Dr.Michael Files Expose FRAUDSTER Ken McVay-Useful Info for Someone? Part 5/7
 . .

25. Since the filing of this lawsuit Defendant Scott Bradbury
increased his efforts to harass and threaten Plaintiff and to
distribute false and defamatory information about him in an effort to
intimidate Plaintiff. 26.
Defendant has been assisted in this effort by David E. Michael and
Donald Ellis publishing material either under their own names,
pseudonyms, or anonymously.

Mr McVay is here citing material accusing me of, inter alia, criminal
offences.
Let it be placed on record that I have not been found guilty of, or
charged with, any criminal offence at any time in my life. I have not
even been charged with the crimes of which Mr McVay accuses me. McVay
has  claimed that he was merely reporting Mr Edeiken's allegations,
which were  in a court (and thus were protected from libel action).
However, I am advised that in so reporting them, and particularly in
the way in which he has repeatedly posted them to Usenet newsgroups,
Mr McVay is engaging in libel. 

It should be noted, in particular, that Edeiken's lawsuit was thrown
out on appeal. Mr McVay makes no note of the fact that Edeiken had
every reason to tell outright lies about me as I too had defeated him
in a lawsuit that he brought against me in Pennsylvania.

Additional defamatory material is published in another part of Mr
McVay's report of Edeiken's allegations:124

15. Defendant is supported and assisted in his campaigns of harassment
as aforesaid by various accomplices who Plaintiff believes and
therefore avers include, inter alia: 

16. The aforesaid campaigns arise from Defendant;'s pathological
hatred of Jew and/or any person opposed to his pathological hatred and
are conducted maliciously, wantonly, wilfully, and recklessly by the
Defendant and his accomplices and in outrageous disregard of the
rights of his victims with the specific purpose of intimidating and
silencing his opponents, intentionally causing them mental distress,
anguish and grief, and adversely affecting their reputation in the
communities in which they reside.

17. That such purpose and intent of Defendant is known to Defendant's
accomplices who actively support Defendant's goals and purposes and
assist  him in stalking his victims during his campaigns of
harassment, defamation, and intimidation. 

18. Such agreement on the part of his accomplices includes the ethnic
prejudice and hatred that motivates Defendant. 

19. That said accomplices include, inter alia: a. David E. Michael, a
British neo-Nazi and denier of the Holocaust who is an adherent of
and/or organizer for the neo-Nazi British National Party.

As argued above, as well as being quite innocent of the criminal
charges made against me by Mr Edeiken and Mr McVay on Web sites and in
Usenet groups but not to the police, I am neither a 'neo-Nazi' nor a
'denier of the Holocaust'.

5.6.3 Plain incompetence - my biography

For a brief period of time Ken McVay posted on his Nizkor site a small
'biography' of me. Why he should seek to do this is a matter for
speculation.
McVay removed it fairly rapidly and it was not archived by the
Internet Archive Wayback Machine (as at December 2002), so the only
evidence that it ever existed is the exchange that it generated on
Usenet. This consisted of an original postby me:125,  and responses by
Steven Mock,126 Michael Ragland127 and two posters using pseudonyms.

My contribution to this thread highlighted the errors. My post read as
follows:

In his latest (rather pathetic) attempt to intimidate me into silence,
Ken McVay's 'Nizkor' website now posts an interesting little
'biography' of me.
This is at:
http://www.nizkor.org/ftp.cgi/people/ftp.py?people//m/michael.david/references
	<begin quote>
	1981 - Campaign for More Democratic Student Representation
(Age 18)
	Federation of Conservative Students

	1982-1984, Active member of the National Front, reputedly
associated closely with Andrew Brons, who was and still is a
university lecturer. (Brons subsequently left the National Front, and
disassociated himself from far-right activity.)

