him a Martyr and make him appear to be right in his attacks on jews Nelson said. Longtime Bunai brith league for human rights senior counsel David Matas immediately denounced Nelson for spreading anti semitism and demanded Roseau River fire Nelson. Nelson wrote that jews own and control much of Canadas Media Media that ignore the holocaust suffered by native people Nelson said in his letter. Ahenakew a former head of the Assembly of first nations and a member of the order of Canada is charged under the criminal code of Canada with wilful promotion of hatred. In a published interview two years he called jews a disease and suggested the holocaust was justified. Nelsons letter made it Clear that he did not agree with Athena Kewus views. But Nelson said there is a double Standard in the Media that ignores violence against native people. Theress been lots of hate literature against our people and nobody yes done anything its a double Standard Nelson said in an interview. I find it hard to believe Terry Nelson would say something like that aboriginal Council of Winnipeg president Larry Wucherer said last night. Theress some Good relationships we have and were trying to build More relationships. In his letter written on Roseau River Ani Hinabe first nation government Letterhead Nelson wrote that Media coverage of the Ahenakew trial will surely cause natives to hate jews even More then sic some of them do now and what jews fear the most Active promotion of hatred against jews in Canada will Only Rise dramatically amongst natives As they make a Martyr out of an old Man. Natives Are killing Whites now soon they will be killing police officers on a regular basis he wrote. Matas called his remarks totally inappropriate. What he himself is saying is anti semitic. That is a representation of some anti semitic canards that jews control the Media and the prosecution Matas said. This fellow Nelson should resign from his position As chief or be expunged from his position As chief Matas said. However Matas cautioned i want to emphasize How fringe this is. Alan Yusim midwestern regional director for Bunai brith said Terry Nelson would be diminishing his own cause by comparing what happened to first nation people to the holocaust Yusim said. Nelson is no stranger to controversy. In 1998, he travelled to Iraq where he attacked in sanctions against Saddam Hussein and compared the plight of iraqis to aboriginal people in Canada. He was found guilty in 1997 of five counts of illegally keeping gaming devices 47 Slot machines and other gambling equipment. Nelson has blocked railway tracks and threatened to disrupt the 1999 pan am games in Winnipeg. He recently threatened to sue Ottawa Over its refusal to allow conversion of the old Canada packers site into an Urban Reserve. Last june Nelson offered free gasoline to try to entice band members to vote in the Federal election. Nelson singled out the National pos Tcharles Adler of Job whom he described As a jewish immigrant from hungry sic the voice of jews the Asper family and can West global communications for intense criticism.
