Kessler docket Unicorn Riot, Unite The Right On Trial in Charlottesville Former Identity Evropa Organizer Tells Secrets In Trial Deposition Bottom of the Barrel: Charlottesville Trial Defense Attorneys Spread Antisemitism Joshua Smith, one of the attorneys, is representing Matthew Heimbach, Matthew Parrott, and the Traditionalist Worker Party, a neo-nazi group that helped put on Unite the Right in 2017. Calling in remotely to cross-examine a witness on November 11, Smith went on a meandering digression about so-called \u2018ethnostates\u2019. He claimed that expert witness and sociologist, Peter Simi, was \u2018anti-white\u2019 because he wouldn\u2019t address Smith\u2019s view that China and Singapore are \u2018ethnostates\u2019, and falsely said that white people are responsible for most advances in civilization and technology. When trying to confuse jurors about sociological concepts like in-groups and out-groups, Smith asked Simi if Hillary Clinton was white supremacist, and soon after he told Judge Norman Moon that cross-examinations can be \u201cconversations\u201d with witnesses, before sheepishly admitting his scattered tangents were \u201ctrying to keep it lively for everybody.\u201d Another attorney in the Charlottesville lawsuit trial, Cincinnati-based, James E. Kolenich, is an antisemitic far-right Catholic. Kolenich told the Cincinnati Enquirer in 2018 that his motives in this case were simple: \u201cMy willingness to get involved is to oppose Jewish influence in society.\u201d He questioned the accuracy of long-accepted scholarship about the death toll of the Holocaust: \u201cYou can\u2019t call the Jew Holocaust into question, right? [\u2026] Christians really shouldn\u2019t fall for that. The Holocaust is the execution, the crucifixion of Christ. The most important event in human history is His Resurrection, not, this Jewish Holocaust even if it did happen.\u201d Kolenich is part of a Catholic splinter tendency that rejects 20th century reforms barring antisemitic theology, telling the Cincannati Enquirer, \u201cThe last such council [to modify the Catholic faith] was Vatican II or as we call it, Vatican Jew.\u201d He believes all popes since Vatican II are illegitimate \u201canti-popes.\u201d Bryan J.