	1981-1984, philosophy student, St. Andrews University

	1988, graduated Keele University; PhD Clinical Psychology. Not
	believed to be working in the field.
	<end quote>

	Errors include:

* wrong age given in 1981 (I was born in summer 1962) [an interesting
error -- this, together with the other errors about my academic
background, suggests that Ken got this info not from the university
itself (which would either have given accurate information or told him
to piss off) but rather via the good Gerry, who has links with Special
Branch, the executive wing of MI5];

* Brons was not a university lecturer -- he was a polytechnic lecturer
(I wasn't particularly close to him either, although we inevitably
worked together on a couple of minor projects so I can see how that
impression might have arisen);

* wrong dates given for NF membership;

* I was not, in fact, a philosophy student at St Andrews University
from 1981 to 1984;

* I did not graduate from Keele University with a PhD in clinical
psychology.

It appears that Nizkor is about as accurate in its information about
its opponents as it is about the history of World War II.

(For the record, I have a MA(Hons) in psychology and a PhD in the
psychology of instructional text and graphic design. I did indeed also
study philosophy, but not from 1981 to 1984 at St Andrews.)

5.7 The Nizkor funding controversy

There are two elements to this: McVay's relationship with B'nai Brith
Canada and McVay's relationship with the American San Antonio
Foundation.

5.7.1 Nizkor's official position re. B'nai Brith Canada

The following is currently (December 2002) posted on Nizkor's Web
site:128

The Nizkor Project is pleased to announce its cooperative affiliation
with the League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada. The League is
a national volunteer organization dedicated to combatting
antisemitism, racism and bigotry, and to promoting human rights for
all Canadians.

Donors wishing to use their VISA or MASTER CARD for their donation may
call B'nai Brith directly, at 1-416-633-6224, and advise the
receptionist that they wish to make a donation to the Nizkor Project;
If you prefer, you can print this form and send to:

  The Nizkor Project
  c/o The League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada
  15 Hove Street
  Toronto, Ontario M3H 4Y8

After the form it continues:

Please make your donations payable to "The League for Human Rights of
B'nai Brith Canada," and add the words "Nizkor Trust Fund" to the
cheque's memo section. A portion of amounts donated to the Trust Fund
is used to build the Nizkor Endowment Fund. If you prefer that all of
your donation be invested for Nizkor's future needs, please earmark
your cheque or draft with the notation
'For The Nizkor Endowment Fund Only. (All bequests should be to the
'Nizkor Endowment Fund, Care of The League for Human Rights of B'nai
Brith Canada'.)

Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt.

5.7.2 The allegation re. B'nai Brith Canada

Allegations regarding 'problems' concerning the manner in which Nizkor
receives monies from B'nai Brith Canada come thick and fast on Usenet.
They not usually particularly clear. However, the following
allegation, which I can neither verify nor refute, was posted
anonymously to Usenet by someone who evidently does not like Jews but
nevertheless manages to outline the gist of what is perceived to be
the difficulty more clearly than most:129

It works like this:

McVay wants money, and solicits donations for Nizkor.

Problem: Potential donors want a tax receipt, and as McVay's Nizkor is
a *for-profit* enterprise, he is powerless to *legally* issue such a
receipt (which provides a tangible financial benefit to potential
donors).

No receipts = fewer donors, potentially leaving McVay faced with
having to choose between eating macaroni & cheese, and paying his
server fees.
:- (

Luckily for McVay, Jews LOVE the little pro-Jewish holocaust
propaganda machine that their favorite Shabbos Goy has cooked up, as
they stand to benefit when the public sympathizes with the image of
"Jewish Suffering". (Oy Vey!)

The Jewish B'nai Brith Canada knows well the PR value of the
"Holocaust", and wants to see McVay's propaganda machine succeed, so 
they agree to *launder* intended for Nizkor through their "non-profit"
organization, and issue tax receipts, which will give incentive to
McVay's potential donors.

Problem solved: McVay instructs potential donors to make checks
intended for Nizkor payable to a *third party*, B'nai Brith Canada,
and is thus able to promise these potential donors that a tax receipt
will be issued.

