These are methods that are being used now about people in the late 1990's and that you might imagine that you were back in the 1930's that you were living in the era of Mussolini, and the spoonful of caster oil, or the concentration camp or the Fascist methods, methods of the Nazis. 
If I tell you that, six months ago, organised gangs of people were going around the leading bookshop chains in the Midlands of Britain smashing the plate glass windows of book stores like Waterstones or Dillons or W. H. Smith's, and then writing letters to them the next day on the stationery of the local Jewish organisation saying that "we are terribly sorry that your windows got smashed, it's probably because of the book by David Irving that you are stocking and we recommend you stop stocking that book and then probably your windows won't get smashed in anymore". The letters had obviously been drafted by lawyers because there was no way that the police can have at the organisations themselves. 
I only know about this campaign that went on in Britain last summer because the local newspapers, the provincial newspapers, Norwich, Nottingham, Newcastle, reported this -- not the national newspapers you notice. It's a telling comment on the cowardice of the national press if in many matters of great national importance they show less courage than the provincial editors do. 
Window smashing. Not just window smashing, but book burning. In Southern England there is a bookshop chain called Volume One. The Volume One book shops in Southampton, in Portsmouth, in Southsea, all the way along the southern Coast of England, they were subjected to visits by the same gangs, the same thugs, even, in one bookshop the manager was actually required to take my books off his shelves and burn them. 
Now, what is book burning about, for God's sake? Book burning, it's like the Nazis, it's like 1933 all over again, they're using the methods of the Nazis in order to try to preserve their inventions. 
--David Irving (1993)
