According to police, the suspect accosted Wiesel in the hotel elevator at around 6:30 p.m., saying he wanted to interview him. Wiesel said he would do the interview in the lobby. That&#8217;s when the attacker pulled him out of the elevator, police reported.<\/p>\n<p>In a posting Tuesday on the anti-Zionist Web site ZioPedia, a writer using the name Eric Hunt takes credit for the attack: &#8220;After ensuring no women would be traumatized by what I had to do (I had been trailing Wiesel for weeks), I stopped the elevator at the sixth floor. I pulled Wiesel out of the elevator. I said I wanted to interview him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wiesel grabbed at his chest and yelled for help, according to the posting. &#8220;I told him, &#8216;Why don&#8217;t you want people to know the truth?&#8217; His expression changed, and he began screaming again. \u2026&#8221; the posting reads. Police reported that the suspect tried to force Wiesel into one of the rooms, but ran away when Wiesel started yelling.<\/p>\n<p>The online posting states that the writer intended to &#8220;bring Wiesel to my hotel room where he would truthfully answer my questions regarding the fact that his non-fiction Holocaust memoir, Night, is almost entirely fictitious.&#8221;\u009d Later in the posting, the Holocaust is portrayed as a &#8220;myth.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The ZioPedia posting referred to in the <em>Examiner<\/em> article, titled <a title=\"Elie Wiesel and the 'Big Lie'\" href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20070212162653\/http:\/\/www.ziopedia.org\/content\/view\/3217\/58\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Elie Wiesel and the &#8216;Big Lie&#8217;,&#8221;<\/a> concludes with the bizarre demand that Wiesel submit to a lie detector test:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I demand that &#8220;Holocaust Survivor&#8221; Elie Wiesel submit to a videotaped polygraph test using questions prepared by French Professor Faurisson, who was nearly beaten to death by the Jewish mafia. Wiesel has most likely fled to the Zionist entity, their criminal command center for their &#8220;New World Order&#8221; in the geographical center of north, south, east, and west. Every hour Wiesel refuses to take a lie detector test is the hour it takes to read &#8220;Night.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Every adult should walk into any public high school and demand to read a copy of the book their children are being brainwashed with. Read it and decide for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Any excuse Wiesel creates for refusing to take a lie detector test should be taken as an admission of guilt.<\/p>\n<p>Almost the entirety of white people are completely brainwashed. Even if you believe six million Jews were thrown alive into ovens and gassed in showers by Germans &#8220;just following orders&#8221;, you should demand Wiesel submit to a lie detector test.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>How ironic that one who denies the well-documented Nazi genocide of European Jews so readily credits the lie detector, a <a title=\"Forensic 'Lie Detection': Procedures Without Scientific Basis\" href=\"https:\/\/antipolygraph.org\/articles\/article-018.shtml\">bogus technology<\/a> roundly rejected by the scientific community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The man who allegedly assaulted Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace laureate Elie Wiesel in a San Francisco hotel elevator is demanding that the latter submit to a polygraph test.