Being extremely grateful for McVay's "work", B'nai Brith gladly issues
a tax receipt to the 'donor', and passes the monies on to McVay (less
a 5% handling fee, of course. After all, they're not THAT grateful,
and they ARE Jews, aren't they?). o:-)>

So in the end, everyone wins: McVay gets his 'donation', the 'donor'
gets his tax receipt, and B'nai Brith gets their pro-Jewish holocaust
propaganda (and 5% of the gross). The only one who gets screwed is the
Canadian Taxpayer, because if a 'donor' decides to give McVay's Nizkor
$1,000.00, and is issued a tax receipt for that amount by B'nai Brith,
only $50.00 will actually STAY with the non-profit that issued the
receipt, with the balance of $950.00 going directly to the for-profit
Nizkor (McVay), as per their previous agreement.

To put it another way, the Canadian Taxpayer is screwed out of the tax
revenue on $950.00.

This is money laundering in its purest form.

Is this illegal? Probably. (if it isn't, it should be)
Is it fraudulent? In my opinion, definitely:

1) Because McVay offers tax receipts for 'donations' to Nizkor,
potential donors are likely *led to believe* that Nizkor is a
non-profit enterprise. It is NOT.
Many donors are likely duped into believing they are contributing to a
non-profit organization.

2) B'nai Brith is issuing non-profit tax receipts for monies intended
for Nizkor, and per prior agreement, 95% of these monies will in fact
be passed directly to Nizkor, a for-profit enterprise. Canadian
taxpayers are cheated because tax receipts have been issued by B'nai
Brith which were for 19 times the value of the monies actually
retained by a non-profit enterprise.

Conclusion:

(In my opinion) Ken McVay and B'nai Brith Canada have conspired to
dupe potential donors to Nizkor, and to fraudulently cheat the
Canadian taxpayer.

The same poster ('Waldo') had made a similar allegation on 19 May 2001
in a Usenet post:130

On May 15, 2001, an article entitled "$60 MILLION JEW FRAUD!!!" was
posted to alt.revisionism. Within the article was a news story that
reportedly ran in Montreal Gazette, on Thursday 21 September 2000. The
headline read:

"Huge tax scam exposed
Religious group issued phony receipts for tens of millions"

The story gave details of how a Hasidic Jewish organization known as
Construit Toujours had defrauded the Canadian government by selling
$60 million dollars in fraudulent tax receipts to Jewish individuals
and businesses who donated to the organization.

In an apparent quid pro quo, the non-profit Construit Toujours would
solicit donations from members of the Jewish community, and in turn
issue the donors Canadian tax receipts for five times the actual
amount contributed.

In this win/ win scenario, Construit Toujours benefited from the
receipt of the actual donation, and the donor would benefit by
receiving tax deductions that, according to the article, were worth
more than 2.5 times the amount actually donated.

Everyone benefited - except of course, all other Canadian taxpayers,
who were forced to make up for the tens of millions of dollars worth
of tax deficit caused by this fraud.

This brings to mind the situation currently faced by Nizkor, or "The
Nizkor Project", a Toronto area based website run by Ken McVay.

Nizkor is a pro-Jewish organization which, according to their website
is "Dedicated to the millions of Holocaust victims who suffered and
died at the hands of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi regime".

http://www.nizkor.org

The thrust of Nizkor's mission appears to be keeping the Holocaust at
the forefront of the public mind, and battling so-called "Holocaust
Deniers":
Revisionist historians, or anyone else who would dare publicly
question the generally accepted "facts" of the German holocaust
against European Jewry in the 1930's and 40's.

While the defense of the Holocaust might appear to be a noble cause,
there are serious questions with regard to the source of Nizkor's
funding:
Ken McVay has stated publicly on numerous occasions that Nizkor is
*not* a non-profit organization, yet the organization offers a
Canadian tax receipt to any donor who contributes ten dollars or more
to the Project.

From the Nizkor website:

"Donations over $10.00 will receive a Canadian tax receipt.
[#0235903-43-13]"

http://www.nizkor.org/league-donation.html

How does an organization which admits to being a for-profit enterprise
issue Canadian tax receipts?

