I am, as a European, absolutely shocked by European people. I am also shocked by European nationalist people. They have allowed themselves to be so emasculated so silently.

But as a German - and I am German-born - we Germans are condemned once again to be radical revisionists.

I wore bulletproof vests, and my bodyguards had the option of having bulletproof vests - I bought five sets.

You know, many people have called me, friends from the nationalist camp, revisionists and so on, from around the world, have called me over the years - and now again because of what happened - and they are all very cynical about the police and the authorities.

The unfortunate thing is, for the contents of the building I could not get any insurance anywhere in Canada.

Once you are a victim of a bombing, you enter a risk group to which they will not sell insurance.

Had I been in Toronto, I would certainly have been killed in this attack. In the room where I normally sleep, the flames and the smoke and the soot is such that the gases would have killed me.