It seem that Nizkor has developed a "cooperative affiliation" with the
pro-Jewish "League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada", which is
described by Nizkor as a "national volunteer organization dedicated to
combatting antisemitism, racism and bigotry, and to promoting human
rights for all Canadians".

http://www.bnaibrith.ca/league/league.htm

The League for Human Rights, it appears,*is* listed as a non-profit
organization, and is accepting contributions, and issuing Canadian tax
receipts on the behalf of Nizkor, a for-profit organization.

This raises some very serious questions:

What exactly is the nature of the "affiliation" between Nizkor and the
League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada?

How are the monies received by the League for Human Rights of B'nai
Brith Canada on Nizkor's behalf distributed and accounted for? Is
there a quid pro quo?

Does the League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada retain a
portion of the funds it collects on Nizkor's behalf?

Do Ken McVay and Nizkor pay taxes on monies funneled through the
League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith Canada, and for which Canadian
tax receipts were issued to donors?

Because Canadian tax receipts are offered for monies donated to
Nizkor, donors may be convinced that they are contributing to a
non-profit organization, while Ken McVay has denied Nizkor's
non-profit status on numerous occasions. 
Does this practice not give the appearance of fraud?

On what grounds can Nizkor, a for-profit organization, justify funding
its operations and paying its staff at the expense of the Canadian
taxpayer?
What sets Nizkor apart from any other for-profit enterprises who might
enjoy the benefits of receiving funds that are funneled through a
non-profit organization?

For example, would it not be beneficial to the proprietors and clients
of a Law or Consulting firm to establish an "affiliation" with a
non-profit organization through which all monies could be funneled,
and tax receipts issued?

The non-profit status of organizations are unfortunately abused on a
regular basis. Fox News' Bill O'Reilly recently uncovered allegations
that the Rev. Jesse Jackson used tens of thousands of dollars
collected under Jackson's non-profit Rainbow Push organization to pay
off his mistress who bore their illegitimate child. Thus far, the IRS
has not investigated Jackson.

In the Construit Toujours case, the Jewish organization was stripped
of its right to issue tax receipts, and fined $400,000, while the
"donors" to the organization were to face criminal charges, and would
be forced to repay the taxes they evaded in the fraudulent scheme.

Are Ken McVay/ Nizkor, and the League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith
Canada of guilty of similar fraud or impropriety?

It is painfully obvious that funds earmarked for Ken McVay's
for-profit Nizkor are being funneled through the League for Human
Rights of B'nai Brith Canada, and that Canadian non-profit tax
receipts are being issued for funds that are intended to benefit a
for-profit enterprise.

Both Ken McVay/ Nizkor and the League for Human Rights of B'nai Brith
Canada owe the taxpayers of Canada a complete and detailed explanation
of their handling of the funds earmarked for Nizkor. Furthermore, the
Canadian Federal Revenue Agency should conduct a thorough
investigation of both organizations.

Waldo

Observer at LargeIt is also sometimes pointed out that B'nai Brith
Canada has been associated with financial sleaze. Former national
vice-president of B'Nai Brith Canada, Harry Bloomfield, is a convicted
criminal found guilty of charges related to conspiring to aid crooked
clients in breaching securities regulations and tax laws. (Brent
Mudry, 'Pertacal ex Bloomfield convicted in major offshore
prosecution', Stockwatch 21 November 2001).

5.7.3. McVay's responses to the attacks

McVay's responses to the attacks were dismissive. In a 21 May 2001
Usenet post, for example, he wrote:

'What "for-profit organization" might you be referring to, Bubba? The
Nizkor Project? A website?'131

In another post of the same date, he wrote:132

If you feel that the law is being broken, then your duty is clear -
you must report me, forthwith, to Canada Customs and Revenue Agency.

Do let us know what the result is, won't you, Bubba?

However, McVay asserted that Nizkor and McVay did not issue tax
receipts in the following post:133

Mr. Bradbury's problem seems to be that he believes that Nizkor or Ken
McVay issues tax receipts, in spite of having been told that this is
not true. Mr. Grosvenor has made the same rather stupid claim since
1996,  but has yet to provide the proof... heck, I even told Grosvenor
_exactly_  how to prove his case, and he ran for the hills . . . he's
STILL running
